TOPIC: I Have An Existing Metal Roof and Have A Question

Adding gutters to a metal roof

Return to I Have An Existing Metal Roof and Have A Question

Return to Forum

We have a home in Wilmington North Carolina with a metal roof that is causing many water run off issues in multiple areas. I would like to know what are the best style of gutters to use and optimum way to attach. Also I'd like options for gutter screens or sponge for debri collection. Are there any major factors with installation when dealing with the metal overhang from the fascia. I can provide a photo if needed.

Thank You

Michael DeVito

Picture does help but just about any gutter can be adapted to work with the proper hanger.

Michael,

Gutter should be able to be screwed into the fascia board here and adapted to work with the home/roof.

Unless you want a half round style, a K-Style should look and work fine here.

In terms of the screen style, the only one that I know of that works well and can be adapted to work well with a metal roof is a system made by RainDrop.
