All rain gutter supply companies sell pretty much the same material. The difference in the quality of a rain gutter system is determined by the installation method. At Frank Phillips Seamless Gutters we have years of experience in not only installing our own systems but in repairing the existing rain gutter systems of our competitors. We have learned a lot over the years and have developed a superior installation method that makes our products reliable and maintenance free. We would like to let you know why our gutters are the best.
ALL OUR RAIN GUTTERS ARE INSTALLED UNDER THE METAL DRIP EDGE- Proper installation of rain gutters requires lifting the metal drip edge at the top of the fascia and tucking the gutter underneath. This ensures all roof water runs into the rain gutters and not behind it. This action protects the wood and paint on your home and helps to eliminate the rattling of rain gutters caused by high winds. This important first step in rain gutter installation is often skipped by rain gutter installation companies to save time and effort. At Frank Phillips Seamless Gutters we believe anything worth doing is worth doing right and never skip this important step.
WE USE BETTER HANGING BRACKETS- The most common hidden hangers used in our industry are thin and flimsy. They simply can't hold up to the job and fail over time causing rain gutters to sag, overflow, or simply fall off the house. Many of our competitors use these hangers for one reason only-they're cheap! We don't cut corners at Frank Phillips Seamless Gutters. We only use a superior name brand hanger made of thicker metal with a unique design that gives it unfailing strength and guarantees your rain gutter system will weather the storms for years to come.
WE USE BETTER SCREWS- The most common screw for rain gutter installation is zinc plated. Over time the cadmium in the zinc rust causes the screws to break in half due to the weight of the rain gutter system. This is why we use a very unique high-quality screw designed specifically for rain gutter installation. Our screw is thicker and non-corrosive with a metal washer and rubber gasket to ensure it stays secure for years to come.
WE ADD INTERNAL SUPPORT TO REDUCE SAGGING- Any rain gutter system mounted on a house with a slanted fascia or a 1x2 directly below the shingles is at risk of sagging over time. Sagging rain gutters do not drain, causing them to hold water and debris or overflow, potentially damaging your home. In these situations we install an internal support system to ensure your rain gutters always function properly.
WE USE THE BEST SEALANT- Leaky gutters are a big problem. Over time they can cause your fascia board to rot, causing thousands of dollars in damage. We use only the best high-grade sealant for all our gutter systems. Not only that, we make sure we use plenty of it. Most of our competitors will apply as little sealant as possible to the corners and endcaps to save money. Over time a thin layer of sealant will break down in the Texas sun. We have learned the importance over the years of heavily applying our sealants to ensure that your rain gutter system stays maintenance-free.
WE INSTALL OUR DOWNSPOUTS BETTER- The number one issue we find on service calls for existing rain gutter systems installed by our competitors is downspouts that are coming loose or have fallen off the house. A downspout is held in place by a strip of metal that is anchored to the house and then wrapped around the downspout to secure it. Most of the time this strip of metal is attached to the house by driving a masonry nail into the mortar. This method is used because it is cheap and fast. Often the integrity of the nail is compromised by the force needed to drive it into the mortar and over time it will snap in half or simply come loose. To fix this problem we take the time to pre-drill a hole in the mortar, install a plastic anchor, and attach the metal strap with the same non-corrosive screw we use for rain gutter installation.
At Frank Phillips Seamless Gutters we are obsessed with quality from the drip edge to the downspouts. We would appreciate the opportunity to earn your business and to explain all of our products and services to you in person. We hope to hear from you soon!All rain gutter supply companies offer similar materials, but the quality of a rain gutter system largely depends on the installation method. At Frank Phillips Seamless Gutters, we bring years of experience not only in installing our own systems but also in repairing existing rain gutter systems from competitors throughout Fort Worth. Our extensive knowledge has led us to develop a superior installation method, ensuring that our Fort Worth seamless gutters are reliable and maintenance-free. We would like to share why our seamless gutters in Fort Worth, Texas, stand out.
ALL OUR FORT WORTH GUTTERS ARE INSTALLED UNDER THE METAL DRIP EDGE - Proper installation of rain gutters requires lifting the metal drip edge at the top of the fascia and tucking the gutter underneath. This essential step ensures all roof water flows into the rain gutters rather than behind them, protecting the wood and paint on your home while eliminating the rattling of rain gutters in high winds. Unfortunately, many rain gutter installation companies skip this crucial step to save time. At Frank Phillips Seamless Gutters, we believe that anything worth doing is worth doing right, which is why we never overlook this vital aspect.
WE USE BETTER HANGING BRACKETS - The most common hidden hangers in the industry are often thin and flimsy. They simply cannot withstand the demands, leading to sagging, overflowing, or even detachment from the house. Many competitors resort to these budget solutions, but we take pride in using superior name-brand hangers made of thicker metal, designed for longevity. This means that your seamless gutters in Fort Worth, TX, will endure the elements for years to come.
WE USE BETTER SCREWS - The typical screws for rain gutter installation are zinc-plated, which can rust over time due to cadmium, leading to breakage from the weight of the rain gutter system. We prefer a unique, high-quality screw specifically designed for rain gutter applications, featuring thicker, non-corrosive metal with a washer and rubber gasket to ensure it remains secure for years.
WE ADD INTERNAL SUPPORT TO REDUCE SAGGING - Any rain gutter system mounted on a home with a slanted fascia or a 1x2 below the shingles risks sagging over time. Sagging gutters do not drain properly, which can lead to water and debris buildup and potential damage to your home. To combat this, we install an internal support system that ensures your seamless gutters function optimally.
WE USE THE BEST SEALANT - Leaky gutters can cause significant problems. Over time, they lead to fascia board rot, resulting in thousands of dollars in damage. We use only the highest-grade sealants for our gutter systems and ensure generous application. Many competitors skimp on sealants in corners and end caps to save money, but we've learned that heavy application is crucial for keeping your rain gutter system maintenance-free under the Texas sun.
WE INSTALL OUR DOWNSPOUTS BETTER - The most common issue we encounter on service calls for existing rain gutter systems is downspouts that have come loose or fallen off. Typically, a strip of metal anchors the downspout to the house, often using a masonry nail driven into the mortar—a method that may be cheap, but sacrifices integrity. Instead, we take the time to pre-drill a hole in the mortar, install a plastic anchor, and secure the metal strap with the same non-corrosive screws we use for our seamless gutters in Fort Worth, ensuring a robust installation.
