Eavestroughs & Drainage

Eavestrough Installation in Toronto & the GTA

Water sheeting over the front of your eavestroughs, staining the brick, or dumping straight beside the foundation usually means the old troughs are past saving — rusted seams, pulled spikes, or a system that was undersized the day it went on. New eavestroughs are one of the cheaper exterior jobs on a house, and one of the very few that directly protects your basement from water.

Almost every gutter installation we quote now is seamless eavestrough, formed off a machine in the driveway to the exact length of each run — no joints mid-run means far fewer places to leak. Sizing matters more than most people think. Standard 5 inch gutters handle the majority of roofs, but a large steep roof, or a valley dumping onto one short section, calls for 6 inch gutters and bigger downspouts. Slope, hanger spacing and sound fascia behind it all decide how long the system lasts.

We quote the whole system: trough, hidden hangers, corner mitres, downspouts and where the water actually ends up on the ground. If your existing eavestroughs only need re-sloping or a handful of new hangers, we will tell you that — full gutter replacement makes sense when the metal itself is done, not before. Photos of the worst runs and the fascia behind them are enough to price most homes.

What this covers

  • Removal and disposal of the old troughs and downspouts
  • Seamless aluminum eavestrough formed on site in 5 inch or 6 inch profile
  • Hidden screw-in hangers spaced tight enough for Ontario snow and ice load
  • Slope set so water actually reaches the downspouts instead of ponding mid-run
  • Sealed corner mitres and end caps
  • New downspouts with elbows and extensions carrying water away from the foundation
  • Fascia condition check before hanging — rot gets flagged before, not after
  • Colour matched to your existing fascia, soffit and trim

What affects the price

  • Total linear footage and the number of corners — mitres are the slow, fiddly part
  • 5 inch versus 6 inch trough, and matching downspout sizing
  • Height and roof pitch; second-storey and steep-roof runs take longer and need more setup
  • Condition of the fascia boards — rotten wood has to be repaired before anything hangs on it
  • How many downspouts the roof needs and how far water has to be carried from the house
  • Aluminum gauge and colour selection
  • Access around the house: decks, landscaping, additions and overhead wires that complicate ladder work

Common questions

Are seamless gutters really better than sectional ones?
For most homes, yes. Sectional troughs have a joint every three metres, and every joint is a future leak once sealant ages through a few dozen freeze-thaw cycles. Seamless eavestrough only has seams at the corners. The material is the same aluminum; you are paying for fewer failure points, which is exactly where old systems fail.
Do I need 5 inch or 6 inch gutters?
Five inch handles most GTA homes fine. We move to 6 inch when a roof is large and steep, when a long valley concentrates water onto one short run, or on many metal roofs where water comes off fast. Oversizing the downspouts often matters as much as the trough itself — that is usually where systems choke.
What time of year can eavestroughs be installed?
Any month the crew can work safely, which in southern Ontario is most of the year. Sealants cure better above freezing, so deep-winter installs get done on milder days. Fall is the busiest season because everyone wants new eavestroughs before freeze-up; if you can book in late spring or summer, scheduling is easier.
Can you install new eavestroughs if my fascia is rotten?
Not properly. Hangers screw into the fascia board, and a screw in punky wood pulls out with the first ice load. We check the fascia before quoting and price any board replacement or capping alongside the eavestrough work. It is a common combination job — the same rot that killed the fascia usually came from the failing gutters.
How long does a gutter replacement take?
A typical detached house is one day: strip the old system in the morning, run the new trough off the machine, hang, seal and fit downspouts by late afternoon. Larger homes, three-storey rear elevations, or houses needing fascia repairs first can stretch to two days. Weather is the usual wildcard, not the work itself.
