Seamless gutters are exactly what they sound like: gutters without sections. These gutters come in long, uninterrupted pieces free of the connections that can cause a variety of problems for homeowners. If you are considering seamless gutters, take a moment to learn about their benefits and the best time to install them.

Advantages of Seamless Gutters & When to Schedule Installation

Benefits

Unlike sectional options, there’s little risk of leaks with seamless gutters. Sectional joints start to loosen over time or their sealant wears away, leaving your home vulnerable to leaks. Rainwater and melting ice pool around the foundation of your home when gutters leak, resulting in basement flooding issues, water damage, and mold and mildew growth. Seamless gutters help significantly in preventing these issues.

“Going seamless” also means less maintenance. Sectional joints provide plenty of opportunities for debris to collect, resulting in clogged gutters that allow rainwater to either pool around your foundation or back up under roofing shingles to cause leaks. Seamless gutters provide far fewer opportunities for this to happen.

One further benefit of seamless gutters is that they’re custom-made to fit your home perfectly.

Best Times to Install

The ideal time to install seamless gutters is before the fall season gets fully underway. Summer installations help prevent leaves from collecting at gutter joints during the fall as well as ice and marginal snow buildup in the winter. Since summer is also typically drier, your home improvement team will have an easier time installing this important roofing system component.

Your home will subsequently enjoy more protection from fall and winter weather—not to mention spring rains—to prevent costly maintenance problems, such as wet ceilings and mold infestations in the basement.
