Copper Gutters in Deltona, FL, and the Surrounding Areas
Enhance the visual appeal of your residence significantly by installing a copper gutter! These gutters have a metallic hue resembling gold but develop a patina over time, transforming into a dark brown or green shade. The patina adds an antique or vintage aesthetic, elevating the overall appearance. Adding a copper gutter is an excellent way to highlight or complement your house, potentially increasing its market value.
While copper gutters are undeniably beautiful, they may not be suitable for every home. Typically, historic residences and upscale properties shine with the addition of copper gutters. Additionally, houses with exteriors made of brick, stone, stucco, wood, or slate harmonize well with a copper gutter system. Below and to the right are some images showcasing our skilled craftsmanship in installing copper gutters.
What causes copper gutters to develop a patina?
Copper gutters develop a patina due to exposure to the surrounding atmosphere. When copper interacts with carbon dioxide, oxygen, moisture, and pollutants, a reaction occurs, resulting in a tarnished and darker appearance over time. The presence of moisture and oxygen triggers copper oxidation, eventually turning the gutter system brown or black. In environments with higher salt content, the system may exhibit a greenish hue. The patina acts as a protective layer, guarding against further corrosion and rust.
Durability and Style
Copper gutters not only have an appealing appearance but also boast exceptional durability, making them highly resilient in various weather conditions. This durability significantly reduces the likelihood of deterioration. With proper maintenance, copper gutters can maintain an extensive lifespan, surpassing the lifespan of many other gutter materials on the market.
These gutter systems come in different styles and options, such as the classic half-round gutter system and the traditional seamless ‘k-style’ gutter system. The choice between half-round gutters and k-style gutters depends on various factors and individual customer preferences. Furthermore, these systems are available in different sizes, such as 5 inches, 6 inches, or even larger.
