What Are Commercial Box Gutters?
High-capacity drainage engineered for flat and low-slope roofs
Commercial box gutters are built-in, high-capacity roof channels designed to capture and convey water from flat and low-slope roofing systems. Unlike exposed K-style gutters, these structural troughs are integrated at the roof edge or behind parapet walls, tying into scuppers, conductor heads, and downspouts to move large volumes of water safely off the building. Clear Roofs fabricates systems in galvanized or stainless steel, aluminum, or copper, and can line new or existing gutters with single-ply membranes (TPO, PVC, EPDM) or liquid-applied coatings for superior, long-term waterproofing.
Properly engineered box gutters reduce ponding and roof load, protect facades and foundations, and extend roof service life. Our designs include correct slope-to-drain, expansion/deflection joints, overflow provisions, and robust tie-ins to roof membranes and wall flashings while meeting applicable codes and insurer requirements. Every system is custom-built to your building geometry, ensuring reliable performance during intense storms.
Precision design, fabrication, and waterproof tie-ins
Every project begins with a detailed assessment that includes flow-rate calculations, hydraulic layout, and condition surveys of the roof edge, substrate, and existing drainage. We plan drop locations, overflow scuppers, tapered build-ups for positive slope, and expansion joints to manage thermal movement. Fabrication options include welded or soldered seams, mechanically locked joints, and shop-formed sections with continuous liners, secured with compatible fasteners and primers to prevent galvanic corrosion.
During replacements or retrofits, Clear Roofs sequences work to maintain drainage and minimize disruption to operations. Temporary bypass drains, debris containment, and strict safety protocols keep your site clean and safe. Quality control includes adhesion pulls, seam probes, water testing, and final inspections, followed by as-built documentation, O&M manuals, and available manufacturer and workmanship warranties.
Preventative programs that keep water moving
A proactive maintenance program keeps water moving and prevents leaks. Our service plans include seasonal cleaning, basket/strainer checks, leaf and debris removal, and inspection of seams, hangers, and coatings. Technicians evaluate joint integrity, look for corrosion or pinholes, verify expansion joint performance, and confirm proper water flow at scuppers and downspouts.
When issues arise, Clear Roofs offers targeted repairs: isolated section replacement, heat-welded single-ply relining, soldered seam rework on metal systems, and high-solids elastomeric or urethane coating systems for long-term protection. We address terminations at roof membranes, wall flashings, reglets, and coping to eliminate capillary paths and recurring leak sources.
For urgent situations, our emergency response team delivers 24/7 support with rapid cleanouts, temporary water diversion, pump-downs, and protective measures to stabilize interiors. After the event, we provide root-cause reporting with photos, prioritized repair options, and budget planning to restore full capacity and resilience.

They did a fantastic job of disassembling the porch flooring, finding the issue, explaining how they were going to fix it, fixing it and then putting the porch back together.
