Gutters in Schertz, TX

About twenty-five minutes southwest, down the interstate corridor.

Schertz sits across the county line from us and it is a short run down the corridor. The housing here skews newer than Seguin, and that changes what goes wrong.

The builder-grade problem

A large share of the subdivision building through the two thousands went up with five-inch sectional gutter and one downspout per run, chosen because it was the cheapest thing that met the spec. On a modest roof that is fine. On the bigger two-story elevations with a long unbroken roof plane feeding one corner, it is not, and the homeowner finds out the first time a real storm parks over the neighborhood.

The single most common thing we do in Schertz is take off a five-inch run and put up six inch with an extra downspout, and the overflow stops.

Newer roofs, newer fascia

The upside of newer housing is that the fascia is usually sound, so a replacement is a clean one-day job with no carpentry in front of it. We still check, but it rarely holds anything up here.

Trees

Live oak, and a lot of it planted at the same time as the houses, so the canopy over these roofs has been getting steadily heavier for twenty years. Gutter guards get asked about in Schertz more than anywhere else we work.

Not sure your roof needs six inch? Read five inch versus six inch gutters.
