Reliable Gutter Contractor Services
Robinson O’Brien-Bours is the owner of The Brothers that just do Gutters of Los Angeles. Born in Los Angeles to a family involved with the Hollywood entertainment industry, Robinson graduated from Ashland University with a degree in Political Science and History. He has spent most of his career helping high-growth tech startups scale, with a primary focus on providing good customer service.
Over the years, Robinson had looked passively at potential business opportunities, but seriously began focusing on it in the wake of the devastating January 2025 Los Angeles wildfires. As he and family and friends had to evacuate from various parts of town, he realized how so much of his tech career was divorced from his community and wanted to reorient his life towards greater community involvement - local employees serving local customers in Los Angeles
From this desire to build a business focused on the local community, Robinson decided to partner with The Brothers that just do Gutters and launch the Los Angeles franchise. The Brothers that just do Gutters is an organization built on delivering excellent experiences to its customers and solutions to their problems, which is right up his alley. Robinson could not be happier to be embarking on this journey working alongside members of his family.
A longtime resident of Hollywood, Robinson is a season ticket subscriber to the Hollywood Bowl, a regular at Musso & Frank’s, and an avid supporter of the Griffith Observatory. In his free time you’re likely to find him watching the latest movies, walking his dog at Runyon Canyon, rooting for the Dodgers, or spending time with his family.
How It All Began
In 1999 Ken Parsons had just left the teaching industry and started his own gutter contractor company under the name Waterfall Seamless Gutters.
In 2002 Ken’s younger brother, Ryan Parsons, accepted a job on the truck with Ken after the Graphic Design company he was working for crashed.
In 2006 the Brothers briefly changed their name to Water-flow Gutter Solutions before finally becoming “The Brothers that just do Gutters” in 2009.
The name we all know and love came from a radio ad the Brothers ran just a couple years prior to the change. Everyone who heard it liked it so much they thought it was the company name so Ken and Ryan stopped fighting it and adopted the name. With the name change came a few title changes as well. We decided we no longer wanted to be salesman, presidents or owners but rather Solutionists©, which embodied what we represent to our clients. Ken Parsons was re-entitled Senior Solutionist©, and Ryan Parsons became Chief Solutionist©.
Being in the gutter contractor business for over 15 years was an effort of adaptation and determination. We have been able to be successful for so long because we made our main focus the customer. The Brothers that just do Gutters offer a wide variety of installations, cleaning and repairs in a small niche industry of seamless rain gutters and leaf guards. We have been able to grow the reliability of our services and offer only the best products by focusing all our effort on gutter systems and guards.
