SECTIONAL GUTTERS
Premier Sectional Gutter Installation Specialists
Sectional gutters are a popular gutter system to DIY because they don’t require any special equipment to install. However, like any gutter system, it is crucial to do so with precision. Sectional gutter systems are made up of several small segments of gutter which are then joined together to form a larger section. Because of their many joints and seams, there is a greater potential for leaks and cracks if the segments of your gutters are misaligned or not properly joined together.
Homeowners like the idea of sectional gutters because they are more affordable than other gutter systems. At Rival Roofing, we want to ensure that you get the best quality products that are properly installed. We’re happy to go over the pros and cons of sectional gutters. And if they are the right choice for you, we’d love to install your new sectional gutter system to ensure that it works for your roof and lasts for years.
What to Know About Sectional Gutters
Sectional gutters are pieced together and have multiple seams where they meet at connectors. Each corner piece and end cap connect each side, but leaking is not uncommon given the number of seams. Debris can also get trapped at the seams. However, these gutters are an affordable option to install the necessary gutters on your home. We also have experience with gutter guards, which are fantastic for preventing blockage in your gutter system.
FAQs about Sectional Gutters

Can I DIY sectional gutters?
It is possible to purchase sectional gutters at your local home improvement store for DIY use. However, when you install your own gutters, you risk misaligning the sections or damaging the gutters. Having a professional gutter installer will ensure your gutters are properly installed and backed with a workmanship warranty!
How much do sectional gutters cost?
The final cost of your sectional gutter installation will depend on the size of your home and the type of material your gutters are made of. You’ll find sectional gutters are most commonly made of aluminum, vinyl, or steel. Our team is happy to help go over the options that will best fit your budget.
Can sectional gutters be repaired rather than replaced?
Minor damages to your gutters, such as small cracks or holes, can often be repaired. Larger cracks, broken joints, or sagging are more severe and will likely require a replacement. Our team will come to inspect your current gutter system to help you make the most cost-effective decision.
How long does it take to install sectional gutters?
Gutter installation can take a day or two, depending on the size of your home. Homeowners often do not need to be home during installation!
What are some of the disadvantages of sectional gutters compared to other gutter systems?
Over time, sectional gutters may weaken due to varying weather conditions. The constant contraction and expansion of the gutter segments can impact the seams of your gutter system, which will then need to be repaired or replaced.

Ramiro and the crew at Rival Roofing recently completed my new roof. I am thrilled with the results! I couldn’t be more pleased with the job that they did!! They were professional, hard-working, courteous and cleaned everything up. I couldn’t … More recommend them more!
-
Ramiro and his crew are awesome! They helped me from start to finish. All the questions I had were answered promptly, no waiting around wondering what’s going on. Either over email phone or text Ramiro was always there. They came in and … More knocked out my job before I even knew it. Plus they left my yard and house cleaner than it has looked in years. I got five estimates, two didn’t bother to get back to me even after calling. Ramiro got the fully itemized to me the next day! I would recommend to anyone needing a roof, siding, done by a professional at a competitive price. Thanks to your whole crew, very happy with everything.

I personally prefer smaller companies as they work entirely without error! Rival Roofing and the owner shown me that. The feedback and direct communication was clear on the work that we agreed upon. Definitely recommend this company and … More its workers for anyone!

I had shingles flapping and flying off in a terrible wind. This is on a 2nd house in an area new to me and I didn't know who to call. I called several roofers who either were not doing repairs or would come in 2 weeks! When I called … More Rival and left a message, Ramiro called right back and came that same day to take a look. Then he came to fix it on a Saturday morning at 7:30 as I was going to be leaving to go home. He was very professional, very nice and explained what the problem was with the installation of the roof. I haven't been back but am confident that Ramiro would stand by his work and come back if I needed him to. I would certainly use him again as I felt he was very trustworthy and honest and a very hard worker! I hope he will still be around when I need a new roof!
Thanks so much, Ramiro -
9/16/23 paid Ramiro over half to install gutters, he told me he would have done 1 week 1/2 later - no word - 10/2 texted Ramiro 4 times when is he going to install gutters - NO RESPONSE - 10/3 Ramiro responds with excuses, workers no show … More (NOT MY PROBLEM) but his father will help him. 10/4 some gutters installed but raining & slippery on ladder, Ramiro asks to finish later & informs me wrong color end caps were ordered. 10/5 I texted Ramiro for update & when he's returning to finish - NO RESPONSE - 10/9 A.M.I texted Ramiro asking for update - Ramiro responds he will finish 10/10, finally completed. 11/3 I noticed a gutter on side of my house is leaking on the end cap side, I immediately sent a text and video of this to Ramiro requesting he tend to this with NO RESPONSE. I called over the weekend leaving several voicemails, nothing. 11/6 I texted Ramiro again asking if he was going to take care of the leak along with another voicemail & NO RESPONSE. So with that being said I'm very disappointed as a customer and since Ramiro continues to ignore me, it is clear he does not stand behind his work.

Exceptional to work with. Pleasantly surprised.
Starting with the quote through all steps and processes of the job and clean up.
Ramiro and his crew are fantastic.
Called Rival Roofing. Contacted Ramiro, had and in-person quote appointment … More that day and itemized, printed quote within two days. Unlike several competitors that took two weeks just for the in-person meet. Let alone an itemized written quote.
Several others just gave a basic quote using satellite google.
They evidently didn't want my business.
An extremely satisfied client. -
Horrible company. I had them replace the roof on my house and garage because of hail damage. Since this was an insurance job they had a deadline that they had to finish the job by. Ramiro was aware of this and he agreed it would not be … More a problem to get it done before the insurance companies deadline. They did not start the job till months after the deadline. When the materials were delivered I had noticed that they were the wrong color. I contacted Ramiro about this and sent him pictures and he said he would look into it. When they finally showed up to install the new roof they never had the decency to let me know they were coming. When I got home from work that night I discovered they put the wrong color up even though I had told them it was the wrong color before. The house and garage did not match, one was charcoal gray and the other is white, it is a city ordinance that all roofs have to match, this is something they should know as"professionals".I called Ramiro and he would not answer and would not respond to texts. He finally contacted me about 5 months later looking for the other half of the payment. I told him I would not pay him because they put the wrong color on the garage, there were holes in the new roof were they missed screwing down the roof, there was a damaged panel on the house roof , thay had damaged a light on the garage, they pulled the outlet out of the wall were there battery chargers plugged into and they never cleaned up the job site. I had a garbage pile in my back yard that I had to keep cleaning up every time it was windy out. He agreed to fix everything but I had to pay the second half first because he could not afford to buy the replacement materials to finish the job. I had no choice but to pay him, they replaced the garage roof and picked up the garbage. Ramiro told me we would do a walk through to make sure everything was ok, i contacted him about the final walk through and no response, they disappeared and could not reach them. They never finished the job and never did anything to fix the damages that they caused. Rival roofing will not return my phone calls so I sent them a certified bill for the damages to my house. I gave them a deadline to pay the bill. They never payed the bill so I sent them to a collections agency, they have spoken to Ramiro and he will not return there calls either. Now I am out of pocket for the damages they caused.
This review is just a shortened version of what all went on. To sum it up Ramiro is a dishonest crook that took advantage of someone in a bad spot. Rival roofing is unprofessional , incompetent and will not take responsibility for there mistakes and shortcomings. -
Ramiro showed up when he said he would. The price was fair and he did very nice work. I’ve already recommended him to my neighbors!
-
The owner is such a humble guy and his team is full of hard working people. I recommend Rival Roofing to anyone needing roof work done.
-
I had Ramiro and the crew at Rival roofing replace my shingles and I cannot say enough good things about the experience , the whole project they were attentive, answered any and all of my questions and got the job done in a timely manner. … More I will always call Rival roofing in the future for any of my needs

Ramiro has a great roofing company with hard working employees. He was able to give me the best price for the roof replacement and still do an excellent job installing the new roof. The old roofing material was removed and the new shingles … More and vents were installed in less than five hours.
Ramiro and his crew are the best. -
My sister and I just recently used Rival Roofing for residential snow removal. We each met with Ramiro to discuss our needs. We felt he seemed to be a hard working, reliable, and trustworthy young man.
With this recent snowfall, he did … More a great job on both of our properties!
We liked that he has big equipment to handle a very large snow event— which does occur in Minnesota. He also shoveled our walkways, by our mailboxes, as well as some of the driveway near our back doors/ garage.
We like that he responds to our texts— and we feel he will be responsive in the event our driveways need clearing for important doctor appointments.
We highly recommend Rival Roofing, and are very pleased! -
they do the jobs right and fast, all around professionals
