The Advantages Of Box Gutters
Box gutters are a popular choice for historical homes, commercial buildings, and multifamily housing in Springfield. Unlike the more common hanging gutters, box gutters are built into the bottom of a building’s roofline or the bottom of the roof overhang. This allows box gutters to seamlessly blend into your Springfield home’s design, especially when you need a gutter between two roofs or prefer modern box style gutters for a sleek look.
Box gutters provide protection in trickier places and are concealed as part of the roof. Property owners who don’t want to alter the appearance of their roof often install box gutters because they are nearly indiscernible from the rest of the roof, as opposed to K-style gutters, which have a “hanging” appearance. For those considering concealed gutters or built-in gutters, box guttering offers an elegant solution that maintains the aesthetic integrity of your property.
An advantage of box gutters is a wider gutter opening that allows for easier cleaning and more capacity. Further, the wide bottom-of-box gutters allows you to install larger downspouts with greater capacity and flow. This makes box rain gutters particularly effective for areas requiring high water management, such as roof gutter boxes on modern square gutters.
The modern look of box gutters suits contemporary homes and commercial buildings and blends in better with the design and architecture. The box-style gutter can also be a more harmonious fit for nontraditional home designs. Modern box gutters or square gutters can complement modern residential gutter designs seamlessly.

With flat roofs, larger complex roofs, parapet walls, and other architectural building features, rainwater does not always drain out directly to the external perimeter of the roof. In these instances, box gutters are the only viable option for your Springfield home.
Box rain gutters are also the ideal choice for small spaces between two surfaces of equal height or areas where one surface sits slightly above the other—their shape and volume capacity allows them to fit seamlessly just about anywhere. This is particularly useful for drain boxes for gutters or trough gutters where space is limited.
If your roof does not have a traditional sloped design, you may need to consider installing a box gutter system. If you are interested in box gutters, request a quote from GlennStone today.
