Olympia Roof Pros provides professional gutters & downspouts in Olympia, WA for residential and commercial properties across Thurston County and the south Sound. Gutters in Olympia are a maintenance item that people buy as a construction item, and that is where the money goes wrong. Under a fir and cedar canopy, the metal is not usually what failed. Three years of accumulated needles and grit sitting in the trough is what failed.
Building owners around here already treat it that way. An agency schedules gutter and drain clearing under a service contract because deferred maintenance is a visible budget line that somebody has to sign for, and the buildings whose gutters get cleared twice a year outlast the identical buildings next door whose gutters do not, by years rather than months. Nobody has to sign for a homeowner's deferred maintenance, which is exactly the problem.
So we quote gutter work as two numbers instead of one, and we tell homeowners which one matters. The first is the metal: five or six inch continuous-run aluminum in a heavier gauge, hidden hangers screwed into rafter tails at two feet rather than spikes, and a gutter apron tucked behind the drip edge. The second is a scheduled clean, and it is the one that decides the outcome.
Given a fixed budget, spend it on the second. A well-maintained standard gutter outperforms an oversized neglected one, and if you can only afford one of the two on a house under conifers, we would rather rehang and reseal what you have and put you on a fall and spring visit than sell you a larger system that fills at the same rate.
Downspout discharge is the part that damages the house rather than the roof. In this soil, water dumped at the foundation finds the crawl space, and a downspout that terminates two feet from a wall into a splash block is doing half a job. We extend to a drywell, a curb line or an existing tightline and we check that the tightline is not already choked with roots before we connect anything to it.
The seam between gutter and fascia is where we usually find the real damage, and it is why we survey the woodwork before quoting metal. Hanging new gutter on a soft fascia board is a two-year repair, so if the board has gone, that gets priced as its own line and you can see exactly what it costs. The metal is easy, and the wood underneath it is the actual job.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — quarter-inch-per-foot tapered polyisocyanurate cut to a drain-point layout, edge metal carrying an ANSI/SPRI ES-1 test rating with fastening to match, hot-air-welded thermoplastic seams probed by hand with a dull hook, two-inch core cuts patched and logged against a numbered roof plan, 24-gauge Kynar 500 standing seam on floating expansion clips, six-nail fastening set inside the manufacturer's published nail zone — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Olympia and nearby communities including Lacey, Tumwater, Yelm, Tenino.

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 quarter-inch-per-foot tapered polyisocyanurate cut to a drain-point layout, edge metal carrying an ANSI/SPRI ES-1 test rating with fastening to match, hot-air-welded thermoplastic seams probed by hand with a dull hook, two-inch core cuts patched and logged against a numbered roof plan, 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 Olympia 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 Thurston County and the south Sound means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Olympia Chooses Olympia Roof Pros
- ✓We quote your summer date and your November date side by side, because in a capital city the dry weeks are sold against a public bid calendar and the gap between those two prices is real money you should get to decide about.
- ✓Every scope carries unit prices for sheathing, blocking, fascia and flashing before the tear-off starts, the way a public change order has to be written, so nothing on your job gets renegotiated from the top of a ladder.
- ✓We will tell you that nobody owes you prevailing wage on a private house. If a bid quotes the published Thurston County rate at you as a justification, that is a public works number being used as a sales line.
- ✓We do not install new concrete or clay tile in this market. The bench that can flash and maintain it properly is thin here, and we would sooner turn the work down than leave you with a roof nobody local will service.
