Seamless gutters, alternately known as continuous gutters, are a type of gutter that consists of one continuous piece that spans the length of each roof edge. The purpose of the seamless gutter is to direct the flow of rainwater in an orderly stream and prevent unrestrained water pooling and saturation along the foundation and walls of your house. Seamless gutters are popular among homeowners because of the following features:
– Seamless. As the name implies, seamless gutters are free of unbecoming seams and joints. They are made on site to custom fit every eave of your home.
– Secure design. Since there are no joints or seams in a seamless gutter, the design of this gutter type is far more secure for holding water. While a regular gutter could crack and leak at the seams, this is one less potential problem with a seamless gutter.
– Easy installation. Seamless gutters are installed using hidden hangers with screws, so that there are no unsightly nails every few feet. The gutter itself is formed on site and can easily be installed in a single day.
Seamless gutters are aluminum and enamel coated and come in a variety of colors.
