FAQs
Why should I choose color-matched downspouts when replacing my gutters in McMinnville?
Color-matched downspouts create a seamless visual transition between your roofline, siding, and gutter system, improving curb appeal and increasing perceived home value. In McMinnville’s damp climate, matching colors also helps disguise the staining that can occur from constant rainfall, so the system looks newer for longer.
What color options are available for my new gutters and downspouts?
We stock more than 30 factory-baked enamel colors—ranging from popular neutrals like white, almond, and charcoal to Pacific Northwest favorites such as evergreen and matte black. If your home features a custom paint code, we can order coil stock painted to that exact Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore reference so your downspouts blend perfectly with siding or trim.
How do you make sure the downspout color actually matches my roof and siding?
During the free on-site consultation, our technician brings full-size metal color samples and places them against your fascia, soffit, and siding in natural light. We also use a digital spectrophotometer to measure your existing paint’s RGB values when an exact match is critical. Once the shade is approved, we form the gutters and downspouts on-site from the chosen coil, ensuring every component is cut from the same color batch.
What materials are your color-matched downspouts made from, and will the finish last in McMinnville’s rainy weather?
Most homeowners opt for 0.027- or 0.032-gauge aluminum because it will never rust, even in Yamhill Valley’s 40+ inches of annual rainfall. The baked-on Kynar 500® or polyester finish is UV-stable and carries a 20- to 30-year manufacturer warranty against fading, chalking, and peeling. We also offer steel and copper downspouts for historic homes—both can be factory-painted or left to patina naturally.
How long does a typical gutter replacement with color-matched downspouts take?
A standard single-family residence (150–250 linear feet of gutter) usually requires one full workday: • Morning—remove and recycle old gutters • Midday—form new seamless gutters on-site and install hidden hangers • Afternoon—attach color-matched downspouts, splash blocks, and leaf guards. Larger or multi-story homes may take two days, but weather permitting we never leave you overnight without a functioning water-control system.
Will new color-matched gutters and downspouts add value to my home?
Yes. Realtors estimate that a well-coordinated, properly sloped gutter system can return 80–90 % of its cost at resale by boosting curb appeal and reassuring buyers about roof drainage. Insurance adjusters also note fewer claims for fascia rot and basement moisture when new gutters are installed, which can help keep premiums lower over time.
