Advantages of K Style Gutters

What Are K-Style Gutters?

K-style gutters get their name from their unique and attractive shape. These gutters are curved out on the top and bottom (unlike traditional gutters, which are round). This signature double curve gives it a side profile similar to the letter “K” (hence the name), and a similar look to interior crown molding.

What Are the Advantages of K-Style Gutters?

There’s a reason that k-style gutters account for nearly 80% of gutters installed in America! Some of the advantages of this gutter style are:

-Stylish appearance

-Strong, durable, and long lasting

-Holds and transports more water than similarly sized traditional round gutters

-Less likely to bend or protrude when impacted

-The seamless finish makes it less prone to leaks and clogs

-Can be produced at the jobsite to ensure perfect fits and longer pieces

-The flat back means it can be attached directly to the fascia

-Can be mounted with hidden hangers (hidden inside the gutter, and won’t work loose over time like the unsightly “spikes” that are traditionally used)

-Works well with a more modern style

Can You Add Leaf Guards to K-Style Gutters?

Absolutely! As with any style of gutters, your K style gutters will work best if they are free from debris. There are a variety of gutter guards that work with K style gutters, including the Shur Flo Gutter Protection Systems that YES uses.
