Not all gutters are created equal. The right size depends on your roof pitch, drainage area, and rainfall intensity.

 

Here’s a quick guide:

• 5-inch gutters: Standard for most residential homes.

• 6-inch gutters: Ideal for steep or large roofs that handle heavy rain.

• Oversized downspouts: Recommended for homes with frequent clogs or leaf debris.

 

Installing the wrong size can lead to overflowing water, fascia damage, and soil erosion. That’s why ClearFlow technicians measure every home carefully before recommending a system.
