Burlington Roof Pros provides professional gutters & downspouts in Burlington, NC for residential and commercial properties across Alamance County and the central Piedmont. Gutters are the part of a Burlington roof that fails first, they fail in winter, and almost every gutter sold in this county is specified for rain when the load that eventually takes the whole run off the house is ice rather than water.
The numbers are not close. Water standing in a five-inch trough weighs a little over two pounds per running foot. Pack that same trough solid with ice and hang a fringe of it off the front lip, which is exactly what a freezing rain event does over two days, and the hangers are suddenly holding something closer to forty pounds a foot on a board that may be forty-five years old.
So we hang them for the worst day of the year rather than the average one. Hidden hangers on twenty-four inch centers, not the thirty-six that the trade defaults to, screwed through the fascia and into a rafter tail wherever we can find one. No spikes, no ferrules, no reusing the original holes, and no hanging new gutter on old wood without probing it first.
We usually recommend five-inch over six-inch on houses, which is the exact opposite of the standard upsell. Six-inch carries more water and it also carries a great deal more ice, and on original fascia the larger trough is a liability rather than an upgrade. Outlets go to three by four regardless of trough size, because outlet area is what actually clears slush when a thaw arrives all at once on a Tuesday afternoon.
We do not sell gutter guards in this county and we will tell you exactly why. A screen or reverse-curve cover gives freezing rain a continuous surface to build on, the resulting ice bridges the trough completely, and then hangs off the front edge as dead weight your hangers were never asked to carry. Two cleanings a year cost less and work better.
Downspouts get strapped every six feet, discharged well clear of the footing, and never dumped onto a lower roof plane where they will freeze into a sheet. Where a run is long we would rather add a second outlet than fit a bigger downspout, because two independent paths keep draining when one of them ices closed. Extensions and splash blocks are included in the price rather than sold as an afterthought.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — spike-and-ferrule hangers pulled through by glaze weight, hidden hangers screwed on twenty-four inch centers, five-quarter primed fascia stock back-primed on six faces, 0.032 aluminum drip edge lapped over the underlayment, eave protection membrane run well up the deck at the overhang, ring-shank nails set flush in the marked nail zone — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Burlington and nearby communities including Graham, Mebane, Elon, Gibsonville.

Materials, equipment and how we do gutters & downspouts
The difference between gutters & downspouts that lasts and gutters & downspouts that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with spike-and-ferrule hangers pulled through by glaze weight, hidden hangers screwed on twenty-four inch centers, five-quarter primed fascia stock back-primed on six faces, 0.032 aluminum drip edge lapped over the underlayment, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Burlington job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Alamance County and the central Piedmont means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
