Seamless gutters, cut to length at your house
A seamless gutter is one piece from corner to corner. The coil goes into the machine and comes out the length of your eave, so the only joints on the house are at the corners and the end caps.
Sectional gutters from a home store come in ten-foot sticks and get joined every ten feet. Every joint is a place for water to find a way through, and in Tulsa it usually does within a few years. Seamless aluminum has no joints along the run, which is the whole point.
Jose's crew runs the coil at your house and cuts each piece to the exact length of the eave. A seamless run hangs on hidden hangers screwed into the fascia about every two feet, pitched toward the downspouts so water moves instead of standing.
Residential seamless gutter is run from aluminum coil, .027 inch as the standard and .032 inch where a heavier gutter is wanted. The finish is baked on at the factory, so black, white, bronze or a color matched to your brick or trim stays put without paint.
Tulsa gets around 40 inches of rain a year and most of it comes hard, with May the wettest month. The gutter's job is to catch that and get it to the downspouts before it spills over the front edge onto the beds and the foundation. Leave your address and a number, and Jose calls the same day with the price.
Five inch is the standard size and handles most single-story homes with ordinary pitches and runs under about 40 feet between downspouts. Six inch carries roughly 40 percent more water and is the right call on steep pitches that shed water fast, on long runs with few places for a downspout, where valleys dump two slopes into one spot, and on two-story homes where the upper eaves drain onto the lower ones. Tell Jose about the house when he calls, one story or two and how long the longest run is, and he will say which size it needs.

From Jose's jobs
Questions people ask
What does seamless actually mean?
The gutter is run as one continuous piece for each straight section of eave, cut to that exact length at your house. Store-bought gutter comes in ten-foot sections joined with connectors and sealant, and those joints are where leaks start. On a seamless run the only joints are the corners and the end caps.
Do I need 5 inch or 6 inch?
Most single-story homes do fine with 5 inch. Steep pitches, long runs, valleys that concentrate water and two-story homes usually call for 6 inch, which carries about 40 percent more water. Jose asks about the house when he calls and tells you which size it needs.
What colors are there?
Aluminum coil comes with the finish baked on at the factory in a long list of colors. White and black are the most common, and there are browns, grays and bronzes that disappear against brick or trim. Jose goes through the options when he calls with the price.
