Gutters are a key part of water management around your home, ensuring rain and snow melt run safely off your roof to downspouts that carry it away from your foundation. Today, more homeowners are choosing seamless gutters over the standard sectional gutters that once were the norm. That’s because seamless gutters offer many benefits that protect your home.
Traditional gutters are comprised of long sections – often 10 feet or 20 feet in length – that are pieced together to fit your roof line. Your gutter expert installs these sections to accommodate the perimeter of your roof as well as gables and other features that need drainage, applying sealant where the joints come together.
Unfortunately, every joint presents a weak portion of your gutter system, prone to catching debris or coming apart. Routine maintenance includes checking these areas for clogs and resealing the joints as often as every year.
Benefits of seamless gutters for your Medina home
Seamless gutters are customized to fit your house and every feature of your roof, resulting in joints only at the corners and ultimately lowering the risk of leaks and clogs. At Total Exterior Systems, our Rainman Gutter team ensures your seamless gutters fit your roof exactly.
Consider the following:
- Our team takes specific measurements of your roof and its features.
- Your aluminum gutters are cut and formed on site for a custom fit.
- Our gutter guards fit perfectly on all our seamless gutter systems.
- You choose the profile and the color for your gutters
Seamless gutters are low maintenance compared with standard gutters, with no seams midway through a run to trap debris and cause a clog. That means less cleaning and no need for annual resealing. By adding leaf guards, you can reduce your need for cleaning even more.
A seamless gutter system comes at a slightly higher cost at installation, but seamless gutters will last longer than a less expensive standard gutter system, often providing more than 20 years of service. That’s because removing the joints means removing the weak points in the run that often start to sag. Seamless gutters also are less likely to pull away from the roofline because they are custom built for an exact fit to your roof.
A beautiful addition to your home
