Tools & Equipment Needed

Now before you get into installing Seamless Gutters there are a few things you need before you install Seamless Gutters:

  • Tall Extended Ladder
  • Hacksaw or Gutter
  • Machine
  • Measuring Tape
  • End Caps
  • Drill Gun
  • Gutter Flashing
  • Screws
  • Gutter Caulk or Sealant

1) Have your Seamless Gutter ready and place your ladder against the roof

Before you can do anything, you need Seamless Gutters of course and it needs to be made correctly before installing.

When placing your ladder, make sure it’s straight and the foots of the ladder are in a good position to hold you so that you don’t fall.

2) Make sure your fascia is not damaged

This is very important because if it’s rotted or damaged, gutters can fall off and get destroyed, so it’s best to replace them if it’s damaged or rotted.

3) Measure the amount of gutter you want to make sure it matches the length of the fascia.

The fascia is what’s going to be holding the gutters, so make sure your gutters match the length of the side before installing.

4) Cut hole for downspout

Now you do want to cut a hole the end of the gutters or wherever you like to insert your downspout.

5) Pre-drill Holes

Pre-drill your holes so that it will make it easier for you stall them, a good rule of thumb is through every two feet.

5) Go up Ladder and Install

Go Up the Ladder and Set up the Gutter and make it level & straight then attach your gutter hangers to keep your gutters in place and then you attach your downspouts.

"Mike was great to work with. He explained all that needed to be done to install a quality roof that would last. Had other quotes but other contractors were not as informative and did not include everything that was needed. Mike’s crew was courteous, did an excellent job and completed the work in a timely fashion. If you are not familiar with working with insurance adjusters be sure Mike meets with them when you set up a meeting. This was helpful in my case and made the claims process run smoothly. I am very pleased 😀 with his service and recommend him to my neighbors of which two have used him across from my home."
