Gutters, Siding & Windows in Prairie City
The Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge sits right beside Prairie City, with about 5,500 acres of land restored to tallgrass prairie. Open country like that lets wind push rain sideways, into siding seams and over any gutter that has started to sag. We fix that with seamless gutters hung on hidden hangers, downspouts that empty well away from the foundation, and siding or trim repairs where water has already crept in behind the wall.
Prairie City is close to home for our crew in Mitchellville. Call or text (515) 901-3646 and Luke will set a time to come out, climb up, measure every run and walk you through your options in plain words. You may meet Jaxx on install day too. We work on houses, rentals, churches and metal buildings across Jasper County, and the estimate never costs you a thing.
A town with deep roots
James Elliott founded Prairie City in 1856, and the town first carried his name until it was changed because Iowa already had an Elliott. The railroad arrived in 1866. The Prairie City Historical Museum on South Main Street even keeps a Dowden potato digger that was made right here. Whatever the age of your house, we look at the whole roof edge: the fascia board behind the gutter, the drip edge, the pitch of each run and where every downspout lets out.
Sized for real Iowa storms
National Weather Service normals for Des Moines, the nearest big station to the west, come to about 36.5 inches of precipitation a year, plus about 36.5 inches of snow. NOAA storm data shows June is the busiest month for hail in Iowa. On a Prairie City house, that means gutters sized for downpours, not averages. We often talk about 6-inch gutters on large roof faces, more downspouts on long runs, and 4-inch round downspouts where they suit the look.
Siding, windows and doors
Gutters are where we started, but our crew also installs vinyl siding, LP SmartSide lap, soffit and fascia, Alside and Marvin windows, and entry, patio and storm doors. If a storm cracked a few siding panels, Luke will tell you whether a repair can match or whether a full wall makes more sense. If you want the house looking sharp for Prairie Days, the town's old settlers festival every June, a spring call gives you time to plan. See our siding services.

Do you come out to Prairie City for free gutter estimates?
Yes. Prairie City is a short drive from our shop in Mitchellville, so it is one of the easiest trips we make. Call or text (515) 901-3646, tell us what you are seeing, and Luke will set a time to come look, measure and go over options with you. The estimate is free.
Should my Prairie City house have 5-inch or 6-inch gutters?
It depends on how much roof drains into each run, how steep the pitch is and how many downspouts you can fit. A big, steep roof face that dumps onto one corner usually does better with 6-inch gutters and larger downspouts. Our 5-inch vs. 6-inch gutter guide walks through it, and Luke will measure before he suggests a size.
Can you match siding when only one wall of my Prairie City house is damaged?
Sometimes. If your profile and color are still made, we can often replace just the damaged panels. Older siding fades, so new panels may look brighter at first. Luke will bring samples, hold them up to your wall and tell you honestly whether a patch will blend or whether residing that side is the better call.
