Essex Seamless Gutters INC.

Essex Seamless Gutters has been doing one job since 1986 out of Peabody: seamless aluminum and copper gutters, downspouts, fascia and soffit, and vinyl siding. By its own account the company covers most of the North Shore, into Boston, and as far as southern New Hampshire, and it says it's still a family operation — founded by Doug Ferguson Sr., now run by his sons Doug Jr. and Andy. Forty years in, nothing here points to trouble. The Better Business Bureau rates it A+, and on Google it sits at a perfect 5.0 across 16 ratings. Across the 13 written reviews collected between 2022 and 2025, the tone is uniformly positive, with no complaint pattern turning up on any of the sources checked — a long, quiet, clean record rather than a flashy one. The honest caveat is scale: 16 Google ratings and an unaccredited BBB file is a thin public record for a business this old, and the most recent reviews on hand date to 2025, not this year. None of that is a red flag by itself, but it's worth asking directly about current crew availability, lead times, and pricing before booking, since the public track record hasn't been refreshed recently. For homeowners in its stated coverage area who need straightforward gutter, downspout, or fascia/soffit/siding work, the history checks out cleanly across every source that has one.
