Who hires Gutter Pro for new construction

Production builders

Volume residential builders working in Northeast Florida subdivisions. Standard 5-inch builder spec or upgraded 6-inch / 7-inch packages. We work to the builder's master plan, coordinate with framing and roofing schedules, and document install for warranty handoff to homeowner.

Custom home builders

Premium custom builds where the gutter and drainage system is part of the architectural intent. Custom profiles, copper installation, half-round gutters, designed underground drainage from day one. Albert coordinates with the architect and builder on spec.

Infill builders and developers

Single-lot infill builds in established Jacksonville neighborhoods (Riverside, Avondale, San Marco, Ortega, Atlantic Beach). Different scope from production work — usually higher-spec materials, neighborhood-appropriate colors, and tighter coordination with adjacent properties.

Renovation general contractors

Whole-home renovations and additions where the gutter system needs replacement or expansion to match the new structure. We coordinate with the GC's overall schedule and integrate with whatever drainage redesign the project requires.

New-build homeowners (custom or speculative)

Homeowners building their own home or buying a spec build who want to upgrade from builder-grade to a properly engineered gutter and drainage system. Better to do it during construction than retrofit later.

What's different about new construction gutter installation

Timing matters

New construction gutter installs typically happen after roofing is complete and before final exterior paint. Working with the builder's schedule:

• After roofing inspection — fascia is final and dry, ready for hanger placement
• Before final paint — paint touch-up around the gutter line is easier when both are wrapped together
• Coordinated with HVAC and exterior trim — downspout placement avoids exterior unit clearances and trim accents
• Underground drainage trenched during landscaping prep — saves a separate excavation cost

Spec compliance

Most builder contracts specify gutter material, channel size, and downspout count. We install to spec. When the builder spec is undersized or under-specified for Northeast Florida conditions, we flag it during the design walk and offer upgrades — but only with builder/owner sign-off.

Documentation for builder handoff

Every new construction project includes materials list and warranty registration, photo documentation of install, manufacturer warranty paperwork for any branded products (LeafBlaster Pro guards, Schedule 40 PVC drainage, etc.), and maintenance guidance suitable for inclusion in the homeowner welcome packet.

Pricing structure

New construction pricing is typically lower per linear foot than retrofit work because the access is cleaner (no tear-off, fascia is fresh, no debris management). Volume builders get additional pricing structure based on project pipeline.

Standard new construction packages we install

Builder-spec package (production homes)

Standard production-build gutter system: 5-inch seamless aluminum, hidden hangers (or builder-spec spike-and-ferrule on tight-budget projects), white or color-matched aluminum, downspouts placed to standard plan, splash blocks at discharge. Common spec for production builders in Nocatee, Crosswater, Twenty Mile, Coastal Oaks, Del Webb, and similar production subdivisions.

Upgraded package (mid-tier production and custom)

6-inch seamless aluminum, hidden hangers throughout, full color match to trim, increased downspout count for actual roof load, stainless or coated fasteners on coastal lots. Optional: LeafBlaster Pro micro-mesh guards installed at same time as the gutter for a single warranty covering both. This is what most homeowners would upgrade to anyway after a few years of dealing with builder-grade overflow.

Premium package (custom homes and high-end production)

7-inch seamless aluminum or copper, hidden hangers rated for high roof loads, oversized 3x4 downspouts, custom profiles (box gutter, half-round, decorative), Schedule 40 PVC underground drainage from day one routed to designed discharge points. LeafBlaster Pro guards. Lifetime warranty on the full system. Common spec for custom builds in Ponte Vedra, Old Ortega, Avondale, oceanfront homes, and architectural infill projects.

Drainage-included package (any tier)

Add underground Schedule 40 PVC drainage to any tier above. Trenched during landscaping prep, routed to daylight or pop-up emitters at the property edge, optional French drain integration. NDS-certified design. This is what we recommend on every new construction project — installing drainage now costs a fraction of what retrofit costs after landscaping is in.

What separates Gutter Pro from typical builder gutter contractors

NDS-certified drainage design at every tier

Most production-build gutter contractors stop at hanging the aluminum and let the homeowner deal with drainage years later. Gutter Pro is NDS-certified — drainage is part of the design from day one when the builder allows it. Learn more about drainage installation.

Schedule 40 PVC, never corrugated

The corrugated black ADS pipe most production-build drainage uses fails within 5-10 years on Northeast Florida lots. Schedule 40 PVC is the only underground pipe we install, even on builder-spec packages.

LeafBlaster Pro micro-mesh, not generic guards

When the builder package or buyer upgrade includes gutter guards, we install LeafBlaster Pro. Stainless micro-mesh, lifetime manufacturer warranty, designed for the oak/pine/palm canopy common in Northeast Florida. Learn more about LeafBlaster Pro.

Owner Albert on every project

Even production-build projects get Owner Albert on the design walk. National-franchise builder gutter contractors send a sales rep then a different crew. We don't operate that way.

Lifetime warranty backed by an established business

Gutter Pro carries lifetime warranty on labor and materials. We've been doing this for years and intend to keep doing it. Builders hire us in part because the warranty is meaningful when the homeowner calls 5 years later.

Single point of contact for builder relationships

For builders running multiple projects, we maintain a single point of contact (Albert) who knows the master plan, the spec, and the schedule.

How we structure new construction projects

1. Initial coordination call with the builder, GC, or homeowner to understand spec, timeline, and project pipeline
2. Site walk during framing or roofing phase to confirm fascia condition and discharge options
3. Written proposal with itemized scope, materials, installation timeline, and warranty terms
4. Builder/owner sign-off on spec and pricing
5. Coordination with builder schedule — gutter install timed after roofing inspection, before final paint
6. Material order — aluminum formed on site at install, drainage materials staged
7. Install execution — crew on site for 1-3 days depending on scope
8. Final walk and documentation — builder, owner (if applicable), and Albert walk the complete install
9. Warranty registration and homeowner packet — provided to builder for handoff
10. Lifetime warranty service — single point of contact (Owner Albert) for any post-handoff calls

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with production builders?

Yes. Gutter Pro works with production builders running multiple homes through the same subdivision. We provide written master pricing for builder relationships, coordinate with the builder's master schedule, and handle the documentation requirements for builder warranty handoff to homeowners.

Can you provide certificates of insurance for the GC?

Yes. Gutter Pro is fully insured for residential and commercial work in Florida. We provide certificates of insurance to general contractors, builder reps, owner reps, and any third party requiring documentation before mobilization. We can list additional insureds when required.

When during construction do you install gutters?

Typically after roofing inspection is complete (fascia is final and dry) and before final exterior paint (paint touch-up around the gutter line is easier when both are wrapped together). Specific timing coordinates with the builder's master schedule.

Can you install drainage during construction?

Yes — and we recommend it. Underground Schedule 40 PVC drainage trenched during landscaping prep is far cheaper than retrofit excavation after sod is in. We coordinate with the builder's site work schedule.

Do you install builder-spec or upgraded systems?

Both. We install to whatever spec the builder/owner has signed off on. If the builder spec is undersized or under-specified for Northeast Florida conditions (most builder packages are), we flag it during the design walk and offer upgrades — but only with builder/owner approval.

What's the typical cost difference between builder-spec and upgraded systems?

Builder-spec 5-inch seamless aluminum with standard hangers and minimum downspouts typically runs $5 to $9 per linear foot installed. Upgraded 6-inch with hidden hangers and proper downspout count runs $9 to $14 per linear foot. Premium 7-inch or copper with full Schedule 40 PVC drainage runs $14 to $30+ per linear foot.

What warranty do new construction installs come with?

Lifetime warranty on labor and materials, transferable to the homeowner at builder handoff. Warranty registration is included in the project documentation. Single point of contact through Owner Albert for any warranty service.

Do you install copper gutters on new construction?

Yes. Copper is the right call for premium custom builds, historic-district infill, oceanfront homes, and any project where the metal's appearance and longevity justify the cost. We spec compatible fasteners and downspout hardware to prevent galvanic corrosion against the copper.

Can you handle multiple homes in the same subdivision?

Yes. We routinely run multiple homes in the same Nocatee village, Crosswater phase, or Eagle Harbor section. Single point of contact through Owner Albert, consistent crew, master pricing for builder relationships.
