Why Choose Gutters Without Joints?
When it's raining and those old gutters are leaking it's time to consider replacing them. A good alternative to avoid deterioration in gutter joints is to install gutters without joints. Joint-less gutters are made from long sections of steel, aluminum, and similar materials. These types of gutters are molded to the linear shape of the roofs and installed in one piece. Obviously, they are made to measure and on many occasions on-site with specific machinery for the case.
Jointless gutters offer many advantages over piece gutters,
as the latter are cut to standard measurements and sealed together to achieve
the proper length. The problem with sectional gutters is that the joints will always
be a weak point whereby the gutters will tend to show cracks and leaks.
Advantages of seamless gutters
Minimize leakage
By not having gaskets in the middle of the sections, these
gutters are less likely to leak. Sectional systems are joined with sealants,
gaskets or welds, and obviously, their wear and tear always begins at these
points.
The seamless gutters provide a smooth surface for water to
flow easily into downspouts. This means that there will be no water drips that
slowly erode the soil around the house, causing damage to the garden, the
facade or even the foundation of the house.
Less waste
The fact that they do not have gaskets means that less
debris and leaves will accumulate and clog the gutters. Sectional gutters tend
to snag leaves, twigs, seeds, and so on; waste that falls from trees and naturally
ends up in our gutters.
With seamless gutters, the only connection points are at the
corners and downspouts. Therefore, fewer joints where debris can be trapped,
which means optimal water flow; drags which drag debris down the downspouts
easily.
Low maintenance
Perhaps the greatest benefit of seamless gutters is the lack
of maintenance that characterizes them. Less leakage and less mess mean we
minimize gutter cleaning and maintenance. In addition, jointless gutters are
made of metallic materials, stronger materials that withstand the harshest
conditions and deteriorate much less than PVC sectional gutters.
While seasonal cleaning and regular checks are still
recommended with any type of gutter ; We can guarantee that jointless gutters
require less maintenance and are rarely seriously damaged.
Aesthetically attractive
The gutters without joints offer a more uniform and aesthetic appearance to the line of your roof and facade. They are practically camouflaged with the rest of the house. In addition, taking into account that they are of higher quality, they are offered in a wide variety of shapes, colors and finishes. This allows you to choose between many models, more than one of which will perfectly match the architectural style of your facade. It is recommended that professionals install seamless gutters. The work of a company specialized in gutter installation shows; the quality of the materials and the finish of the installation indicate that experienced professionals have installed them. Professionally installed gutters tend to be much more durable and we minimize the chance of having to make repairs.
