Local Gutter Solutionists
Gutter service for El Sereno, from Huntington Drive to the hills
El Sereno covers about four square miles on the city’s eastern edge, bordering Alhambra, Monterey Park and South Pasadena, with Huntington Drive, Eastern Avenue and Valley Boulevard as its main streets. It grew from separate early 1900s subdivisions, including Rose Hill, Bairdstown and Sierra Vista, joined Los Angeles in 1915, and still keeps open hillsides at Ascot Hills Park and Elephant Hill. About two-thirds of the homes were built before 1960. Mexican fan palms, Chinese elms, Indian laurel figs and crape myrtles are the most common street trees, and the nearest official station averages about 15.7 inches of rain a year.
The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Los Angeles is a locally owned company run by Robinson O’Brien-Bours, with an office in Hollywood and crews working across Northeast LA and the Eastside. We form seamless gutters on-site for each roof, hand-clean every run and flush every downspout, repair sagging runs and leaking corners, install BroGuard stainless micro-mesh, and keep homes on a scheduled plan. Licensed (CA License #1140218), insured, and backed by a 5.0 average on Google.
About two-thirds of El Sereno falls in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone on CAL FIRE’s 2025 map, and an October 2019 brush fire burned about 40 acres in the hills west of Eastern Avenue near Ascot Hills Park. BroGuard is non-combustible metal mesh, so it keeps leaves out of the gutter without adding anything that burns at the roof edge.

El Niño 2026-27
Getting El Sereno gutters ready for El Niño
NOAA gives a greater than 83% chance of a strong to very strong El Niño this winter. The storms that matter usually come between December and March, and a hillside gutter in El Sereno still full of palm debris and elm seeds will overflow toward the house below in the first one. Schedule your pre-storm cleaning and downspout test before December.

What Los Angeles Homeowners Say
“I hired The Brothers That Just Do Gutters to install some gutters above my driveway. The installer was Emiliano. He did an amazing job, didn’t take too much time, was very professional, and charged a fair price. I would highly recommend this company and installer to anyone.”
Posted on Google“Brothers Gutters were amazing. Their quoting and invoicing system was super easy to work with. Hannah and Rhys who did the back end and quote were super responsive. They gave us a really fair price and got the job done a few days later. Really top quality service and work!!”
Posted on Google“We had been looking for someone to install our gutters for quite some time and thought a handyman would be less expensive and more reliable. Were we wrong…”
Posted on GoogleEl Sereno Gutter Questions, Answered
Most El Sereno homes do well with two cleanings a year, one in late fall before the storms and one in late spring. Homes under fan palms, Indian laurel figs or Chinese elms usually need a third, since fronds, small leaves and seeds clog outlets quickly. BroGuard micro-mesh keeps that debris out of the trough for most houses.
Much of it is. CAL FIRE’s 2025 map puts about two-thirds of El Sereno in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, and an October 2019 brush fire burned about 40 acres in the hills near Ascot Hills Park. Dry leaves in a gutter can catch embers, so we recommend metal gutters with non-combustible BroGuard mesh and keeping roofs clear, and we steer every customer away from plastic or foam inserts.
Usually a seamless K-style aluminum gutter colored to the fascia and sized for the roof. About two-thirds of El Sereno homes were built before 1960, so we often find worn hangers and soft fascia behind the old gutters. We replace rotted wood in the same visit and set the slope carefully so water reaches the downspouts instead of spilling over.
Yes. Along with all of El Sereno, including Rose Hill, Sierra Vista and the streets along Huntington Drive and Eastern Avenue, our crews cover University Hills, Highland Park, South Pasadena, Mount Washington and Eagle Rock. Every estimate is free and in writing, and the whole area shares one local number, (213) 205-6598.
Usually, yes. On a hillside lot in El Sereno, a clogged gutter or a downspout in the wrong corner sends water across the yard and toward the house or the neighbor below. We clear and flush the system, fix low spots, relocate downspouts, and can install underground drainage that carries roof water toward the street.
