Gutters are the open part of the metal and plastic drainage system. Thanks to them, the water flows from the roof's surface and drains through the pipes into the storm drain or the ground away from the foundation. They are made of plastic, steel, copper, and aluminum. Plastic gutters in New Jersey occupy more than 80% of the market. The price of plastic New Jersey gutters is two or more times lower than other options, while durability, strength, and functionality are inferior to metal. In this article, we want to show you the four most beautiful rain gutters you should know about.

Box-Style Gutters

The easiest way to get away from the traditional curved shape of the gutter is to use innovative box-style gutters. Box-style gutters are often made of the same materials as the classic gutters — PVC plastic and polymer-coated galvanized steel.

Box-style gutter in New Jersey fits perfectly into modern cottages' design and has a higher flow capacity than traditional gutters with a curved profile. Advantages of box-style gutters:

     - Professional installation

     - High water volume capacity

     - Heavy-duty construction 

     - Enhanced durability

If necessary, architects and designers can use the electronic drawings of box-style gutters in digital CAD format. They can be included in the overall design of the cottage. This will help you evaluate the structure's elegance even before the gutter installation is completed.

Vinyl Gutters

Connoisseurs of the traditional design of private houses, who prefer to use, for example, classic brick facades and natural terracotta tiles, can pay attention to the collection of vinyl gutters. They resemble the familiar traditional PVC plastic gutters and stand out against other gutters with gentle modern coloring and design. Advantages of vinyl gutters:

     - Seamed DIY installation

     - 20-year lifespan

     - Affordable price

     - Variety of available colors

Vinyl gutters in NJ are distinguished by durability, strength, resistance to mechanical stress, and preservation of color saturation for a long time.

European-Style Gutters

European-style gutters are half-round systems opposite to box-style gutters. The European-style gutter bead turns to the outside and is fastened into place by a half-round hanger. Advantages of European-style gutters:

    - Seamed professional installation

     - 30-year lifespan

     - Moderate durability

     - High rainfall capacity volumes

Construction house developers in NJ choose European-style gutters to add more significance to their houses for sale and to improve their marketability. By the way, European-style gutters are less welcoming to birds, squirrels, mice, and even raccoons.

Seamless Gutters  

Finally, the most non-standard and beautiful version of gutters is seamless gutters. This option is suitable for modern, high-tech, and minimalist cottages. Thanks to the hidden gutter installation of gutters and pipes, the drainage system is almost not visible when visually inspecting the facade of the building.

The seamless gutters are mounted in one plane with a layer of facade insulation without the traditional eaves. The rectangular shape of seamless gutters and pipes provides a high capacity and relatively uncomplicated gutter installation in New Jersey.

An important advantage of seamless gutters is the wide choice of materials. You can buy not only PVC plastic and polymer-coated steel gutters but also a variant of the system with galvanized steel gutters. Advantages of seamless gutters:

     - Professional installation

     - Wider variety of color options

     - Minimum leakage

     - Smooth and uniform appearance

Thanks to a specially designed headboard bracket, the profile of the seamless gutters is easy to cover with a special decorative strip.

Conclusion

People traditionally prefer inexpensive and reliable plastic gutters or more solid steel gutters combined or contrasting with the facade finish and roof cover. If the owners desire to formalize the house non-standard, it makes sense to use gutters with a distinctive design. Now you know the 4 most beautiful rain gutters in New Jersey that may fit your house design.
