Copper Gutters in Greater Los Angeles

Properly maintained copper gutters can last around 50 to 150 years, longer than any other gutter material on the market. Most other materials last around 10 to 30 years. Copper is also very durable in all weather, so it is less likely to weaken over time, and it often outlasts the roof above it.

Copper reacts with oxygen, moisture, carbon dioxide and pollutants in the air to form a patina. It starts with a gold metallic color, darkens to brown after a few years, and turns green in a saltier atmosphere, which is why coastal homes in Malibu and Santa Monica tend to green sooner. The patina also protects the copper against further corrosion.

Historic and high-end homes wear copper best, along with homes finished in brick, stone, stucco, wood or slate. That makes copper a natural fit for many Spanish, Craftsman and traditional houses across Los Angeles. A Solutionist will tell you honestly if copper suits your home, weighing budget, function and looks.

We form copper seamless gutters on-site in both half-round and K-style, with copper downspouts and hangers to match. Copper is available in 5 inch, 6 inch or even larger sizes, so it can handle the heavy winter storms that a large or steep LA roof sends into it.

Yes. We install gutters on a radius fascia, which means a curved section of the house. Radius installation is the most difficult type of gutter installation and is not offered by most gutter companies. Copper on a curve is a real standout on a Spanish Revival or custom home.

Popular upgrades include rain chains, ornamental conductor heads, embossed gutters and rain barrels, including custom rain barrels. Conductor heads look great at the top of copper downspouts and also hold excess water when a lot of roof drains to one spot. We can add gutter guards to copper systems too.
