Lakewood’s planned community was built fast and built uniform. Those low-slope roofs, the original galvanized gutters, the layered re-roofs from the 1970s and 1990s - we’ve seen it all. When your neighbor’s fascia starts rotting, there’s a decent chance yours is next. That’s not alarm talk. That’s the reality of 70-year-old tract construction.

Our Gutters & Accessories Services in Lakewood
Seamless Gutters
Seamless aluminum gutters are the standard retrofit for Lakewood’s aging housing stock, and for good reason. The original 1950s galvanized steel gutters rust through on a predictable 25-year cycle, and the first generation of replacement seamless aluminum installed in the 1970s is now reaching end-of-life itself. We fabricate 5-inch and 6-inch K-style seamless gutters on-site to exact measurements, eliminating the leaky seams that plague sectional systems. For homes with multiple layers of shingles - common in Lakewood after the 1970s and 1990s re-roofing booms - we often recommend 6-inch gutters to handle the increased runoff volume.
Fascia Repair
Behind every failing gutter in Lakewood, there’s usually rotted fascia you can’t see from the ground. Original 1×6 fascia boards were painted, not sealed, and 70 years of water seepage has softened the wood. On a home near Mayfair Park, we replaced a pair of rusted-through 1970s aluminum seamless gutters that were dumping water onto original wood fascia, causing rot that had already spread to the underlying rafter tails. We removed the old gutters, replaced three sections of rotted fascia, and installed new 6-inch K-style seamless aluminum with hidden hangers and 3×4 downspouts to handle Lakewood’s occasional monsoon-like winter rain. Fascia repair is not optional if the wood is compromised - new gutters on rotten fascia will fail within seasons.
Gutter Guard Installation
Gutter guards make particular sense on Lakewood’s low-slope roofs, where debris doesn’t wash off as readily as on steeper pitches. We install proven systems from GAF and CertainTeed that handle the fine needles from the deodar cedars common in older Lakewood neighborhoods, as well as the broader leaves from liquidambar and sycamore. Guards reduce cleaning frequency, but they don’t eliminate it entirely - we’ll tell you straight what to expect, not sell you a maintenance-free fantasy.
Gutter Repair
Not every gutter needs full replacement. Separated seams, loose hangers, and damaged downspout elbows are often repairable at a fraction of replacement cost. We assess honestly. If your 1990s seamless aluminum has good structural life but a few problem spots, we’ll fix what needs fixing and tell you what to watch for. If the system is past its useful life, we’ll say so and explain why.
Downspout Repair and Extension
Lakewood’s clay-heavy soils and flat lots mean water needs to be carried well away from foundation walls. We repair and replace downspouts, add extensions, and install underground drainage where appropriate. The goal is simple: get water off the roof, out of the gutters, and away from your home.

Common Gutters & Accessories Problems We See in Lakewood Homes
- Original 1950s galvanized gutters rust through at the bottom seam. Especially near downspout outlets where water pools, these systems are well past their design life. If you’re in the 90713 ZIP code or near Lakewood Boulevard, we’ve likely replaced gutters on a house exactly like yours.
- Multiple layers of shingle overhangs cause gutters to be undersized. Standard 5-inch gutters can’t handle the increased runoff from three layers of asphalt. We measure actual roof area and pitch to specify the right capacity, not just swap same-for-same.
- Fascia boards behind gutters rot undetected. Original 1×6 was painted, not sealed, and 70 years of water seepage has softened the wood. By the time you see staining on the soffit, the damage is often extensive.
- Low-slope drainage deficiencies show up in winter rain events. Lakewood’s 2:12 to 4:12 ranch roofs don’t shed water fast. Without adequate gutter capacity and proper downspout placement, water backs up and finds its way inside.

FAQs - Gutters & Accessories in Lakewood
No - if they’re truly intact and draining properly, you don’t need to replace them immediately. But original galvanized gutters in Lakewood are now 70+ years old, and we’ve never seen a set that isn’t at least thinning at the bottom seams. We recommend a free inspection to check wall thickness at the outlets and along the low points. If replacement is coming in the next 3-5 years, planning ahead beats emergency replacement during a January storm. Call (844) 563-1816 and we’ll take a look - estimates are free.
Yes, you likely need 6-inch gutters rather than standard 5-inch. Three layers of asphalt add significant runoff volume, and the reduced drainage efficiency of low-slope roofs compounds the problem. We calculate actual roof area and local rainfall intensity to size your system correctly. Undersized gutters on a triple-layer roof overflow in every significant rain. The upgrade cost is modest compared to water damage remediation. Call (844) 563-1816 for a capacity assessment.
Because water doesn’t need a visible leak to destroy wood over decades. Capillary action draws moisture behind the gutter apron, and original 1×6 fascia was painted, not sealed. In Lakewood’s climate, that painted surface looks fine from below while the back side and end grain turn to pulp. By the time you see exterior paint failure, the structural damage is advanced. We check fascia integrity on every gutter job - it’s not an upsell, it’s due diligence. Call (844) 563-1816 for an inspection.
Yes, and they’re particularly beneficial on low-slope roofs where debris doesn’t wash off naturally. We install guards rated for the debris types common in Lakewood neighborhoods - fine cedar needles, broad deciduous leaves, and the grit shed by aging asphalt shingles. The key is matching the guard type to your specific tree cover and roof pitch, not installing a one-size-fits-all product. We’ll show you options and explain what maintenance each requires. Call (844) 563-1816 to discuss your situation.
Standard gutter replacement typically does not require a permit in Lakewood, but jobs involving fascia replacement, structural repair, or changes to roof drainage discharge may trigger LA County requirements. We handle permit determination as part of our estimate process - if one is needed, we pull it; if not, we document why. No surprises at inspection time. Call (844) 563-1816 and we’ll clarify your specific project.
