The Whole Story:
Copper gutters offer a unique, sophisticated look that is difficult to replicate. They are very strong and durable, but there is a high price to pay for this additional strength. After some time, the copper gutters will oxidize and turn green unless they are sealed and treated. Copper gutters are unlikely to rust and they require less maintenance than aluminum gutters. The installation is more complicated because the joints must be soldered.
