Shallow roof pitches mean gutters fill with debris faster — micro-mesh guards are highly recommended.
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 Prairie Village 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.
On the 1940s-50s Prairie Village homes, we often combine wood rot repair with a full gutter replacement — one job, one warranty, one crew on-site.

Same crews. Same warranty. Same 5.0-star standard. Some of the Prairie Village neighborhoods where we’ve worked:
“Showed up on time, finished early, and left the property cleaner than when they arrived. Even our HOA noticed the upgraded look. Five stars.”
“They installed micro-mesh guards on my 1920s bungalow surrounded by oaks. Haven't cleaned a gutter in 18 months. The peace of mind alone is worth it.”
