Inflow rules
Lee's Summit Water Utilities lists downspouts as a common source of inflow into the sanitary sewer, so a downspout that dumps into a sewer connection is worth correcting.
Repair first
We try repair before replacement, and we say so when a run is out of road.
Resealing joints, resetting hangers, correcting pitch and swapping a damaged section solve plenty of problems. When a run has failed in several places at once, a replacement is simply the right call, and we will tell you plainly which one you have.
What comes off the house
If you want to replace gutters in Lee's Summit, the first step is removing the old system, whether it is plastic, galvanized, sectional or nailed to the fascia. Then we put up seamless aluminum in .032 gauge with 6 inch gutters and 3x4 downspouts. Each run is formed on site to the length of the roof edge.
Lee's Summit's lake neighborhoods began in the 1970s. Lakewood grew up around reservoirs created in 1976, and the Raintree Lake reservoir dates to that decade as well, so these are the blocks where we would expect to meet older sectional or galvanized runs.
Gutter Replacement in Lee's Summit
Gutter replacement in Lee’s Summit involves working on some of the tallest residential rooflines in the KC metro, where roof area demands heavier-gauge material and more downspout capacity than a standard ranch home requires. Our seamless gutter installation forms continuous runs on site, then engineers downspout placement around lakeside lots where soft ground near the water can be damaged by concentrated gutter discharge. The result is a complete system built for your actual home.
Hail season and the gutter line
Storm history is local, and it is public.
- 01
114 reports in ten years
NOAA's Storm Prediction Center logged 114 hail reports of 1 inch or larger in Jackson County from 2016 through 2025, on 29 separate storm days. That is a pattern, not a freak year.
- 02
Six stones of 2 inches or more
The largest was 3 inches on May 26, 2016. We make no hail-proof claim for any gutter, but after a storm day we will tell you which sections are dented, loose or out of pitch.
- 03
Replace on evidence
A dent does not always mean failure. We look at pitch, seams and hangers before recommending anything.
Replacement is the time to fix where the water goes
An old downspout often empties wherever it ended up, so the swap is a good moment to look at the discharge.
Three feet out
The city asks for a splash block that drains at least three feet from the foundation, and that is the baseline we plan to.
Permits
Tile, wet basins and downspout gardens are allowed uses, and some drainage work needs a permit from Codes Administration, so the city has the final say there.

What homeowners say
Well priced, reliable, responsible with property, and a job well done. We get a lot of acorns in one upper gutter. Gutter guys took care of everything and all gutters are completely clear and fully efficient. Second time we have had Nathan come out for service/cleaning. Thank you so much and see you again in the future!
I had one seriously clogged gutter that I could not clear myself. I called the Gutter Guys, and they had Devon come out at a time convenient for me. He cleared and adjusted to prevent further issues. Devon is very pleasant person to talk to, he explains everything well.
Pete from The Gutter Guys did an awesome job on my Gutter cleaning. He explained everything before hand and took pictures of the gutters after cleaning. Very happy with the job. I will definitely be using them for all future cleanings. I also would like to add that he was very friendly and polite which is another bonus.
Gutter replacement questions in Lee's Summit
Should I replace my gutters after hail in Lee's Summit?
Not automatically. We check pitch, seams and hangers first, and replace when the damage cannot be fixed with a repair. If the system is dented but draining and sound, you may not need a new one yet.
How do I know if I need a gutter replacement company or just a repair?
Sagging away from the fascia, split seams, plastic or nailed sections and repeated leaks in the same place all point toward replacement. A single loose hanger or a bad joint is a repair job. A gutter replacement company in Lee's Summit should be willing to say which is which.
Can I add guards when you replace my gutters?
Yes, and it is the easy time to do it, since the guard sits under the first course of shingles and fastens to the front lip of the new gutter. See gutter guards in Lee's Summit for how the systems differ.
Do you remove the old gutters and downspouts?
Yes. Removing the old plastic, galvanized, sectional or nailed system is part of a replacement, and it is where we see what condition the roof edge is really in.
