When your gutters work properly, you stop worrying about water damage. No more basement flooding during heavy rains. No more foundation cracks from poor drainage. No more landscaping getting washed away.
Your home’s value stays protected. Water flows exactly where it should – away from your foundation, away from your basement, away from your carefully maintained yard.
You get peace of mind knowing your gutters can handle whatever Long Island weather throws at them. From nor’easters to summer downpours, your drainage system works like it should.
Expressway Roofing and Chimney Inc has been installing and repairing gutters throughout Huntington and Suffolk County for over 20 years. We’re the local company your neighbors trust when their gutters fail.
We’ve seen every gutter problem Long Island homes face. From ice dams in winter to clogged systems after storms, we know what works and what doesn’t in this climate.
Our reputation comes from doing the work right the first time. No callbacks, no excuses, no cutting corners. Just professional gutter services that keep your home protected.
We start with a free estimate at your home. We measure everything, assess your specific drainage needs, and explain exactly what your property requires.
Installation happens on schedule. We remove old gutters if needed, install new seamless gutters cut to exact measurements, and ensure proper slope for drainage. All downspouts get positioned to direct water away from your foundation.
We test the entire system before we leave. Water flows properly, joints are sealed, and everything’s secured. You get a clean property and gutters that work immediately.

We install seamless aluminum and copper gutters in 5-inch and 6-inch sizes. We install gutter guards and leaf protection systems that actually keep debris out. Half-round gutters available for historic or custom homes.
Repairs cover everything from loose gutters to damaged downspouts. We fix leaks, replace sections, and realign systems that aren’t draining properly. Emergency repairs available when storms damage your gutters.
Huntington’s coastal climate means your gutters face salt air, heavy rains, and ice. We use materials and installation methods that handle these conditions. Your gutters stay functional through Long Island’s weather extremes.
Quality seamless aluminum gutters typically last 15-20 years in Huntington’s coastal environment, while copper gutters can last 30-50 years. The salt air and moisture from being near the water means regular maintenance extends their life significantly.
The key is proper installation with correct slope and secure fastening. Gutters that aren’t installed properly fail much sooner, often within 5-10 years. We install gutters to handle Long Island’s weather patterns, including heavy rains and ice loading.
Regular cleaning and inspection every few years helps identify small problems before they become expensive repairs. Most gutter failures happen because minor issues weren’t addressed early.
Gutter guards reduce cleaning frequency but don’t eliminate it completely. Quality micro-mesh guards block most leaves and debris while allowing water through. You’ll clean gutters every 2-3 years instead of twice yearly.
Different guard types work better for different situations. Homes with many oak trees need different protection than homes with mostly pine needles. We recommend guards based on your specific property and surrounding trees.
Cheaper guards often cause more problems than they solve. They can trap debris, create ice dams, or restrict water flow. Professional-grade guards cost more upfront but actually work long-term.
Most Huntington homes need 5-inch gutters, but larger homes or those with steep roofs benefit from 6-inch gutters. The bigger size handles more water volume during heavy downpours common in our area.
Roof size, pitch, and local rainfall patterns determine proper gutter sizing. A 2,000 square foot ranch might do fine with 5-inch gutters, while a 3,000 square foot colonial with steep rooflines needs 6-inch gutters to prevent overflow.
Undersized gutters overflow during storms, defeating their purpose. Oversized gutters cost more but handle extreme weather better. We calculate the right size based on your roof’s square footage and pitch.
We offer emergency gutter repairs and can typically respond within 24-48 hours for urgent situations. Storm damage that’s causing active water intrusion gets priority scheduling.
Emergency repairs focus on stopping immediate water damage. We’ll temporarily patch leaks, reattach loose sections, or install temporary downspouts to redirect water. Permanent repairs get scheduled once we can properly assess all damage.
Most storm damage repairs take 4-6 hours once we arrive. Simple reattachment or section replacement happens quickly. Extensive damage requiring new gutter runs takes longer but we work efficiently to restore protection.
Aluminum gutters cost less upfront and work well for most homes. They’re lightweight, won’t rust, and come in many colors. Expect 15-20 years of service with proper maintenance.
Copper gutters cost significantly more but last 30-50 years. They develop a natural patina over time that many homeowners love. Copper works especially well on historic homes or high-end properties where appearance matters.
Both materials handle Huntington’s climate well. Aluminum is practical and economical. Copper is an investment in long-term performance and aesthetics. We help you choose based on your budget and goals.
Gutters need replacement when you see multiple leaks, significant sagging, or rust holes. If repairs cost more than 50% of replacement cost, new gutters make more financial sense.
Age matters too. Gutters over 15 years old with ongoing problems should be replaced. Newer gutters with isolated damage usually just need targeted repairs.
We’ll assess your entire gutter system and give you honest recommendations. Sometimes a few repairs extend gutter life by years. Other times, replacement prevents ongoing maintenance headaches and potential water damage.
