The Long-Term Benefits of Gutter Replacement with Ensz & Sons Gutters of Huntsville
Before tackling a DIY gutter replacement in Huntsville, AL, you’ll need to assess the eaves and roofline for rot, dents or signs of rust or leaks. You’ll also need to decide on the type and length of gutters you want to install, based on the shape of your roofline and desired drainage. Gutter sections are typically sold in 10 to 20-foot lengths; however, you will likely need more or less than this, depending on the shape of your roof and home.
Before tackling the gutter replacement process, make sure you have a sturdy ladder, a spotter for safety and a few basic tools, such as a circular saw, multi-tool or a drill with a wood bit. You will also need to purchase gutter material and a handful of extras, including inside and outside corner pieces, downspout outlet fittings and end caps. Gutter lap sealer is also a must, and short sheet-metal screws or rivets work best for fastening these components, since they won’t leave sharp pins sticking out of the gutter seams.
