Installing A Gutter System

Seamless gutter installation means that gutters are made on-site by rolling a metal sheet through a gutter-forming machine. Then the installer secures it to the side of the home in a continuous run.

Sectional gutters are much more difficult and time-consuming to install. Sectional gutters are most commonly made of vinyl or plastic. These types of materials are not available as a seamless gutter since these materials cannot be made into a roll form. As a sectional gutter system is installed, each section must be mitered and sealed together making the installation process much longer.

SECURITY AND STRENGTH
Seamless gutters are typically stronger simply because they do not have miters joining pieces together. The more seams a gutter system has, the higher the potential is for leaks. Sectional gutters are also less sturdy due to the materials used, making them more susceptible to damage.

Repair Ability

Repairing a seamless system is more difficult since the entire system will typically be in need of a replacement. This tends to happen in the process of repair. However, in the event the gutter system comes off the house, a repair can address this issue.

Cost Comparison

You may assume that sectional gutters are less expensive than the cost of seamless gutters. But, the cost is actually nearly identical because of all the the extra pieces, caulking, and tools needing to complete a sectional gutter install. Also, because sectional gutters may be less sturdy and are often a DIY installation, they are not likely to last as long as a seamless gutter installation. This may mean more costs in the future.

Size Of Seamless Aluminum Gutters

A 5-inch seamless aluminum gutter is widely used in some areas of the country however, 6-inch gutters and 7-inch gutters are becoming increasingly popular. Seamless aluminum gutters also come in even larger sizes, which are typically industrial or commercial-style gutters.

The differences between 5-inch, 6-inch, and 7-inch gutters are their size, and the capacity of water they can hold. In cases where you often experience heavy rainfall and/or rainwater is continually overshooting your gutter system, a 6” gutter or 7″ gutter system may be the best for your home.

In addition to climate; the roofline, surface area, and pitch of your roof are important factors in determining if you should install a 5-inch, 6-inch, or 7-inch gutter system. Interchanging two different sizes of gutter within the same gutter system can also be a cost-effective solution for areas of your home needing higher capacity.
