The 4.5" fascia style profile creates a distinctive architectural accent that enhances curb appeal while providing superior water capacity (6.8 square inches). Unlike standard gutters that can look utilitarian, the fascia style adds substantial visual impact and perceived property value. The bold profile is increasingly popular for residential and commercial projects where aesthetics matter as much as functionality.

Shipping carriers have length restrictions and the risk of damage during transit increases significantly with longer sections. The 10ft and 20ft gutters can bend, dent, or sustain damage that would compromise their structural integrity and appearance. Our 8ft sections ship safely nationwide while maintaining perfect quality, and for local customers, we offer pickup/delivery of longer sections to ensure they arrive in perfect condition.

Absolutely. Our 0.032" thickness significantly exceeds the 0.019" building code minimum, providing superior durability, wind resistance, and longevity. Thinner aluminum can dent easily, lose shape over time, and may not withstand severe weather conditions. Professional contractors prefer the 0.032" thickness because it maintains structural integrity, resists damage during installation, and provides decades of reliable performance.

With 25+ designer colors available, you can perfectly match any exterior design. Popular choices include White for traditional homes, Black for modern aesthetics, and various Browns for natural or rustic styles. Consider your roof color, siding, and trim when selecting. Our UV-resistant powder coating ensures long-lasting color performance. Contact us for color samples or custom matching services for specific project requirements.

For a complete system, you'll need fascia hangers (every 24"), end caps, outlet fittings, downspouts (2"x3" or 3"x4"), elbows, and downspout brackets. All accessories are available in matching colors. We recommend one downspout per 20-30 feet of gutter, and our system can handle up to 1,000 square feet of roof area per downspout. Contact us for a complete accessory package quote based on your project specifications.

While DIY installation is possible with proper tools and safety equipment, professional installation is recommended for safety, warranty compliance, and optimal performance. Gutter installation requires working at height, proper slope calculations, and knowledge of building codes. Professional contractors have the experience, tools, and insurance for safe installation. Improper installation can void warranties and create water damage issues.

Measure the linear feet of all roof edges where gutters will be installed. Add 10% for waste and cuts. A typical single-story home needs 100-150 linear feet, while two-story homes may require 200-300 linear feet. Choose 8ft sections for nationwide shipping, or 10ft/20ft sections for local projects to minimize seams. Our team can help calculate exact quantities and recommend the best length combination for your specific project.

Local pickup is available at our Damascus, OR showroom (19759 SE Sunnyside Rd) typically within 2-4 days of ordering. Local delivery is available within our service area for an additional fee.
