6 inch gutters
We recommend 6 inch over 5 inch. The Bonner Springs weather station's 1991 to 2020 normal is 40.53 inches of precipitation a year, and the wider trough gives a big roof plane somewhere to put it.
Detached houses mean long roof edges
About 77 percent of homes here are single-family detached houses, and the median one was built in 1979. That adds up to a lot of roof edge: a front run, a back run, the garage, often a porch or a bump-out. Every run is its own measurement, and a good installation starts by taking all of them.
A house from the late 1970s was usually hung with the sectional gutters of its day. When an addition goes on, or a bare eave gets its first system, there is no reason to match old seams. We form one continuous piece for the new edge and hang it with a fall toward the downspout.
No stock lengths
Seamless gutters in Bonner Springs are rolled to the house, never cut down from stock lengths.
A roll forming machine sits in the driveway and turns coil into one run for each roof edge. Joints land only at corners and downspout outlets, so there are fewer places for water to find its way out. That is the practical case for seamless gutter services in Bonner Springs, KS on a house with long, plain eaves.
What we hang on a Bonner Springs house
Seamless gutter installation in Bonner Springs, KS comes down to specs more than brand names. Here is what the crew recommends and why.
3x4 downspouts
Recommended over 2x3, so a hard downpour drains out of the gutter instead of backing up at the outlet.
.032 gauge aluminum
The stock we form is .032 gauge, rolled fresh for your house.
Hidden hangers
Brackets sit inside the gutter, so the face stays clean and nothing is nailed through it.
How an install day runs
At the estimate: Measure each edge
We walk the house and note every roof edge, every corner and each spot a downspout can run.
In the driveway: Roll the gutter
The machine forms each run to length while the crew prepares the eaves.
On the roof edge: Hang and pitch
Hidden hangers go in and each run gets a fall toward its outlet.
At the ground: Send water away
Downspouts finish where water can leave the house. The city's 100-year floodplain follows the Kansas River, Wolf Creek and Spring Creek, so near those corridors we think hard about where the water ends up.
Where a new system fits here
Most calls land in one of three places.
- 01
Additions and new edges
A new room or garage adds roof edge with no gutter on it at all. Building in a mapped floodplain takes city review and a floodplain permit, so settle that first and call us once the roof is up.
- 02
Taking off an old run
If the old gutter is coming down, gutter replacement in Bonner Springs covers the teardown and the new install as one job.
- 03
Protection from day one
A new gutter is the easiest time to add a guard. See gutter guards in Bonner Springs for the systems we fit.

Gutter installation questions in Bonner Springs
Is a 5 inch gutter enough for my house?
For most roofs we recommend stepping up to 6 inch gutters with 3x4 downspouts. The larger size moves more water off a long roof plane when a storm lets go. If you are comparing bids, ask which size each one covers.
What should I ask a seamless gutter company in Bonner Springs, KS before it installs?
Ask whether the gutter is formed on site to the length of each roof edge, what gauge the aluminum is and where the hangers sit. Among seamless gutter installation companies in Bonner Springs, KS, that is the question that separates a custom run from cut stock. Ours is formed in the driveway from .032 gauge aluminum with hangers hidden inside the trough.
Do you install on additions and new construction?
Yes. We hang seamless gutters on new construction and additions as well as full systems on existing houses. Tell us which roof edges are new when you call and we will measure them at the estimate.
