Proper gutter systems are more than just an aesthetic addition. Also, they play a crucial role in protecting your home from water damage. They prevent foundation cracks by keeping rainwater from pooling around your home’s base. In addition, gutters reduce landscaping erosion, safeguarding soil, flower beds, and outdoor features from heavy runoff. They also protect exterior surfaces, diverting water away from walls, paint, and siding to maintain both appearance and structural integrity. Moreover, effective gutters limit insect infestations, as standing water left by clogged or poorly functioning systems attracts mosquitoes and other pests. Finally, proper water management prevents mold and rot, keeping wood trim, fascia, and soffit dry, healthy, and long-lasting.

About Our Residential Gutter Installation & Protection Solutions
Gutters are part of your roof system, not a separate decoration. In Houston — where roughly 50 inches of rainfall hit clay soil that moves with moisture — gutters that direct water away from your foundation are doing real structural work. STX Roofing installs, repairs, and replaces gutters across the greater Houston area, with custom-fit sizing, durable materials, and Leaf Blaster Pro gutter guards.
We’re a veteran-owned company headquartered in Huffman, TX. Russell Mullin and Brandon Hilton, both U.S. Air Force veterans, lead the team. Our gutter pricing starts at $7.50 per linear foot — and unlike most Houston roofers, we publish a starting price because we think you should know roughly what to expect before the appointment.
The Importance of Quality Gutters for Your Home
Our Gutter Services in Houston
Gutter Installation
New gutter installations on homes that don't currently have gutters, or that need a complete system replacement. Custom-fit measuring, proper pitch for drainage, and downspouts placed to actually move water away from your foundation.
Gutter Repair
Sagging sections, separated seams, downspout problems, leaks at corners, and damage from fallen branches or wind. Most repairs are same-day or next-day.
Gutter Replacement
Full replacement when patching no longer makes sense — older gutters, hidden damage behind fascia, or systems that were never sized correctly for Houston rainfall volumes.

Seamless aluminum gutters formed on-site to match your home's exact dimensions. Fewer joints means fewer leak points — meaningful in a market that sees 50+ inches of rain per year.
Leaf Blaster Pro Gutter Guards
Professionally installed gutter guards that keep leaves and debris out without choking water flow. Relevant in northeast Houston suburbs (Kingwood, Atascocita, The Woodlands) where pine needle and oak debris is heavy.

Why Gutters Matter More in Houston
Foundation protection in clay soil
Houston’s clay soil expands when it’s wet and contracts when it’s dry. That cycling moves slabs around — and slab movement is one of the most expensive home-repair categories in Texas. Properly sized gutters and downspouts that drain at least 6 feet away from the foundation keep the soil moisture more consistent, which keeps the slab more stable. This is the part most homeowners don’t think about until they get a foundation-repair estimate.
50 inches of rainfall per year
Houston averages around 50 inches of rain annually — significantly more than most of Texas, and concentrated in heavy events rather than spread out. That puts strain on gutter capacity. Undersized gutters overflow, which routes water down the siding instead of away from the house. Our installations are sized for the volume Houston actually delivers.
Fascia and roof protection
Gutters that fail let water saturate the fascia behind them, which rots the wood that supports your roof’s edge. Rotten fascia leads to flashing failures, which lead to roof leaks. The whole chain starts with gutter problems most homeowners ignore until the damage shows up indoors.
Storm wind uplift
Houston roofs face hurricane-season wind uplift on a regular basis. After Hurricane Beryl in July 2024, plenty of gutters were torn off houses across the region. Properly anchored gutters with appropriate hidden-hanger spacing handle high winds. Cheap or poorly installed gutters become projectiles.
Why Choose STX for Gutter Services
Roof and gutters as one system
Many Houston gutter companies only do gutters. Many roofers won’t touch them. We do both — which means when we replace your roof, we can also evaluate and repair (or replace) the gutters in the same visit, with the same crew, under one warranty. Most of our gutter projects happen as part of roof replacements for exactly that reason.
Pricing transparency
Our gutter pricing starts at $7.50 per linear foot. Final pricing depends on linear feet, gutter style, material, downspout count, and any repairs needed to fascia or soffit during installation — but we publish the starting number because you deserve to know roughly what to expect.
Veteran-owned, locally headquartered
Russell Mullin and Brandon Hilton, both U.S. Air Force veterans, lead STX. Our office is in Huffman, TX. We hold A+ BBB accreditation and we’re bondable to $750,000.
Leaf Blaster Pro guards installed correctly
Most DIY gutter guards clog within a year because they weren’t sized or installed correctly for the local debris load. Our team installs Leaf Blaster Pro guards professionally, sized to match your roof’s specific runoff pattern and the debris in your neighborhood.
Where We Install Gutters
STX Roofing services gutters across the greater Houston area and surrounding communities — Huffman, Crosby, Kingwood, Atascocita, Humble, Porter, New Caney, Splendora, Spring, The Woodlands, Conroe, Cypress, Mont Belvieu, Baytown, Pearland, Friendswood, League City, Tomball, and the surrounding cities.
Gutter Materials and Sizes We Install
Most Houston homes get aluminum gutters because aluminum balances cost, durability, and corrosion resistance — important on a Gulf Coast climate. We install:
- Aluminum (the standard for most Houston residential applications)
- Steel (heavier-duty, useful in high-traffic or impact-prone areas)
- Copper (premium, primarily for architectural fit)
Standard residential gutters are 5-inch K-style. Larger homes or homes with high-runoff roof designs benefit from 6-inch K-style for the additional capacity. We measure and recommend based on your roof’s actual runoff math, not a default.
Gutter Services — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does gutter installation cost in Houston?
Our gutter installations start at $7.50 per linear foot. A typical Houston home with around 150 linear feet of gutter runs roughly $1,100 to $1,800 depending on style, material, downspout count, and any fascia work needed during installation. We give you a detailed written estimate after measuring.
What’s the difference between seamless and sectional gutters?
Sectional gutters come in pre-cut lengths joined with seams every 10 feet or so — more leak points over time. Seamless gutters are formed on-site to your home’s exact dimensions, so the only joints are at corners and downspouts. Seamless costs slightly more upfront but typically lasts longer and leaks less, which matters in Houston’s rainfall.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Twice a year for most Houston homes — once in late fall after oak and pine debris drops, and once in spring before storm season ramps up. Homes with heavy tree coverage may need quarterly cleanings unless gutter guards are installed.
Do I need gutter guards in Houston?
Yes if you have pine trees nearby — which describes most of the northeast Houston suburbs (Kingwood, Atascocita, The Woodlands, Memorial). Pine needles clog gutters faster than any other debris because they slip through standard mesh and pack tight. Homes in sparser, less-treed neighborhoods may not need them. We’ll tell you whether guards are worth the investment for your specific situation.
Will gutters void my roof warranty if installed by someone else?
Sometimes, yes — depends on the manufacturer. Some shingle warranties (including GAF’s top tiers) require certified installers for any work on the roof system, and improperly attached gutters can affect that. We’re GAF Master Elite certified, so gutters installed by us stay within the manufacturer-warranty envelope. Worth asking before you hire whoever’s cheapest.
Why is water pooling near my foundation even though I have gutters?
Almost always a downspout extension issue. Your gutters are doing their job — collecting the water — but the downspouts end too close to the foundation. In Houston’s clay soil, that water saturates the soil right next to your slab, which causes the soil cycling we mentioned above. The fix is downspout extensions, splash blocks, or buried drain pipes that move water 6+ feet away. We address this on every install.
Are seamless gutters worth it?
For most Houston homes, yes. Fewer seams means fewer failure points, and seamless aluminum holds up well to the wet/dry cycling our climate puts gutters through. The price difference versus sectional is small relative to the longer service life.
How long do gutters last in Houston?
Aluminum gutters typically last 20 to 30 years in Houston when properly installed and maintained. Steel and copper last longer. Failure usually starts with sealant at the seams (sectional) or at the downspout joints, then progresses to corrosion at the bottom of the gutter.
Can you install gutters when you replace my roof?
Yes, and this is the most efficient way to do it. Our crews can replace the gutters in the same visit as a roof replacement, which means one crew, one warranty conversation, and lower overall cost than scheduling separately.
Do you repair gutters or only replace them?
Both. Many gutter problems are repairs, not replacements — separated seams, sagging sections, downspout issues, and damage from fallen branches are usually fixable. We’ll tell you when patching makes sense and when full replacement is the better investment.
