From my first contact with Ralph F. back in the spring I knew that Brothers Sheet Metal was a cut above the competition. I obtained three (3) proposals for my gutter installation project. My 1954 ranch is an open rafter design, meaning that their is no facia board nailed to the end of the rafters. We’ve been in the home for 1-1/2 years. Gutter installation was likely forestalled for years prior to our ownership because it wasn’t obvious how to install gutters in light of the open rafter design. Brothers was the only company that:
Knew right off the bat how to deal with the open rafter design of the roof. One of the competitors scratched his head, the other didn’t even discuss it. The brackets aren’t visible and they result in a superior installation from a structural standpoint.
Talked about esthetics at all. The home has a long, low profile that makes for a marvelous curb appeal and Ralph knew how to protect it with the lower profile half-rounds rather than a deeper, boxier gutter style. After the install you can’t really notice them from the street.
The crew was prompt, courteous and professional. The job took a day and half and now our home is protected from any further foundation damage due to a lack of rain gutters. Brothers was not the cheapest but I was impressed with Ralph’s level of knowledge and the outstanding quality of the installation. My property has drainage issues and gutters are the most important part of the solution.
