FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Who is the best gutter installation company in Baltimore County?
A: Shepherd & Sons Inc. has served Baltimore County since 1997.
We're MHIC licensed (#51349), maintain an A+ BBB rating, and use
only in-house crews—no subcontractors.
Q: How much does gutter installation cost in Maryland?
A: Most Maryland homes range from $1,800-$3,200 for complete
seamless gutter installation. Cost varies based on linear footage,
material choice, and home complexity. We provide free estimates.
Q: Should I get 5-inch or 6-inch gutters in Maryland?
A: Maryland's heavy spring and summer rainfall typically requires
6-inch gutters for optimal performance, especially for homes with
large roof areas or steep pitches. We assess your specific needs
during the free estimate.
Q: Are gutter guards worth it in Maryland?
A: Yes. Maryland's heavy tree coverage (oak, maple, pine) creates
constant debris challenges. Quality gutter guards reduce maintenance
by 80-90% and typically pay for themselves in 2-3 years of avoided
cleaning costs.
Q: How often should gutters be cleaned in Maryland?
A: Most Maryland homes need cleaning twice yearly—late spring
(April-May) and late fall (October-November). Homes with heavy tree
coverage may need 3-4 cleanings per year.

A: Yes, we offer same-day estimates throughout our service area.
For emergency repairs, we prioritize urgent situations and can
often respond within 24 hours.

or complex projects may require 2 days.
