Seamless Gutter Installation in Colorado — Done With Your Roof or Siding
We form seamless aluminum, steel and copper gutters on site and install them as part of a roofing or siding project — because the gutter, the fascia behind it and the drip edge above it are one assembly, not three separate jobs. Get them installed together and the seam that usually leaks never exists.
Quick Answer: How We Handle Gutters
Northern Lights Exteriors installs seamless gutters as part of a roofing or siding project, not as standalone gutter-only work. Systems are custom-formed on site in aluminum, steel or copper, in 5-inch, 6-inch or 7-inch profiles, with gutter guards available.
If you are replacing a roof or re-siding the house, this is the moment to do the gutters — not because of a discount, but because it is the only time the fascia and roof edge are open and the whole detail can be built as one.
Why Gutters Belong With the Roof or the Siding
Homeowners think of gutters as an add-on. Water does not. The point where a gutter fails is almost never the gutter — it is the four inches where drip edge, fascia, hangers and the first course of shingles all meet.
The fascia is the mounting surface
Gutters hang off the fascia board. If that fascia is soft, or is about to be replaced during a siding project, hanging new gutters on it first means taking them straight back down. Doing both together is the only sequence that makes sense.
Drip edge has to tuck in
Drip edge belongs behind the gutter and under the roofing membrane. That is a roofing detail and a gutter detail at the same time. Sequenced wrong, water runs behind the gutter and down the fascia instead of into the downspout.
One company owns the seam
When separate companies do the roof and the gutters, that joint belongs to nobody. Our whole-exterior approach means one company owns it, from the drip edge to the last downspout.
Seamless Gutter Materials We Install
Every system is formed on site from a continuous coil, so the only joints in the whole run are at corners and outlets — not every ten feet the way sectional gutters are.
Seamless Aluminum
The most popular choice. Rust-resistant and color-matched to your siding or trim, so the gutter line either disappears into the roofline or becomes a deliberate accent.
Steel
Higher strength, which matters in hail-prone parts of the Front Range where aluminum takes visible dents from a storm that leaves the roof serviceable.
Copper
A premium option for custom homes, and a genuine architectural feature rather than a functional afterthought.
5-Inch, 6-Inch or 7-Inch?
Most older Colorado homes were built with 5-inch K-style gutters. That was adequate for the roofs of the time. Larger roof areas, steeper pitches, metal roofs that shed water fast, and hail- and snowmelt-prone locations often justify going bigger — a 6-inch gutter handles nearly 40% more water volume.

Signs Your Gutters Are Undersized or Failing
Water spilling over the edge in a storm — the system cannot carry what the roof is shedding.
Staining or streaking down the siding — water is running behind or over the gutter instead of through it.
Pooling at the foundation — downspouts are undersized, blocked, or discharging too close to the house.
Ice dams along the roof edge — meltwater is refreezing where drainage is restricted.
Frequent clogging despite cleaning — capacity or pitch is wrong, and guards may be the answer.
Dents after a hailstorm — aluminum shows hail clearly, and it is often documented alongside roof damage in a storm claim.
Gutter Guards
Guards keep leaf litter, pine needles and roof grit out of the system. Adding them during a roofing or gutter project is far simpler than retrofitting later, because the guard, the gutter and the roof edge are set as one system rather than fitted around each other afterwards.
Where We Work
Across the Front Range and Northern Colorado — the Denver metro, Boulder County, Longmont, Loveland, Fort Collins, Greeley and the communities between. Gutters go on as part of a roofing or siding project in any of them.
Seamless Gutter FAQs
Do you install gutters on their own, or only with another project?
We handle gutters as part of a roofing or siding project. That is deliberate rather than a limitation: the gutter, the fascia it hangs on and the drip edge tucked behind it are one assembly, and they only work properly when they are installed together by one crew. If you are already replacing a roof or re-siding the house, that is the right moment to do the gutters.
Why does it matter who installs the gutters?
Because the failure point is almost never the gutter itself – it is the joint. Drip edge, fascia, hangers and the first course of shingles all meet in about four inches. When a gutter company works behind a roofer, that seam belongs to nobody, and it is where callbacks and rotted fascia come from.
What size gutters do Colorado homes need?
Most older homes have 5-inch K-style gutters. Larger roof areas, steep pitches, metal roofs and hail-prone locations often justify a 6-inch or 7-inch system – a 6-inch gutter handles nearly 40% more water volume.
What are seamless gutters?
They are formed on site from a continuous coil, so the only joints in the entire run are at corners and outlets. Sectional gutters are joined every ten feet, and every one of those joints is a future leak.
Do you install gutter guards?
Yes, and adding them during a roofing or gutter project is far simpler than retrofitting later, because the guard, the gutter and the roof edge get set as one system.
Can gutter damage be part of a hail claim?
Hail dents aluminum gutters and downspouts, and that damage is often documented alongside roof damage in a claim. We photograph and document gutters as part of a storm assessment.
