6-inch gutters on large estate home

Large Estates & Colonials

For fine homes with extensive rooflines, complex geometry, and multiple valleys that concentrate water runoff. The 6-inch system ensures zero overflow even during New Jersey's most severe storms.

  • Extended runs without additional downspouts
  • Handles valley concentration points
  • Visually proportional on large facades
6-inch gutters on steep-roof home

Steep-Pitch & High-Volume Roofs

Steep roofs concentrate water dramatically faster than shallow pitches. A 6-inch gutter keeps pace, preventing the overflow that erodes landscaping, stains siding, and damages foundations over time.

  • Designed for pitches above 8:12
  • Prevents foundation erosion
  • Eliminates siding staining
