Of course we can and do, but the question you need to ask though is if we will attempt to repair.
We do.
You see, I think most customers are so used to things being run a certain way. Your gutter got banged by a tree branch? Rip it all down, and put up new, right? Well, that would be the most profitable for the company (generally they run a markup on the parts). Is it sensible though- for you the consumer? I mean- is it necessary? Fyi, most of the time you can bend the gutter back into shape.
Recently, I received a call asking if we install gutter. Again, of course the answer is yes. However, after asking a few questions, we found out that the downspout had fallen down and needed to be reattached. The only new materials required were new brackets. The thing is, we don't mark up our parts and the cost of labor would be the same whether it was installing a new piece of downspout or using the existing gutter.
We are a service company. We seek to perform our services in the best interest of our customers. If you reside in our area, of course we hope you call on us for your gutter needs. However, if you're outside of Central, Pa and you're reading this, consider asking different questions when scheduling service on your gutters or other home maintenance items.
