About Foothills Gutter Pro
Locally owned. Family operated. Built on craftsmanship and a handshake. Serving the NC Foothills since 2025.
Built in Hickory.
Built for the Foothills.
Foothills Gutter Pro is the gutter division of ByDesign Builders & Developers, LLC — a Hickory-based construction company founded by Chris Taylor and Bobby Robinson. After years of building and renovating homes across the Catawba Valley, Chris and Bobby kept running into the same problem: their clients couldn't find a gutter company that showed up on time, did clean work, and stood behind it.
So they built one. Foothills Gutter Pro launched in 2025 as a focused, locally owned gutter company serving Catawba, Caldwell, and Alexander Counties. Same crews. Same standards. The same handshake-and-your-word approach we built our construction business on — applied specifically to gutter installation, repair, and maintenance.
When you call us, you reach owners. When we send a crew, you get our crew — not a subcontractor we've never met. And when the job is done, you have a written lifetime workmanship warranty in your hand.
The People Behind the Work
Two owners, one phone number, zero call centers. Chris and Bobby are personally involved in every project — from the first measurement to the final walkthrough.
Chris leads day-to-day operations, scheduling, and customer communication. If you're getting a quote, an update, or a follow-up call — there's a good chance it's coming from Chris.
Bobby runs the field side — leading our crews, ensuring every install meets our standards, and stepping onto job sites personally. Decades of construction experience guide every job.
Three Promises
We Make to Every Customer
We built this company on the way we'd want a contractor to treat our own families. These aren't slogans — they're how we run every job.
The Quote Is the Price
The number on your written estimate is the number you pay. No mid-job upcharges. No "we found something" surprises. If we missed something on the bid, that's on us — not your wallet.
Lifetime Workmanship Warranty
Every new seamless install is backed by our lifetime workmanship warranty (barring acts of God). If something we did fails, we come back and make it right — no questions, no hassle.
Owner Accessible
Chris's number is on every invoice. If you can't reach a crew, you reach an owner. We don't hide behind dispatchers or ticket systems — we're a small business, and we act like one.
Licensed. Insured. Accountable.
We carry the licenses, insurance, and association memberships you should expect from any professional contractor working on your home.
