Gutters are probably not at the top of your mind when it comes to distinctive features of your home’s exterior, but, actually, they play a big role in curb appeal. In today’s post, Gutter Helmet® of Northern Minnesota, a leading manufacturer with the best gutter guard reviews, discusses unique gutter designs that can add value to your home in terms of both weather protection and beauty.
Fascia Gutters
These are installed in homes without fascia boards in place. A two-in-one product, fascia gutters perform as both a gutter system and a fascia board. They hide the edges of the rafter tails effectively to prevent pests and water from entering your home.
Victorian Ogee
The Victorian ogee is shallower and wider than other gutter systems, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t get the job done. Thanks to its shape and its size, the Victorian ogee is more effective when installed on smaller houses. It’s recommended for period houses, enhancing the architectural integrity of 19th-Century Victorian homes.
European Gutters
European gutters have the same shape and size as half-round gutters, but are installed through a different process, since they are attached with a visible half-round hanger. The best part about European gutters is the downpipes fastened to them, which are fully round as well. The shape allows more water to flow through without clogging.
