Many short runs, each measured
Rolling aluminum on site means a porch roof and a long gable edge each get exactly the length they need.
A historic district with rooflines of its own
The Northville Historic District holds 73 contributing structures, mostly Gothic Revival houses built between 1860 and 1880, and many homes near downtown are Queen Anne in style. Gabled houses mean many short roof edges, inside corners and porch roofs, each of which needs its own run measured on the spot.
Farther out the story changes. The median home in the city was built in 1968, yet 23 percent date from 1939 or earlier, so one street can hold gutters sixty years apart in age.
Seamless gutter installation in Northville, suited to a mixed-age city
Rain gutter installation in Northville comes down to these choices, and why we make them.
Hangers you do not see
Internally hidden brackets hold the gutter from inside, so a detailed front face is not interrupted by nailheads.
6 inch gutters and 3x4 downspouts
Recommended over 5 inch and 2x3 so a steep roof plane can empty quickly in a storm.
.032 gauge aluminum
The stock is rolled on the driveway, so there are no shipped lengths waiting on a truck.
Across Eight Mile
Oakland County above the road, Wayne County below it, the same crew on both sides.
Northville Township wraps around the south edge of the independent city. Whichever side you live on, we measure, form and hang the system the same way.
What to have ready for the estimate
A few details help us measure faster:
- Any addition, porch roof or bay that needs its own run.
- The places downspouts could exit, such as the lawn or a storm drain.
- Whether your address falls inside the historic district boundaries. Tell us when you call.
- Whether you want guards fitted at the same time as the new gutters.
Water that starts in Northville
The Middle Rouge begins here, so drainage is a local subject.
- 01
Where the Rouge forms
The Middle Rouge River forms in Northville where the Walled Lake branch and the Johnson Drain meet, so downspouts that finish near low ground deserve thought.
- 02
Hines Park starts at Seven Mile
The park is a floodplain for the Middle Rouge. A new system's outlets should send roof water away from the house, not toward it.

What homeowners say
They cleaned my gutters and installed leaf guards, I waited for a good rain and checked the flow and everything looks great. Highly recommended.
Experience was exceptional. Nathan explained the whole process, from the initial estimate through the installation. He didn’t try to sell a bunch of extras or talk over my head. He used concise layman’s terminology. The installation (even with rain delays). Went well. Truly an excellent experience that didn’t cost the church its foundation. Thank you for your work
The Gutter Guys did a great job installing my new gutters. Nathan is a great guy, personable and professional. The price was very competitive, and the job was done on schedule. The Guys are detail oriented, excellent fit and finish. My house looks great! Highly recommended!
Gutter installation questions in Northville
Can you install gutters on a new addition in Northville?
Yes. Additions and new roof edges are part of our installation work. We measure the new edge, form the gutter to its length and tie the downspout into a sensible exit.
Will new seamless gutters suit a house with lots of corners?
A seamless run is rolled per edge, so the joints sit at the corners and downspout openings rather than along the length. On a gabled house that keeps the line neat.
Do I need new downspouts with new gutters in Northville?
We recommend 3x4 downspouts over 2x3, and a new system is sized as a whole so the gutter and the outlet match. Details come at the estimate.
What happens if the old gutters come off first?
That is replacement rather than new work, and we handle both. Our page on gutter replacement in Northville explains how removal and the new install fit together.
