Posted on Google5 Inch Gutters Questions, Answered
On many homes, yes. A 5 inch gutter handles average rainfall well when runs are under 40 feet with one downspout, longer runs have two or more, and the gutter does not overflow in normal rain. If you watch it spill over in an ordinary storm, it is time to talk about 6 inch.
Asphalt shingle roofs with a proper drip edge are the classic fit. 5 inch gutters should not be used to catch runoff from upper roofs that have their own gutters, because the combined flow overwhelms them. Homes with lower roofs often end up with 5 inch on some runs and 6 inch on others.
The standard is a 2 by 3 inch downspout. Where more roof area feeds a run, a 5 inch gutter can pair with a 3 by 4 inch downspout, which moves water out faster without changing the gutter itself. The right pairing is chosen from the roof area during the estimate.
Cost and fit. The 5 inch gutter is cost-effective and remains a solid choice where it can handle the rainfall and the roof meets the sizing guidelines. If your runs and downspouts fall within those limits, there is no need to pay for capacity you will not use.
Yes. 5 inch K-style gutters are formed on site from coil, so each run is one continuous piece cut to the length of your roofline. That means no factory seams in the middle of a run to split after years of hot summers and wet winters.
Yes. BroGuard installs over existing gutters, including standard 5 inch runs, as long as they are in good condition. Adding a guard to a 5 inch system makes sense under oaks, because a smaller trough has less room to spare once debris starts collecting.
