Why are gutters important?
Gutters clogged with everything from leaves to twigs can cause expensive and
dangerous home repair nightmares. Rainwater washing over your gutters can
accumulate in pools around walls and foundations. This can result in leaky
and cracked foundations or flooded basements. No Worry Gutters prevent
leaves, twigs, acorns, or other debris from collecting in your gutters
allowing the water to run smoothly through the gutter and away from your
home.
No Worry Gutters also keep water from seeping down your home's exterior and
in winter they help prevent ice buildups on roofs.

What are some
reasons to replace my gutters?
1. Clogged or leaky gutters are one of the biggest causes of basement leaks,
mold and other foundation problems. Also, standing water in gutters is one
of the common places mosquitoes breed.
2. Old worn-out gutters are unappealing and reduce the value of your
property.
3. Your old gutters may have become bent or dented or may be pulling away
from your home in a manner that they cannot be reattached or reworked.
4. Your old seamed gutters may have begun to pull apart or have leaks and
you would like to replace them.
5. You want to change the color of your gutters.
6. The drainage of your current guttering is not sufficient so you want to
install a larger size gutter and downspout system. Most homes and commercial
properties have 5 inch gutters with 2x3 downspouts, but we can install 6
inch gutters with 3x4 downspouts when necessary.

How can
I tell if my gutters aren't draining properly?
If during a rainfall, you can hear the water slapping the ground, pouring
over the sides of the gutter, there may be a blockage or the gutter itself
may not be aligned evenly. If you notice paint peeling or corroded wood, the
gutter is most likely clogged and is causing the water to overflow and run
down the back of gutter along the exterior walls of the house. If you notice
mold or if you see puddles of water forming around the outside of your house
it's a sure sign that there are drainage problems.
What are the
different types of gutters available?
All gutters are either sectional or seamless. They come in various
materials, sizes and colors. See our How They
Compare page for more details.
Do gutters come in
various shapes and sizes?
Yes. Most gutters come in several shapes and sizes called profiles. These
include U-shape as well as K-shape configurations. In K-shape configurations
the ogee-shaped front looks like the letter K allowing the system to have
more of a crown molding look rather than a boxy appearance. No Worry Gutters
are done in both 5" and 6" K-shaped style gutter system. See our
How They Work page for more details.
Why should I replace my gutters if there is nothing wrong with them?
Isn�t it easier and cheaper to just cover them up to prevent them from
clogging?
Your conventional gutter was designed to be cleaned regularly. Even the best
add-on gutter covers often compromise the integrity of the roof. At best
they allow longer periods between cleanings, and when cleaning is necessary,
they must often be uninstalled to give access to the trough. In the long
run, your best bet is to choose a maintenance-free gutter system like No
Worry Gutters. You will never have to clean or replace your gutters again.
We guarantee it!
Can I install gutters on my
own?
Certainly, if you are a regular do-it-yourselfer and are comfortable on a
ladder, you can install sectional gutters, but you'll need a qualified
professional to install seamless gutters.
How does No Worry Gutters compare to screens and other products on the
market?
Screens and other products that feature vertical slots, louvers or other
openings can allow leaves and debris to migrate downward and clog water
channels. So, leaves and debris may stay out of your gutters, but so may the
rainwater! No Worry Gutters have no vertical openings and its nose-forward
design prevents leaves and debris from entering your gutter system. That
means that gravity works for you, not against you. The nose-forward position
of No Worry Gutters is designed so that the leaves and debris that moves
down the roof fall harmlessly over the extended nose and straight down to
the ground below. The physics of simple water surface tension causes water
to flow around the nose-forward cover design and back into your gutters. See
our How They Compare page for more
details.
How will No Worry Gutters affect the look of my home? What colors are
available?
No Worry Gutters are designed to blend into the natural architecture of your
home. Sixteen (16) colors are available so that an installed system becomes
almost invisible. Visit the
Gutter Colors page to see what colors you have to choose from. The
gutter top can be matched to the color of your roof, and the gutter trough
can be matched to the color of your trim. No Worry Gutters' "K" style also
allows the system to have more of a crown molding appearance than the boxy
look of some gutters.
What does "limited
lifetime warranty" mean?
Limited lifetime warranty means that your product will be free of defects
for the life of the product. This does not mean the product will last your
lifetime. If you move or sell your house, the gutter warranty will no longer
be applicable to the new home owners.
