Seamless Aluminum: Lower cost, but still a high value addition to any home
All homes need rain gutters, so make sure that the system you are using is both the best designed and the best engineered system on the market – but also make sure that it represents the best value for money. Aluminum gutter systems can do just that.
Aluminum gutters have many advantages over other gutter systems:
- Aluminum is a very durable material that will not rust or corrode under normal use
- Aluminum can be painted in a range of colors that allows for color coordination with roofs other design requirements
- Aluminum gutters are very light and therefore require no special support structures
- Aluminum gutters are very friendly on the homeowner’s budget
So what exactly is a “seamless” gutter – and why are they better? Well as the name implies, seamless gutters eliminate the seams commonly found in sectional gutter systems. In a traditional, sectional gutter system (i.e., installed using pre-formed lengths of aluminum gutter) if the length of gutter needed exceeds the length of a pre-formed gutter section (which it usually does), multiple sections need to be hooked together until the full length is reached. Every time 2 sections are connected, a seam is created – which also creates another opportunity for leaks to form.
In a seamless gutter system, this does not happen. Sure, there are still some joints, even in a seamless system (at each end for example), but by eliminating the seams within the length of the gutter run, the opportunities for leaks are also eliminated.
