Gutter and downspout size for North Miami Beach rain
Gutters are sized for the worst few minutes of a storm, not for the year. In North Miami Beach the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 10.99 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 9). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 660 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,310, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook.

The houses in North Miami Beach
Half the homes in North Miami Beach were built by 1967, 80% before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). At that age a gutter has seen decades of leaves and storms, and the fascia it hangs from has too. On a house built before 1978, replacing more than 20 square feet of painted fascia or trim falls under the EPA’s lead-safe rule, so ask whether the crew is certified.
51% of households own their home, and 39% of homes are detached houses, 3% townhouses. Where an HOA governs the exterior, its rules on gutter color and style apply before any order is placed.
