Craftsman bungalow, Larch Street ·
A Craftsman bungalow, re-guttered from end to end
Leaking sectional gutters on a blue Craftsman, overflowing over the porch every storm. Down they came, and up went forest-green seamless gutters with downspouts big enough for the steep roof.

The old gutters were sectional, with a seam every ten feet, and every seam dripped. Over the porch the water came straight over the front in a heavy rain, and two fascia boards behind it had gone soft.
We had the old gutters down by nine, replaced the two fascia boards and primed them, and rolled seven runs of six-inch gutter in the van in the driveway. By early afternoon they were hung on hidden hangers every two feet and pitched to six new downspouts, two of them piped under the lawn to the street drain. The hose test ran clean at every outlet before four.
