The Anatomy of Seamless Gutters: What’s the Difference?

At Noble Roofing, we are passionate about roofs. This means that we’re keen on maintaining the entire roofing system, not just the shingles that most homeowners think of when they hear the word “roof”. Your gutters play an important role that often gets overlooked until problems get serious. They send rainwater away from the eaves and foundation, which helps keep your roof, attic, and basement dry.

We promote seamless gutters often, and for good reason. What is the anatomy of a seamless gutter, and what makes them different from traditional gutters?

The Anatomy of Seamless Gutters: What’s the Difference?

Seamless gutters are a sure upgrade from traditional gutters. They originated from the average homeowner’s need for a higher quality system. Once you learn of its benefits, you may want to make a switch yourself!

No Seams= No Leaks!

Seamless gutters don’t have seams, which means that there isn’t a gap between them and your roof. This lack of space between your roof and gutters means that water can’t leak between them and your roof. They aren’t separate attachments that allow gaps between your eaves and fascia boards. Instead, they’re tightly fused to your roof to not allow leaks to come between them.

They Just Look Better

While traditional gutters look like external attachments to your home, seamless gutters actually look like part of your roof. If you get custom Seamless gutters, you will get an exact fit that blends with your home’s existing design. It can even make your home look even more appealing by installing an attractive “end” to your roof on all sides that is brand new! These gutters blend effortlessly with your home’s soffit and fascia to boost your curb appeal!

They’re Stronger & Easier to Maintain

The unique seamless design helps maintain your gutter system’s strength so that it’s not affected by expansion, contraction, freezing, and strong winds. We’ll securely attach your seamless gutters with discreet but strong hangers that are stronger than the spike and ferrule systems that attach traditional aluminum gutters. Seamless gutters can also be made of steel, which is incredibly long-lasting and tough against the outdoor elements.

Also, because seamless gutters don’t have joints, there are fewer parts that will require maintenance through inevitable wear and tear.

There Are Many Design Options

Seamless rain gutters come in plenty of patterns and colors to match your home’s current aesthetics. We can always give you our expert recommendations if you are looking to “jazz up” the look of your home! Your update can match your existing soffit and fascia or we can also replace them with sturdy Hardieboard to guarantee and even longer roof life.
