Pros and Cons of aluminium gutters
Pros:
Durability
Aluminium gutters boast superior durability and unprecedented longevity through the combination of aluminium's strength and an additional protective oxide layer. Further enhanced with a range of coat technology for added protection, these gutters are designed to last even longer.
Lightweight
Compared to galvanised steel or cast iron gutters, aluminium gutters are lightweight and easy to install. They don't impose heavy pressure on the fascia or brackets, which allows them to remain firmly attached for a prolonged period.
Aluminium gutters are perfect for any property because they provide maximum strength without extra weight. They weigh much less than cast iron and are almost as strong as galvanised steel, achieving a delicate balance of performance and stability on your fascia boards.
Eco-friendly
Aluminium building products are the perfect sustainable choice for construction projects, as they have an impressively low carbon footprint and can be recycled endlessly.

Low maintenance
Aluminium gutters only require occasional cleaning and checking to ensure they remain free of clogs or obstructions when installed properly.
Cons:
Expensive
Aluminium gutters initially cost more than plastic gutters, but the cost is offset by aluminium's longevity. Are aluminium gutters expensive in the long run? Not really. The gutters can last up to five decades, meaning you'll likely only need to replace your aluminium gutters only once in a lifetime.
