Our Founders & Philosophy

Craftsmanship Built on Direct Trust

Founded and operated by Brody Thiel and Max Schultz, we deliver custom-extruded rainwater management systems engineered to protect luxury rooflines for generations.

We believe high-end architecture demands personal accountability. When you partner with us, you work directly with the craftsmen who design, extrude, and install your system on-site—ensuring uncompromising precision from initial consultation to final inspection.

Purpose & Principles

Our Core Mission & Pillars

We exist to solve structural water management challenges through master metalsmithing, direct founder involvement, and zero compromises on raw material gauge.

Zero-Compromise Craft

We reject pre-fabricated, thin-gauge gutters that warp and leak. Every linear foot is continuously extruded on-site using heavy-gauge metals and hand-soldered fittings.

  • Heavy 0.032" Aluminum & 16oz Copper
  • Monolithic seam-free long runs
  • Hand-formed corner miters

Owner Accountability

No sub-contractors or outsourced crews. Brody Thiel and Max Schultz personally oversee design, measurement, extrusion, and mounting on every project.

  • Direct communication with owners
  • On-site quality supervision
  • Personal installation guarantee

Decade Protection

Water is the ultimate destroyer of home foundations and rooflines. Our mission is to build drainage systems engineered to withstand decades of severe weather.

  • High surge velocity flow calculations
  • Heavy snow and ice load bracing
  • Foundation decay prevention
Direct Leadership

Brody Thiel & Max Schultz

When you hire us, you don't get sales reps or third-party sub-contractors. You get both owners on site, leading the engineering, roll-forming, and precision mounting.

Phase 01

Joint Site Survey

Brody and Max inspect roof pitch, fascia board conditions, and flow requirements together on day one.

Phase 02

On-Site Extrusion

Continuous custom runs formed directly from our mobile rig, eliminating factory seam vulnerabilities.

Phase 03

Dual Founder Sign-Off

Both founders perform water pressure testing and structural verification before handover.
