Gutters for Lake Forest homes under the eucalyptus
Lake Forest gets its name from two things you can still see from the roof. In the early 1900s Dwight Whiting planted about 400 acres of eucalyptus near Serrano Creek for a lumber venture, and in the late 1960s Occidental Petroleum built a residential community in and around those groves, with two man-made lakes at the center. Today homes and condos line the Beach and Tennis Club lake and the Sun and Sail Club lake, and the tall gums still shade the streets between Ridge Route, Jeronimo, Lake Forest Drive and Serrano Road. The area was known as El Toro until residents picked the Lake Forest name and incorporated in 1991.
Eucalyptus is hard on gutters. The trees drop long leaves, seed capsules and strips of bark all year, and the bark is the worst of it, because it lies flat across a downspout opening and stops the water cold. Many homes here date to the original planned community, so we also see older runs pulling away from soft fascia and corners that leak every time it rains. Winter storms are the test: a gutter that looked full in October overflows onto the patio in January.
Sara Baayoun owns The Brothers That Just Do Gutters for South Orange County, and our local crew works Lake Forest from the lakes to Heritage Hill and the streets around Serrano Creek Park. We clean and flush gutters by hand, form seamless gutters on site, repair leaks and sags, replace rotted fascia and install BroGuard micro-mesh that keeps eucalyptus litter on top of the guard and out of the trough.

The right kind does. Eucalyptus drops long leaves and flat strips of bark that slide through open screens and plug downspouts. BroGuard is a stainless micro-mesh, so bark and leaves stay on top and dry out or blow off while the rain passes through. Homes right under the big Lake Forest groves still benefit from an occasional check of the roof valleys.
Without guards, at least twice a year, in fall and spring, and some homes near Serrano Creek and the original groves need a third visit. Eucalyptus sheds in every season, not just autumn. If you are tired of the schedule, BroGuard or our maintenance program keeps Lake Forest gutters clear without you climbing a ladder.
Sometimes. If the runs are straight and the leaks are at a few corners, a repair and reseal can buy years. If the gutter sags between hangers, leaks at many seams or is fastened into soft fascia, replacement with seamless runs formed on site is the better use of your money. We show you what we find and write up both options.
Yes. Seamless aluminum comes in many factory colors, and we bring samples so you can match the palette your association has approved. Around the Beach and Tennis Club and Sun and Sail Club lakes, neat lines and hidden hangers matter, and that is how we install every run.
