01 / FIELD NOTE

Which roof edges actually need collection?

Gutters do not automatically belong on every linear foot of a home. The assessment should identify contributing roof planes, valleys, concentrated release points, entries, patios, walks, landscaping, visible fascia conditions, and practical downspout routes. The written scope should then show which runs are included and why.

02 / FIELD NOTE

Is 6-inch or 7-inch the appropriate Orlando system?

Six-inch seamless gutters are a premium residential starting point for many Florida homes. Seven-inch capacity may be evaluated for larger or steeper roof planes, tile, long runs, concentrated valleys, or other higher-demand conditions. Gutter size should be paired with compatible outlets, downspouts, fastening, and discharge planning.

03 / FIELD NOTE

How many downspouts and where should they go?

An approximate 30-foot planning checkpoint can prompt a closer review, but it is not a universal layout rule. Roof area, valleys, run length, gutter profile, outlet opportunity, wall routing, doors, windows, walks, landscaping, boundaries, and lower discharge conditions determine the final quantity and placement.

04 / FIELD NOTE

What should be checked at the fascia and roof edge?

Visible fascia condition, roof-edge geometry, alignment, attachment opportunity, tile or shingle projection, and access can affect the installation approach. A wedge or comparable alignment correction is considered only when the accessible conditions and selected system support it. Roofing, structural, engineering, or concealed-condition work remains separate unless included in writing.

05 / FIELD NOTE

How should proposals be compared?

Compare measured scope rather than price alone. Confirm material, profile, color, included runs, downspout quantity and size, removal, guards, soffit or fascia work, access, cleanup, payment schedule, exclusions, and warranty terms. PrimeFlow provides a free, no-obligation property estimate and confirms the project scope before scheduling.
