For personalized hands on work from the business owner who has a vested interest in it's reputation. In most cased dramatically improving the functionality with better design and properly grading the gutters to fully drain with larger outlets than standard. I am not licensed to do roofing work, but there is some valuable unbiased advice to be found on my business web site about roofing and moss control.
I started as an auto mechanic at my Fathers shop, but it is hard to work for family, so I went out on my own working for General Contractors doing a bit of everything and finally specializing in residential gutter and downspout replacement, which has graduated into a custom copper sheet metal shop, where I design and build custom chimney caps and roof caps for turrets and gazebos, amongst other interesting projects my clients need.

Dave just finished the gutter work on our home. If you live in Portland there is only one person you should call to install/replace your gutters. Innovative excellent craftsmanship with a just a touch of Oh-My-Gosh. Plan ahead because he is usually booked out for months in advance. Well worth the wait.

A gutter is just a gutter, right? Nope! Compare DMR gutters with any house on your block, and you'll see. Our new DMR gutters are not just visually superior, they work like no other gutter on any house in your neighborhood. These gutters move and remove rain water like nothing I've ever seen! No more overflowing gutters that I was plagued with before I chose DMR. Yes, you will have to wait a little longer to get them installed. Dave is in-demand for good reason, so get your order in now if you're replacing your gutters this year. You won't be disappointed, in fact you will have peace of mind during our frequent downpours that your gutters are doing what they are supposed to do very, very efficiently.

We have used DMR gutters for our last 2 houses and will use him for our new home in a few months. David does excellent work for fair prices. He takes pride in doing a quality job, which is why we come back to him each time we move. We recommend DMR without reservation!

Dave is in demand but is worth any wait you might encounter! He installed - by himself - long runs of seamless copper gutters at our home and they look and work just great. They will likely be around and working long after my other water pipes quit and I'm gone! Dave is reliable, works hard and doesn't take time from your job to bid others. We are very pleased and recommend him without reservation.

Great service, prices, and the best quality material you can find. All questions were addressed in a quick, timely manner. I can and have recommended others to contact DMR for all of their gutter needs.

not only does David do exceptional work, he will only charge for what he does. his estimates are not inflated and if it turns out that his parts are less than the estimate, the cost to the homeowner is reduced. this is the kind of integrity that all business owners, no matter how large, should strive for. David's work is beautiful and he has solutions to many of the unseen problems that are inevitably uncovered. and check out his other site, copper-by-design.com for creations of scuppers, chimney caps and much more...

I love my gutters! How could one love gutters? Well, when they work well, are artfully crafted in copper, and make what might be an otherwise plain arbor really stunningly beautiful (yes) with not just gutters but copper trim on a translucent roof. And working with David was a pleasure from the beginning to the end because he's thoughtful, a fine craftsman, on time (important to all of us busy people), and takes care of any oversights or unexpected pitfalls, of which there are many in remodeling construction. He also interacts and works well with the contractors and workmen on site.

I would recommend DMR Gutters to anyone who wants quality gutters and workmanship. I went with DMR Gutters as soon as I found out that the less expensive vendors were going to cut off the decorative tails on my 1916 home. David not only assured me that he could keep the tails but he had the experience to remove the wood rot that the previous gutters created, install a support system for the new gutters, and install the new gutters in a way that would prevent future wood rot from re-occurring. Throughout the course of the project David found problems that are expected to be found in old homes (sagging roof lines, broken tails, etc.). David not only was able to resolve these issues, but came up with innovative solutions that bettered my home. One of the reasons we went with DMR Gutters was the detail that was provided on their web page. This type of workmanship was also demonstrated in the quality and detail that went into the installation of our gutters, chimney flashing and ridge caps. One option that we thoroughly enjoy is the rain-cup storm drain that David installed for us. We often receive compliments on our home since this work was done. Thanks to David for his wonderful work!
