What Sherwood Park actually needs from a eavestrough job.
June 2026 made the case for properly sized eavestrough better than we ever could. Edmonton and the surrounding region recorded 244 millimetres of rain by June 27, the wettest June since records began in 1914, and the storms of June 20 and 21 alone produced about $150 million in insured damage. What we saw across Strathcona County afterwards was not blocked gutters. It was undersized ones: five-inch runs fed by two valleys, too few downspouts, and outlets placed where the builder found it convenient rather than where the water was going.
Sherwood Park's tree canopy is the second factor, and it is neighbourhood-specific. Under the mature spruce in Glen Allan, Broadmoor and Sherwood Heights, needles pack into a gutter and mat down into something closer to felt than debris, and that is a lot where guards genuinely earn their money. On an open lot in Bremner or Cambrian with young landscaping, guards are largely unnecessary for the first several years, and we would rather tell you that than add the line.
The winter side matters just as much. An eavestrough that is level or back-pitched holds water, and standing water in a Sherwood Park January becomes ice. Ice is heavy, and a full run of it will pull hangers out of fascia and take the fascia board with it. We hang on hidden hangers screwed into solid wood at proper spacing, and if the fascia behind is soft we tell you before we hang anything on it.
About Sherwood Park
Sherwood Park started life in 1953 as a private development called Campbelltown, laid out for workers at the refineries east of Edmonton. Canada Post rejected the name in 1956 and it became Sherwood Park. Seventy years of building since then have left the community with an unusually wide spread of housing eras, from post-and-beam bungalows on generous mature lots to 2024 two-storeys with sixteen-foot gables, and roofs from every one of those decades sitting side by side on the same street.

Our Standard
What every Sherwood Park eavestrough job includes.
Eavestrough is the least glamorous part of an exterior and the part with the most direct line to your foundation. We form seamless 5-inch and 6-inch aluminum on site, so a run has no joints along its length to work loose through a 60-degree annual temperature swing, hang it on proper hidden hangers into solid fascia, and pitch it so water actually moves rather than standing and freezing.
Seamless, formed on site
Each run is rolled to length at your house, so the only joints are at corners and outlets. Sectional gutter has a seam every ten feet, and every seam is a future leak here.
5-inch and 6-inch K-style
Five-inch handles most homes. Six-inch is the right call for large roof areas, steep pitches that dump water fast, and homes under mature trees.
Correct pitch and sizing
Slope calculated to the outlets so water moves. Standing water in an eavestrough is what freezes, and ice is what pulls a run off the fascia.
Hidden hangers into solid wood
Screwed hangers into sound fascia at proper spacing. If the fascia behind it is rotten we tell you, because hanging new eavestrough on soft wood is money wasted.
Downspouts and discharge
Sized and placed to move volume, with extensions that carry water well clear of the foundation and away from the neighbouring property.
Gutter guards, when they help
Worth it under mature trees and spruce. We will tell you honestly when your lot does not need them rather than adding a line to the quote.
Colour matched
A wide range of pre-finished aluminum colours matched to your fascia, trim and roof, so the eaves read as one detail.
Done with the roof where it makes sense
If the roof is being replaced, doing the eavestrough at the same time costs less than a separate mobilisation later.

Permits · Strathcona County
Do you need a permit in Sherwood Park?
Strathcona County does not require a building permit for maintenance work that leaves the use, height and gross floor area of the building unchanged, which covers straight like-for-like re-shingling and re-siding. A permit is required for roof redesign, height changes, replacing damaged framing, adding dormers, or mounting rooftop equipment. We confirm the position with County Planning and Development on every job and handle the application when one is needed.

FAQ
Sherwood Park eavestrough questions.
A complete seamless aluminum system on a Park bungalow, roughly 140 to 180 linear feet, typically runs $1,500 to $2,800. The larger two-storeys in Emerald Hills, Cambrian and Bremner, at 180 to 240 linear feet, generally run $2,200 to $4,200. Downspouts are $100 to $250 each installed and gutter guards $6 to $12 per linear foot.
Almost always sizing, pitch or outlet placement rather than blockage. A five-inch run collecting two valleys on a steep roof simply cannot move the volume a cloudburst delivers, and too few downspouts creates a bottleneck at the outlet. We measure the roof area draining to each outlet and size from that, which is why we sometimes recommend six-inch on a house that had five-inch for twenty years.
It depends entirely on your lot. Under the mature spruce in the older neighbourhoods, yes, they meaningfully reduce cleaning and prevent the matted needle blockages that cause winter ice. On a newer lot in Bremner or Hearthstone with young trees, they are not worth the money yet. We will look at your specific property and tell you which one you are.
Five-inch handles the runoff from most single-family roofs in this region. Go to six-inch if you have a large roof area draining to few outlets, a steep pitch that moves water fast, valleys dumping onto a short run, or mature trees dropping debris. The material cost difference is small next to the cost of overflow at the foundation.
Usually pitch, sizing or outlet placement rather than blockage. A run that is level or back-pitched holds water, a five-inch run fed by two valleys can simply be undersized, and too few downspouts creates a bottleneck. We measure the roof area draining to each outlet rather than matching whatever was there before.
Under spruce and mature deciduous trees, yes, and they meaningfully reduce cleaning. On an open new-build lot with young landscaping they are largely unnecessary for several years. We would rather tell you to skip them than sell you a line item you do not need yet.
