Gutters have the most important job of deterring water from the rooftop to an area away from the home. Without properly working gutters, damage can occur to the roof, siding, windows, and even the foundation. It is wise to consider the health of your gutter system which will assist with a properly working roof system.
Seamless gutters are a wise option when it comes to upgrading your gutter system. This system is almost flawless when installed properly and can offer years of satisfaction.
What is a seamless gutter system?
It is best to understand, first and foremost, what a seamless gutter system is. As the name implies, this system is one long piece of continuous metal, custom-cut on-site, and installed securely to the home. It offers no seams. This system, once installed, will serve years of leak-free usage.
What are some great benefits of seamless gutters?
Lack of Seams
As the name implies, there are no seams to contend with in a seamless gutter. This means there will be a minimal area for any debris to be collected. The water can freely flush out any leaves, dirt, or debris collected in the gutter. Sectional gutter systems often fail and have complications because the brackets holding the gutters in place can rust, causing holes to be formed and creating drainage issues. You won’t have those issues with a seamless gutter system!
Long Lifespan
20 to 25 years is a standard lifespan of a seamless gutter system. This product can last the time frame because they continue going strong, doing its intended job, year after year. The cost of seamless gutters may be slightly more expensive than a sectional gutter system, but considering they last longer, the cost can balance out between the two.
Curb Appeal
The streamlined sophisticated look of a seamless gutter system is unbeatable when matched in color to the siding. There is little to distract the eye when looking at the exterior of a home, and the seamless gutter offers an elegant visual appearance.
Less Leakage
As noted above, this system offers a more durable strength in water removal. The lack of joints will allow the system to continually move the water to the downspouts and successfully away from the home. There is little area for debris to collect and build up.
The use of gutter guards is a wise consideration, regardless of the type of gutter system you choose. Gutter guards are mesh or screen secured over the gutters, only allowing small particles and water to filter through. This will allow the gutters to have a longer life making it impossible to clog the gutters. (Why Seamless Gutters?)
