Gutters


 

As part of new construction by a homeowner, gutters must match or complement the existing trim color or area of the house to which they are attached. Extensions of down spouts at ground level are discouraged because of drainage considerations on adjoining properties and common area. All down spout extensions must be buried in such a manner to adequately manage runoff, according to correct engineering practices and local codes. New gutters require an application. 

 

Replacement gutters and down spouts must match or compliment the existing trim color or area of the house to which they are attached.  They must not adversely affect drainage on adjacent properties. If the replacement gutters/downspouts conform to this criterion, no application is necessary. Should there be any variance an EAA must be submitted.

 

New technology gutters that prevent leaf backup or that distribute rainfall along the length of the gutter may be approved if the visual design is similar to the original gutter.
