So, what exactly are seamless gutters? Rain gutters are installed on-site with the help of gutter equipment placed on a service vehicle. The answer is simple: there are no seams. Before being put in a single smooth sweep, each one is properly cut.

Seamless Gutters VS. DIY Gutters
Do-it-yourself gutters refer to prefabricated gutter sections in this context. To create seamless gutters, a professional gutter machine is necessary. DIY gutters do not have the same seams or modular construction as sectional gutters.
There are four significant differences between seamless gutters and DIY gutters:
- Installation
- Security And Strength
- Repairability
- Cost

Installing A Gutter System
The most noticeable difference is in the setup. Rolling a metal sheet through gutter-forming equipment is the on-site procedure for installing seamless gutters. Following that, the installer will run it along the home to confirm its safety.
Sectional gutter installation is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process. Sectional gutters made of vinyl or plastic are extremely common. These materials are not as commonly available as seamless gutters because they cannot be molded into a roll. Because each component must be mitered and sealed, a sectional gutter system takes substantially longer to install.
Security And Strengths
Because miters weaken the connections, seamless gutters are typically the strongest option. The chance of a gutter system leaking increases in direct proportion to the number of seams. Sectional gutters are constructed of weaker materials than seamless gutters, making them more prone to damage.
Repairability
Typically, while fixing a seamless system, the entire system must be replaced. This is typical when mending anything. If the gutter system ever separates from the house, it can be repaired.
Cost Comparison
Sectional gutters appear to be less expensive than seamless gutter installation on the surface. However, the cost of installing sectional gutters is roughly equivalent due to the additional materials, caulking, and labor required. Furthermore, despite their lower longevity compared to seamless gutters, sectional gutters are commonly installed by homeowners. As a result, price rises in the future are possible.

Size Of Seamless Aluminum Gutters
A 5-inch seamless aluminum gutter is widely used in some areas of the country however, 6-inch gutters and 7-inch gutters are becoming increasingly popular. Seamless aluminum gutters also come in even larger sizes, which are typically industrial or commercial-style gutters.
The differences between 5-inch, 6-inch, and 7-inch gutters are their size, and the capacity of water they can hold. In cases where you often experience heavy rainfall and/or rainwater is continually overshooting your gutter system, a 6” gutter or 7″ gutter system may be the best for your home.
In addition to climate; the roofline, surface area, and pitch of your roof are important factors in determining if you should install a 5-inch, 6-inch, or 7-inch gutter system. Interchanging two different sizes of gutter within the same gutter system can also be a cost-effective solution for areas of your home needing higher capacity.
