Seamless Systems & LeafBlaster Guards for Tree-Lined Streets
Seamless gutters and leaf protection designed for South Orange's mature canopy
South Orange's beautiful mature trees create a lush canopy that enhances property values and neighborhood character. However, this tree coverage requires robust gutter systems capable of handling high volumes of leaves and debris. R&E Roofing installs seamless aluminum and copper gutter systems specifically designed for South Orange's unique environment, protecting your foundation, landscaping, and basement from water damage.

While standard 5-inch gutters work in many locations, South Orange's mature tree canopy and seasonal leaf volume demand higher-capacity systems. Our 6-inch seamless gutters handle 40% more water volume than standard gutters, preventing overflow during heavy autumn leaf accumulation and spring rainstorms. Combined with oversized 3x4 inch downspouts, these systems ensure proper drainage even under South Orange's challenging conditions.
South Orange's tree-lined streets require professional-grade gutter protection. LeafBlaster gutter guards feature a patented surgical steel micro-mesh design that blocks leaves, pine needles, and roof grit while allowing maximum water flow. This system eliminates dangerous ladder climbs for gutter cleaning, prevents ice dams in winter, and protects your gutters from damage caused by debris accumulation. For South Orange homeowners, LeafBlaster guards are an essential investment that provides maintenance-free gutter performance for decades.
Many of South Orange's distinguished Victorian homes feature copper gutters that develop a beautiful green patina over time. Copper gutters offer exceptional durability (50+ years), require no painting, and enhance your home's curb appeal and property value. We install authentic copper gutter systems with soldered seams for the most elegant and durable gutter solution available.

Common questions from South Orange homeowners
For South Orange's mature tree canopy and high leaf volume, we strongly recommend 6-inch gutters. They handle 40% more water and debris than standard 5-inch gutters, preventing overflow during autumn leaf accumulation and heavy rainstorms. The modest additional cost provides significant performance benefits for South Orange's environment.
Absolutely! South Orange's tree coverage makes gutter guards essential, not optional. LeafBlaster guards eliminate dangerous gutter cleaning (the most common cause of homeowner ladder accidents), prevent basement flooding from clogged gutters, reduce ice dam formation in winter, and extend gutter lifespan. Most South Orange homeowners recover their investment within 3-5 years through eliminated cleaning costs.
Aluminum gutters are available in over 20 colors including white, black, brown, bronze, various grays, and beige tones. We help you select colors that complement your South Orange home - matching siding for gutters that disappear, matching trim for cohesive appearance, or contrasting colors highlighting Victorian architectural details.
Quality aluminum seamless gutters last 20-30 years in South Orange with proper maintenance. Copper gutters can last 50+ years and often outlive the home itself. LeafBlaster gutter guards carry a transferable lifetime warranty. Proper installation with correct slope and adequate downspouts ensures maximum lifespan.
Copper gutters are an excellent choice for South Orange's Victorian homes. They offer exceptional durability (50+ years), develop a beautiful patina that enhances historic character, require no painting, and significantly increase property value. While the initial investment is higher than aluminum, copper's longevity and aesthetic appeal make it cost-effective long-term for distinguished South Orange properties.
