I had a small section of eaves trough over my garage which had been badly designed by the original installer. Instead of catching the runoff from the bay window roof and taking it to the main trough, it had a drop spout located on the roof just in front of a main gutter!
In heavy downpours this caused flooding under the trough and leaking down the wall into the garage ceiling and even into the front sitting room wall. Lots of drywall damage.
This was a small job but one that was badly needed to be done. Maxima was the only company who not only returned my call but showed up when they said they would. When the two men showed up they had the trough replaced and properly channeled in about an hour, with an almost perfect match of the 12 year old colour.
In addition the roof end of the trough was angled to deflect runoff away from the wall and a small piece of flashing was added to the main gutter to further contain the water.
We have yet to experience a severe rainfall but it shows every indication of working as planned. The price was a little high, but that's to be expected on such a small job which included 2 men and equipment on site.
Thank you for a job well done.
