Gutters and siding work together to keep water away from a house, but they're two different trades with different failure points. Gutter contractors install, repair, and clean seamless aluminum or steel gutters, downspouts, leaf guards, and the fascia and drip edge they attach to. Siding contractors handle vinyl, fiber cement, or engineered wood siding, along with the trim, soffit, and house wrap underneath. In New Britain, where older housing stock mixes with newer construction, both trades often overlap on the same job, since a gutter replacement frequently exposes rotted fascia or siding damage that needs fixing at the same time.
What to look for before you hire
Ask whether the crew fabricates seamless gutters on site with a portable machine or installs sectional pieces, since seamless runs leak less over time. Confirm they carry liability insurance and, for siding jobs, ask how they handle flashing around windows and doors, which is where most water intrusion starts. Get a written scope that specifies gutter size (5-inch vs 6-inch), downspout count, and whether old material removal and disposal is included in the price.
