Gutter Repair & Replacement in Marietta, GA
On Marietta's older homes the gutter is often fighting details that were never right to begin with — no drip edge, original fascia, and half-round runs replaced with whatever was cheapest in 1994.
“IRoofer Team did a superb job. They are very knowledgeable, professional and made this process seamless. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a roofing company that does a job very well done!! Thanks.”
Fixing the detail, not just the gutter
A great deal of the fascia rot we find on older Marietta homes traces to a missing gutter apron or drip edge, which lets water wick back behind the run every time it rains. Replacing the gutter without correcting that simply resets the clock on the same failure. We install the flashing detail properly, replace fascia that has gone, and where a home has architectural character worth keeping we will talk through half-round and appropriate profiles rather than defaulting to standard K-style on a house it does not suit.
Historic district considerations
If your property sits in one of Marietta's historic districts, exterior changes can require a Certificate of Appropriateness, and gutter profile and material are exterior changes. That does not make the work difficult, it makes it worth checking before you order materials. Which authority handles your address depends on tax district — (4) MARIETTA is the city, (9) UNINCORPORATED is Cobb County. Gutter work by itself does not require a building permit in either, but design review is a separate question from permitting.

Yes, and on some older Marietta homes it is the right call aesthetically. We will price both honestly rather than steering you to standard K-style because it is quicker to hang.
Gutter work on its own does not require a building permit. Design review in a historic district is a separate matter. Which authority applies depends on your tax district — city or unincorporated Cobb.
Profile, material, linear footage and any fascia repair. Older homes often need the flashing detail corrected too, and we itemise that rather than burying it.
