Hey there, I’m Sameer Sawant, and I’m thrilled to be the Owner of The Brothers that just do Gutters of Redmond, WA. I completed my undergraduate studies from Mumbai University in Electrical Engg before graduating from Penn State in Dec 2003 with a Masters of Science in Electrical Engineering. Later I worked in the Information Technology field as a Project Manager implementing technology and software projects for Fortune 500 companies such as Citizens Bank, Pfizer, and BNY Mellon. In 2014, I completed my Masters in Business Administration from Columbia University. Before being a business owner, I was a Product Leader at well-known media-tech companies and start-ups such as HBO, and Buzzer. I am proud to be able to apply my education and experiences to build a stellar team and thrive in the gutter industry.
Before I partnered with The Brothers that just do Gutters, I wanted autonomy that I never got to truly experience in the corporate world. I knew I wanted to develop and lead a team, make connections with other small business owners, and be more involved in the community around me. Now that I’m well into my journey, I’m proud of the culture we have built within our team and the small but meaningful impact we have been able to deliver through 5-star quality gutter/ guard installations and gutter cleaning services, that protect homes throughout the community.
As of February 2024, I have been married for over 18 years to my wife Urmila, and I am the proud parent of a 14-year-old son and a 9-year-old daughter. In 2017, my family and I made the move from a New Jersey suburb to a suburb of Seattle. I enjoy skiing, hiking, barbeques, and spending time with family & friends. I love going to community events and Chamber of Commerce meetings when I’m not with my family or working on a project with my team
In 1999 Ken Parsons had just left the teaching industry and started his own gutter contractor company under the name Waterfall Seamless Gutters. In 2002 Ken’s younger brother, Ryan Parsons, accepted a job on the truck with Ken after the Graphic Design company he was working for crashed. In 2006 the Brothers briefly changed their name to Water-flow Gutter Solutions before finally becoming “The Brothers that just do Gutters” in 2009. The name we all know and love came from a radio ad the Brothers ran just a couple years prior to the change. Everyone who heard it liked it so much they thought it was the company name so Ken and Ryan stopped fighting it and adopted the name. With the name change came a few title changes as well. We decided we no longer wanted to be salesman, presidents or owners but rather Solutionists©, which embodied what we represent to our clients. Ken Parsons was re-entitled Senior Solutionist©, and Ryan Parsons became Chief Solutionist©.
Being in the gutter contractor business for over 15 years was an effort of adaptation and determination. We have been able to be successful for so long because we made our main focus the customer. The Brothers that just do Gutters offer a wide variety of installations, cleaning and repairs in a small niche industry of seamless rain gutters and leaf guards. We have been able to grow the reliability of our services and offer only the best products by focusing all our effort on gutter systems and guards.
Our mantra, “Reinventing Contractor Service™” is the phrase we live by in all areas of our business, every day. The story of The Brothers that just do Gutters began with hard work and a dream to be a community-loved contractor. We wanted to reinvent how clients experience contractor services and provide a level of customer service and reliability that was lacking in our industry.
Along the way, we had to learn to move at the speed of business and invent many new methods never before implemented in the contractor field. Meeting our goal of being a five-star contractor and reinventing contractor service meant focusing on every detail of the job. By creating a unique experience with the homeowner, investing in our employees, sourcing the best products, and creating training methods for publishing every review a homeowner made on our independent review services, we started to rise above the rest.
