A Partnership Delivering Seamless Rain Gutters, Premium Insulation & Expert Installation
Whether you need seamless rain gutters, top-tier insulation materials, or expert installation, you can count on us for reliable, high-quality solutions tailored to your needs. Our partnership with OJ Insulation brings together two trusted California brands to serve homeowners, builders, and property managers with a single, coordinated team.
Our Story: L.I. Metal Systems — A Legacy of Innovation Since 1970
Founded in 1970 by industry pioneers Tony Chiovare and Peter Bueckert, L.I. Metal Systems was California’s first seamless rain gutter company. With a bold idea and a small investment, they introduced seamless, custom rain gutters that dramatically reduced leaks and improved home protection.
For more than five decades, we’ve led the industry with premium materials, advanced installation practices, and craftsmanship that stands the test of time. Highlights include:
• 54+ years serving California homeowners and builders
• 45 million+ feet of seamless rain gutters installed
• Decades of expertise: installers averaging nearly 20 years of experience; management with ~30 years of tenure
• Thousands of maintenance-free soffit & fascia upgrades and miles of gutter protection systems
Today, the Chiovare family’s second generation continues that tradition of quality and customer care—now strengthened through our partnership with OJ Insulation.
