Standard Gutters vs. Seamless Gutters
Before moving ahead with a gutter installation, you’ll need to decide whether you want to have standard gutters or seamless gutters installed. The difference between the two lies in how they’re affixed to the side of the house. Standard gutters (also referred to as “sectional gutters”) arrive to the gutter installation site in separate pieces, each of which is usually 10 to 20 feet in length. The installers join together however many pieces are needed to span the length of the house, then weld the pieces together, forming “seams.”
As their name would suggest, seamless gutters don’t have any of these seams. This is because the installers cut them to the exact length of the house using an on-site roll-forming machine, so there aren’t any separate pieces to weld together. The lack of seams makes seamless gutters a much better option than standard gutters. Here’s why:
- Seamless gutters are less likely to leak. Even though the sections in standard gutters are welded together, the seams are prone to leaking, which defeats the whole purpose of having gutters installed on your home in the first place.
- Seamless gutters don’t require as much maintenance. When debris enters your gutters, it’s supposed to flow toward the downspout and exit there. However, debris tends to catch on the seams in standard gutters and can eventually form a clog that has to be removed by hand.
- Seamless gutters are more attractive. Because seamless gutters are essentially one long piece of metal, they generally look sleeker than standard gutters, which are broken up by the various seams.
The Importance of Proper Gutter Installation
We’ve been repairing foundations at local homes for years and years, so we understand the importance of performing top-quality gutter installation work. When they’re operating as intended, gutters keep water flowing away from your house. However, if gutters are installed improperly, or if they become clogged, they’ll allow water to splash onto your home’s foundation, over time leading to cracking and erosion. You can count on our team of trained experts to protect your foundation and properly install your new gutter system.
