Original wood gutters and box gutters on historic homes need restoration or modern replacement.
Rebuild the structure before re-hanging gutters. Done right the first time.
Wood rot under failing gutters is one of the most under-treated problems on Ottawa homes. We don't paint over it, mount new gutters on it, or pretend it isn't there. We cut it out, replace it with primed, paint-grade material, and rebuild the surface for a proper gutter install.
Wood rot in Ottawa typically starts where drip edge is missing or where downspouts have overflowed. Premier addresses both before any rebuild.

A historic Marais des Cygnes river town and home of Ottawa University, the city has a rich mix of preserved Victorian-era homes and mid-20th-century housing stock that demands gutter expertise.
Folk Victorians, Queen Anne cottages, prairie boxes from the early 1900s, and 1950s ranches close to the university.
Proximity to the Marais des Cygnes River means higher year-round humidity and more frequent flash-flood-grade rain events — properly sized downspouts are non-negotiable.

Same crews. Same warranty. Same 5.0-star standard. Some of the Ottawa neighborhoods where we’ve worked:
“We have a complex two-story with multiple roof pitches. Premier was the only company that didn't try to talk us into a one-size-fits-all install. The custom work shows.”
“Fast quote, fair price, and they actually showed up when they said they would. Crew repaired some hidden wood rot before installing — most companies would have just slapped gutters over it.”
