Mostly for aesthetic reasons. - [Gutter Installation](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/services/gutter-installation/): At Western Mass Gutter Monkeys, we install premium seamless aluminum gutters tailored specifically to your home’s exact dimensions.

In addition to cleaning your gutter system, we will give your home our professional Ten Point Topside Inspection! While we are topside, we provide you with a report on any damage, excessive wear and neglect. - [Ice Dam Damage](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/gutterology-101/ice-dam-damage/): Ice dams are horizontal ridges of ice that form after a snowfall. These ridges prevent melting snow from getting to the gutter system. This water refreezes and the problem quickly compounds and will eventually cause physical damage.  - [Gutter Cover Myths](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/gutterology-101/gutter-cover-myths/): Gutter protection systems are great in theory. But sadly, they are not great in the long run. The gutter screen or helmet systems on the market today work great for the first season or so. But slowly debris (leaves, needles, dirt, and/or sand) will enter the gutter. NOW this muck is stuck and hidden; it builds up slowly. Two or more years down the road, the top of the system also gets covered and or clogged. Manual cleaning is still required to clear the top AND someone has to remove the guards to get to the trapped muck inside. This cleaning process costs more than the savings. - [Dry Well Usage](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/gutterology-101/dry-well-usage/): A dry well is needed when your gutters are clean and the entire drainage system is working properly BUT the drainage does not dissipate and pools in the yard. ​This standing water needs to be collected and routed away from the house. - [Gutter Colors](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/gutterology-101/gutter-colors/): Designer Gutter Colors Available - [Gutter System Definitions](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/gutterology-101/gutter-system-definitions/): Most homeowners rarely (if ever) actually see the components of their homes' roof and gutter system up close. - [Contact Us](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/contact/): Get in Touch Monday thru Friday 8:00am to 4:30pm westernmassguttermonkeys@gmail.com (413) 255-0110 (office)(508) 367-5294 (cell) Western Mass Gutter Monkeys 90 Carver St, Granby, MA 01033 - [Gutterology 101](https://westernmassguttermonkeys.com/gutterology-101/): In our Gutterology 101 series, you'll learn about the things you'll find top side of your house.
