Challenge
Our client requested a seamless, clog free gutter installation for their home.
Solution
On a Gutter Replacement project in North Andover, we wanted to give you a good idea of what goes into the installation of our clog free gutter. Before it goes up on the wall, our no clog gutter has a special high back system which is 7″ high and prevents water from getting behind the system and onto the fascia boards. You can see our brackets are mounted every two feet in the system.
Our gutters’ hood is installed on top of a seamless troft. The hood sits on top of the brackets and prevents any leaves and heavy debris from getting inside the gutters. If you look at our downspouts, it is twice the size of a regular downspout. We say what gets into our system will get out. The hood keeps out 85 percent of the debris, and what doesn’t go over the top gets flushed into our extra large downpipes.
On the home, the huge seamless piece we put on the home looks great. If you can see it on the camera it actually looks like a piece of crown molding. We can achieve a traditional gutter look with the hood on top, this does not feed into the shingles it sits under the drip edge, which is what you want to look for in a product. On this particular project the homeowner wanted the color of the downspouts to match the house, so we painted the sections that were against the vinyl siding.
