SeaTac's housing stock tells a specific story: 43% of homes were built between the 1940s and 1960s, meaning the majority of properties have outdated, undersized gutter systems that were never designed for modern rainfall intensity.

Most SeaTac homes were built during the post-war housing boom with 4-inch gutters — a size that was adequate for the era but falls far short of what today's rainfall demands. These undersized systems overflow during moderate rain, spilling water against foundations and staining siding. Upgrading to a 6-inch seamless rain gutter system is one of the highest-value improvements a SeaTac homeowner can make, often costing $1,500–$3,000 while preventing thousands in potential water damage over the system's 20–30 year lifespan.
