SIZING YOUR GUTTERS
The size of the gutter needed can be calculated by determining the average rainfall for the area and adjusting the pitch to accommodate it. Houses in areas with higher rainfall averages will need wider gutters and more downspouts. Most homes will only require a 5 or 6 inch gutter, but homes in rain-prone areas may need up to an 8 inch size.
