• CAN MY 100 FOOT RUN BE SEAMLESS?

 

• Although it is possible BUT NOT RECOMMENDED some 
  contractors will install gutter in lengths over , the chance 
  for stress related fastener and/or tearing of the gutter 
  due to expansion and contraction caused by changes in 
  temperature.  Aluminum coil manufacturers recommend 
  installing gutters in lengths of no more than 50 feet.  (For 
  every 100 degree change in temperature and for every 
  100 feet of gutter you can expect to see 1” of expansion.)

 

• SHOULD MY GUTTERS BE CAULKED TO THE FASCIA 
  BOARD?

 

• Gutters should never be caulked to the fascia board, top 
  or bottom.  This can result in rotted fascia board and 
  water and/or ice traveling into your home via the air 
  space between the fascia board and the roof sheathing.  
  This can create a path for water to back up resulting in 
  water damage to the interior and the exterior of your 
  home  and/or mold infestation.
