Hello World ! As in, this is Traditional Metals coming out Blog entry. As the reach of our products expands so must our use of the medium with which we communicate with our customers and partners. In addition, our customers and partners have asked that we share information and this blog is a very appropriate way in which to do so.

So first of all, what do we do? Traditional Metals is a manufacturer and distributor of custom, decorative, and historic gutter and downspout systems for residential, commercial, and historic structures. We manufacture half-round and K-style gutter, as well as round and rectangular downspout systems and have the good fortune of having customers across the entire United States. And as we have tried hard to make special note of, much of what we deliver is “custom” type work. We tend to do a lot of work for unique houses and historical buildings. We pay attention to detail and we do everything we can to do a great job. We have partners and resources throughout the United States and have been able to deliver some very spectacular solutions. And yes, when it comes to installation, we have some resources for that too.
We would like to take full advantage of this blog as a way to get good give-and-take (by way of comments), but we’re going to have to have some rules with regards to blog comments.
If someone violates our blog comment policy, we will simply remove their comment(s). It’s that simple. Think of it as being invited into our home and then trash-talking the host! Not a cool thing to do.
Having said that, Traditional Metals realizes that we have a very diverse customer base and audience. We invite criticism and comment and you may do so. Just please do so without being obscene. But if you go down that path, your comments will be deleted.
For the record, Traditional Metal’s blog comment policy is:
- Please keep on topic as much as possible. Sometimes there is a lot to say, but if you wander, you run the chance that no one will follow you.
- Profanity, personal attacks, or other inappropriate behavior will be deleted.
- If you get ‘way off topic’ we may pull the comment as being irrelevant (hey, it’s our pool, we get to decide who can swim – sorry!)
- Do not get into politics or religion (see above). This qualifies as being off-topic. Everybody has a right to their beliefs.
- Watch your ‘linking’. If you post links that have nothing to do with the topic, your comment will be deleted and you may be banned!
- If you are going to say it, own it. Anonymous doesn’t cut it!.
- We will remove all spam. Spam is a bad thing. Don’t do it. We won’t tolerate it.
If we find that a comment that abuses our policy, we will remove the comment without notification. If someone insists on being a bone-head, we will block them (hey, it’s for the good of all of us – no point in letting a mental case rule our planet).
And that’s it !.. Sorry about the ‘rules’, but you know the Internet – it’s a jungle out there.
Thanks!
