Gutters for homes at the foot of Shell Ridge
Shell Ridge is the unincorporated neighborhood around Marshall Drive and Indian Valley Elementary on the east side of Walnut Creek, and it takes its name from the fault ridge behind it, where fossil shells turn up in the rock along the top. Shell Ridge Open Space covers 1,420 acres with 31 miles of trails, and residents reach it from the end of Marshall Drive, from Wiget Lane and Snyder Lane off Walnut Avenue, and from Old Borges Ranch on Castle Rock Road past Northgate High School. Across ZIP 94598, about 61 percent of homes were built in the 1960s and 1970s, and nine in ten Shell Ridge homes are owner-occupied.
Mohammad Awadalla and Syed Rizwan own The Brothers That Just Do Gutters San Ramon, and their family runs it from Livermore, with crews working throughout Northgate and Walnut Creek. Around Shell Ridge we form seamless aluminum, copper or bonderized steel gutters on-site, clean and flush systems by hand, repair leaking seams and sagging runs, replace fascia, add downspouts and install BroGuard micro-mesh. Every job is done under California contractor license 1115646.
Two seasons matter here. Winter storms bring most of the roughly 20 inches of rain a year a nearby NOAA gauge records, and oak leaves from the woodland and backyard trees fill troughs right before they arrive. Then the grass on the ridge dries out, and leaves left in a gutter become fuel at the roof edge during fire season. Our post on Diablo winds and why metal matters covers the details, and fire hardening is part of what we do. On a walkthrough we will show you where debris collects on your roof.

Why the Brothers
Why Shell Ridge Homeowners Call the Brothers
Homes that back onto Shell Ridge get gutters kept clear of dry debris and metal mesh that will not burn at the roof edge.
We check fascia and roof edges on 1950s to 1970s houses and fix soft wood before any new gutter goes up.
We route downspouts into buried lines or to stable outlets so runoff from the ridge side of the lot stays off foundations.

Posted on GoogleShell Ridge Gutter Questions, Answered
For most, yes. Leaves sitting in a gutter dry out in summer, and the grassland behind these yards is dry by early summer. BroGuard is stainless steel mesh, so it keeps that fuel out and will not burn. It is one part of hardening a home, alongside clearing the roof and yard, and we will be straight about what it covers.
Twice a year for most Shell Ridge homes: late fall after the oaks drop and late spring before fire season. Lots right against the open space or under big oaks may need a third visit. A clean roof edge in summer matters as much as a clear downspout in winter.
If the seams leak in several spots, the hangers are loose or the fascia is soft, replacement usually makes more sense on a house that old. If they are sound, a clean, reseal and new hangers can extend their life. We check both on site and give you a written estimate for each.
Water coming off the uphill side of the house needs a planned route around the foundation. We can extend downspouts, connect them to a buried drain line or send them to an existing yard drain. We walk the lot first, then put the routing and options in writing.
Yes. We work along Marshall Drive, Walnut Avenue, Castle Rock Road and the rest of Shell Ridge, plus the neighboring Northgate area. Call (925) 905-9555 to set up a free written estimate, and a Solutionist will look at the roof, gutters and drainage with you.
