Gutters in Canyon Lake, TX

About thirty minutes northwest, up into the hills.

Canyon Lake is hill country proper, and the houses sit on ground that moves water fast.

Metal roofs shed quicker than shingle

A standing-seam metal roof has almost no friction compared to composition shingle. The same rain arrives at the eave faster and in a more concentrated sheet, which means a gutter that would have coped on a shingle roof of the same size can be overwhelmed on a metal one. Six inch is the sensible default up here rather than an upgrade.

Metal roofs also throw water further off the edge in a hard rain, so gutter positioning relative to the drip line matters more than it does on a shallow shingle overhang.

Cedar

Ashe juniper, which everyone here calls cedar, sheds fine stringy debris and a great deal of pollen. It does not form the dense mat that live oak does, but it packs into outlets. If you are going to fit guards under cedar, that debris is one of the things we match the guard to.

Slope

On a steep lot the ground is already carrying water toward or away from the house before your gutters are involved. We look at the whole picture and place downspouts to work with the fall of the land rather than against it.

Thinking about guards under cedar? Read gutter guards with live oaks and cedar elms.
