Your gutters might not be the most visible part of your home, but they play a vital role in protecting it. From directing rainwater away from your foundation to preventing water damage and soil erosion, a well-functioning gutter system is essential.

At Universal Roofing & Construction, we provide professional gutter installation and replacement services for homeowners in Pleasant Hill, IA, ensuring your home is protected year-round.

Why Gutters Are Essential?


Iowa weather can bring everything from heavy rain to snowmelt and hail—putting your home at constant risk of water intrusion. Without a reliable gutter system, rainwater can pool around your foundation, seep into your basement, damage your landscaping, or even rot your siding and fascia.

Gutters ensure proper drainage, helping to preserve the structural integrity of your home. If your gutters are old, leaking, sagging, or frequently clogged, it’s time to consider replacement. Our team at Universal Roofing & Construction offers high-quality solutions tailored to your home’s unique needs.

Cole and his team are great. They came out on short notice and got my roof repaired before we moved in. Great communication and quality work.Chris ScarpaJune 3, 2025
One of the smoothest transactions I have ever had with a roofing company. I worked with Russell to assess the damage on my roof. Russell, was able to walk me through the damage, the claims process and what to expect when filing a claim. Russell kept me up to date on the process, and when I can expect the team to arrive after the claim was approved. What is even more impressive is that Russell and the team were able to provide detail evidence the damage, even after the claim had been denied twice. He did not see the denial as a problem, rather a bump. I truly appreciate his diligence with my specific case. Russell is not a storm chaser, in my case he was a problem solver. Absolutely recommend him for any future work.Jean RodriguezJune 2, 2025
After hurricane Helena came thru Augusta, GA last September, my property suffered some damages including my roof. Two of my neighbors recommended Universal Roofing, and especially Cole whom I contacted immediately. I was very impressed with this kind young gentleman who assessed the damage to the roof and from then did all the work with the insurance. Him and Selma kept me informed regularly (I exchanged many emails with Selma who guided me and reassured me as the insurance was very slow to respond). Finally came the day when Cole arrived with his team to replace my roof. They were prompt early morning, put tarp all around my house to cover plants and worked until the work was completed.Then they searched for and removed any little debris all around the house which looked like nothing had happened except I had a new beautiful roof. I want to thank them and particularly Cole for his kindness, efficiency, ethics, and professionalism. I give him a A+. NicoleNicole PerrinMay 6, 2025
There was a storm coming, and this team replaced our roof in a under a day -- and did incredible work. Pics like this one sent to us throughout, left a clean site, etc. The owner Pete has got to be one of the hardest working men in Georgia. Showed up when he said he would. And if delayed, texted or called. No games. Highly, highly recommend these guys and PRAY they don't get so busy that they get too busy. This is the way it should be done.osunsasfulApril 18, 2025
We had Cole Nolan come and do a roof inspection because of the recent storms. After finding damage he advise us to file a claim. He was able to walk us through the process step by step. We highly recommend Cole Nolan with Universal Roofingpatel BhavinApril 17, 2025
We have been having lots of issues with our builders grade roof after the last few big storms we have been getting here in the south. Cole came to our rescue and was very informative and helpful with process of replacing our roof. His team started early in the morning and were done and cleaned up by the time we got home from work. We highly recommend working with Cole. He will take great care of you and your roof!Stevi SchulteApril 8, 2025
Universal Roofing responded right away to my message, and then they inspected, quoted, and corrected the problems--all within a week! Great people to work with. Alex Jenkins is my favorite. He's very professional.Gail EverettApril 1, 2025
We recently used the Greenville SC location to replace cracked siding and to paint the entire exterior of our home. The team is reliable and performs professional work quickly and efficiently. We were very pleased with the results and the reasonable price. We highly recommend Universal Roofing & Construction and will use their services again.Melani MMarch 30, 2025
Had a tree fall on our house. Kyle came out and quickly assessed the damage. Gave a quick quote and it was a very fair price. Guys came out and repaired the hole in the roof, replaced the damaged gutter, downspout and leaf guard. Looks like nothing ever happened! Would highly recommend Kyle and the URC team to anyone needing fast and fair repairs!Josh FitzpatrickMarch 27, 2025
Russell and his team were great! His excellent communication helped us navigate each step of the way, especially helping us understand what to expect regarding the insurance details. I recommend him and the team with the utmost confidence.John NortonMarch 21, 2025
Thank you Universal Roofing & David Locke! This group knows how to take care of their customers. They stand behind what they say. They made what could be a stressful project easy from start to finish. We were informed with text and photos throughout the entire process. Great finished product, great experience, great price! Highly recommend! Thank you David & Universal Roofing!Shane BlantonMarch 16, 2025
I live in The Augusta area. After Hurricane Helene came through, I was referred to Universal Roofing & Construction by my brother. I reached out to Cole Nolan, he guided me through the claim process and got my new roof installed in a timely and professional manner. I highly recommend Universal and Cole is outstanding.Victor AthaMarch 12, 2025
My parents recently had their roof replaced and we interviewed several roofing contractors. We decided on Universal Roof & Contracting and couldn't be happier. Andy Sims was our first contact and really helped to start the project on the right foot. Our project manager was Spence who answered all our questions and accommodated every request I had. Spence took the extra step of double-checking the attic for any potential issues. Edgar's crew did a fantastic job with the installation and Raven coordinated the administrative logistics beautifully. Every member of the Universal team has been professional, responsive and thorough. Thank you to everyone for their hard work! -- The Nguyen FamilyTraMi NguyenMarch 12, 2025
Most roofers will ghost you if you aren't getting a full replacement, Universal was willing to put in the small amount of time to do a fix for me. This may be the 5th or 6th person I've had look at the roof, and the first one to just do the job. Big thanks to Russell for the help.Steve StricklandFebruary 22, 2025
I recently had a roof leak in my 2 year old house. I reached out to Universal Roofing. Russell Allen came by to inspect the roof, and found the area where it was leaking but also noticed additional areas that could be a problem in the future. He took pictures, which I then showed the builder. The builder sent their roofers to fix those issues. I really appreciated how helpful and professional Russell Allen was, I would highly recommend Universal Roofing!Salman AhmedFebruary 17, 2025
I had Universal Roofing inspect my roof after a hail storm and there inspector Russell found hail damage.He wrote up the report and my insurance completely took care of me getting a new roof.Smooth process.I have recommended the company to my friends.Greg DavisFebruary 12, 2025
Universal Roofing and Construction as well as Kyle Knawly provided the best experience we could ever imagine when it comes to our project. Kyle’s professionalism and his project management was impeccable. He walked us through the entire process and insured that our project was priority. Our roof was damaged from a storm and now we have an updated, up to code, and well constructed new roof. Thanks Kyle for all your help.James Barrett LingenfelterFebruary 11, 2025
My experience with Universal Roof & Construction was great. My insurance company only approved me for a few shingle repairs. Kyle worked with my insurance company and pushed for the entire roof to get repaired. The job was quick and great. While installing the new roof the vibration from the banging broke the mount supporting the chain holding my chandelier napped. Kyle understood the situation and fixed the problem. I would refer Universal roofing to anyone who needs roof repair or replacedEric HarrisFebruary 7, 2025
Kyle Khawly showed up the same morning I called about water leaks in my roof after a big storm. He was professional and helpful in every step between tarping the problem areas, helping us file an insurance claim, working through a difficult insurance process, and finally getting a full roof replacement. Kyle was quick to respond to all our questions and went to bat for us with the insurance company. The crew that replaced our roof did a great job. We would be happy to recommend them to anyone!Timothy VernonFebruary 2, 2025
Kyle Khawly was fantastic from day one of coming out to patch a hole in our roof the day before a snowstorm. He helped us through all the paperwork of getting a new roof, and worked above and beyond with every form of communication. We are so appreciative of all of his work and effort, highly recommend this company!Sarah DietrichJanuary 31, 2025
I can't overstate my great experience with Russell at Universal Roofing. Great customer service and quality work at a reasonable price. My highest recommendation.Jodi BolglaJanuary 20, 2025
I found this company after looking for recommendations in my local Facebook group after Hurricane Helene left my roof leaking in multiple places. We worked with Cole, who helped us navigate tricky insurance and got a whole roof replacement covered. He even came out to meet the insurance claims agent and got them to cover a bunch of the interior damage as well like carpets and dry wall. The day of the roof replacement everything went smoothly: the crew turned up on time, sent us awesome drone shots of their progress, finished the job before sunset, and left the yard spotless. We recommended them to our neighbor as well.McKenzie DayJanuary 17, 2025
I had a wonderful experience working with Kyle Khawly from Universal Roofing and Construction! Kyle was helpful in every way from working with my insurance company to explaining the process and what to expect. I would highly recommend Kyle and his team for your roofing needs.Terry NaleJanuary 16, 2025
Universal Roofing did an amazing job. Not only the great roof they finished in only one day, but especially Russell Allen who walked me through the insurance process and got the claim approved.Peer JamborDecember 23, 2024
Pete (Emrick with Universal) is the best roofer/roofing company you're going to find. For starters, the company does great work. But, more importantly, they back up their work, and cover you the way a quality company should. They've earned my business, permanently. I can't recommend them any higher! Thanks!Tim SteflDecember 22, 2024
