Hidden Gutters & Built-In Gutters
Hidden Gutters Should Never Be Neglected
Hidden Gutters are becoming more and more popular as newer buildings are opting to have the Gutters Hidden or built-in. More aesthetically pleasing than traditional Gutters, they blend into the structure and become virtually invisible. Since they are built-in, they fall into the ‘out of sight, out of mind’ as most homeowners who have hidden gutters admit to not thinking about them as much as they should.
When Hidden Gutters have issues, they can quickly escalate without proper maintenance.
Hidden Gutter Systems with minor leaks, overflowing Gutters, or blocked drains can pose real damage that can cause rot, weakening of the fascia board, and possible foundation or structural damage. Here at R&R Gutters, we specialize in Hidden Gutter Systems or Built-in Gutter Systems.
