Built for Runoff Control and Long-Term Performance

Many homes in the area experience a combination of elevation changes, seasonal runoff, and shifting weather patterns that can quickly expose weaknesses in older gutter systems. When water isn’t directed efficiently, it can linger near the foundation, oversaturate soil, and place unnecessary stress on exterior components.

A properly installed seamless aluminum eavestrough system manages water before it becomes a problem. Our installations focus on precise slope, secure fastening, and intentional downspout placement to maintain steady performance during heavy rainfall and spring snowmelt.

  • Directs water safely away from foundations, walkways, and landscaped areas
  • Preserves fascia and roof edges by limiting prolonged moisture exposure
  • Helps prevent overflow and pooling during intense rain events
  • Supports better winter performance through freeze–thaw cycles

Below, you’ll find details on our 5" and 6" seamless eavestrough options, along with soffit and fascia solutions designed to keep your exterior protected, visually balanced, and reliable year after year.

Selecting the Proper Gutter Capacity for Reliable Drainage

Not every roof sheds water the same way. Roof pitch, surface area, and how water travels across the structure all play a role in determining which system performs best. That’s why each project is evaluated before recommending a 5" or 6" seamless aluminum eavestrough system.

Properties with larger roof spans, steeper slopes, or concentrated runoff points often benefit from increased capacity. Choosing the correct size helps ensure water is carried away efficiently, even during heavy rainfall or rapid snowmelt.

  • 5" seamless gutters ideal for standard rooflines and typical drainage demands
  • 6" seamless gutters designed for larger roof areas and higher water volume
  • On-site formed aluminum for a smooth, continuous appearance
  • Hidden hanger systems that improve strength while keeping fasteners concealed
  • Precision-cut corners that reduce stress points and extend system life
  • Colour-matched finishes that blend naturally with soffit, fascia, and siding

If your current setup shows signs of overflow, sagging, or visible wear, upgrading to a properly sized seamless aluminum eavestrough can significantly improve long-term performance and curb appeal.

The Supporting Components That Keep Your Exterior Working Properly

A dependable eavestrough system relies on more than the gutter itself. When soffit or fascia panels are worn, poorly vented, or loosely installed, airflow can be restricted, moisture can build up, and fastening points may weaken over time. These issues often reduce the overall effectiveness of the exterior system.

We install vented aluminum soffit and custom-formed fascia that support proper airflow, provide solid mounting surfaces for eavestroughs, and create a clean, uniform transition between exterior materials. When installed correctly, these components help everything work together as intended.

  • Vented soffit panels that promote consistent airflow and reduce moisture buildup
  • Durable aluminum fascia formed on-site for a precise, finished appearance
  • Colour-matched finishes that blend naturally with siding and trim
  • Clean integration with new or existing eavestrough systems

If existing soffit or fascia shows signs of sagging, peeling, or deterioration, addressing these components during an eavestrough upgrade helps improve system stability and delivers a cleaner, more consistent exterior finish.

Our Step-by-Step Approach to Reliable Water Control

A dependable eavestrough system begins with careful planning and precise installation. Our team follows a structured process that prioritizes controlled water flow, secure attachment, and long-term performance — not rushed work or shortcuts.

From the initial evaluation to final adjustments, each stage is handled methodically to ensure consistent performance through heavy rainfall, spring snowmelt, and seasonal temperature shifts.

  1. Careful removal of existing materials: Old eavestroughs and hardware are taken down cleanly to avoid damage to fascia or siding.
  2. Evaluation of attachment surfaces: Mounting areas are checked for alignment issues, moisture exposure, or previous wear.
  3. Planned slope and water direction: Each run is measured to guide water efficiently toward downspouts and away from the structure.
  4. On-site forming of seamless aluminum: Gutters are shaped on location to reduce joints and create a smooth, continuous finish.
  5. Hidden hanger fastening: Secure fasteners are installed to support weight while maintaining a clean appearance.
  6. Accurate corner and outlet placement: Connections are measured and cut precisely to promote proper drainage and reduce stress points.
  7. Final inspection and cleanup: Alignment, flow, and overall appearance are reviewed before leaving the property tidy.

The result is a custom-fit eavestrough system built for dependable performance, ready to accommodate optional additions like gutter guards, and designed to blend naturally with the rest of the exterior.

Reducing Debris Buildup Without Changing Exterior Appearance

When leaves, needles, and roof granules begin collecting inside gutters, water flow can quickly become restricted. A properly designed protection system helps keep drainage paths clear, reducing overflow and limiting the need for frequent cleaning. Alu-Rex gutter protection installs inside the eavestrough, allowing water to move freely while minimizing material buildup.

Compatible with both 5" and 6" seamless aluminum systems, this option integrates cleanly without altering the appearance of the gutter or roof edge. It’s well suited for homeowners who want improved performance without bulky covers or visible surface additions.

  • Limits debris accumulation from leaves, needles, and roofing material
  • Maintains consistent water flow during heavy rain and snowmelt
  • Installs inside the gutter for a discreet, low-profile finish
  • Helps reduce ice-related issues caused by trapped debris
  • Low-maintenance design suited for long-term use

Adding Alu-Rex protection during an eavestrough installation can help extend system lifespan, improve drainage reliability, and reduce seasonal upkeep — all while keeping the exterior clean and uniform.

Common Warning Signs of Drainage Performance Issues

Drainage problems often develop gradually rather than all at once. Small changes in water flow or system alignment can go unnoticed until moisture begins affecting areas it shouldn’t. Identifying these early indicators helps prevent unnecessary wear to exterior materials and surrounding ground surfaces.

  • Overflow during moderate rainfall even when debris buildup appears minimal
  • Visible corrosion or deterioration at seams, corners, or fastening points
  • Sections pulling away or sagging between supports
  • Downspouts releasing water too close to walkways or foundation areas
  • Inconsistent water movement caused by improper slope or settling
  • Persistent damp areas near the structure after rain or snowmelt

When these conditions start to appear, upgrading to a properly sized 5" or 6" seamless aluminum eavestrough system can help restore consistent drainage and reduce long-term moisture concerns.

Questions Homeowners Ask About Eavestrough Systems

Why does proper eavestrough installation matter?

A properly installed eavestrough system helps control rainwater and snowmelt by directing it away from walkways, landscaping, and the base of the home. When drainage isn’t managed correctly, water can collect in unwanted areas and contribute to long-term exterior wear.

Which type of eavestrough system performs best?

Most homeowners choose seamless aluminum eavestroughs because they offer reliable performance through changing weather conditions. These systems are formed on site and secured using hidden hangers for added strength and a clean appearance.

  • 5" or 6" seamless systems selected based on roof size and water volume
  • Continuous runs that reduce potential leak points
  • Colour-matched downspouts for a uniform, finished look

What are common signs that gutters need replacing?

Common indicators include overflow during rainfall, sagging sections, visible corrosion, and water collecting too close to the structure. These signs suggest the system may no longer be directing water effectively.

Can gutter protection be installed at the same time?

Yes. Many homeowners choose to add Alu-Rex gutter protection during installation. This system installs inside the eavestrough and helps reduce debris buildup while allowing water to flow freely, minimizing seasonal maintenance.
