Gutters for James Island homes under the oaks
Riverland Terrace is one of the first planned neighborhoods on James Island. Edisto Realty Company began selling its 229 lots along Wappoo Creek in late 1925, according to the Town of James Island’s history of the area. Its signature is the Avenue of Oaks, the live oak allee on Wappoo Drive planted in the early 1900s, which runs west from Riverland Drive toward the Stono River. The Charleston Municipal Golf Course and the Fort Pemberton earthworks from 1862 are close by. In the two census block groups at its center, 92.3 percent of homes are detached houses, 94.0 percent are lived in by their owners and 44.9 percent were built before 1960.
Gabe Gomez, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, owns The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Charleston and runs it from Mount Pleasant, and James Island is part of our regular route. In Riverland Terrace we replace worn gutters on older homes, fit gutters to new houses built on the old lots, replace soft fascia, form seamless runs on the truck and install BroGuard under the oaks. Every visit starts with a walk around the house and a free written estimate.
Riverland Terrace mixes 1920s and 1950s cottages and ranches with large new homes on the same streets, so gutter work here ranges from rebuilding a 70-year-old run to sizing a new one for a tall roof. What every house shares is shade. The live oaks over these lots drop old leaves each spring, shed pollen and catkins, and leave small debris that slips into gutters all year. Lots near the creek and marsh also need downspouts that carry water away from crawl spaces and low yards.

Two to four times a year. Live oaks shed their old leaves in spring, then catkins and pollen, and they keep dropping small debris the rest of the year. Most homes here need a spring cleaning after the leaf drop and a fall cleaning, and houses right under the Avenue of Oaks or a big yard oak often need more.
Fine mesh does. Live oak leaves are small and stiff, and catkins are smaller still, so they slip through coarse screens and clog the trough underneath. BroGuard is a fine metal mesh that keeps them on top while rain drains through. You will still want an occasional rinse, but far fewer full cleanings.
Often, yes. On older Riverland Terrace homes the gutters have usually been patched more than once, and the fascia behind them may be soft. We check the wood and the runs on the walkthrough. If the system is sound we clean, reseal and rehang it. If not, you get a free written estimate with the fascia work spelled out.
It depends on the roof area and pitch, not the house size alone. Many new homes here have large, steep roofs that pour into a few corners. A 6-inch gutter holds about 40 percent more than a 5-inch, and an extra downspout often makes the biggest difference. We measure each roof section and size the run to it.
Usually. Many older homes here have downspouts that empty right at the crawl space, and lots near the creek can sit low. We extend downspouts and point the water toward the street or a natural low spot away from the house, so the crawl space stays drier.
