When installing copper gutters, it’s essential that every part of the gutter system—from the gutters and guards to fasteners and downspouts—is made entirely of copper. Mixing copper with metals like aluminum or steel will lead to galvanic corrosion. This chemical reaction causes the non-copper parts to corrode rapidly, resulting in leaks, staining, and system failure. For longevity and appearance, an all-copper system is a must.
This house already had some copper elements, so not continuing would have created a disconnected look, not a good look or a good choice from either an aesthetic or a scientific perspective. In our opinion, when it comes to architecture, continuity is king!
Copper gutters are unique in how they change color over time. Right after installation, copper has a bright, metallic shine. As it reacts with the elements, it goes through several color stages—first turning bronze, then brown, and eventually developing the famous green patina.
Did you know? Depending on the environment, it can take over 50 years for copper gutters to fully turn green. Dry climates slow the process, while humid or coastal areas can speed it up. The patina is not just beautiful; it protects the copper and extends the lifespan of your gutter system.
“Letting copper gutters age naturally is a big part of what makes them last so long. The patina that forms is actually a protective barrier—it shields the metal underneath from further corrosion and damage, which is why copper gutters can easily last a century or more.”
