Middlesex County Gutters FAQ

Gutters, like the majority of the different parts of a house, demand occasional maintenance. This translates to cleaning up troughs at least twice every year. If you've observed overflow out of your gutters, they are most likely clogged and have to be cleaned.

There are actually two major different kinds of hangers available nowadays. The first type of hangers is referred to as “spike and ferrule” hangers and require a sizable nail or spike which can be driven over the front of the gutter and into the house. Although very strong, these hangers quite often end up in corrosion and they are at the same time extremely tough to remove. The other style of hangers is identified as “hidden hangers.” These are typically mounting brackets which clip into the gutter and then are mounted on the house using a screw. The main advantage of these hangers is that they can be effortlessly installed and modified. One disadvantage is that they are typically not as tough as “nail and ferrule” hangers.

On most houses, it is highly recommended to have an individual downspout for every 20' – 30' of gutter. In certain circumstances, it is possible to drain 40' of installed rain gutter to at least one downspout, but you should attempt to avoid this whenever possible so as to preserve optimum capabilities and performance of the gutter system.
