Installing Gutters

Gutters are important for all homes because they move rainwater from the roof. When rainwater builds up on the roof it can cause leaks and other damage. If you do not have any gutters on your home, it’s important to install some immediately.

In this article, we are going to look at the process of installing gutters.

Before you start the installation you need to have the right tools. It will be important to have a ladder, as well as, a screwdriver. When you are going up a ladder you need to make sure that it is stable. It might be a good idea to have someone hold it for you.

When you are ready to start, you are going to measure the roof of your home so that you know where the gutters will go. The gutters should extend a little bit past the edge of the roof to catch all of the water that will flow down it.

After you have measured you can go ahead and attached the clamps to the roof. The clamps are going to hold the gutters in place. While you put the gutters onto the clamps make sure that the connection is tight. If the gutters are loose the rainwater might cause them to fall off.
