Hear From Our Clients
Your basement stays dry during nor’easters and spring downpours. No more water pooling against your foundation or eroding your landscaping every time it rains.
Your siding stops showing water stains. Your flower beds don’t wash away. Ice dams quit forming on your roof edges in winter because water flows where it should.
You stop worrying every time the forecast calls for heavy rain. The constant mental checklist of “did I clear the gutters” disappears. You’re not climbing ladders in bad weather or paying emergency rates when things finally give out.
That’s what proper gutter repair does. It removes the problem at the source so you can focus on literally anything else besides whether your home’s exterior is holding up.
Home Team Construction is a family-owned gutter repair company serving Springs and Suffolk County for more than 10 years. We’re licensed, insured, and we don’t use subcontractors.
Every crew member works directly for us. That means you get the same quality standards on every job, whether it’s a simple leak seal or replacing an entire section damaged by coastal storms.
We know what Long Island weather does to gutters. The salt air corrosion near the coast. The freeze-thaw cycles that crack seams. The sudden summer thunderstorms that test every weak point in your system. We’ve seen it all in Springs, and we know exactly how to fix it right the first time.
First, we inspect your entire gutter system. Not just the obvious problem spot. We check for hidden leaks, loose hangers, improper pitch, fascia damage, and downspout issues that might be contributing to the main problem.
Then we explain what we found and what actually needs fixing. No upselling. If you only need new hangers and a pitch adjustment, that’s what we recommend. If the fascia board is rotted and needs replacement before we can secure new gutters, we tell you that too.
The repair itself depends on what’s wrong. Leak sealing and hanger reinforcement usually happen same-day. Section replacement takes longer but still wraps up fast. We test water flow before we leave to make sure everything drains properly.
You get a system that handles Long Island’s 40+ inches of annual rainfall without overflowing, pulling away from your house, or dumping water where it shouldn’t go. And you get our work guaranteed.

We handle everything from minor leak sealing to major structural repairs. That includes resealing joints and seams, replacing damaged gutter sections, reinforcing or replacing loose hangers, adjusting pitch for proper drainage, and repairing or replacing rotted fascia boards.
Springs homes deal with specific challenges. Salt air from the Atlantic accelerates corrosion in older metal gutters. Heavy leaf drop from oak and maple trees clogs systems fast. Winter ice buildup stresses seams and hangers. Nor’easters dump massive amounts of water in short periods, exposing every weak point.
Our repairs account for these local conditions. We use materials that resist salt air corrosion. We make sure your pitch handles sudden heavy rainfall without overflowing. We reinforce attachment points that take a beating from ice and wind.
If you’ve got storm damage, we respond fast. Torn-off sections and major leaks get secured immediately so you’re not dealing with water intrusion while waiting for full repairs. We’re available when Long Island weather doesn’t cooperate with your schedule.
If you’ve got isolated problems—a few leaking joints, some sagging in one section, loose hangers in a specific area—repair makes sense. These issues are fixable without tearing everything down.
Replacement becomes the better option when you’re dealing with widespread corrosion, multiple sections pulling away from the house, extensive fascia damage, or gutters that are simply too small for your roof’s square footage. If we’re patching the same spots repeatedly or the system is 20+ years old with problems in multiple areas, replacement saves you money long-term.
We’ll tell you honestly which route makes sense for your situation. Sometimes a $400 repair buys you another five years. Sometimes spending $1,200 on replacement now prevents you from spending $3,000 on emergency foundation repairs later. We look at the whole picture and give you options that actually fit your home and budget.
Usually it’s a combination of too much weight and failing attachment points. When gutters fill with water, leaves, and debris, they get heavy fast. If the hangers are spaced too far apart or starting to fail, that weight pulls the gutter away from the fascia.
Ice dams make this worse. When water backs up and freezes, it adds significant weight and can literally rip hangers out of rotted fascia boards. Springs homes see this every winter, especially on north-facing roof sections that don’t get direct sun to melt ice quickly.
Sometimes the fascia board itself is the problem. If it’s rotted from years of water exposure, hangers have nothing solid to grip. We check the fascia during every repair inspection because there’s no point installing new hangers into wood that won’t hold them. If the fascia needs replacement, we handle that first so your repair actually lasts.
Simple repairs like sealing leaks or replacing a few hangers usually take a few hours. We can often handle these same-day if you call in the morning.
Section replacement takes longer—typically half a day to a full day depending on how much needs replacing and whether we’re also repairing fascia boards. If we’re adjusting the pitch on multiple sections or dealing with custom cuts around roof features, add a few more hours.
Storm damage repairs get prioritized differently. We’ll secure torn-off sections or major leaks immediately, sometimes within hours of your call, then schedule the complete repair work as soon as possible. The goal is stopping water intrusion fast, then making permanent fixes that last.
Weather affects timing too. We can’t seal joints properly in heavy rain, and we won’t put crew members on ladders in high wind. But we work year-round in Springs and we’re used to finding weather windows to get your repair done quickly.
We repair gutters year-round in Springs. Some repairs work fine in cold weather—replacing sections, reinforcing hangers, clearing ice dams that are causing immediate problems.
Sealants are trickier. Most need temperatures above 40°F to cure properly. If you’ve got leaking joints in January, we can apply temporary solutions to get you through winter, then come back when it’s warmer to do permanent sealing.
Winter repairs are actually common here because that’s when ice dams and snow load expose weak points. If your gutter is sagging under ice weight or pulling away from the house, waiting until spring risks more damage to the fascia and potentially your roof edge.
The bigger issue is safety. We won’t put crew members on icy roofs or ladders in dangerous conditions. But we’ve worked plenty of cold, clear winter days fixing gutters for Springs homeowners who can’t wait until April. If it’s safe to access and the repair is doable in current temperatures, we’ll get it done.
Wrong pitch is the most common culprit. Gutters need to slope toward downspouts at about a quarter inch per 10 feet. If sections are level or sloping the wrong direction, water sits instead of flowing. Over time, hangers shift and pitch changes, especially after ice dams or if someone’s leaned a ladder against the gutter.
Undersized gutters cause overflow too. If your home has a large roof area or steep pitch, standard 5-inch gutters might not handle the water volume during heavy rain. Springs gets sudden downpours where an inch of rain falls in 30 minutes. If your gutters can’t move that much water fast enough, they overflow even when perfectly clean.
Downspouts matter as well. If you don’t have enough downspouts for your gutter length, or if they’re partially blocked below the visible opening, water backs up. We see this often when underground drainage pipes get clogged with years of sediment.
We diagnose the actual cause during inspection. Sometimes it’s a simple pitch adjustment. Sometimes you need an additional downspout or larger gutters. We’ll show you what’s happening and explain the fix that actually solves it.
Simple repairs like sealing a few leaking joints or replacing loose hangers typically run $150 to $400. Section replacement costs more—usually $400 to $800 depending on how much needs replacing and what material we’re working with.
Major repairs involving fascia board replacement, extensive section replacement, or pitch adjustment on multiple runs can reach $800 to $1,500. If you’re dealing with storm damage that requires emergency service, expect to pay for the urgency.
Here’s what affects cost: how much linear footage needs work, whether fascia boards need repair or replacement, material type (aluminum vs. copper vs. steel), accessibility (single-story vs. two-story), and how much damage exists beyond the obvious problem.
We give you an exact price after inspection. No surprises, no “we found more problems” upsells unless we genuinely discover hidden damage that affects the repair quality. Most Springs homeowners spend between $300 and $700 for typical repairs. That’s a lot less than the $4,800 average cost of fixing basement water damage or the $10,000+ for foundation repairs caused by failing gutters.
