James & Bridget’s River Falls, WI LeafGuard® Gutter Project

It was the fall of 2009 when James talked Bridget into looking at real estate in River Falls, WI. The home they agreed upon was a foreclosure and needed a substantial amount of work. The couple and their friends and family spent that fall and winter making updates to the home’s interior.

Addressing the Need for New Gutters that will Protect Their Time and Home

As time passed, they began to direct their attention outdoors. One project on the couple’s to-do list was upgrading the home’s gutters. There were several problems with the pre-existing ones. On one side of the house they were sagging and pieces had fallen off. A few gutters lacked long enough downspouts to disperse away from the home’s foundation.  Some sections of the house lacked gutters completely. This led to the mulch in their new landscaping being washed away. Because the gutters were not seamless, water leaked through in spots. One spot that really created a problem was over their garage where water leaked so badly that an ice mound formed every winter, making it difficult to get vehicles in and out. The open style gutters also posed a problem on their heavily treed lot, especially when it came to the never-ending helicopters that several of their trees shed. Bridget and James both worked long work weeks and they preferred to spend their weekends at the family cabin or in their swimming pool, rather than cleaning gutters.

The straw that broke the camel’s back was when they woke up one summer morning to find a few inches of water in their basement from a substantial rainfall overnight.  The basement carpeting was soaked and the space that they’d worked so hard to finish was now a wet, musty mess. “As we worked to put our basement back together, we looked at each other and said we are never doing this again,” Bridget said.

Bridget and James say the decision to go with LeafGuard® Brand Gutters was a no-brainer. “We didn’t even call anyone else to give us a bid. I knew we wanted the best and their iron-clad warranties won us over. My dad is an architect and he complimented how well the gutters blended into our house once they were installed,” says James.

With a family member recently in a serious accident that resulted from a fall from cleaning gutters, the couple appreciates the fact that if their gutters ever clog, a trained gutter contractor with safety equipment will handle the issue.

Still unsure if they’ve found their forever home, they relish in the fact the warranties that come with their LeafGuard® Brand Gutters transfer to the next homeowners. “It’s a great selling point,” says Bridget.

Reviews From River Falls, WI Homeowners

"We knew we needed to replace our seven 4-foot-by-10-foot wall of windows; we just didn't know where to go. We figured we could find our best choices at the Home & Garden Show. They were there, and many were excited to talk to us, discuss our project and get contact information. The next morning we received a call from Lindus Construction, a name I was familiar with after years of listening to their show on WCCO Saturday mornings. Surprisingly, of all the companies, they were the only ones to call.  We are delighted by the work and satisfied beyond our expectation."

"Lindus Construction installed the LeafGuard® Gutter System on our home last week. We were very impressed with the professionalism and integrity of Lindus throughout the process. The instalers work was meticulous. They kept us informed daily about what they would be doing. The final job is amazing!! They also did a fantastic job of cleanup. We would highly recommend Lindus. They are so easy to work with and take great pride in their work."

"We are thrilled with the look and operation of the new doors and windows. Such quality! Also, the installers were rockstars! They got a real workout lugging heavy items on our hilly terrain. Not ideal working conditions, but at least they had a lovely view to enjoy! We will definitely hire Lindus again."
