What is a
K-Style Gutter?
The term “K-style” indicates the shape of the gutter, which is flat on the back, and shaped like crown molding in the front, to accentuate your roofline. Gutter is an aluminum trough that attaches to the fascia of your home. It is designed to catch rain water coming off the roof.
