When looking for a gutter system for a larger home or commercial building, 6” gutters are the way to go. 6” gutters are perfect for areas of your roof where lower gutters have upper gutters draining into them or where there are long runs or valleys where water can travel at great speeds and overflow more easily. If the design of the project will not allow for the addition of extra downspouts to drain the water away from the home’s foundation faster and in a substantial volume, larger gutters are the best and safest solution.

Oversized gutters are only 1 inch bigger than standard gutters, but that small difference makes a big impact!
One inch might not seem like much but when it is one inch of water – it is a lot more gutter than you think! Larger gutters move more water. Oversized six-inch gutters can redirect more than 35% of the water volume than a standard seamless 5” gutter system can.
The purpose of gutter downspouts is to bring the rainwater from your gutter system to the ground level and direct it away from the base of your house. Getting the water out of the gutter and downspout system is critical to the health of your office buildings, commercial building or large private home. Having water pool at the base of your home or building can destroy foundations, leak inside or create dangerous ice patches. Having a larger oversized gutters & downspout and proper drainage for your project is necessary to avoid all of these possible and costly problems.
5” seamless gutters fit the needs of most residential homes in Westchester County. When looking for a gutter system for a larger home or commercial building, 6” oversized gutters are the way to go.
Oversized gutters are paired with oversized downspouts and can handle; more water, more debris, and more runoff. Oversized gutters are also well suited for integration into standard gutter systems, in areas of your roof where lower gutters have upper gutters draining into them; or where there are long runs where water can travel at great speeds and overflow easily.
When my team installs 6” gutters, we pair them with an equally efficient oversized downspout to make sure the system works at peak performance year round. At George’s Seamless Gutters, we offer oversized gutters and downspouts in aluminum and copper.

Bigger Gutters are Not Always Better
The size of the gutters your home needs will depend greatly on where you live, your house type, and your roof runs. The size, angle of your roof slope, etc., have a lot to do with how much water your roof puts off and, in turn, how much water your gutters need to manage. Large gutters also known as oversized gutters, such as 6″, 7″, or even 8″ gutters, can carry a lot more water than standard 5 in gutters; how much? To give you some idea, even though a 6″ gutter is only one inch bigger than a standard 5″ gutter, it will handle up to 40% more water add to this equation, the bigger downspouts that go with these gutters that can let more debris pass through them, making them less likely to get clogged and the math is simple. But all of this said, not all homes; in fact, many homes need oversized gutters. So, no bigger gutters are always better.
