Understanding Seamless Gutter Replacement in Dunwoody
Dunwoody's mature trees and aging homes need gutter systems that handle heavy leaf loads and protect foundations. We upgrade older Dunwoody homes with modern seamless gutters.
Gutters might be the most underappreciated component of your home's exterior — until they fail. When gutters stop working properly, the water has to go somewhere, and where it goes is directly against your foundation, behind your fascia boards, and into your landscaping. Over time, that leads to foundation cracks, basement flooding, wood rot on your fascia and soffits, and erosion that undermines walkways and driveways. We've seen homeowners spend $15,000+ fixing foundation damage that started with $2,000 worth of failed gutters.
We install seamless aluminum gutters — custom-fabricated on-site from a single continuous piece of aluminum for each run. That means no seams, no joints, and no leak points along the length of the gutter. It's the industry standard for a reason: sectional gutters with joints every 10 feet are the #1 source of gutter leaks and failures. We also see a lot of gutter damage from wildlife — raccoons pulling gutters away from fascia to access soffits, birds clogging gutters with nesting material, and squirrels using gutter systems as pathways to the roof. Our gutter replacements always include an assessment for wildlife vulnerability.
One thing we always recommend is gutter guards. Not the cheap plastic screens you buy at the hardware store — professional-grade micro-mesh gutter protection that keeps out leaves, pine needles, seeds, and animal nesting material while maintaining full water flow. For homeowners in heavily wooded neighborhoods (and that's most of Metro Atlanta), gutter guards eliminate the need for regular cleaning and dramatically reduce the risk of wildlife-related gutter damage.
What To Do Right Now
Do This
- Have your gutters inspected if you notice water overflowing, pooling near your foundation, or visible sagging
- Consider seamless gutters over sectional — they eliminate the #1 source of leaks (joints)
- Ask about professional gutter guards, especially if you have mature trees near your home
- Make sure downspouts extend at least 4-6 feet from your foundation to direct water away properly
Don't Do This
- Do NOT ignore overflowing gutters — foundation damage from poor drainage is extremely expensive to repair
- Do NOT clean gutters without checking the fascia board behind them — hidden rot is common
- Do NOT install cheap gutter guards that collapse under debris weight or allow small seeds and pine needles through
- Do NOT wait until gutters are falling off to replace them — by then, fascia and soffit damage has already occurred

Dangers & Health Risks
Foundation Damage
Improperly draining gutters allow water to pool around your foundation, causing cracks and settling.
Fascia & Soffit Rot
Overflowing gutters saturate fascia boards and soffits, leading to wood rot and wildlife entry.
Basement Flooding
Without proper drainage, rainwater seeps into basements and crawlspaces.

Common in Dunwoody & DeKalb County
Metro Atlanta's heavy rainfall (50+ inches per year) makes properly functioning gutters essential. We see the most gutter replacement activity in Cobb, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties, where mature tree canopy means gutters clog frequently. Pine needles are a particular problem in Paulding, Douglas, and Fayette counties. Heavy storms in spring and summer can overwhelm undersized gutters, and wildlife damage is common in wooded neighborhoods throughout the metro. We recommend 6-inch gutters (instead of standard 5-inch) for homes with steep pitches or large roof areas.
North Fork Peachtree Creek, Brook Run Park (77 acres), Dunwoody Nature Center, and dense tree canopy throughout residential areas. Aging 1970s–80s rooflines make Dunwoody a hotspot for squirrel and raccoon entry. Bat colonies are common in neighborhoods near Brook Run Park. Rodent issues persist in the Winters Chapel area.
Transparent Pricing, No Surprises
Most residential seamless gutter replacement projects in Dunwoody range from $1,500–$4,000
Cost depends on home size, number of stories, downspout configuration, and whether fascia repair is needed. Gutter guard installation is additional. Free inspection and detailed, color-matched quote included.
What Dunwoody Customers Say
"Squirrels had been getting into our Dunwoody Village attic for months. The Outdoors Group sealed every entry point and replaced the chewed insulation. Should have called them first."
