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.

Randie Giles was recommended to us by a friend. He was very customer service oriented, professional, and knowledgeable. He worked tirelessly with our insurance company to get our roof replaced. The process was very smooth and we are very satisfied with the new roof and gutters! I would highly recommend working with Randie at Universal Roofing & Construction, Inc.Michele StroudJune 4, 2026
I had an excellent experience working with Universal Roofing and Construction Inc. Randie Giles, my claim specialist, was professional and very knowledgeable. The entire process was very smooth and he took the time to explain everything clearly, answering all of my questions and making me feel confident every step of the way. Randie was also present when the insurance representative came to inspect my roof.
The quality of their work was outstanding. The crew arrived at 6:00 am, took photos and covered all the plants and bushes along the house. They worked efficiently, and kept the job site clean and organized throughout the project. The job was completed according to schedule.
In the end Universal Roofing and Construction Inc. truly delivered exceeding my expectations..Maurizio CerriJune 4, 2026
Daniel, set us up really well! Super easy process and we love the resultsSpencer HaynesMay 30, 2026
Replaced our roof three years ago. Leak developed due to clogged downspout. They repaired the leak, even though not their fault, and didn't charge anything. This is outstanding service beyond any expectations.Anne SmithMay 30, 2026
David Locke deserves more than fives stars, we had another roofing company knock on our door asked if we wanted a free roofing inspection we agreed moments later they told us we had really bad wind damage up there, i then called a trusted roofer David Locke that is very well known in our neighborhood to come take a look and he was able to double check everything and let us know there was in fact no issues on the roof and we just need a little maintenance due to wear and tear. We are so pleased with his work, if there is any roofer that is honest, hard working, and passionate about his job it’s David Locke.Katherine HersheyMay 29, 2026
Our family had a wonderful experience with Universal Roofing from start to finish. Kyle Rushing was incredibly personable and kept us informed every step of the way with regular text updates and progress pictures. Communication was excellent — he was always responsive through email and handled any questions or issues quickly and professionally.
The roofing crew did an amazing job cleaning up afterward, and they even brought my trash can back up from the street, which was such a thoughtful touch!
Kyle Rushing was outstanding to work with. He was friendly, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly without ever being pushy. He even pointed out other helpful ideas and small fixes around our home that weren’t related to the roofing job at all. He left extra supplies neatly stored in our garage and gave us some really cool drone pictures of our new roof and gutters, along with progress photos throughout the project.
Most importantly, Kyle Rushing made my husband and I feel completely confident and safe in our decision. We truly appreciated the honesty, communication, and care Universal Roofing showed throughout the entire process. Highly recommend!Frances PMay 24, 2026

Universal Roofing and Construction Inc. worked with us for over a year to help facilitate getting our homeowner insurance to pay for the damage caused by hail storm.

Universal Roofing and Construction is absolutely top-notch! I watched them working on my neighbor’s roof and was immediately impressed by how professional, quick, and clean they were. On a whim, I asked if they could fix a hole on my roof and they didn’t hesitate for a second (thanks so much Pete). They were incredibly kind, respectful, and helpful, and took care of it quickly and perfectly. They offer fair, honest quotes and clearly take pride in their work. Their workmanship is excellent, they work efficiently without cutting corners, and they leave everything spotless. On top of all that, they’re just genuinely nice people. It’s rare to find a crew this professional and personable. I can’t recommend Universal Roofing and Construction highly enough!Oguz CetinJanuary 22, 2026

Universal Roofing did a great job on our roof replacement after hail damage. We worked with Russell Allen and he helped us through the entire process including answering all of my questions about working through our insurance. The new roof, gutters and downspouts were replaced over 2 days. I would definitely recommend Russell and company!Shannon BettsJanuary 5, 2026
My husband and I had a great experience with Cole and Universal. He knocked on our door shortly after a hail storm in April 2025. I was skeptical at first but I did notice how many 5 star reviews there were, our neighbors also hired Universal and Cole offered to hold our hand through the process since we had not ever filed a claim on our roof before. We filed 3 claims on 3 properties and got 2 approved. Cole was patient, guided us through a denial and appeal to our home insurance and replaced the roofs in one day. His crew was very clean and worked quickly. Cole even came to my personal home to climb on the roof and check something for us months after he finished the job. He’s responsive and very professional. I will use Cole and Universal for all of my future roofing projects. Thanks again!Stacy HolleyDecember 10, 2025
