I gave a negative review of Gutter King in April of under the name John LI was soon contacted by them and they arranged to remedy the issues to my satisfaction
Pros - They were relatively inexpensiveCons - read on
I had a recommendation and they gave a low quote so I contracted themHere is where they drop the ball: Instead of installing the proper downspout to the next level, they simply carve an "X" to the downspout to create a makeshift flangeAs you can imagine this tremendously restricts the water flow and catches leaves like you wouldn't believeI had to ask them several times to provide a downspout over a foot run where one simply wouldn't doAfter they left I had to add downspouts due to their negligence
As I can not update my previous review, I am updating with a new oneGutters were clogging because the cutouts to the drain pipes were too smallThey responded quickly and enlarged the cutouts which helped tremendouslyIn retrospect I should have given them a chance to resolve the situation before posting a reviewIf you use Gutter King realize they don't use pre-fab down drains, they cut holes in the gutter and screw the downspout to the hole flapsMake sure they make the largest holes possible for each downspoutIf there is a very long section without a drainpipe like I had (75'), make sure they add a downspout as my gutters couldn't handle it and I had to add a downspout myself
