FAQs
What are the main benefits of choosing seamless aluminum gutters for my Sewanee home?
Seamless aluminum gutters are formed from a single piece of metal, which means there are no joints along straight runs where leaks typically develop. They are rust-proof, lightweight yet durable, and custom-cut on-site to fit your roofline perfectly. In Sewanee’s mix of heavy rains and autumn leaf fall, seamless construction reduces clogging and water damage risk while aluminum’s natural corrosion resistance withstands the region’s humidity and temperature swings.
How long can I expect seamless aluminum gutters to last?
With proper installation and routine maintenance, seamless aluminum gutters usually last 20–30 years in the Sewanee area. Their baked-on enamel finish resists fading and chalking, and aluminum does not rust like steel. Periodic cleaning, downspout flushing, and timely resealing of end caps and miters can extend service life to the upper end of that range.
Do seamless aluminum gutters come in different colors and styles?
Yes. We offer more than 20 factory-baked colors that match or complement most roof and trim shades common in Sewanee homes, from classic whites and tans to darker bronze and charcoal. Because the color is bonded to the metal, it resists peeling and fading better than field-painted gutters. You can also choose from K-style profiles in 5" or 6" sizes, as well as half-round options for historic properties.
How much does it cost to replace gutters with seamless aluminum?
Pricing depends on gutter size, home perimeter footage, number of downspouts, and any special accessories such as leaf guards. In Sewanee, the average 5" seamless aluminum gutter replacement runs $9–$12 per linear foot installed, while 6" systems range from $11–$15. We provide a free on-site inspection and written quote so you know the exact cost before work begins.
What kind of maintenance will my new seamless aluminum gutters require?
Although fewer joints mean fewer leak points, routine maintenance is still important. We recommend semi-annual cleanings—typically in late spring and late fall—to remove leaves and debris common to Sewanee’s wooded neighborhoods. Inspect hangers, sealant, and downspouts at the same time. Installing optional gutter guards can greatly reduce cleaning frequency without compromising water flow.
How long does installation take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
Most residential gutter replacements in Sewanee are completed in one day. Our crew arrives with a portable roll-forming machine, fabricates each gutter section to exact length on-site, and installs it without exposing your fascia for prolonged periods. We remove and haul away old gutters, perform a final water test, and clean up the work area, minimizing disruption so you can resume normal activities the same day.
