Seamless gutters mean exactly what you may suspect from its terminology. They are gutters that, unlike the more common aluminum material, have zero or very few joints to compromise rainwater drainage. Of course, having fewer joints not only makes these gutters less likely to leak (they almost never do) but they are also much more aesthetically pleasing. These gutters are very popular for commercial and industrial buildings with long, continuously flowing roofs, fancy historic buildings where beauty always matters and newer homes wherein homeowners simply want their homes to look their very best.
Seamless gutters have earned their reputation for utter dependability, in part, due to the process that makes this material so very strong. This material is developed through a particular process with a few names, including “strain hardening,” “work hardening,” and “cold forming.” All terminology here refers to the same process of strengthening metal. If you have ever seen pictures of a man or several individuals dangling from a rooftop by its gutters, it is likely this material that is strong enough to handle the weight of several individuals. When the highest performance for rooftop drainage matters to your, you should strongly consider the advantages of seamless gutters. They include:
Strength … With the various terminologies available describing how material for these gutters are stronger, you can trust this is the best material you will find. When quality materials matter to you for your building, seamless gutters are the way to go for the challenges of drainage.
Infallibility … OK, so perhaps the saying is true that nothing is quite infallible, but these gutters come pretty close. With an extraordinarily dense metal and very few if any joints involved, precipitation will get to where in needs to get to, and that is off of your roof and away from your home.
Beauty … Long, continuous lines accentuating the style of your home along your rooftop; you may not think of gutters as an opportunity for beauty, which is what makes seamless gutters so appealing.
In our part of the country, with our elevation, the cold days are very cold. That may include heavy bouts of rain and extremely heavy weight when snow falls on our rooftops. It is plenty of stress to put on your roof, and it is not advisable to lean on weak materials. With plenty of weight from snow and ice occurring throughout, a weak aluminum gutter system hardly seems dependable under our varying and frequently challenging weather conditions. Let us discuss the goals for your property to see how our work can help you.
