Dan's Gutter Service LLC.

The state's workers'-comp classes for the business are sheet metal construction and construction estimating, which fits a shop that measures the job, quotes it and then forms and installs the metal itself. The state puts the crew at one to three people, and the owner is on the tools. Daniel Bothmer is listed as a principal since 2017, the same year the business was established. The work is residential: replacing or repairing runs on houses, adding downspouts and fixing the sheet metal that goes with them. A crew that size is a good match for a single house that needs new gutters, a section re-hung or downspouts rerouted, where the person quoting the job is the one who shows up to do it. It isn't built for large commercial buildings or public projects, and a homeowner planning a full re-roof will still need a roofer for the shingles, with the gutter work coordinated around it. Spokane's housing stock runs from early twentieth-century homes on the South Hill and in the older neighborhoods to newer subdivisions in Spokane Valley, Liberty Lake and Mead. On older houses, fascia boards are often worn or uneven, so ask whether the gutters will hang on the existing wood or whether some of it needs repair first. Newer homes usually have straighter rooflines but long runs and valleys that dump a lot of water at one corner. Either way, ask about the metal gauge, how the hangers are spaced for snow load, and where each downspout discharges relative to the foundation.
