Gutters are part of what makes your home look best

There’s a lot of hard work that goes into keeping your home looking its best and it seems sometimes like the work is never done. Between household chores and yard work, it can feel like a herculean task to keep everything in good working order. 

That being said, there are some things that can be done to make your house look amazing that require nearly zero effort on your part. Perhaps the easiest way to do so is to have seamless gutters installed. Not only do they do a great job keeping your home safe from water damage, they also look great! Let’s take a look at some of the ways that seamless gutters can improve your home’s look!

Curb Appeal

The difference between seamless and sectional gutters is that seamless gutters are custom cut to attach to your home. This means that they do not have any unsightly joints where two pieces of pre-cut material are attached, forming a uniform seal along your roof. Seamless gutters look better because they look like a clean, natural part of your home. They are less noticeable and appear more like native architectural features of your home, which means that they look great to any and all passersby.

Customizable Colors

One of the most frustrating parts of most sectional gutters is the fact that they are usually all the same drab color. They often do not match the color of the house which is frustrating to homeowners who have spent a great deal of time carefully considering the aesthetics of their home’s exterior. Seamless gutters correct this issue by being offered in a variety of colors to match any home. If you aren’t a fan of the plain off-white hue of your current gutters, seamless gutters are a great solution.

Protect Your Landscaping

One of the biggest advantages of seamless gutters is that they leak far less than sectional gutters. As they age, sectional gutters have the tendency to spring leaks at the joints where they connect, which will inevitably become worse and worse. 

So what does this have to do with your landscaping? Gutters are designed to divert water away from your house, and when they are not functioning properly that water will pool at your foundation and run off in paths it takes. This is extremely rough on your landscaping as it will wash away landscaping materials and drown your plants. Installing seamless gutters is a surefire way to keep water where it needs to be and protect the hard work you’ve put in.

Fewer Clogs

Seamless gutters are much better suited to washing away debris and staying clean. Sectional gutters have joints that will snag twigs, sticks, and leaves causing other detritus to pile up. When clogs happen, you will have the unenviable situation of visible piles of plant matter overloading your gutters which will be visible from the street and make your home look dirty and unkempt. This is not an issue with seamless gutters as they are not prone to clogs and are easy to clean.

No More Rust

Seamless gutters are typically made from more durable materials such as galvanized steel which don’t rust. Sectional gutters have the disadvantage of usually being made from weaker materials that aren’t rated to deter rust. Another knock against sectional gutters is that their joints will deteriorate much more quickly, which means that rust becomes an inevitability as they age. Seamless gutters, with their hardy materials and lack of joints, don’t develop unsightly rust patches at all.
