Why are so many Ridgeland gutters due for replacement?
Many Ridgeland gutters are due for replacement because the neighborhoods are 30 to 40 years old and so are the gutters. Bridgewater, Trace Harbor and Lake Castle were built out in the 1980s and 1990s. Aluminum gutters last 20 to 30 years when installed properly, so an original system in these subdivisions is at or past the end of its service life.
The usual signs are joints that drip, runs that have pulled away from the fascia and paint that has chalked. Dun-Rite Seamless Gutters, Inc. repairs single sections for $150 to $600, but on a system that age full replacement, starting at $1,200, is often the better use of the money.
How does Ridgeland's tree canopy affect gutters?
Ridgeland's magnolia and oak canopy sheds into gutters nearly year-round. Southern magnolias drop large, leathery leaves in every season, not just in fall, and those leaves do not break down in a gutter; they lie flat over the outlets. Oaks add catkins in spring and leaves in autumn. Between the Natchez Trace Parkway and the Ross Barnett Reservoir, a good share of the city sits under mature trees.
For magnolia and oak leaves Dun-Rite recommends the large-hole screen guard at $7 to $10 per linear foot installed; the gutter guard page compares it with fine mesh and foam. Without guards, plan on cleaning twice a year.
What do replacement gutters cost on a Ridgeland home?
Replacement gutters on a Ridgeland home typically cost $1,200 to $3,500 for a complete aluminum system from Dun-Rite. The price covers removing the old gutters, forming new .032 gauge runs on site and hanging them on hidden hangers every 24 inches. Most single-story homes take one day; two-story homes take one to two.
Ridgeland is one of 14 cities on the Dun-Rite service area list, and there are no trip charges in any of them.
