Gutter, Fascia and Roof Repair in Lincolnwood

Some of the most expensive water damage starts with a small missing part. On a Lincolnwood home we found the gutter apron, the strip of metal that guides water from the roof into the gutter, was missing, so water was soaking the fascia boards behind it. Details like that are what we look for on every inspection. We're a short drive from our Belmont Cragin shop.

Gutter apron installation

Lincolnwood, IL

The problem: The homeowner said water dripped behind the gutter when it rained, and the gutters were pulling away from the fascia.

What we found: We inspected the fascia and found the gutter apron was missing. We took pictures, showed the homeowner what we found, explained what it needed, and fixed it.

How we fixed it: We installed the missing gutter apron behind the gutter and secured the gutter back to the fascia so water runs into the gutter instead of behind it.

Homes we work on here

Lincolnwood is mostly mid-century brick ranch homes and split-levels, with some newer custom homes. Roofs are typically low-slope asphalt shingle with long gutter runs and wood or aluminum fascia.

Problems we fix most in Lincolnwood

  • Missing gutter apron and rotted fascia. Water runs behind the gutter and rots the fascia board. We install the apron and repair or wrap the fascia.
  • Old gutters. Gutters that sag, leak at the seams or pull away. We replace them with seamless gutters.
  • Missing shingles on low-slope roofs. Wind lifts shingles at the edges. We replace them and secure the edge.
  • Discontinued 3-tab shingles. Many older roofs here are 3-tab, which most manufacturers no longer make. We'll tell you when a patch can't match.

Lincolnwood FAQ

What is a gutter apron?

A strip of metal under the bottom row of shingles that directs water into the gutter instead of behind it.

My fascia is soft. Do I need new gutters too?

Not always. If the gutters are in good shape, we fix the fascia and rehang them. If they're old, replacing both at once saves a second trip.

Do you install seamless gutters?

Yes, with downspouts and gutter guards.
