What is the purpose of gutters? |
The purpose of gutters and downspout
systems is to collect rainwater from the roof and direct
it away from the building foundations and also from dripping
onto the walls, they prevent the water falling directly
onto people in entrances, driveways and foot paths.

What are seamless gutters? |
Seamless gutters are made from rolled coil which
is passed through a rollforming gutter machine and thus

manufacturing company (In- plant) but most commonly it
is done directly at your home (Job-site).

the most popular metal for rainware systems. Limited

Galvanized Steel: Galvanized
steel has more strength than aluminum. It is much heavier
in the equivalence of the aluminum gauge size. Popular
in mountain areas with a lot of snow. Cost lower than
the other metals. Large variety of colors.
Copper: Considered
top of the range metal for guttering systems. Very
durable and with high strength quality. Does not need
to be painted. With time it changes its surface color,
but can also be done technically. Most expensive metal
in comparison with the above metals. Preferred to be
installed by a skillful contractor.

How can I protect the original copper color
from fading? |
There is no permanent application than can be used
to protect the copper from weather conditions. Clear
Coating paint will help but it will be a temporary solution,
also this will depend on what chemical will be used and
how it will be applied. |
