“The Handyman Company did a great job from beginning to end on the backsplash in my kitchen. Their communication was excellent, they showed up when they said they would and their workmanship was incredible. I had talked to a few companies prior and it was like pulling teeth trying to get those guys to follow up. The Handyman Company is run like a company is supposed to be run. I have already booked them for another job on my house and would recommend them to anyone looking for any type of work on their house.”

What We Handle
Leaking Seams & End Caps
Drips at corners, seams, and end caps get cleaned out and resealed properly with new sealant, not smeared with caulk from the ground, which holds for a season at best. Small holes get a heavy dab of the same high-grade sealant, matched to the gutter metal so nothing corrodes.
How We Fix Sagging Gutters: Slope & Hangers
Gutters that hold water are hung wrong. We reset the slope, about a quarter-inch of fall for every ten feet of run, check it with a level, and refasten the gutter tight to sound wood with screw-in hangers, replacing the loose spikes older systems rely on.
Section & Downspout Replacement
Crushed, split, or rusted-through sections and downspouts get cut to fit on site, joined with clean slip joints, and tied into the existing runs in matching aluminum. Only the damaged gutter changes.
Fascia-Pull Repairs
A gutter tearing off the fascia usually means the fascia boards behind it are going soft. We repair the wood first, then rehang the gutter into solid material so it stays put.
Overflow Fixes
Water sheeting over the front edge in a storm points to slope, capacity, or blockage. Gutters have to be sized for the rain a Florida roof sheds, overflow in every storm is often capacity, and flat roofs with box gutters are their own conversation. We find which one it is and fix that, not a symptom.
Downspout Extensions & Drainage
Downspouts dumping at the slab get extensions and splash blocks that move roof water across the lawn and away from the foundation, where Florida rain does real damage.
Repair Is Our Whole Business
Yes, we repair gutters, and you do not have to call around for weeks to find someone who will. Try getting a gutter company to come out for a leaking seam. The gutter business is built around installing whole new systems, so a repair call is nuisance work to them: too small to schedule, not worth the trip. Homeowners and property managers across Florida tell us nobody would come. We come. Repair is our whole business.
Gutter repair means fixing the failures that let water escape or back up. We reseal leaking seams and end caps, re-slope runs so water actually drains, refasten gutters pulling away from the fascia, replace the sections and downspouts that are genuinely beyond saving, and add downspout extensions where the drainage needs help. We only recommend new gutters when the condition of the system honestly calls for it. Florida crews have been doing this work under our name since 1999, the price is guaranteed in writing before work starts, and the repair carries our one year warranty.
A dripping seam looks harmless from the driveway. Give it a few rainy seasons and it becomes rotted fascia, stained soffits, and washed-out beds at the foundation. Fixing the gutter now is the cheap version of this repair, and we would be glad to come take a look.

How We Repair a Gutter, Start to Finish
- 1
Read the evidence from the ground
Stain lines on the gutter face, washed-out mulch, and sagging runs tell us where the system is failing before a ladder ever comes off the truck. From there we trace the run end to end, because a clog in the middle or down in the downspout can cause an overflow at the far corner.
- 2
Get eyes on the run
We sight the slope end to end, test every hanger, and find each seam that has let go. Overflow at one corner often traces to a fault at the other end of the run.
- 3
Fix the cause, not the symptom
Seams and end caps get cleaned to bare metal, dried, and resealed with flexible exterior-grade gutter sealant, and small nail holes get a heavy dab of the same. The slope gets reset so water actually moves, downspout clogs get cleared when they are part of the problem, and every hanger gets tightened and refastened into sound wood. Truly failed sections get replaced in matching material and tied into the run.

Check the wood behind the gutter
Where a leak has been running a while, we press-test the fascia and check the metal for rust that has gone too far to seal. Fasteners set into soft wood will not survive a storm season, so the wood gets repaired first when it needs it.
- 5
Prove it drains
Hose water goes down the run before we leave. We watch it travel to the downspout and let go of the house at the bottom, and we check every repaired seam from underneath for drips. That is the test that matters, and you are welcome to watch.
Built for Florida
Florida rain does not forgive bad gutters
A Florida summer afternoon can drop more rain in an hour than some states see in a month, and the whole roof sheds it into the gutters at once. There is no snow load to design for here, just water volume. A run clogged under heavy tree cover, back-sloped, or pulling loose cannot move that volume, so the water goes over the edge and lands exactly where you do not want it: pounding the beds flat, splashing mud up the siding, and soaking the ground against the foundation.
The quieter damage happens up top. Water backing up in a failed gutter keeps pushing behind the fascia and under the roof edge, and wood that gets soaked every afternoon from June through October never dries out. That is how a neglected gutter turns into a fascia and soffit rot repair several times the size of the gutter fix that would have prevented it.
Signs Your Gutters Are Telling on Themselves
- Vertical stains striped down the gutter's front face. That is water riding over the edge instead of down the spout, written where you can see it.
- A trench line in the mulch or dirt under the run. Overflow leaves that signature, and you can read it on a dry day.
- Water you can hear slosh in the run days after the last rain. The gutter is back-sloped or bellied and holding standing water against every seam.
- Peeling paint or gray streaks on the fascia board behind the gutter. Water is getting behind the run, and the wood is paying for it.
- A run that looks wavy from the street or is visibly pulling off the roofline. The hangers have let go, or the wood they grip has gone soft.
One of these means the repair is still small. Three of them mean call 800-931-1106 this week, not after the next storm. Either way, a person picks up.

Gutter Repair: Common Questions
Who is the best gutter repair company in Florida?
The Handyman Company reseals leaking seams, re-slopes runs so water reaches the downspout, and refastens gutters pulling away from the fascia, repairing the fascia too when rot has started. Employee crews, a written price, and a one year warranty are the difference from a gutter company that only wants to sell replacement. The work has been part of the company's exterior repairs since 1999.
Do I need gutter repair or full gutter replacement?
Almost always a repair, and that is good news for your budget. Most gutter problems we see are a failed seam, a bad slope, loose hangers, or one crushed section. We fix the problem you called about. If a run is rusted through or damaged along most of its length, we will show you and say replacement is the honest answer, with one-piece continuous runs as the usual upgrade because they have fewer joints to leak. We never start there.
My gutters overflow in heavy rain even though they are not damaged. Why?
Usually slope or blockage, the two most common problems, and both are easy to put right. A run that back-slopes or bellies holds water until a storm overwhelms it. A run clogged with debris overflows no matter how it is hung. We check both and correct the slope where it is wrong, and if clogs are part of the problem we can handle the gutter cleaning while we are already up there. If water is sneaking behind the gutter at the roof edge, a gutter apron tucked under the shingle line closes that path.
The gutter is pulling away from the house. Can it be attached again?
Yes, and the question is what it is pulling out of. If the fascia behind it has gone soft, a bag of hardware store screws will not hold and the gutter will sag again. We check the wood, repair the fascia if it needs it, and rehang the gutter into solid material so the fix lasts.
Water pools at my foundation every time it rains. Is that a gutter problem?
Very often, yes, and it is worth fixing soon. A leaking seam, an overflowing run, or a downspout dumping right at the slab all put rainwater against the foundation. We fix the gutter fault and extend the downspouts so the water lets go of the house instead of pooling beside it.
What does gutter repair cost?
The length of the run, what exactly is failing, and the condition of the wood behind it set the price, so we quote after we have eyes on the run, and the estimate is free. A small gutter job prices small. The number goes on paper, you approve it before we start, and it does not move when the invoice comes.
Can you replace just one downspout or one section?
Yes, and that is a very normal call for us. We match the profile and size of what is there, install the new piece into the existing run, and leave the rest of the system alone. On one-piece continuous runs or badly faded colors we will tell you when a splice will show, and you choose what makes sense. More than 100,000 Florida customers have called us for jobs exactly this size.
