Gutter Installation Before & After Photos

This customer was tired of always having to clean her gutters out of leaves and twigs that washed into the gutters. 

We installed our Raindrop gutter covers to help keep her gutters free from clogs. 

Diane's discharge lines (from her sump system) were obnoxiously long, above ground, AND ran right in front of her front steps. Not only did it look odd, but it was also a significant tripping hazard. On top of that, she also had a downspout discharging directly onto her sidewalk, which would create an ice sheet that would get slick in the winter. So she called Thrasher, and we sent out Breyden Eckhout to do the inspection.

After looking at these issues, it was clear Diane needed Thrasher's help. Breyden proposed a solution and got our install team out to the house to get to work. We buried the discharge lines and downspouts underground using PVC and bubble pots to direct the water away from the foundation. This also took care of the trip hazards by no longer having them above ground in a high traffic area. 

Diane was happy with the results and wished she had done it sooner!

Ron has been experiencing foundation settlement throughout his home. The biggest culprit? His house has no gutters. Even though his home is over 40 years old, it has never had gutters installed. This is shocking because a gutter's sole purpose is to keep water away from your home to prevent the water from entering the soil and disrupting your foundation.

Ron knew it was time to do something about it. He called Thrasher, and we sent System Design Specialist, Jason White, to take a look and come up with a solution. 

Upon inspection, it was clear that roof water was falling directly next to the foundation due to the lack of gutters. This water was then pooling around the foundation and getting into the crawl space, causing multiple issues. So to fix this significant problem, we installed a complete GutterShutter system with buried downspouts to control the roof water and properly divert it away from the home. 

Now, Ron's home is looking fresh with its new gutters! And most importantly, Ron no longer has to worry about water affecting his home's foundation.

Gary and Donna have a lot of tall trees around their home. After the winter months, they noticed a lot of leaves and debris in their gutters and were concerned about their buried downspouts getting clogged. They called Thrasher, and we sent out Service Technician Bob Dunn to take a look. After inspection, Bob found a lot of debris in their downspouts and suggested our RainDrop Gutter Guards. These Gutter Guards do exactly what it sounds like: guards that protect your gutters from leaves, twigs, and other debris. It's 100% maintenance-free and self-cleaning. After installing, Gary and Donna told us how happy they are now that they don't have to get up on a ladder and clean out their gutters!

Homeowner Dave had buried downspouts in his yard, which he loved. But he kept running into the same problem. The point where the discharge ended, there was always a soggy wet spot in his backyard. He knew this wasn't a huge issue, but he wanted to instead extend the downspout out into a pasture so his yard could stay nicer while still having a drainage system.

Instead of trying to figure out how to do it himself, Dave decided to call Thrasher. System Design Specialist, Tony Taylor, went out to his home to figure out the best plan of action. After inspecting the buried downspouts, it was clear the discharge was fine, but as Dave said, it did end 3 feet inside of the gated backyard area. Which allowed a pool of water to collect and created a soft spot in the soil after rainfall. 

To fix the issue, we extended the discharge another 10 feet. This helped move the water into a pasture and out of the backyard. It also allowed the soggy area to be in an area that the family doesn't move through often and will actually help the pasture grow better.

Even though it might not be a complex or pressing issue, it was a solution that helped improve the homeowner's quality of life and made it so he could enjoy his backyard more with his family.
