One of the secrets to ensuring your house lasts longer is taking care of your gutters. Gutters play important functions, like collecting rain water and preventing water from entering the basement. While gutter installation is best done by a professional, you can also do it yourself using simple supplies and tools as explained in the video.
In this blog, we will provide you with simple tips to ensure you install your gutter properly.
The first step to installing gutters is taking measurements of your roofline. You can carefully use a ladder and measure all around the house and know how many gutters you’ll need. Then proceed to cut the gutter sections as per the lengths you measured.
Once you have cut the gutter sections as per your roofline, use brackets to join the gutters together, then use screws to attach them to the edge of the roof. The screws will ensure that the gutters stay in place and will not be damaged despite the weather. Make sure you inspect your work once you are done to ensure that the gutters are properly aligned.
In conclusion, gutter installation is possible with proper planning and gathering of the right tools. If you need any further clarification about how to install gutters, then it is best to seek professional help. However, it’s not bad to try it out by yourself as we all learn by doing.
