Hidden and EPDM Gutters

Built-in gutters, also referred to as “box gutters” are a concealed roof drainage system but unlike traditional gutters Hidden gutters are exactly that, hidden. One feature of Hidden Gutters is that they are not readily visible and don’t alter the appearance of the buildings they are installed on. This is a huge advantage to buildings with historic value as it will not take away from the features of the building.

A challenge with Hidden Gutters is that they get overlooked from a maintenance standpoint, and without a proper maintenance schedule can result in damage from neglect. Just keeping your Hidden Gutters free from debris and build-up is the simplest way to keep them working without issue. If you do not want to change the look of your building, you should consider Hidden Gutters.
