Recent Project Spotlight: 6” K-Style White Gutters with Shurflow Covers in Cortlandt Manor, NY
We recently completed a gutter installation in Cortlandt Manor, NY, featuring 6” K-style white gutters equipped with Shurflow gutter covers and 3×4 leaders. This combination offers high capacity, durability, and exceptional protection against debris buildup, making it ideal for homes with complex rooflines and large roofs.
Adding a gutter guard system, like Shurflow, to this project means the homeowners won’t have to worry about frequent clogs or backups caused by leaves and debris. Gutter guards are an excellent investment for maintaining clear, functional gutters with less need for maintenance. They prevent water overflow and help avoid potential damage to foundations, siding, and landscaping caused by clogged gutters.
We’ve written an in-depth guide to choosing the best gutter guards for Westchester homeowners, highlighting the most effective options for our area’s climate and specific gutter needs.
Types of Gutter Guards We Offer
With many options available, it’s important to select the right gutter guard system for your property. Here are some of the types we install:
- Gutter Screens: These affordable mesh screens block leaves and larger debris, keeping gutters clear while allowing water to flow through.
- Surface Tension Guards: Using the principle of surface tension, these guards direct water into the gutter while keeping debris out, ideal for Westchester’s heavy rains.
- Fine Mesh Guards: Made of stainless steel or aluminum, these guards block even the smallest debris, offering a comprehensive solution for gutter maintenance.
- Copper Gutter Guards: For homes with copper gutter systems, these guards prevent clogging without compromising the integrity of copper materials, ensuring a cohesive look and long-lasting performance.
The 6” K-style gutter is oversized for added water-carrying capacity, crucial for homes in Westchester with larger or complex rooflines. For homes where multiple roof planes converge, large volumes of water can create overflow problems if gutters are undersized. By choosing an oversized gutter system with 3×4 downspouts, we provide the capacity needed to handle heavy rainfall efficiently, protecting the foundation and landscaping from water damage.
