Seamless Gutters in Pacific, MO

Emmendorfer Exteriors installs seamless aluminum gutters in Pacific, MO, formed on-site to the exact length of each roofline so there are no seams to leak. Family-owned since 1990 and a short Highway 50 and I-44 run from Pacific, our in-house crews replace rotten fascia first, then hang 5-inch or 6-inch K-style gutters color-matched to your home.

In Pacific, the gutter matters more than most homeowners realize, because the town sits where the Meramec River bends through the valley and water has nowhere easy to go. A roof with a failed gutter dumps every inch of an eastern Missouri downpour straight against the fascia, the siding, and the soil at your foundation, and in a river-valley town that already runs wet, that is how a soaked crawlspace and a soft fascia board start. When a homeowner off St. Louis Street or up near the Osage Street bluffs finally calls us about water in the wrong place, the trail almost always leads back to a gutter that pulled loose, clogged, or rusted through years earlier.

We started as a roofing company in 1990, and founder Matt Emmendorfer added gutters for one reason: storm customers wanted one crew to fix everything the hail and wind tore up, not three trucks on three different days. Today our in-house family crews bring a portable seamless machine right to your Pacific driveway and roll each gutter out of a single coil of aluminum, cut to the exact run of your roof. That is the real difference from the sectioned, snap-together lengths a big-box store off the interstate sells you, where every ten-foot joint is a future leak waiting on the next hard rain.

How it works

What our gutters includes in Pacific

A gutter job done right starts behind the gutter, not at it. Here is what happens once you approve the estimate.

  1. Inspect the fascia and gutter boards first

    Before a single foot of gutter goes up, we check the wood it hangs on. Old gutters that held water for years usually leave soft or rotten fascia and gutter boards behind them. We show you what we find and replace the bad wood, because new gutter screwed into rotten board pulls right back off in the next storm.

  2. Measure every roofline on-site

    We measure each run of your roof to the inch, then size the system. Most Franklin County homes get 5-inch K-style gutter, but steeper or larger roofs that shed a lot of water fast get 6-inch with oversized downspouts so a hard Missouri downpour does not overshoot the trough.

  3. Roll your gutters seamless from one coil

    Our machine forms each gutter from a continuous coil of aluminum, cut to the exact length of the run. One unbroken piece per roofline means no mid-run seams to leak, the single biggest failure point on sectioned store-bought gutter. You pick the color and we color-match it to your roof and siding.

  4. Hang, pitch, and seal the system

    We hang the gutters with hidden hangers, pitch them so water actually runs to the downspouts instead of pooling, and seal every corner and end cap. Downspouts get placed to carry water away from the foundation, not dump it at the corner of the house where it soaks back in.

  5. Clean to no footprint

    We haul off every scrap of old gutter and magnet-sweep for fallen screws. Customers tell us our cleanup is our signature. We want to get in, do the work, and get out without leaving a footprint in your yard or your gutters full of our debris.

Local angle

Pacific is the most storm-chased town we serve, because it sits right on Interstate 44 at the edge of the St. Louis metro line. After every hailstorm the out-of-county trucks pour in off I-44, knock doors, and disappear once the gutters and roofs are hung. We come the other way, from Union on Highway 50, and we are still here the next season. That matters on gutters specifically because hail and wind dent, crease, and tear gutter and downspout right alongside the roof, and on a Pacific storm claim Tom Emmendorfer documents the gutter damage with the roof, files it together, and meets your adjuster on site so the full scope gets on the record.

FAQ

Gutters in Pacific: questions

Seamless aluminum gutters typically run about $6 to $13 per linear foot installed in this market, so an average Pacific home with 150 to 200 feet of gutter lands roughly in the $1,200 to $2,600 range. Fascia replacement, 6-inch upgrades, and leaf guards add to that. We measure your actual rooflines off Osage, St. Louis, or wherever your home sits and give you a written number first.
Pacific sits in the Meramec River valley, so the ground already runs wet and a single eastern Missouri thunderstorm can drop an inch of rain in under an hour. A clogged or pulled-loose gutter sends all of that against your foundation. Add the spring hail off I-44 and the freeze-thaw winters that warp cheap sectioned gutter, and a weak system gives out fast here.
Often yes, when hail or wind caused the damage, which is common in this stretch of Franklin County. Tom Emmendorfer documents the gutter damage along with any roof and siding damage, files one claim, and meets your Pacific adjuster on site to walk them through it. Under Missouri Revised Statute 407.725, no contractor can pay or waive your deductible, so be wary of any I-44 storm chaser who offers to.
We are a Franklin County family based in Union, a short Highway 50 and I-44 run from Pacific. Many companies that appear for gutters in Pacific are St. Louis metro outfits crossing the county line after a storm with a landing page. We have worked these neighborhoods for decades and respond the same day to a leak.
About 6-inch gutter moves roughly 40 percent more water than standard 5-inch. Most Pacific homes do fine on 5-inch, but larger roofs, steep two-stories up on the ridge, and any home where the gutter overshoots in a hard rain need 6-inch with oversized 3x4 downspouts. We size the system to your actual roof, not a one-price package.
Yes, and we check it before we hang anything. Old gutters that held Pacific rainwater for years usually leave soft or rotten fascia and gutter boards behind them. We replace the bad wood, wrap the fascia in aluminum trim coil so it never needs painting, then hang new seamless gutter on sound board. New gutter screwed to rotten wood pulls right off in the next storm.
