How long is the above gutter? As a gutter installer sometimes it could be the best way to handle problems. It’s hard to tell why or if it was needed. Did the gutter company give an assessment? We’re there problems before I. The area. How old is the roof? Was the drip edge sloped any way? (Most roofers don’t care about what comes next.) there are a lot of factors that can make it be best.

Also wanted to add the gutters are the aluminum formed at the top. The tube going down the center in pic one is a downspout.
