Control Roof Runoff Before It Damages Your Foundation

Gutter installation and drainage services for properties throughout Chattanooga, Tennessee

When heavy rainfall hits Chattanooga, your roof sheds thousands of gallons of water in a short time. Without a functioning gutter system, that water pools around your foundation, erodes soil, and can lead to basement flooding or structural damage. Tolli's Construction installs gutter systems designed to control roof runoff for homes across Chattanooga, helping you avoid the costly consequences of poor drainage.

This service includes gutter installation, downspouts, and drainage connections that direct water away from your home. The crew addresses heavy rainfall patterns common throughout Chattanooga and surrounding areas by ensuring proper slope, placement, and water flow. When needed, gutters are connected into drainage solutions that move water farther from your foundation. This work is commonly paired with roofing and siding projects for full exterior protection.

If you need new gutters or want to improve drainage around your Chattanooga property, contact Tolli's Construction to discuss your options.

What a Gutter System Does for Your Property

When you schedule gutter installation in Chattanooga, the crew measures and cuts sections to fit your roofline, then secures them with proper slope to ensure water flows toward the downspouts. Downspouts are positioned to carry water away from vulnerable areas near your foundation. If your property has drainage challenges, the crew can connect gutters into underground or surface drainage systems for better control.

After the installation, you will notice that water no longer cascades off your roof in sheets during storms. Your landscaping stays intact, and you no longer see erosion or standing water near your foundation. The gutter system channels runoff efficiently, reducing the risk of basement moisture and long-term foundation issues.

Tolli's Construction focuses on proper placement and long-term performance, using materials that hold up to the rainfall and seasonal conditions you face here. If you are planning roofing or siding upgrades, gutter installation can be coordinated with those projects for a complete exterior overhaul. This service does not include interior waterproofing, but it does prevent the outdoor water problems that often lead to indoor damage.

Here is what homeowners usually want to know

Gutter projects often raise questions about materials, maintenance, and how the system connects to your property. Here are answers to some of the most common questions that come up before scheduling installation.

What materials are used for gutter systems?
The team typically installs aluminum gutters, which resist rust and hold up well to the weather conditions in Chattanooga. You can discuss material options and colors during your consultation.
How often do gutters need to be cleaned?
You should clean your gutters at least twice a year, especially after fall when leaves accumulate. Clogged gutters overflow and defeat the purpose of the system, leading to the same drainage problems you are trying to avoid.
When should I consider drainage tie-ins?
You should consider drainage tie-ins if water pools near your foundation, if your yard slopes toward your home, or if you have a history of basement moisture. These connections move water farther from vulnerable areas.
What happens if my gutters are not sloped correctly?
Gutters without proper slope allow water to sit and collect debris, which leads to overflow and sagging. Tolli's Construction ensures each section is installed with the right pitch to keep water moving toward the downspouts.
Why is gutter installation often paired with roofing work?
When you replace your roof, it makes sense to install new gutters at the same time because the crew is already working at the roofline. This coordination saves time and ensures the systems work together properly.

Tolli's Construction serves homeowners throughout Chattanooga and surrounding areas who need gutter systems that protect their foundations and prevent water damage.
