Gutters, Downspouts, Soffits, Fascia & Custom Metal Capping
Overall job was exceptional, competitively priced and clean. I recommend Jacob whose passion, workmanship and pride are top notch. He and his crew were punctual, timely, and reliable.
Scope of Work: replace faulty gutters, leaf guard, problematic downspouts, as well as fascia and soffits on house. Install new gutters, leaf guard, fascia, soffits, and metal flashing over gable ends, garage door casing, and over styrofoam insulation at base of garage.
Several years the drainage system on the house was disconnected from the sewer system, by the previous homeowner's contractor. The work caused a significant number of problems, including rotting wood behind the troughs, icy walkways, and ice-buildup along the downspouts. Due to the number of tripping hazards that this contractor created, I was able to receive an exemption from the City's requirement to disconnect from the sewer system, for two of my downspouts.
The crew carefully removed the old gutters and replaced rotted wood members and fascia boards. They kept the original wood for me to see and it was in terrible shape.
New, re-routed gutters were installed, properly sloped to re-distribute the water drainage more evenly, and reduce the amount of water flowing into my backyard and onto patios and walkways, by about 75%. This was important to me as we had flooding in the backyard from the volume of water that was draining from the old, faulty system.
My garage was a newly constructed structure that serves as my "dream workshop". Since I built it with assistance from some top quality trades, my expectations were high. The care in metal bending techniques was evident in both the functionality and aesthetics of the new finishes. Everything was completed to an exceptionally high standard. (My neighbour liked it so much that he decided to have his garage done by this crew.) I even noticed a bottle of windex onsite, which explains the immaculate look of the flat black, smooth surfaces!
I have an eye for quality workmanship in this area, because my last aluminum contractor (now retired) did this type of custom work on my last workshop and house. I've met a few contractors who were not convincing on the custom bending parts of this job. Jacob is truly a master and I feel fortunate that he was able to complete this job, provide smart recommendations, and exceed my high standards.
There are a lot of "hacks" in this field. Armstrong & Nelson and especially Jacob and his crew, are professional, courteous, and clean. Above all, their quality workmanship is well worth it!
