Seamless Gutters

Gutters are a crucial component of your home’s water management system. Without gutters, you will easily wind up with water damage on your roof and other areas of your home’s interior and exterior. Sectional gutters are the typical choice among homeowners because they are cheap and easy to install. However, most gutter contractors will recommend a seamless gutter installation. Seamless gutters offer innumerable advantages to the homeowners who choose to install them on their property.

What Are Seamless Gutters?

Seamless gutters are a trough placed at the lowest horizontal edge of a roof to collect and control rain water. They are also known as eavestroughs, rain gutters, and house gutters. There are many different styles, sizes and materials used to create seamless gutters. “Seamless” specifically refers to the building and installation process that is done on site to prevent the need for seams in straight linear runs of house gutter.

Eavestroughs and rain gutters have been around since people first experienced rain. Whether you are rerouting rain away from your tent, home, or city, your goal is to move the rain water to a location that allows for comfort and prevents damage. Water and flood prevention using troughs and gutter systems have been an age old project all over the world.

Why Seamless Gutters?

Benefits of a Seamless Gutter for Your Home

Seamless gutters offer a perfect fit… every time

Because each seamless gutter system is custom-fashioned for each unique property, homeowners are guaranteed a perfect fit… every time. When gutters fit well, they function well. An expertly-crafted system will offer the performance you need.

Seamless gutters experience fewer clogs & backups

he joints and seams of sectional gutters lead to one thing: clogs. They make the buildup of leaves, twigs and other debris inside the gutter much more problematic. When these blockages become too large the system is unable to flush out the water creating damaging backups.

Seamless gutters offer lasting appeal & beauty

One big benefit of seamless gutters is the lasting beauty and appeal they provide to the home. Many find them more aesthetically appealing than sectional gutters. They are often constructed from aluminum but can also be made from copper and steel as well. Most can be painted to match the home’s exterior. Many also offer a baked-on enamel finish that lasts for years and never requires painting.

Seamless gutters require little maintenance

Because seamless gutters have less joints, they don’t accumulate as much debris as sectional gutters do. They are also less attractive to little critters looking for a home. This all leads to less time spent cleaning and maintaining your seamless gutter system.

Seamless gutters are less likely to leak

Anytime a gutter has a joint where two sections meet, there is the possibility of leakage problems. These joints can widen from each other. Holes can form. Rust can begin to take over. Seamless gutters have less joints and, therefore, less leaks and rust.

Minimal Maintenance

With less opportunity for leaks and clogging, seamless gutters require minimal maintenance compared to sectional gutter systems. Clearing out your gutters can be an extremely hazardous task that is known to result in serious injuries. You will undeniably enjoy this benefit of seamless gutters.

When we purchased our home two years ago, the roof had not been maintained which eventually resulted in a couple leaks as well as significant amount of moss on the concrete tiles. We knew a flat addon and all the valleys at the very least had to be either replaced, or the very least have major maintenance completed. After going through many bids we fortunately found Alex whom was very professional, respectful and fair on pricing. He worked with us to ensure we knew everything that would be done, how it would be done and with what materials. When they found additional damage we had been unaware of, he gave us options and made us feel confident our roof was in good shape by the time his team completed. Fast forward 6 months, we’ve just had our first bit of rain and everything is holding up well.

I am very pleased with the new roof Alex and his crew installed last week on my house in South Land Park Hills. I received five quotes (more but only five showed up) and I chose Alex Perez Roofing because he was reliable, had great references, is a family business, has been roofing for many years, and his quote was very reasonable.

Alex consistently followed up with me and when they began the work he provided excellent customer service, timely responses to phone calls/texts, and installed my new roof in 4-days which included gutter guards and repairing some holes where I had the wind turbines removed. He installed the ridge vent as I requested and the roof passed the permit process. He even sent me pics of the new roof since I live in San Diego.

From the first time I spoke with Alex, he was professional, real, good guy, and modest. I had a very large tree fall in a storm and land on my roof. It did quite a bit of damage to the roof and our patio cover. He gave me an estimate and when i scheduled the roof repair, he told me it would take 4 days. Alex even took time out of his personal time in the evenings to answer questions and talk. More…
