KEEP WATER AWAY FROM YOUR HOME WITH PROPER EAVESTROUGHS
When eavestroughs fail, water pools around your foundation, floods your basement, and damages your siding. We fabricate seamless eavestroughs on-site for a perfect fit and long-term performance.
Seamless Systems Fabricated On-Site
We cut each piece to the exact length of your roofline right at your property. No joints, no seams, no weak points where leaks start.
We install 5-inch and 6-inch systems in aluminum, copper, and steel. K-style and half-round profiles available. 20+ colours to match your home.
Eavestroughs need the right pitch to drain properly. We calculate the slope for your specific roofline and install it correctly the first time.
"We show up, we do the work right, and we do not leave until you are happy. That is how Jacob Siding has worked since day one."
Professional Eavestrough Services in Ottawa, ON
Eavestroughs do one job: move water away from your home. When they fail, water pools around your foundation, floods your basement, erodes your landscaping, and stains your siding. In Ottawa, where we get heavy spring rainfall and massive snowmelt, a good eavestrough system is not optional.
No Joints. No Seams. No Leaks.
Jacob Siding fabricates seamless eavestroughs on-site at your property. Every piece is cut to the exact length of your roofline for a perfect fit. No joints or seams where leaks start, which is the most common failure point in old sectional systems.
- We Install All Types and Sizes
- 5-Inch and 6-Inch Systems
- Aluminum, Copper, and Steel
- K-Style and Half-Round Profiles
We help you pick the right size based on your roof pitch and the volume of water your property handles.
Built for Ottawa’s Precipitation Levels
Ottawa gets over 900 mm of precipitation per year. Add the spring snowmelt from 200+ cm of annual snowfall and your eavestroughs handle a massive volume of water every season. If they are undersized, clogged, or improperly pitched, that water ends up exactly where it should not be.

Common Eavestrough Problems We Fix in Ottawa, ON
Overflowing Eavestroughs
This is the number one gutter problem we get called about. It is usually caused by improper pitch, undersized gutters, or debris buildup from Ottawa's heavy tree cover.
Sagging Eavestroughs
Hangers failing or pulling away from the fascia board.
Leaking Seams on Old Sectional Systems
Factory joints in older systems break down over time and start leaking.
Eavestroughs Pulling Away from the Home
Caused by fascia rot or loose spikes that can no longer hold the weight.
Clogged Eavestroughs
Debris buildup causes overflow and water to pool near your foundation.
Disconnected or Misdirected Downspouts
Downspouts pointing the wrong direction send water right back toward your foundation.
Rust or Corrosion on Aging Steel Systems
Old steel systems corrode over time and need to be replaced before they fail completely.
