Gutters do one job: move water off your roof and away from your foundation, siding, and landscaping. When they're sized wrong, sloped wrong, or full of holes, that water ends up in your crawlspace or behind your fascia board instead. Newnan's mix of older neighborhoods with mature trees and newer subdivisions with steeper rooflines means gutter needs vary a lot from one property to the next, which is part of why picking the right contractor matters more than it looks like it should.
What this service actually covers
Most jobs in this category fall into a few buckets:
- Seamless gutter installation, where a contractor runs aluminum stock through a portable machine on-site and forms custom lengths to your fascia, cutting down on the leak-prone joints you get with sectional gutters.
- Repair work: resealing seams, re-hanging gutters that have pulled away from the fascia, fixing sagging runs that no longer drain, and patching or replacing damaged downspouts.
- Gutter guards or leaf protection, added during a new install or retrofitted onto existing gutters.
- Downspout and drainage tie-ins, including extensions or underground drain lines to carry water further from the foundation.
What to look for before you hire
A few things separate a gutter job that lasts from one you'll be redoing in three years:
- Material gauge: thicker aluminum (.032" versus the thinner .027" some crews default to) resists dents and sagging under ladder pressure or heavy rain.
- Correct pitch and downspout count: gutters need a slight, consistent slope toward the downspouts, and a roof of any real size usually needs more than one or two downspouts to keep up with heavy rain.
- Fascia condition: a contractor who checks and repairs rotten fascia before hanging new gutters is doing it right; one who just screws into soft wood is setting you up for a repeat visit.
- Licensing, insurance, and a written warranty covering both materials and workmanship, not just the aluminum itself.

How we score the 13 contractors here
We pull together review volume, average rating, how consistently a contractor performs across jobs, and how responsive they are to customers, then weigh those into a single comparable score. That's meant to surface contractors who do solid work repeatedly, not just ones with a handful of five-star reviews. The full breakdown of how we calculate it is on our methodology page.
