Quick answer
7 Inch Gutters in Buckhead & West Atlanta, GA: 7 inch seamless gutters are built for commercial buildings, condo and apartment complexes and very large residential roofs where even 6 inch would overflow, and they come with oversized downspouts to match. The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Buckhead & West Atlanta forms them on site for properties across the metro. Call (770) 213-1621 or book online.
Condo buildings and townhome communities in Midtown, Sandy Springs and Smyrna often have long, low-slope roof planes that drain to one edge. When that much roof feeds a single run, a 7 inch gutter with oversized outlets is what keeps a summer thunderstorm in the trough instead of on the walkway below.
We form 7 inch on site just like our smaller sizes, so a long building wall gets one continuous piece. For storefronts, offices and multi-building properties, ask about our commercial and multi-unit work.

Planning 7 inch gutters for multi-unit, commercial and large-roof properties
When one roof edge collects more water than a 6 inch trough can carry, 7 inch is the answer. Here is how we plan it on buildings with residents, walkways and a board to answer to.
On a condo building or townhome community in Midtown, Sandy Springs or Smyrna, the gutter rarely hangs anywhere forgiving. It runs over entry doors, stair landings and shared walkways, so when it overflows, the water lands on residents instead of a planter bed. The cost of getting the size wrong is higher than on a single-family home.
These roofs tend to be long and low-slope, and many drain to a single edge. That puts a lot of water into one run, often with other gutters emptying into it as well. A clean 6 inch gutter that still spills in normal rain is the clearest sign 7 inch belongs there.
We form 7 inch on the truck just like the smaller sizes, so a long building wall gets one continuous piece and there are no joints dripping over a doorway. Oversized downspouts go in with it, usually more of them than the old system had.
Where the water lands on a multi-unit property
Sizing the trough is half the plan. The other half is deciding where all that water comes down, because a 7 inch run delivers a lot of it to each outlet.
| Spot | The risk | How we plan around it |
|---|---|---|
| Entry doors and stair landings | Overflow and drip on residents | A continuous run overhead and downspouts kept away from the doorway |
| Shared walkways | Standing water, slick concrete and red clay after storms | Downspouts at building corners, with discharge carried off by underground drainage |
| Corners where several gutters meet | That run carries far more than its own roof | 7 inch on that run with oversized downspouts |
| Landscaped strips along the foundation | Erosion and water sitting against the slab | Elbows at the bottom of every downspout that turn water away from the wall |

- A list of the spots residents complain about, especially over doors and stairs.
- Roof access details, plus any gate codes or keys the crew will need.
- Which buildings share drainage or feed water into each other’s gutters.
- Past repair history, so we can see where problems keep coming back.
- Any color or appearance rules the board follows for exterior work.
- Preferred work days and hours, so crews can plan around residents and parking.
Not every big roof needs 7 inch
Plenty of large homes and smaller buildings are well served by 6 inch gutters with the right number of downspouts, and we will say so when the measurements point there. When 7 inch is the call, the next job is keeping it clear: a wide trough hides a lot of oak leaves and pine straw until an outlet plugs during the first winter rain. Our maintenance program puts every building on a schedule ahead of the wet seasons, and we install guards on multi-unit roofs too. For storefronts, offices and multi-building sites, our commercial and multi-unit work covers the rest.

Posted on Google7 Inch Gutter Questions, Answered
When a clean 6 inch system still overflows in normal rain, when the roof sends more water than 6 inch can carry, or when several gutters empty into one run. They are designed for commercial buildings, barns and very large homes, paired with oversized downspouts.
Some do. Large flat and low-slope roofs on condo buildings and townhome communities in Midtown, Sandy Springs and Smyrna can push a lot of water to a single edge. We measure the roof area and how it drains, then recommend 6 or 7 inch based on what that edge actually receives.
No. Commercial buildings and barns use them most, but very large homes do too, especially where one big roof plane drains to a single run. The deciding factor is how much water reaches that gutter, not whether the building is a home or a business.
Sometimes. The largest Buckhead and Sandy Springs estates have roof planes that send more water to one edge than 6 inch can catch, which is one case where 7 inch is worth considering. A Solutionist checks how the water leaves the roof before recommending a size.
Yes. A 7 inch trough carries more than standard downspouts can move, so it gets oversized downspouts, often more of them. We work out outlets from the roof area and how hard the rain falls, because a big gutter with too few outlets still overflows.
Usually the roof is sending more water than that gutter can carry, or several gutters drain into the same run. Going to 7 inch with oversized outlets, or adding downspouts in the right places, typically solves it. On metro Atlanta condo and commercial roofs, the trouble tends to show up wherever a large roof area feeds one corner.
Yes. We form 7 inch from coil at the property, the same as our 5 and 6 inch, so a long townhome wall in Smyrna gets one continuous run instead of sections joined every twenty feet. Call (770) 213-1621 to set up a measurement.
