Gutter Installation, Repair & Cleaning in Fort Myers Beach, FL
Fort Myers Beach is rebuilding, and a lot of the new homes on Estero Island sit high on pilings with metal roofs and long drops to the ground. A gutter system on a home like that has to handle Gulf storms, salt air and serious wind, and get the water down and away from the pilings and the parking level.
The Brothers That Just Do Gutters install seamless 6″ and 7″ gutters across Fort Myers Beach, from the north end near Bowditch Point to the south end by Big Carlos Pass, plus San Carlos Island. We also clean, repair, and handle downspout drainage, fascia and soffit.
We’re veteran-owned and state-licensed (CBC1270165), and our crews have worked on 35+ Fort Myers Beach homes since 2022.

“Licensed and insured” isn’t a license number
Almost every contractor says it. Very few can show you a state number. A city or county business tax receipt is just a tax registration: no exam, no insurance check, no bond. Only a state license from the Florida DBPR authorizes gutter installation.
Why it matters to you:
- Insurance. If an unlicensed contractor’s work causes damage, your carrier can dispute the claim.
- Liability. Unlicensed crews often carry no workers’ comp. If someone falls off your roof, that can land on you.
- Warranty. An unlicensed contractor’s contract can’t be enforced, so the warranty is worth nothing.
- No safety net. Florida’s Homeowners’ Construction Recovery Fund only covers work by licensed contractors.
CHECK ANY CONTRACTOR IN 15 SECONDS
- Ask for the state license number, not a business tax receipt.
- Search it at myfloridalicense.com under “Verify a Licensee.”
- Make sure it says Current, Active, and the name matches the company on your estimate.

Gutters built for Fort Myers Beach homes
Elevated homes, Gulf wind and salt air change how a gutter system should be designed. We plan every job around them.
Raised and elevated homes
Homes rebuilt on pilings after Ian put gutters 20 to 30 feet up, with long downspout drops that have to be strapped tight against high wind. Our crews work at that height every week.
Salt air and Gulf wind
Right on the water, fasteners and seams take a beating. Seamless runs, sealed joints, hidden hangers and secured downspouts hold up far longer.
Metal roofs
Most rebuilt beach homes have metal roofs, which shed water fast. We size gutters and downspouts to the roof so water leaves the gutter instead of shooting over it.
Getting water off the parking level
Under a raised home, downspout water can pool around pilings and across the parking pad. We route downspouts to drain away from the slab and the stairs.
Rentals and second homes
Many beach homes are vacation rentals or second homes. We can do the estimate and install while you’re away and send photos of the finished job.
Repairs after a storm
If wind has bent, pulled or separated your gutters, we fix what can be fixed and tell you straight when a run is better replaced.

SERVICE AREA
Fort Myers Beach neighborhoods we serve
Every part of the island has its own mix of homes.
- North end. Older cottages and new raised homes near Bowditch Point and Times Square, close to the Gulf and the bay.
- Mid-island. Beachfront and canal homes along Estero Boulevard, many rebuilt on pilings after Ian with metal roofs.
- South end. Homes toward Lovers Key and Big Carlos Pass, where wind off the Gulf is strongest.
- Bay-side canals. Canal homes on the back bay, where downspouts need to drain away from docks and seawalls.
- San Carlos Island. Homes and manufactured-home communities across the bridge, with the same salt air and storm exposure.
We serve all of Fort Myers Beach, plus Sanibel and south Fort Myers.
AFTER IAN
Rebuilding the beach, one roof at a time
Hurricane Ian’s storm surge swept over Fort Myers Beach in September 2022 and destroyed or damaged a large share of the homes on the island. Many of the homes going up now are built higher, on pilings, with new metal roofs.
If you’re rebuilding or just finished, check three things:
- Are gutters part of the plan? Builders often leave them off. Without them, roof water pours onto stairs, decks and the parking level.
- Are they sized for the roof? Metal roofs shed water fast. Undersized gutters overflow in the first big storm.
- Are the downspouts secured for wind? Long drops on a raised home need to be strapped tight, or the next storm takes them off.
Book a free estimate and we’ll look at your current gutters and tell you straight whether they need replacing or just need work.

Fort Myers Beach gutter questions, answered
Does a gutter company need a license in Florida?
Yes. Installing gutters for pay in Florida requires a state contractor’s license from the DBPR. A city or county business tax receipt is not a contractor’s license. Ask for the number and look it up at myfloridalicense.com. Ours is CBC1270165.
Can you fix leaking or sagging gutters?
Often, yes. We reseal leaking corners and seams, re-secure loose sections and replace damaged downspouts. But leaks and sagging usually have a cause, like gutters pitched the wrong way, too few downspouts or an old system at the end of its life. We find the cause first and shoot you straight on whether a repair will hold or replacing the run is the better buy.
Can you install gutters on a raised home on pilings?
Yes. Most of the homes we work on at the beach are elevated. We install the gutters, strap the long downspout drops for wind, and route the water away from the pilings and parking level.
Do gutters hold up to salt air?
Seamless aluminum gutters with sealed joints and the right fasteners hold up well. We use screw-in hidden hangers and secure every downspout for Gulf wind.
Do I need to be on the island for the estimate or install?
No. Many Fort Myers Beach homes are second homes or rentals. We can do both while you’re away and send photos and updates by phone.
How often should gutters be cleaned in Fort Myers Beach?
At least once a year, ideally before rainy season in June. Homes under oaks or palms, and homes with super gutters, do best with two cleanings a year through our Rain Ready Club.
How much do new gutters cost in Fort Myers Beach?
Most full installations run about $2,000 to $4,000, depending on the size of the house and whether it needs 6″ or 7″ gutters. Every quote is free and in writing.
