About Pillar Roofing
Before recommending a gutter replacement, your Pillar Roofing Concierge evaluates roof drainage, fascia condition, roof pitch, valleys, splash zones, landscaping, and foundation exposure.
We don't simply replace gutters—we design a complete water management system that protects your entire home.
About Pillar Roofing
Gutters used to be chosen almost automatically to match the house trim. That remains a classic option, especially when homeowners want the gutters and downspouts to blend quietly into the exterior.
Today, however, many homeowners are treating their gutters as part of the complete roofing system and matching them to the color of the roof instead. A black roof paired with black gutters creates a clean, bold outline that makes the entire roofline look like one finished assembly. The same approach works beautifully with brown, bronze, gray, and other roofing colors.
Darker gutters can also hide everyday dust, streaking, and discoloration better, allowing them to maintain a cleaner-looking finish between washings. You can handle downspouts in several ways, depending on the home. They may match the gutters for a continuous look, or they can match the siding, brick, or trim so they blend into the walls of the house.
The right combination can either make the gutter system disappear into the exterior or turn it into an attractive finishing detail that ties the roof and the rest of the home together.
About Pillar Roofing
Your Pillar Roofing Concierge will help you compare traditional 5-inch gutters with today’s larger 6-inch residential gutter system. While 5-inch gutters may be adequate for smaller, lower-pitched roofs, steep and complex rooflines can send rainwater to the eaves much faster and in greater volume.
A 6-inch system provides significantly more carrying capacity, helping reduce overflow, protect landscaping and foundations, and manage heavy Texas downpours more effectively.
Originally common on commercial buildings, 6-inch gutters have become a smart, attractive upgrade for modern homes—and for many steep roofs, they simply make better sense.
About Pillar Roofing
A beautiful new roof is only part of the solution—rainwater still needs a safe path away from your home.
Your Pillar Roofing Concierge will provide Before & After photos on your final invoice and make sure your gutters and downspouts are properly sized, positioned, and flowing the way they should.
From correcting overflowing gutters to improving drainage around roof valleys and entryways, we look at the entire water-management system—not just the shingles.
The result is a roof and gutter system that work together to protect your siding, landscaping, foundation, and peace of mind.
A properly designed gutter system is one of the most important defenses against water damage. Gutters collect rainwater from your roof and direct it safely away from your home's foundation, landscaping, siding, and walkways.
At Pillar Roofing, we install custom seamless gutter systems designed to improve drainage, reduce leaks, and enhance curb appeal. Every system is measured and fabricated to fit your home's exact roof-line for long-lasting performance and protection.
Even small drainage issues can lead to costly problems over time, including foundation movement, soil erosion, wood rot, staining, and landscape damage. A well-designed gutter and downspout system helps protect your investment by efficiently managing water runoff during heavy Texas storms and reducing the risk of future repairs.
Modern seamless gutters are manufactured on-site from continuous aluminum coil using specialized gutter-forming equipment. This process allows us to create long gutter runs—often 40 feet or more—with few or no seams. Reduced leak potential, Improved durability, Cleaner appearance, and Lower maintenance. Each system is completed with custom corners, miters, outlets, elbows, and downspouts to ensure proper drainage and a professional finish.
Custom gutters are formed directly from aluminum coil at your home for a precise fit.
Continuous gutter sections often exceed 40 feet without seams, reducing leak points.
Every corner, elbow, outlet, and downspout is fabricated to match the home's drainage requirements.
A professionally installed system provides reliable water management while enhancing curb appeal.
In North Texas, 5" and 6" K-style seamless gutters are by far the most common. Many larger homes are moving toward 6" systems with oversized 3x4 downspouts because of the heavy downpours we see in DFW.
