Gutters for Lakewood’s postwar tract homes

Lakewood was planned on open farmland by developers Louis Boyar, Mark Taper and Ben Weingart, with construction starting in late 1949. On the first day of sales, March 24, 1950, an estimated 30,000 people lined up to tour seven model houses. In less than three years the fields became 17,500 homes, finished at a pace of 40 to 60 houses a day. The community incorporated on April 16, 1954, and became the first city in the country to contract for all of its municipal services, an approach still called the Lakewood Plan. Its main boulevards, with landscaped medians and frontage roads along the residential stretches, came out of that same plan.

The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Anaheim is owned by Sara Baayoun, and our crew comes up from Fountain Valley to work Lakewood’s blocks. Here we clean and flush gutters by hand, reseal leaking seams and end caps, form seamless gutters on site, replace weathered fascia board and install BroGuard stainless micro-mesh. On houses this age we check the fascia behind every run, not just the gutter in front of it, and every estimate is free and in writing.

The NOAA 1991 to 2020 normal at Long Beach Daugherty Field, just across Lakewood’s western city line, is 12.02 inches of rain a year, and 8.06 inches of it falls December through February. February alone averages 3.02 inches. Census estimates date 54.5 percent of Lakewood’s housing to the 1950s and 68 percent to before 1960, so many roofs carry gutters and fascia that have been through decades of winters. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center has an El Niño Advisory in effect and expects a strong El Niño through the winter, so a fall cleaning and a flush of every downspout is the simple first step.
