Water Goes Where You Tell It To

Residential gutter installation for proper roof runoff and foundation protection in Cincinnati, Ohio.

When your gutters are missing, undersized, or sagging away from the roofline, water pours off your roof and soaks the ground right next to your foundation, which can lead to basement leaks, soil erosion, and cracked concrete around your Cincinnati home. WWJD Roofing installs gutters that are sized and sloped correctly to move water away from your house and into downspouts that discharge where it will not cause problems.

We measure your roofline and calculate the volume of runoff based on roof pitch and square footage, then install gutters with the right width and downspout spacing to handle heavy rain without overflowing. Our gutter systems integrate cleanly with your existing roofing and siding, and we use hidden hangers and proper fastening to prevent sagging or separation over time.

If your Cincinnati home needs new gutters or you want to replace a system that is not doing its job, reach out to WWJD Roofing for a free estimate with clear pricing and a realistic timeline.

How Gutters Get Installed the Right Way

Your gutter installation in Cincinnati starts with removing old gutters if they are still attached, then inspecting the fascia board for rot or damage that needs repair before new gutters go up. We snap chalk lines to ensure proper slope toward downspouts, usually a quarter inch per ten feet, so water flows without pooling or backing up during storms.

Once the gutters are mounted, you will see clean seams, downspouts positioned to drain away from walkways and plantings, and end caps that seal without gaps. The system will move water off your roof and away from your foundation without splashing or overflowing at the corners.

We install elbows and extensions to direct water at least six feet from your foundation, and we use screws rather than spikes to secure the gutter to the fascia for long-term stability. The job does not include gutter guards or leaf screens unless you request them separately, but we can add them at the time of installation if you want to reduce seasonal cleaning.

It helps to know what you are getting into

Homeowners who contact WWJD Roofing about gutters usually want to know how we size them, whether we can match existing colors, and what happens if the fascia board is rotted.

How do you determine the right gutter size?
We calculate roof area and pitch to determine how much water will flow into the gutter during heavy rain, then size the system to handle that volume without overflowing. Most residential homes in Cincinnati use five-inch gutters, but steeper or larger roofs may need six-inch systems.
Can you match the color of my existing gutters?
Yes, we stock common gutter colors and can order custom colors to match your trim or siding if needed. We bring samples so you can see the match before we install.
What happens if my fascia board is rotted?
We replace damaged sections of fascia before installing new gutters so the system has solid backing and will not pull away over time. We let you know if fascia work is needed after we inspect the roofline.
Will the downspouts drain far enough from my foundation?
We install downspout extensions that carry water at least six feet away from your foundation, and we can add splash blocks or underground drains if your yard does not slope away naturally.
How long does gutter installation take?
Most residential gutter installations in Cincinnati take one day, though larger homes or jobs requiring fascia repair may take longer. We confirm timing when we provide your estimate.
