Copper Gutter Liner in Existing Wood Gutters

Fred and Jim installed a copper gutter liner into existing wood gutters and a slate roof in Wellesley.



Wood gutters require a lot of maintenance, and can be damaged by our harsh New England winters. 


By lining the gutter with copper, the seams and junctions can be soldered, ensuring that the wood never gets wet, and can't rot. Copper resists cracking and erosion, eliminating the need for maintenance in the future.

We remove the slates, install ice and water shield, extend the liner onto the roof plane, and put the slates back.

After this is complete, the owner will never have to be concerned about ice dams, or damage to the wood gutters.



Talk to one of our staff and find out if a copper is right for your home.  Call (617) 965-ROOF (7663) with questions or to schedule a free estimate.
