When you make sure your house is outfitted with properly-fitting gutters, you are making a wonderful investment in your home. Your Keller gutter company, Platinum Gutters, can help you control the amount of rainfall that lands around your foundation with customized solutions that will suit your home best. But what are your options in gutters? Is aluminum best? And what are seamless gutters? You have a number of choices to make — stick around for more information on gutter choice in this week’s blog post.
Types of Gutters at Platinum Gutters
At Platinum Gutters, we offer the types of gutters that are guaranteed to suit Texas homes best. First of all, we prefer seamless gutters, which protect homes far better than the sectional variety that you probably think of when you hear “gutter.” This old variety of gutter is likely to leak, sag, and pull away from your home when it’s placed under the pressure of a real Texas rainstorm. Seamless gutters, by comparison, do not sag and also minimize leaks, so all the water is carried away from your foundation or basement.
Today, the standard gutter system is a five inch, K-style, seamless system crafted from high quality aluminum. Aluminum is the most affordable material for gutters, and it is also the one that’s likely to last the longest. That means this option will cost less to install, then offer even more significant savings over time. That’s a combination that’s hard to beat. The K-style type of gutter also carries more water compared to other types.
In addition to the gutters themselves, you will likely also want a leaf protector. One of the biggest considerations with gutters is cleaning them out — and a gutter guard keeps leaves and other debris out, for easier upkeep and maintenance.
Unique Options Customized to Your Home
When we put together the plan for outfitting your house with gutters, we will begin by evaluating the size of your home and slope of your roof. We also take into account the average rainfall in North Texas (not a lot overall, but potentially large amounts all at once). With over 1,000 different paint combinations to match your paint or the roof, your new gutters will match your home perfectly.
Our team has extensive experience installing gutters on a variety of homes. Whether you need a new installment, repair, or gutter replacement, we will carefully consider your unique needs before we recommend any type of gutter solution.
