5 Questions to Ask When Buying New Gutters
When investing in new gutters, it’s crucial to ask the right questions to ensure you’re making an informed decision. At Pawcatuck Roofing Company, we’ve been assisting homeowners in Eastern Connecticut and Western Rhode Island with gutter installation, gutter repair, and gutter replacement for decades. Here are five essential questions to consider when purchasing new gutters.
1. What Gutter Material and Style Are Best for My Home?
Gutters are available in materials like aluminum, copper, vinyl, and galvanized steel, each offering distinct advantages in durability, cost, and maintenance. Styles such as K-style and half-round also vary in performance and appearance. Our experienced gutter contractors will help you determine the best fit for your home, whether you’re looking to install gutters for the first time or replace gutters that are outdated.
2. Are Seamless Gutters a Better Option Than Sectional Gutters?
Seamless gutters are custom-cut to fit your home perfectly, reducing the risk of leaks and clogs that often occur at the seams of sectional options. They offer a clean, modern look and typically require less maintenance. If you’re upgrading to new gutters, seamless may be the better long-term investment.
3. How Do You Ensure Proper Gutter Installation?
Proper gutter installation ensures that your new gutters work effectively during heavy rain and protect your home’s foundation. At Pawcatuck Roofing Company, we use top-quality materials and secure fasteners to make sure your gutters are installed to last. Our trained team follows industry best practices for long-term performance and safety.
4. What Maintenance Will My New Gutters Require?
All gutters need some level of maintenance, but certain materials and designs require more than others. We’ll provide you with maintenance tips and recommend options such as gutter guards to reduce cleaning. Whether it’s minor upkeep or full gutter repair and replacement, we’re here to help you get the most out of your new gutters.
5. What Warranties and Support Do You Provide?
We offer warranties on both materials and labor to give you peace of mind. Our commitment doesn’t stop after the installation — you can count on us for ongoing support, including any necessary gutter repair, inspections, or adjustments in the future.
