Gutter guards in Red Lion, PA
Gutter help for Red Lion's hilltop borough and the rural and suburban homes around it in southeastern York County.
Red Lion is a borough about 8 miles southeast of York, with roughly 6,500 residents at the 2020 census. It was settled in 1852, incorporated in 1880 and named for the Red Lion Tavern. The town grew as a main stop on the Maryland and Pennsylvania Railroad and was once known for its cigar factories and handcrafted furniture. It sits high, at about 921 feet, on a compact 1.3 square miles.
What makes Red Lion gutters different?
Elevation and exposure. Homes on higher ground catch more wind, which drives rain sideways across gutters and blows leaves onto roofs from farther away. Many houses in the borough date from the railroad and factory era, with deep porches and roof sections that dump water into one corner. Outside the borough, homes on large lots in the townships are often surrounded by tree lines and fields.
Typical gutter work in Red Lion
- Guards on porch roofs and valleys that collect debris
- Re-hanging gutters loosened by wind and ice
- Replacing worn sectional gutters on older homes
- Downspouts routed away from stone or block foundations
- Fascia repair where gutters have overflowed for years
Porch roofs need attention too
Lower porch roofs take water from the main roof above them as well as their own. When the upper gutter overflows, it lands on the porch and its gutter overflows next. Ask the installer to look at both levels together, not just the main roofline.

Why does my porch gutter overflow?
It is often catching runoff from the main roof as well as its own. A larger porch gutter, an extra downspout or fixing the upper gutter usually solves it.
