Old gutters can leak, block up, and even become unsightly with years of built-up rust and residue. When you decide to replace yours, consider choosing seamless gutters.  Read on if you want to learn why these gutters might be the right fit for your drainage needs.

Why Should You Install Seamless Gutters for Your Home?

1. Fewer Blockages

Gutters with seams create ridges where water backs up and can create clumps of debris. After several rains, leaves, dirt, or other particles can create a full blockage. This can lead to a major leak that may weaken your home foundation without appropriate maintenance. Choosing seamless can mitigate the chances of this happening.

2. Less Maintenance

Because seamless gutters have fewer pieces of hardware holding them together, they don’t require as much maintenance as typical gutters. There are fewer chances for debris buildup which means you won’t have to get on a ladder every season to clean them out. There will be seams at the corners of your roof, regardless of the gutter type you choose, though, so check there first when looking to do occasional cleanouts. 

3. Cost-Effectiveness

Seamless gutters must be measured and perfectly fit your house. This means there is more upfront labor, so their cost is a bit higher than regular ones. However, because they don’t need as much attention and have fewer reasons for repairs, seamless gutters have a higher return.
