Built-In Gutters, Rebuilt Properly
Many older Lower Mainland homes carry built-in (box) gutters concealed within the roofline itself, rather than a trough hung below the fascia. We rebuild these systems, matched to your home's existing structure and roofline.
The goal on every rebuild is the same: a watertight channel, correctly sloped and sized for your roof's actual catchment area, so water moves away from your foundation instead of pooling at it.
Concealed Gutters, Rebuilt Properly
Liner repair through full structural rebuild for box gutters concealed behind the fascia.
- Liner & membrane installation for channels where waterproofing needs to be replaced but the structure is sound.
- Structural rebuild where rot has set into the fascia, soffit or supporting framing underneath.
- Overflow protection added so a future blockage causes a visible overflow, not a ceiling leak.
- Full diagnosis first with photos, before we recommend anything. This isn't a one-size-fits-all job.
How A Built-In Gutter Rebuild Works
Assessment & Measurement
We inspect the concealed channel, measure your roofline and catchment area, and photograph what we find.
Diagnosis & Recommendation
We confirm whether a liner replacement or a full structural rebuild is the right fix for your home.
Liner Or Rebuild
We install a new liner and membrane, or rebuild the channel structure where rot has set in.
Slope & Overflow Check
The rebuilt channel is slope-tested and checked for overflow protection to confirm proper drainage before we leave.

Questions About Built-In Gutters
If your gutter appears to be part of the roofline itself rather than a separate trough hung below the fascia, it's likely a built-in (box) gutter, which is common on older homes where the channel was built into the roofline.
In some cases yes, depending on the roofline and fascia condition. We can walk you through whether that is a better long-term option than rebuilding the existing built-in system.
Water overflowing at the roofline during rain, staining on the walls below the roofline, damp patches on upper walls or ceilings near the roof edge, and rot in the fascia or supporting framing all point to a built-in gutter problem. Because the channel is concealed, these signs often appear before the gutter itself is visible.
