Gutters and drainage in Pomona
A roof that drains badly rots at the edges first — fascia, soffit, then the ends of the rafters. All of it cheaper to prevent than to replace.

Three questions, then the address. Up to three Pomona contractors who do this work.
Your request is in.
We are matching it now against roofing contractors working in Pomona and the surrounding area.
- Today, usually within the hour. The first contractor calls or texts the number you gave us. ASAP requests go out first.
- Up to three of them, no more. We cap it at three so you can compare without your phone melting.
- They come and look. Estimates are given after somebody has been on the roof, not over the phone.
- You decide, or you do not. There is nothing to cancel and nothing to pay us.
If you do not hear anything today, check your voicemail and spam folder — contractors often call from a mobile number.
Before you let anybody on the roof
The things worth pinning down on a gutters job. A contractor who has not raised them has not looked properly.
- Where the water is discharged, and how far from the foundation
- Gutter size against the roof area draining into it
- Seamless or sectional, and what gauge of aluminium
- Number and position of downspouts
- Condition of the fascia behind the old gutter
Check the fascia before the gutter goes back up. Hanging new metal off soft wood buys you a year.
Downspouts are where most systems actually fail — too few of them, or discharging straight against the foundation.
Size matters more than people think. Five-inch gutter on a large steep roof will overshoot in heavy rain no matter how clean it is.
Locally
Behind it: wind-blown embers landing in the valleys. Most houses lost to wildfire are lost to embers arriving ahead of the fire, not to the fire itself.
About gutters here
What should I do to prepare?
Clear the driveway, protect attic storage from falling dust, and plan for two loud days. Agree in advance where the dumpster goes and who sweeps for nails.
Why three quotes and not one?
One quote is a number with no context. Three gives you a range, and the conversation about why they differ is where you learn what you are actually buying.
Should I repair or replace?
It depends almost entirely on how much life is left in the material. Ask any contractor who inspects it to give you a number of years and a reason. If two of them independently say the same thing, believe it.
What does a new roof cost in Pomona?
Most quotes here for a standard asphalt replacement come in around $12,500 to $28,500. That assumes one layer to remove and sound decking. Every quote you get should say in writing what happens if the decking is not sound.
