How to Pick the Right Color for Your Gutters

Gutters that complement the other design components of your home can increase its curb appeal and overall value. Fortunately, modern gutters are offered in various styles and a wide range of colors.

In today’s post, your leading provider of heated gutters, Gutter Helmet® of Eastern NY, shares tips on choosing the right color for your gutters.

Restrictions

Make sure to comply with the color restrictions in your neighborhood or your homeowners’ association. Find out if there are specific guidelines in your city or HOA before installing your gutters.

Gutter Material

You’ll need to choose a gutter material first before picking a color, as some gutter materials are not offered in certain colors. Gutter Helmet of Eastern NY offers aluminum replacement gutters, which are available in a wide range of colors to match your home. Our seamless gutters are highly durable and are designed to withstand years of constant element exposure without deteriorating.

Exterior Colors

Brown-toned gutters can match the trim around windows and doors or exterior color. They look best in traditional, rustic and contemporary homes. Dark blue gutters work well with a gray or dark blue roof and exterior. Gray metal gutters complement both homes and commercial establishments. Dark red gutters look good on homes with red brick or stone exteriors.

Maintenance

Consider the maintenance and care required for your chosen gutter product. Stains, damage and debris such as grass clippings, mud and mulch are more visible on lighter-colored gutters.
