Pekin gutter guards
Pekin is a smaller stop for our Charlestown crew. Pekin's short main street along State Road 60 is the landmark we use, and wind down the highway corridor and ice in the low additions
small-town gables, some with additions that changed the roof plane in the 1980s
Guards for the debris Pekin actually drops
wind down the highway corridor and ice in the low additions Guards are not a single product. A micromesh that works under maples can be wrong under pine or seed-heavy trees, and small-town gables, some with additions that changed the roof plane in the 1980s.
The original roof and the addition roof meet at a dead valley nobody relined Overflow from packed gutters is often the stain people think is a shingle leak. We clean and re-pitch before we cover a gutter that already sits wrong.
Pekin additions are the leak. The front gable can be fine while the tie-in over the laundry room is not. We photo that joint first.
Seamless size comes first
Five-inch K-style is the usual residential size. Six-inch is what we recommend when the roof area dumping into one downspout is too much for five. Pekin's short main street along State Road 60 does not change the math. The roof area does.
