My house is a two story. The second story walls are covered in shingles on front and back sides, and the second story front/rear walls are pretty steep (only drops in about 12 inches).
I replaced siding and trim boards on the first floor and removed the gutters. The original gutters were 6″ They need to be at least that wide because of the distance of the edge of the shingle to the facer boards.
I’ve looked at the local home improvement stores, and they only carry 5″ gutters in aluminum. They can order 6″ gutters in aluminum with no problem, but I have a high minimum order with plastic and it’s only sold in increments of 100 ft.
Has anybody got any thoughts on going with plastic versus aluminum guttering? Any thoughts were I can find plastic 6″ without getting saddled with minimum buys?
Thanks,
Mike
