Gutters 101: Coordinating Gutter Helmet® Color

Gutter Helmet® is an innovative gutter protection system that takes care of all your gutter maintenance and cleaning needs on its own, without you needing to lift a finger. The product is available in a range of colors to complement your exterior. Here, Huff ‘N Puff shares a few tips on how to choose the best color for your Gutter Helmet system.

Check If Your Gutters Are Even Visible From the Outside

Depending on the style of gutters you have, you may not even be able to see them from the outside, or perhaps only the gutters in the front of your home are visible. If your gutters aren’t even visible then there’s no need to stress about choosing an appropriate color.

Check the Material of Your Gutters

Ask your gutter contractor during inspection if the material of your gutters allows installation of this system. The coating of your existing gutters should be able to adhere to the coating of Gutter Helmet.

Consider Your Roof Color

You want your Gutter Helmet to complement the color of your roof. Generally, we recommend choosing a color that will draw attention away from your gutter and back to your roof. The gutter system is meant to serve as a functional extension of your roof, not a flashy decoration.

Compare Prices From Different Contractors

Prices may vary based on the contractor’s installation method and product offerings. We recommend gathering three quotes and choosing the one that best suits your budget. Some contractors may offer a additional products, such as a heated gutter system, which would affect the cost. At Huff ‘N Puff, we offer Helmet Heat®, an automated heating system that prevents ice dams from forming in your gutters.

Ask Your Contractor What Colors Are Available

At Huff ‘N Puff, we offer eight gutter helmet colors: brown, charcoal, pale gray, black, bronze, green, sand, and timber. We’d be happy to offer advice on which color would work best with your home’s style.
