Jacksonville's Homes, and the Gutter Problems That Come with Them
Jacksonville is Onslow County's seat and its largest city, with 72,723 residents in the 2020 census, and it's home to Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River. The housing mix is wide, and so are the gutter problems.
Established in-town neighborhoods. Areas like Northwoods, Brynn Marr and Sherwood Forest are some of the city's established neighborhoods. Northwoods in particular has many one-story brick ranch homes, some dating to the late 1950s, often under big, mature trees. The usual story: gutters that have been patched for years, fascia boards softened by overflow, and downspouts clogged with needles and leaves. These homes are good candidates for new seamless gutters and, under heavy tree cover, gutter guards.
Newer subdivisions. Communities like Stateside (off Gum Branch Road), Onslow Bay and Pine Grove have lots of recent construction. Builder gutters are often basic, and downspouts frequently end in a short elbow next to the foundation while the backfilled soil is still settling. Downspout extensions or buried drain lines are a common first fix, and guards are easy to add while the gutters are new.
Golf course and larger developments. Around Southwest Plantation, built around the 18-hole Bear Trail Golf Course, and in larger established developments like Carolina Forest and Hunters Creek, gutter needs vary house by house. Two-story homes need the right ladders or lifts, and long rooflines need enough downspouts to keep up in a downpour.
Rain, Storms and the New River
Jacksonville averages roughly 56 to 59 inches of rain a year, depending on the station (NOAA 1991–2020 normals for MCAS New River and the Jacksonville station). The National Weather Service listed Jacksonville among the hardest-hit areas during Hurricane Florence in 2018. Hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30, and even ordinary summer thunderstorms can drop more water in an hour than a small, clogged gutter can move.
If your gutters spill over during storms, it's usually one of three things: they're clogged, they're undersized for the roof, or there aren't enough downspouts. A gutter cleaning rules out the first. A pro can tell you if it's the other two.
Rentals, PCS Moves and Military Homeowners
Jacksonville has a big rental market. The 2020 census counted 24,004 housing units in the city, with a rental vacancy rate of 12.0%, compared with 3.0% for owner-occupied homes. Many owners are active-duty or retired military, and plenty rent out their home when orders take them elsewhere.
If you're a landlord, a property manager, or a homeowner getting ready for a PCS move, sale or new tenants:
- Put the tenant or manager's contact in the message box so the pro can coordinate access
- Mention any deadline, like a closing date, inspection or move-in, so the contractor can tell you if it's realistic
- Ask for photos of the finished work if you won't be there
