Melville covers some of the highest ground on Long Island, rising toward Jayne's Hill in West Hills County Park, and that terrain shapes how water behaves around a house. Homes set into hillsides along roads such as Sweet Hollow Road see runoff from uphill lots on top of their own roof water, and wooded parcels drop plenty of leaves into gutters each fall. The hamlet's housing ranges from older homes on large wooded lots to newer Colonials and condominium communities with long, complex rooflines. Along the Route 110 corridor, office buildings and commercial properties need gutters and leaders sized for big roof areas. In every case, good gutters start with correct sizing and a plan for where the water goes.
Most people know Melville for the Route 110 corridor, where office parks built from the 1960s onward house major corporate headquarters, with quick access to the Long Island Expressway and Northern State Parkway. Just north of the hamlet, West Hills County Park holds Jayne's Hill, the highest point on Long Island, reached by the Walt Whitman trail. The historic Sweet Hollow Presbyterian Church dates to 1829. Melville is an unincorporated hamlet in the Town of Huntington, with homes set into hillsides along roads such as Sweet Hollow Road. From those hillside homes to the commercial buildings along Route 110, we install and service gutters throughout Melville.
Melville's mix of homes and businesses suits our full range. For commercial buildings, 6-inch K-style gutters handle large roof areas, and our drop-off service supports contractors and architects working on local projects. For wooded residential lots, Alcoa Leaf Relief cuts down on clogs. Hillside homes benefit from hand-dug underground drainage that carries water away without heavy machinery damaging landscaping. We also install low-voltage LED landscape lighting for well-kept Melville properties.

Gutters handle your roof water, but on a hillside lot the leaders need somewhere to go. We install underground drainage, leach basins and extension tails to move that water away from the foundation. All digging is done by hand, which protects lawns, pavers and irrigation. We look at the grade around your home during a free estimate.
Yes. We serve commercial properties as well as homes, and our 6-inch K-style gutters are designed for higher-capacity runoff from larger roofs. We fabricate seamless gutters on site, and we also offer a drop-off service for contractors and architects who need gutters fabricated for their projects.
Standard 5-inch K-style gutters work for many homes, but large or steep roofs often do better with more capacity. We recommend 6-inch half-round for most homes and offer 6-inch K-style as well. Sizing depends on roof area, pitch and leader placement, which we measure on site before recommending a system.
Yes. Our gutter cleaning and maintenance programs include a look at the roof while we are up there, so small issues can be spotted early. On Melville's wooded lots, cleaning ahead of winter helps prevent overflow and ice problems. We also offer soft-wash roof cleaning, with no power washing, to remove stains and growth.
