Gutters Match Roof
Half round metal gutters with metal roof.
Gutters match roof. In most areas the standard roof and gutter material choices are composite shingle roofing to go with aluminum k style gutters. In recent times exterior designers have been making the decision to match the gutters with the roof. If the gutters run along the trim match the gutters to the trim color so the gutters disappear. Gutters almost always run in front of siding which means they have the best chance of going unnoticed if they are a similar color.
If a gutter runs along the house then match the gutter to the house color. Even though it might feel like the double denim of the nineties might be making a comeback btw it is in this case however there is a very good reason why matchy matchy can work for the exterior of a property. Match the gutters to whatever color is behind them. That way the gutters will not be the first things you notice from the street.
K style refers to the shape of the gutters themselves and the goal is to create a look that resembles interior crown molding. Normally it s ideal to have your gutters blend in subtly and seamlessly with your home s siding. If you choose to match your gutters with your roof or trim remember that your downspouts will likely be up against the color of your home s exterior paint. If you want your downspouts to blend in consider color matching them to your home s exterior.
