COPPER GUTTERS
Ironclad Gutter Co. delivers exceptional reliability and precision. We make it easy for our clients to relax while expecting outstanding results, both aesthetically and functionally.
The Copper Advantage
Copper is the premium material for seamless gutters. It comes with a high price tag but also some distinct advantages over aluminum and steel.
​
-
Copper gutters are extremely resistant to the elements - copper doesn't corrode and is hostile to organic life, meaning you don't have to worry about mold, algae, moss, etc. You can expect your well-maintained copper gutters to last 50+ years.
-
Copper gutters that are left to oxidize in the elements develop an attractive patina, known as verdigris, as seen in the picture below. The Statue of Liberty is an iconic example of weathered copper.
Copper Gutter Facts
A full house installation of copper gutters typically costs ~3x more in total than aluminum. Not only are the materials significantly more costly but the labor is more costly as well.
​
-
Copper coil and components cost ~6-8X more than aluminum.
-
Copper needs to be handled more carefully during installation, to avoid tarnishing and damaging the more costly materials.
​
The Bottom Line
Copper gutters are a great way to add old-world elegance and timelessness to your home. Alternatively, when kept shiny (using a transparent sealer coat) they can add a striking visual pop of metallic color to modern styles of homes.
