Glen Burnie is one of Anne Arundel County’s largest and most established residential communities. With a high concentration of ranch-style homes, townhouses, split-levels, and older subdivisions, gutter systems here face challenges that are very different from hillier or more wooded areas of Central Maryland.
Flat lots, heavy rain, strong wind-driven storms, and aging gutter systems all contribute to common drainage issues throughout Glen Burnie neighborhoods.
Shepherd & Sons Inc. has been providing professional gutter services to Glen Burnie homeowners since 1997. We understand how water behaves on flatter properties, how coastal-influenced storms affect runoff, and how to design gutter systems that move water efficiently without causing pooling or foundation problems.
If your Glen Burnie home struggles with overflow, clogs, or drainage issues, we’re here to help.

Common Glen Burnie Gutter Problems
Problem: Leaks at Seams and End Caps
Why it happens: Many Glen Burnie homes still have sectional gutters where joints naturally weaken over time.
Solution: We repair and reseal problem areas or recommend seamless gutter replacement to eliminate most leak points altogether.
Problem: Gutters Pulling Loose After Storms
Why it happens: Strong, wind-driven rain common in Anne Arundel County puts stress on older gutter fasteners and brackets.
Solution: We re-secure or replace failing hardware with modern hidden hangers designed to hold up during severe weather.
Problem: Gutters Overflow During Sudden Coastal Storms
Why it happens: Storms moving inland from the Chesapeake often bring short, heavy bursts of rain with strong wind. Older gutters on Glen Burnie ranch homes weren’t designed for that type of rainfall.
Solution: We replace undersized gutters with properly pitched 6" seamless systems that can handle fast-moving water without spilling over.
Problem: Water Dripping Along Brick or Siding Lines
Why it happens: Many homes have original fascia and siding that’s uneven after decades of settling. Even small pitch issues cause water to run behind the gutter instead of into it.
Solution: We reset gutter pitch and attachment points to ensure clean water capture and prevent staining or rot along exterior walls.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from Glen Burnie homeowners
Why does water sit near my house even though my gutters aren’t clogged?
This is very common in Glen Burnie. Many homes sit on flat or low-lying lots, so water doesn’t naturally run away after it leaves the gutter. Even properly functioning gutters can cause pooling if downspouts aren’t long enough or directed correctly.
My gutters overflow during sudden heavy rain, not steady rain — why?
Storms coming through Anne Arundel County often bring fast, heavy bursts of rain. Many older Glen Burnie homes still have 5" gutters that simply can’t handle that volume all at once.
I don’t have many trees — why do my gutters still fill up?
Even without heavy tree cover, Glen Burnie gutters often collect roof granules, grit, and wind-blown debris. Low-slope roofs on ranch homes shed material into gutters over time.
Are gutter guards a good idea for Glen Burnie homes?
They can be, especially for homeowners who want to reduce cleanings. The key is choosing a guard that handles fine debris and doesn’t restrict flow during heavy rain, which is more important here than leaf volume alone.
Can gutter problems cause foundation issues in Glen Burnie?
Yes. Because water tends to linger on flat lots, poorly managed gutter drainage can lead to ongoing moisture near the foundation if not corrected.
