What gutter work looks like on North Charleston roofs.
North Charleston's rail and highway corridors lay fine grit and diesel residue on roofs and gutters along Rivers Avenue, Dorchester Road and the I-26 side of Park Circle, and the older streets in Cedar Grove and Dorchester Terrace add tree debris on top of it. We install 6-inch seamless aluminum with micro-mesh guards as standard on the older pockets.
In the low streets near the Navy Yard and Noisette Creek and on the Ashley River side by Ashley Villas, getting water away from the slab matters more than anywhere else in the city, so downspout extensions and splash blocks are part of the gutter install. Wescott Plantation and Coosaw Creek two-stories usually need the 5-inch builder gutters upsized for the roof area.
Fascia comes first on the Navy-era cottages. Seventy years of tree debris and rail grit holding water in a Park Circle or Cedar Grove gutter rots the fascia board and the ends of the rafter tails, and a new gutter hung on that wood sags within a season. We open the edge, replace the rot, wrap the fascia in matching trim coil, and hang the gutter on solid material, with the fascia work priced as its own line.
Deep front porches on their own low-slope roof are a gutter problem as much as a roof problem: the porch gutter takes the main roof's discharge on top of its own rain, and a single downspout at the porch corner cannot carry it. We add a downspout at the porch, upsize the run, and on a Dorchester Terrace or Cedar Grove cottage, route the discharge past the slab to a spot in the yard that actually drains.
