The Rain Leak Pro

There are lots of different gutter materials to choose from, including steel, aluminum, vinyl, copper, even wood, and many types of gutters. Another alternative well worth considering is the installation of seamless metal gutters. Seamless gutters must be fabricated on-site by a professional contractor, so there's no do-it-yourself savings to be had.

But the improved performance of the entire gutter system is worth the additional investment. The seamless gutter system also called a continuous gutter is a little misleading in its name, since there actually are seams in the system. These occur only at the corners, however, and instead of slip fittings, these joints are typically riveted and sealed for stability and leak resistance.
