Gutter Repair in Cedar Rapids, IA

Leaks, Sagging and Loose Seams Fixed Right the First Time

Is your gutter dripping at the seams, pulling away from the house or overflowing in a light rain? Even a small gutter problem can lead to peeling paint, rotted fascia and water pooling against your foundation. Tomlinson Cannon has repaired gutters across Cedar Rapids and Eastern Iowa since 1948, and our crews know how to find the real cause and fix it so it stays fixed.

Gutter Problems We Repair

• Leaking seams and joints: temperature swings and corrosion open up joints between sections and at the corners.
• Sagging or pulling-away gutters: old spike-and-ferrule fasteners loosen through Iowa’s freeze-thaw cycles. We re-hang sections with heavy-duty hidden hangers screwed into the fascia.
• Wrong slope or pitch: if gutters aren’t angled toward the downspouts, water sits, overflows and eventually breaks through weak spots.
• Damaged corners, end caps and outlets: the small parts that keep water moving where it should.
• Detached or crushed downspouts: we reattach, replace or reroute them. For downspouts that dump water too close to the house, see our downspouts and drainage service in Cedar Rapids.
• Old sealant and corrosion: on older homes, dried-out sealant and corroded metal let water escape every time it rains.

Signs Your Gutters Need Repair

• Water stains on siding or fascia boards
• Drips or rust marks under gutter seams
• Overflow during light or moderate rainfall
• Peeling paint or mildew on exterior walls
• Erosion or puddling near your foundation

How Our Gutter Repair Works

1. Inspection

We find the exact source of the problem, checking joints, seams, fasteners, slope and any nearby roof or fascia damage.

2. Repair or Replace the Section

Depending on the damage, we reseal, reattach or replace the affected section using quality sealants and materials made for Iowa weather. If the fascia behind the gutter is soft or rotted, our soffit and fascia team handles that in the same visit.

3. Clean and Test

Clogs often cause leaks, so we clear debris and run water through the system to make sure it drains to the downspouts.

4. Prevent the Next Problem

We’ll tell you honestly whether a repair will last. If the system is near the end of its life, we’ll explain your options for new seamless gutters in Cedar Rapids. To cut down on clogs, we can also add gutter guards.

Repair or Replace?

A single leaking seam, a loose section or a damaged downspout is usually a repair. Rust through the gutter, sagging along whole runs, or repeated leaks in several places usually mean a new seamless system is the better investment. We’ll show you what we find and give you a straight answer either way.
