Gutter service for North Hollywood bungalows and post-war tracts

North Hollywood is one of the older stretches of the Valley floor, and the rooflines show it. The blocks around Chandler, Magnolia and Camellia are full of 1920s and 1930s Spanish bungalows and California cottages with shallow eaves and original half-round or 5-inch K-style gutters that were never sized for a modern downpour. North of Victory the stock turns into post-war ranch tracts from the late 1940s and 1950s, long low roof faces with one downspout doing the work of three.

The canopy is what fills them. Mature sycamores, carrotwood, ficus and jacaranda line most of these streets, and ficus in particular sheds small leaves all year that pack into a trough and turn to sludge. Add the palms along Lankershim and you get a debris mix that no seasonal cleaning schedule fully solves on its own.

It is flat here, which sounds like an advantage until a gutter backs up. On a flat lot there is nowhere for overflow to go but straight down the wall and into the slab. We form seamless aluminum on-site so the run matches the roofline in one piece, size the downspouts to the actual roof area, and get the water out past the foundation.
