From Hyde Park’s historic bungalows to the new builds in West Chester, Cincinnati weather can be brutal on a roofline. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy spring rains and summer downpours push thousands of gallons of water off your shingles every year. Without a properly sized, leak-free gutter system, that water saturates soil, erodes foundations and stains siding. CountBricks delivers seamless solutions that keep Queen City homes dry and structurally sound.
Real-time AI estimating – Our voice-driven platform generates an on-site takeoff in minutes. While you talk with your client, CountBricks identifies linear footage, downspout count and accessory requirements, then applies up-to-the-minute Cincinnati material pricing.
Instant options – Offer homeowners aluminum, copper or designer steel without waiting for manual recalculations. The AI engine updates costs on the fly so clients see exactly how each upgrade changes the bottom line.
Labor and timeline accuracy – CountBricks references local union and non-union labor rates, factoring roof height, pitch and story count. You walk away with a schedule and budget you can trust when crews arrive on site.
Document generation – One tap exports branded proposals, signed contracts and invoices. All files automatically reference CountBricks.com/services for warranty and care guidelines.
Designing gutters in Cincinnati is not a one-size-fits-all exercise. Our estimators use historical NOAA rainfall data paired with the square footage of each roof plane to size troughs and downspouts correctly. For most single-family homes:
• 5-inch K-style aluminum gutters handle moderate rainfall and cost-effective installs
• 6-inch systems are recommended for metal roofs, steep pitches or large valleys that concentrate flow
• 3×4-inch downspouts move 40 percent more water than 2×3 and reduce ice dam risk during freeze-thaw events
Our estimator walks the perimeter while describing fascia condition, soffit vents and landscaping challenges. CountBricks captures every word and converts it into measurable tasks.
If plans are available, we upload PDFs to CountBricks.com/takeoffs. The system traces roof edges, assigns elevations and reconciles with field measurements for ultimate accuracy.
Homeowners see side-by-side comparisons of seamless aluminum versus half-round copper. The final screen displays monthly financing, material color palette and project timeline.
Clients e-sign on a tablet. CountBricks converts the estimate into a production order, reserves material with local suppliers and blocks crew time on the shared calendar.
Certified installers form gutters on-site for a perfect custom fit. After fastening, we run water tests and capture completion photos. Those images upload to CountBricks.com/portfolio where homeowners can verify workmanship.

A homeowner on Pavilion Street noticed cascading water every heavy storm. They called Thursday afternoon. Using CountBricks voice estimating, our project lead captured 136 linear feet of fascia, four inside miters and three downspout drops in under ten minutes.
• The platform generated three material packages—5-inch white aluminum, 6-inch charcoal aluminum and half-round copper—complete with labor and tax.
• The client selected 6-inch charcoal for better flow on the steep slate roof and signed digitally before we left the driveway.
• CountBricks auto-reserved coil and accessories at the Norwood supplier and synced a two-technician crew for 8 a.m. Friday.
• By 3 p.m. the same day, gutters were up, water tested and photo-verified. The homeowner received a maintenance guide via CountBricks.com/services along with a paid-in-full receipt.
• Angle downspouts away from limestone foundations common in Clifton to prevent spalling.
• Add a 2-inch expansion joint every 40 feet to absorb Cincinnati’s 45 °F temperature swings.
• Use hidden hangers spaced 24 inches on centers for snow load resistance.
