Gutters do one job: get rain and snowmelt off your roof and away from your house. When they leak, sag, or overflow, that water ends up against the foundation, behind the fascia, and in your landscaping. Lakeview Roofing installs seamless gutters, leaf guards, and downspouts in Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, Rathdrum, and across North Idaho.

Why Do Gutters Matter in North Idaho?

Gutters carry rain and snowmelt off the roof and away from the foundation, which protects the foundation, the fascia and soffits, and your landscaping.

Foundation

Water that pours off the roof edge soaks the ground right against the foundation. Downspouts move it away.

Fascia and soffits

Overflowing or leaking gutters keep the boards along the roof edge wet, and wet wood rots.

Landscaping

A steady stream off the roof edge digs trenches in beds and washes out soil and mulch.

Idaho's residential code requires the ground around a home to fall at least 6 inches within the first 10 feet of the foundation, so water drains away. Downspouts should empty onto that sloped ground, not into a low spot against the house.

What Gutter Services Do We Offer?

Seamless gutters cut to length on site, leaf guards, downspouts sized and placed to carry water away from the foundation, and new gutters as part of a roof replacement.

Seamless gutters

Custom-cut to length on site for your home, so the long runs have no seams to leak.

Leaf guards

Keep pine needles and debris out of the gutters, so you clean them less often and they clog less.

Downspouts

Sized and placed to carry water well away from the foundation.

Gutters with a new roof

With the roof edge open during a roof replacement, it's a good time to replace the gutters too.

What Size Gutters Do You Need?

Most homes use 5-inch gutters. Roofs with a large surface area or a steep pitch may need 6-inch gutters. We measure your roof's drainage area and recommend a size during your free estimate.

When Should You Replace Your Gutters?

Replace your gutters when they sag, rust, leak at the seams, or pull away from the fascia.

  • Sagging sections that hold water instead of draining it
  • Rust spots or holes
  • Leaks at the seams or joints
  • Gutters pulling away from the fascia board
  • Overflow during normal rain even when the gutters are clean

A loose section or a leaky joint can often be repaired. We'll tell you which it is.

How Often Should You Clean Gutters in North Idaho?

Two to three times a year if you have pine trees nearby. Pine needles mat together and block downspouts faster than broadleaf debris does.

Leaf guards cut down on how often you have to clean. For a seasonal schedule, read our gutter cleaning guide for North Idaho.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size gutters do I need?

Most homes use 5-inch gutters. Roofs with a large surface area or a steep pitch may need 6-inch gutters. We measure your roof's drainage area and recommend a size during your free estimate.

What are seamless gutters?

Gutters custom-cut to length on site for your home, so the long runs have no seams. Seams are where sectional gutters usually leak.

Do you install leaf guards?

Yes. Leaf guards keep pine needles and debris out of the gutters, so they clog less and need cleaning less often.

When should I replace my gutters?

When they sag, rust, leak at the seams, or pull away from the fascia, or when they overflow in normal rain even when clean. A loose section or leaky joint can often be repaired instead.

Can I replace my gutters during a roof replacement?

Yes, and it's a good time to. With the roof edge open, we can replace the roof and gutters in one project.

How often should I clean my gutters in North Idaho?

Two to three times a year if you have pine trees nearby, since pine needles mat together and block downspouts quickly. Leaf guards cut down on cleaning.
