Builder-grade .025 aluminum gutters
Builder-grade .025 aluminum gutters from 1990s subdivisions are now failing en masse.
Properly sized, properly routed — water away from your foundation.
Most foundation water problems in Olathe aren't caused by failing gutters — they're caused by undersized or poorly-routed downspouts. We add capacity, reroute discharge, and install extensions or underground drainage that actually moves water away from your foundation.
Premier upgrades undersized 2×3 downspouts to oversized 3×4 across Olathe — 40% more capacity, especially valuable during the metro's hail-heavy spring storms.

The county seat of Johnson County and one of the fastest-growing cities in the metro, Olathe blends established 1990s neighborhoods with brand-new construction across its 60+ square miles.
Mostly traditional two-story builds from 1985 onward; pockets of 1970s ranches in central Olathe and modern transitional homes in newer Cedar Creek and Boulder Hills developments.
Olathe sits on a flat, exposed plateau, so straight-line winds and hail hit harder than in protected metro pockets — gutter brackets and hangers need to be commercial-grade.
Builder-grade .025 aluminum gutters from 1990s subdivisions are now failing en masse.
Large rooflines (2,400+ sq ft homes are common) overwhelm undersized 5" gutters during heavy rain.
Newer south Olathe construction often has poor downspout placement near foundations.
Honest, line-itemed quotes — no high-pressure sales, no upsells, no surprise add-ons.
Adding or replacing a downspout typically runs $80–$180 per drop in Olathe. Underground PVC drainage with pop-up emitter is $400–$900 per run installed.
Walk every downspout discharge point at your Olathe home — find where water is pooling or moving toward the foundation.
Confirm downspout count and size matches your gutter system's actual capacity.
Add downspouts, swap to oversized 3×4, or reroute existing ones.
Above-grade extensions, underground PVC with emitter, or splash blocks — whichever fits the property.
Pour or hose test to confirm water moves at least 6 ft from the foundation.
Same crews. Same warranty. Same 5.0-star standard. Some of the Olathe neighborhoods where we’ve worked:
“I've had three different gutter companies out over the years. Premier is the only one who actually fixed the underlying problem instead of just patching it. New customer for life.”
“I had three quotes — Premier wasn't the cheapest, but the warranty, materials, and professionalism made it an easy call. Two years later, zero issues, even after the worst storms.”
