Does living near the river affect what gutters I should use?

Yes. Salt and humidity are hard on metal, which is why we install aluminum rather than steel. Waterfront homes generally benefit from more frequent hanger and seam checks than inland homes.

My gutters are pulling away from the house. Is that a gutter problem?

Often it's a fascia problem. If the wood behind the gutter has softened, the fasteners have nothing to hold. We check the board before quoting, because rehanging the same gutter on the same bad fascia just delays the call.

Gutters in Palmetto, up close.

Water exposure defines a lot of the work in Palmetto. Homes along the Manatee River and out toward Snead Island and Terra Ceia sit in air that carries salt and stays humid most of the year. Aluminum is the right material for that, and fastener choice matters as much as the gutter itself.

Closer to the historic district and the older neighborhoods off Riverside Drive, we run into the same thing we see in older Bradenton: wood fascia that's been quietly taking overflow for a long time. If your gutters are pulling loose, the board behind them is usually the reason, and refastening to soft wood doesn't hold.

The newer developments north and east of town are a different call entirely, generally about sizing and downspout placement rather than repair.
