What we do

Gutters that keep pace with a flat-lot downpour

Central Ohio's spring storms drop serious water fast, and the flat lots most Columbus homes sit on give that water nowhere obvious to go. An undersized gutter here does not fail gradually; it sheets over the front edge in the first big cell of April and soaks the same foundation corner every time. Sizing to the real roof area, not the builder default, is the fix, and it is the first thing we calculate.

Tree cover splits the guard question neatly by neighborhood: heavy in Clintonville and Worthington, nearly absent across the newer rings. We recommend guards where they earn their cost and say so plainly where they will not.

A Columbus gutter quote from us reads like a drainage plan, because that is what it is: run lengths and sizes with the catchment math shown, downspout positions with where each one discharges, guard recommendations tied to your actual trees, and fascia condition noted before anything hangs on it. Free inspection first, written number after, no payments until the water is tested and moving.

Capacity math, per run

The builder five-inch on a big two-story roof is why the front walk floods every April. We compute each run against its real catchment and upsize where the number says to.

Guard honesty, street by street

Clintonville's canopy justifies guards; a treeless Lewis Center lot does not. The recommendation follows the trees, not the sales margin.

Downspouts on flat lots

Flat ground needs deliberate discharge: extensions, splash management or tie-ins that move water away instead of letting it pond by the slab.

Wind-firm hanging

Open-lot gusts work loose what was hung casually. Hanger spec and spacing here match the exposure, and every run is water-tested for fall.

Gutters in this metro

Sizing against the April cell

Design for the worst hour of the year

Columbus gutter systems live or die by a handful of spring storms that drop rain faster than any average suggests. A system that handles the year's other fifty-one weeks and fails in that hour has failed at its whole purpose. The foundation only needs soaking a few times. We size each run against peak rate for its actual catchment, which routinely means six-inch where a builder installed five.

Flat lots hide their drainage sins

On sloped ground, water leaves; on the flat lots of the newer rings, water goes exactly where the downspouts put it and stays. Ponding beside a slab is a settlement and moisture problem on a slow fuse. The unglamorous half of our installs is extensions and discharge routing, the part invisible in photos and decisive in basements.

Exposure works on hardware too

The same open-ground wind that stresses siding rattles gutter runs, and hangers that were adequate on day one loosen a season at a time. We hang for the exposure (tighter spacing, better hardware) because a gutter's real spec is not the metal profile, it is what fastens the metal to the house.

The subdivision default, revisited

Most Columbus gutter systems were installed by production math: one profile, one downspout count, whatever the framing schedule allowed. Twenty-five years later the houses have mature landscaping, finished basements and patios that change where water can acceptably go. A replacement is the low-cost moment to redesign discharge around how the property is actually used now. We treat it as a drainage rethink, not a like-for-like swap.

Winter's short, sharp test

Central Ohio winters are milder than the gutter belt's worst, but the January thaw-freeze whiplash loads runs with ice exactly when the metal is most brittle. Hidden hangers at proper spacing and a correctly pitched run shed that test; the spike-and-ferrule systems still on many older houses fail it a little more each year.

If your gutters still hang on visible spikes, that alone dates the system past twenty-five years, and re-driving the spikes each spring is maintenance on borrowed time. Modern hidden-hanger replacement costs less than most homeowners expect, and it ends the seasonal re-driving for good.

What happens next

How a gutters job runs

  1. Free inspection

    Roof area, pitch, tree cover, and where the water is currently ending up, which is the part most quotes skip.

  2. Sizing and quote

    Gutter and downspout sized to the roof draining into them, in writing, before anything is rolled.

  3. Rolled on site

    Seamless lengths formed on the drive to the exact run, so the only joints are at the corners and the outlets.

  4. Hung and water-tested

    Hangers, pitch, outlets and downspouts routed away from the foundation, then water put through it to prove the fall.

I chose Coldstream exteriors for a new roof on my house in July 2026. The sole reason I chose Coldstream was Project Manager Ricky Waller. Ricky did a complete excellent inspection and explained everything to me all through his inspection. I had worked in roofing myself part time apart from my Railroad job when I was a young man so I new what was being explained to me by Ricky was completely true and honest and at the same time Ricky was as if I were dealing with a friend. I was extremely pleased with his oversight throughout the process. In short Ricky was the sole reason I chose Coldstream.

Dominic from Coldstream exteriors came out very quickly after my front gutter was taken out by a storm. He assess the damages and we determine that it was cheaper to self-pay than the insurance. I ask him to check the rope because my Handiman said it probably needed to be replaced. Dominic went over it with the fine tooth comb and all the gutters and indeed it was 18 years old. I also had him inspect all the gutters and he gave me a great estimate and a very quick turnaround time. Dominic was there and my roof was done within like a week and two or three days. The folks that work for him were excellent. They cleaned up they showed up and did an outstanding job oh my neighbor stopped by to tell me what a great job they did. Also, Dominic showed up often at the job and even called to check to see how things were going. You couldn’t ask for a better company. There’s too many fly-by-night roofers that use subcontractors and Coldstream is not one of them. They are Christian company which I very much appreciate it. You cannot go wrong with them. I did my homework and checking reviews, and they were highly committed by my insurance companies personnel, thank you cold stream and Dominic

Very good experience working with coldstream exteriors. I had tornado and hail damage to the roof and siding. It was a long process to no fault towards the company as the damage was severe and wide spread throghout the area creating delays and material shortages. The project manager Kevin was very easy to work with and respnded promptly with any inquires i had. It was a very good experience working with this company. I will be back for any work needed in the future.

Working with Coldstream Exterior turned out to be an excellent choice to replace my flat roof. From my first enquiry I received prompt responses, clear answers, and total detail oriented service from Ricky (manager) and Greg (owner), who were amazing to work with. The job was done in a timely and highly professional manner that left my roof looking great. I will definitely recommend the company.

I recently had a new roof (along w/ gutters, soffits, etc), new windows, as well as new siding, installed on my house, & I couldn’t be happier that I chose Coldstream for the job…I first contacted Ben about a year ago when my husband & I decided to have the work done, and he was beyond patient with us and made the process much easier than we anticipated. He was always quick to respond to answer all of our questions and handle any of our concerns. The project managers for each specific job were very communicative, and always checked in to ensure we were happy with the work, and the work ethic and skill level of the contractors & crews was absolutely unmatched…I can’t say enough about this. I have already recommended them to a family member, who is soon to have a siding project completed by them, and would absolutely recommend them to anyone else I know looking for exterior repair/remodeling.

If I could give 10 stars for Jonathan Bernhard and Coldstream Exteriors, I would. I have owned many rental properties over the last 40 years so I have had to have roof work done on bunch of occasions. Those have always been stressful experiences because, I cannot physically get up on the roof to see what needed to be done and then, once it was completed, I couldn’t tell if it was done right. It was hard for me to tell if the contractor was being honest. Jonathan at Coldstream made my latest roof replacement process a breeze! It was a big job on a large apartment building so I got several quotes and his was right in line with the others but he went out of his way to make sure I understood the work that needed to be done. As the work progressed, he sent me pictures of the condition of the roof and what needed to be replaced. That constant and complete communication made me confident that he was being honest. He did such a good job, I immediately hired him to do some preventive maintenance on the roofs on 2 other buildings. Save yourself some stress...call someone you can trust...call Jonathan at Coldstream!

We are very pleased with our new roof. Ricky, who provided the free estimate, also managed the project from scheduling to final review of the project. We were really relieved when our estimate from Coldstream was the lowest of the ones we received, because we were the most comfortable and confident with this company. Ricky communicated effectively and quickly via text. The crew was friendly and efficient and took special care to protect the landscaping and garden ornaments around the house. I also liked that in addition to a sample of the asphalt tiles, we were provided a link to online software that showed us what the house would look like with the various color choices. The final result looked exactly like the AI picture.

Really great experience with Ben and his crew, from our first meeting until job completion. We had been planning a siding project for years and just assumed that we’d go with replacement vinyl, with James Hardie cost being out of reach. Coldstream offered a better product and craftsmanship at a surprisingly great price. We are thrilled that we explored this option and have already received countless compliments on the overhaul of our home exterior. I would highly recommend Coldstream Exteriors for siding and gutter projects and will very likely work with them in the future for any other needs.

From my initial inquiry to Coldstream, I felt the process for a roof and gutter replacement went smoothly. I worked with Ben directly and he was very helpful in explaining the process, products, warranty options etc. He even dropped off sample shingle boards as we were deciding between a few colors and I tend to need something more visual than a website when choosing. The crew was on time every day and Ben touched base daily and notified us of any damaged wood that was encountered as well as sent pictures, and they cleaned up daily. The gutter product is great and has gutter guards included (less leaves clean out in the fall!). We are very pleased with the product and service.

My experience with Coldstream Exteriors and specifically Tyler was nothing but exceptional. My roof of 15 years started to leak, and I knew I likely needed a complete roof installation as opposed to a quick repair. My experience with the company that did my last roof installation was horrific, and I was apprehensive when choosing a new company. After doing extensive research on the internet, I filled out an online form for Coldstream Exteriors and Tyler reached out to me within a day. Since our home is a three-story home with a steep pitched roof, he wanted to coordinate with one of his installers to give a thorough look and ensure an accurate estimate of which I was appreciative. Tyler provided an estimate with three different options of shingles to use at various cost points. I decided to go with the high-end shingles, and we scheduled the installation within the next week. The team that did the installation was top-notch. The installation took a full day and a half and they ensured all the materials were cleaned up post. The roof looks great and I would not hesitate to use Coldstream Exteriors for any future services. They are so very deserving of their 5-star review ratings.

This is my fourth project with Coldstream Exteriors and Ricky (Project Manager). My first three projects (Roof/Siding/Gutters) went wonderful about a year ago. The teams were professional, tidy, efficient, and afterwards, not a mess in sight. The roof in particular really makes my house stand out and and I couldn't be happier. For my fourth project, I am matching color on my eaves to that of my room and gutters and I will be wrapping my front door (also to match color) and it was a no-brainer to go with Ricky and Coldstream. He worked with me on price (very helpful), and I couldn't be more excited to see how it turns out. I am quickly turning a nearly 60-year-old home into a brand new home on the exterior. Very appreciative of the extent that Ricky is working with me to accommodate my asks and he is elite with his customer service. Thank your Ricky/Coldstream!

Doing business with Dominic and Coldstream have been one of the best that I’ve worked with. Dominic was very thorough with what he was doing. Had a lot of good suggestions his crew works fantastic. I have nothing bad to say about any of it. On Friday when they came out again to finish up, the people that they brought to clean up was fantastic. OK they actually went over the yard for five times picking up nails or any debris that was left behind could not say more about the company then I would highly recommend it to anyone who needed a roof done or an honest opinion about what was wrong with your roof Thank you for such a great job

Good to know

Common questions

Why do my gutters overflow only in spring?

Spring cells drop the year's highest rain rates. A system that keeps up all summer can still be undersized for April. Capacity is set by the worst storm it will meet, not the average one.

What do new gutters cost on a Columbus two-story?

Linear footage, size, downspout count and guard choice set the number, and the honest version comes from measuring, not from a per-foot guess over the phone. The written quote is free and holds unless scope changes.

Do I actually need guards?

Look up: real overhanging canopy, probably yes; young subdivision landscaping, probably not for a decade. We give the street-specific answer instead of one pitch for everyone. When the answer is yes, we spec the guard type to the debris your trees actually drop, because needle litter and broadleaf load defeat different designs.

Can gutters be fixed rather than replaced?

A dropped hanger or a single leaking corner, certainly. Multiple failing seams, rust lines or pull-away along a run mean the system is at end of life, and patching it buys months, not years.

How long is the install?

Most Columbus homes are one day: runs rolled on the driveway in the morning, hung and tested by the afternoon, old material hauled away.

What color and profile options are there?

K-style in the standard aluminum palette covers most Columbus homes; half-round and copper exist for the historic streets that want them. We bring samples to the inspection so the choice happens against your actual trim color, not a website swatch.

Which Columbus neighborhoods do you install gutters in?

All of them, from one Galloway dispatch: the subdivision rings of Dublin, Hilliard, Westerville and Grove City where sizing corrections are the usual job, the treed streets of Clintonville and Worthington where guards earn their keep, and the historic blocks where half-round is the right look. Same-week inspections most of the year, stretching slightly in the spring rush.
