Professional Gutter Installation (Seamless Aluminum) Hempstead - R&M Roofers LLC
Last spring, Dave from Garden City called us about water pooling against his foundation after every rainstorm. His old sectional gutters were leaking at every joint, and the water was starting to crack his basement walls. We installed seamless aluminum gutters around his entire house in one day. Six months later, Dave’s basement is bone dry and his foundation problems are solved. That’s the difference proper gutter installation makes.
I’m Mike from R&M Roofers LLC, and my partner Rob and I have been installing seamless aluminum gutters throughout Hempstead and Nassau County since 2018. We’ve learned that good gutters are just as important as good roofs for protecting your home from water damage. Our gutter installation (seamless aluminum) service has saved hundreds of local homeowners from expensive foundation repairs, basement flooding, and landscape erosion problems.
Why Seamless Aluminum Gutters Beat Everything Else
Most people don’t realize that traditional sectional gutters are basically designed to fail. Every joint is a potential leak point. Every seam collects debris. After a few years, you’ve got water dripping everywhere and clogs that are impossible to clean properly.
Seamless aluminum gutters eliminate 90% of potential failure points because there are no joints except at corners and downspouts. We form your gutters on-site from continuous aluminum coils, so each section is perfectly fitted to your house with no seams where leaks can develop.
Aluminum is the perfect material for Long Island gutters because it doesn’t rust like steel, doesn’t crack like vinyl, and doesn’t rot like wood. Salt air from the ocean corrodes other metals, but aluminum develops a protective oxide layer that actually prevents further corrosion.
The seamless design also looks much cleaner than sectional gutters. No visible joints or color mismatches, just smooth lines that follow your roofline perfectly. Seamless gutters add to your home’s curb appeal instead of detracting from it.
We’ve installed thousands of feet of seamless aluminum gutters, and the performance difference is dramatic. Homeowners who switch from sectional to seamless typically go from constant gutter problems to years of trouble-free operation.
Roofing Contractor Services That Include Quality Gutter Work
Roof Installation projects are perfect timing for gutter installation (seamless aluminum) because we can coordinate everything together. New roofs often require gutter replacement anyway, and doing both jobs simultaneously saves money on setup and cleanup costs. We can also ensure perfect integration between your new roof and gutter system.
Roof Repair work sometimes reveals gutter problems that need attention. When we’re fixing roof issues, we often discover that gutters contributed to the original problem. Water backing up from clogged or inadequate gutters can cause ice dams, soffit rot, and shingle damage. Proper gutter installation prevents these problems from recurring.
Roof Replacement almost always includes gutter evaluation because old gutters rarely complement new roofs properly. Gutter size, placement, and capacity all affect how well your new roof sheds water. We recommend gutter upgrades when they’ll improve your roof’s performance and longevity.
Commercial Roofing projects frequently include commercial gutter systems designed for larger volumes and different drainage requirements. Commercial seamless aluminum gutters handle more water flow and are built to stricter specifications than residential systems.
Storm Damage Repair often includes gutter damage that insurance companies cover along with roof repairs. High winds, falling trees, and hail can damage gutters significantly. Insurance adjusters expect proper gutter repairs as part of storm damage claims.
Gutter Installation is our specialty service for homeowners who need new gutters without roof work. We handle complete installations, partial replacements, and upgrades from sectional to seamless systems. Every installation includes proper sizing, placement, and drainage design.
Real Seamless Gutter Experience Across Hempstead
We’ve installed seamless aluminum gutters on hundreds of homes throughout Hempstead, Garden City, West Hempstead, and Uniondale. Each neighborhood has different challenges, but seamless aluminum handles them all.
The colonial homes near Eisenhower Park have complex rooflines with multiple levels and interesting angles. Seamless gutters are perfect for these situations because we can form custom pieces that follow any roofline configuration. No trying to piece together standard lengths that don’t quite fit.
Garden City homeowners often want gutters that match their home’s premium appearance. Seamless aluminum gutters come in dozens of colors, and the clean lines complement expensive architectural features. We’ve done installations on million-dollar homes where gutters needed to be practically invisible but completely functional.
West Hempstead deals with mature trees that drop leaves constantly during fall. Seamless gutters flow better than sectional gutters, so debris moves through the system instead of getting stuck at joints. We also install gutter guards that keep leaves out while allowing water to flow freely.
Uniondale has diverse housing stock from small ranches to large two-stories. Seamless aluminum gutters work on any house size because we custom-form everything on-site. We can handle long runs without joints and complex configurations without compromising performance.
Long Island weather is tough on gutters. Nor’easters dump huge amounts of water quickly, summer thunderstorms create flash flooding, and winter freeze-thaw cycles stress gutter systems. Seamless aluminum gutters handle all these conditions better than sectional systems.
How We Install Seamless Aluminum Gutters Properly
Precise Measurements happen before we bring our gutter machine to your property. Every roof section gets measured carefully, and we calculate exact gutter lengths needed. This preparation ensures perfect fits and eliminates waste.
On-Site Fabrication uses our portable gutter machine to form gutters exactly to your house dimensions. We bring continuous aluminum coils in your chosen color and form gutters as long as needed without any seams. Custom pieces are formed for corners, end caps, and special situations.
Proper Slope Installation ensures water flows toward downspouts without pooling anywhere along the gutter run. We calculate slope requirements based on gutter length and rainfall intensity for this area. Proper slope prevents standing water that breeds mosquitoes and causes corrosion.
Secure Fastening Systems use hidden hangers spaced every 24 inches maximum for strength and appearance. Visible spike-and-ferrule systems look ugly and fail over time. Our hidden hangers distribute weight evenly and maintain clean sight lines.
Downspout Placement gets calculated based on roof area, rainfall patterns, and drainage requirements. Most homes need downspouts every 35-40 feet of gutter run. We position downspouts to carry water away from foundations and landscaping effectively.
Quality Control Inspection includes water testing every section before we leave your property. We run water through the entire system to verify proper flow, check for leaks, and ensure everything drains correctly. No surprises after the first rainstorm.
Common Gutter Problems We Fix with Seamless Installation
Joint Leaks are eliminated completely with seamless design. Traditional sectional gutters leak at every joint eventually due to thermal expansion, settling, and sealant failure. Seamless gutters only have joints at corners and downspouts, reducing leak potential by 90%.
Improper Slope causes water to pool in low spots, creating mosquito breeding areas and accelerating corrosion. We re-slope existing gutters or install new seamless systems with proper drainage gradients calculated for your specific roof configuration.
Inadequate Capacity happens when gutters are too small for your roof area or local rainfall intensity. Seamless aluminum gutters come in 5-inch and 6-inch widths. We calculate the right size based on your roof’s square footage and Long Island’s heavy rainfall patterns.
Clog Problems get reduced significantly with seamless design because debris flows better through smooth channels without joints to catch leaves and twigs. We also offer gutter guard systems that keep debris out while maintaining water flow.
Ugly Appearance from mismatched sections, visible joints, and poor installation gets eliminated with seamless gutters. Clean lines, consistent color, and professional installation make gutters blend with your home’s architecture instead of detracting from it.
Foundation Damage from water overflow or improper drainage gets prevented with correctly sized and positioned seamless gutters. Proper water management protects your foundation, basement, and landscaping from expensive water damage.
Different Seamless Aluminum Gutter Options We Offer
Standard 5-Inch Gutters handle most residential applications effectively. These work well for roof areas up to 2,400 square feet with moderate rainfall. Most homes in Hempstead use 5-inch gutters successfully.
Heavy-Duty 6-Inch Gutters are better for larger roofs, areas with heavy rainfall, or homes with steep roof pitches that create fast water runoff. The extra capacity prevents overflow during heavy storms that are common on Long Island.
Color Options include white, brown, black, and dozens of custom colors to match or complement your home’s exterior. Popular choices in our area include colonial white, musket brown, and charcoal gray. Colors are baked into the aluminum, not painted on.
Gutter Guard Systems can be installed during initial gutter installation or added later. We offer several styles from simple screens to sophisticated helmet designs. Gutter guards reduce maintenance and prevent clogs but must be matched to your specific situation.
Custom Configurations handle unusual roof designs, architectural details, and special drainage requirements. We can form custom corners, special outlets, and decorative elements that standard sectional gutters can’t accommodate.
Commercial Grade Systems for larger buildings use heavier gauge aluminum and stronger fastening systems. Commercial installations often include larger downspouts and more frequent supports to handle higher water volumes.

Maintenance Tips for Your New Seamless Gutters
Regular Cleaning twice per year keeps gutters flowing properly. Spring and fall cleanings remove leaves, seeds, and debris that accumulate over time. Even with gutter guards, some maintenance is necessary.
Inspection After Storms helps identify damage before it becomes expensive. Check for loose hangers, damaged sections, or clogs after major weather events. Early detection prevents bigger problems.
Downspout Maintenance includes keeping outlets clear and ensuring proper drainage away from foundations. Downspout extensions should carry water at least 6 feet from house foundations.
Professional Maintenance is available for homeowners who prefer not to climb ladders. We offer annual gutter cleaning and inspection services to keep your investment protected.
