Edward and Dennis of New England Improvements did a great job of installing aluminum gutters on our house in North Attleboro. They were a word-of-mouth referral from a local business owner I trust. The guys installed the gutters in two parts. The first part was a straight run of gutters on the side of the house that got more water, and the second part was on the trickier side of the house. On that tricky side of the roof, one edge overhangs the deck (which is over our bulkhead). Hanging over the other edge of the deck is the gable end, and then perpendicular to that is the 3rd edge of the roof I wanted gutters on. (It's weird architecture.) That 3rd roof edge has a extra-recessed fascia board that made regular-sized (5k) gutters a no-go. Anyway, the combination of the deck, the 3 runs, the location of our back door, and the unusual fascia board meant we had to think about where to put one of the downspouts, and whether we should replace the fascia board or just install a bigger gutter. Edward and I kicked around some ideas during the initial consult. A few weeks later Edward and Dennis installed the first run of gutters, so that half of the house was all set. As per my specs, he had the downspout discharge a good 2 feet away from the foundation, toward a downhill slope. All perfect. On that day we also determined that we should stick larger, 6k gutters on the other side of the house - on the run with the weird fascia board. About 10 weeks later we did part 2. I tend to see everything in life as a trade-off, and so I'd say that was the only minor "catch" here. Just that it took a while to complete both phases. Edward had to reschedule a couple of times. But he was generally communicative about it, I chalked it up to the summer of 2020 being an extra busy time, and it worked out well in the end. In any event, as soon as the guys arrived for part 2, Edward had an idea for where to stick the trickier of the two remaining downspouts - an idea neither of us had before. Kind of a "Eureka!" moment. The 2nd part of the installation was quick (maybe 2 hours), and the downspouts discharged exactly where I wanted them. The noise level didn't displace our toddler much, and they left behind no mess of any kind. I'm glad I picked New England Improvements. You'll want to contact them well in advance, because he's fairly busy. But if you're fine with that, you'll be happy. Edward is a friendly and up-front point man, and did a good job of laying out my options and not trying to push one option or another. He and Dennis work efficiently, and leave no trace, and the finished product accomplished what I wanted it to. By the way, Edward could charge much more than he does. (My gutters were extremely affordable.) I do most of the work on our house myself, because I enjoy it and am very particular about how things are done, but I'd definitely hire New England Improvements again for future exterior projects. read more
