Hail and gutters

What Colorado Springs hailstorms have done to roofs and gutters, how to spot damage, and how to choose gutter material and thickness.

Hail insurance claims

A homeowner's overview of filing a hail claim in Colorado: documenting damage, wind/hail deductibles, and why contractors cannot waive your deductible.

Gutter cost

Published price ranges for gutter installation in Colorado Springs, what moves the price, and how to compare quotes fairly.

Downspouts and drainage

Why gutter discharge matters on Colorado's expansive clay soils, how far downspouts should carry water, and what to ask an installer.

If you are staring at a dented gutter after a hailstorm, a downspout that dumps water beside your foundation, or a gutter packed with pine needles, this guide is meant to help you decide what to do next. Colorado Springs sits at roughly 6,000 feet, gets hard hail seasons, and builds on clay soils that react to water, so gutter decisions here carry more weight than they might in a milder place.

Why Colorado Springs is different

Hail, freeze and thaw, pine debris, and clay soil all push on a gutter system from different directions. The area is also served by the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department rather than a single city office, and Colorado has its own rules about contractors and insurance claims. Each guide on this site focuses on one of those pieces.

Frequently asked questions

Does hail damage to gutters get covered by insurance?

It can, but it depends entirely on your policy. Insurance guides list gutters among the items to photograph after a hailstorm. Our insurance guide explains the basics and what to ask your insurer.

Do I need a permit to install gutters in Colorado Springs?

We could not confirm either way, so please do not assume. The Pikes Peak Regional Building Department is the place to ask, and our permit guide gives you the exact question to put to them.

How far should downspouts carry water from my house?

Colorado State University Extension says to grade soil so water drains away from the house and not to remove downspout extensions. Sources we reviewed put the minimum discharge distance at 5 feet, and one local foundation contractor recommended at least 10 feet.
