Very helpful video. Have one 30-foot gutter on the back of the screen porch that is so level, it won't let water drain to the far-end downspout. Did not know how the screws worked other than holding the gutter to the roof. Now I know. I also did not want to call the experts who installed it to come out and fix the problem. Thanks for your video!!
Exactly what I was looking for today! Want to redirect water to rain tanks. I've been in the trades for many years but have done little with gutters. Great video.
Just had 400 feet done on my home. Three sides look great , but of course the front near garage which I see everyday there was an issue. The 6 inch gutter runs down below the fascia board. Something got off somewhere because the good 3 sides show the fascia under the gutter. I also put bulldog guards on.. we had a heavy rain and the water was sheeting off the gutter guards similar to an overflowing gutter . I need you to come to Maryland and fix my issues… don’t want to call back company that did the work. 😯
Thanks for sharing pro tips my friend. I heard u say at beginning about dropping half inch but leveled everything else. Question about slope, I’ve got 2 corners that have sunk low over time and me putting ladders up against. Flow is terrible and water holds in corner where gutter wraps around eave corner, how does one tackle corners? Down spouts are at both ends fairly long run like the one in this video
i have a recessed custom made zinc gutter placed in an impossible position to access and/or costs a ton of money to rebuild that part of the frame structure to reverse the pitch. An idea came to my mind whether i could use some filler material like a stiff dense xps , protected against uv for yeralong use and lay it on the the surface of the pooling areas to increase base height. An easiy fix if it stays attached to the metal gutter and water does not penetrate underneath and raise the foam from under thus pooling again. Nowhere i could find such trial and error on video or any forums so i wanted to ask here where many pros also reading comments section and give me some opinion on feasibility or impossiblility of the application if i may say.
I need some advice, the corners of my seamless gutter has ponding and pooling of water, I was told this was "normal", is it? Granted there isn't a very close to the corner in question, though.
Not very helpful as he doesn't explain how to get access to unscrew the gutter hangers. These screws are behind the gutter you want to relevel. Didn't help me at all.
Sweet video! What do you consider level about every “5 ft” if the gutters at an angle to the downspout? Like is it just kinda level or with the slight angle it’s possible to level between short distances? My thought is the bubble in the level wouldn’t center with the angle of the gutter.
If I am understanding you correctly, I think you have got it, but he does explain it in more detail in the video "How to level a rain gutter (full video)" th-cam.com/video/8VXzAsSb4nE/w-d-xo.html
If that was the case we wouldn’t have any linemen or ISP techs etc. lol you have to reach and lean on poles while gaffed and on ladder. Gotta do what you have to do
Yeah. Setting unrealistic standards and employees will ignore safety. OSHA standards are fine. Leg levelers are the most important thing that al.ost no one has. Then stabilizers. Then bike shoes with a steel shank under the ball of the foot.

I have to do this on a mobile home. Thank you for the tutorial.
What do you do with the old holes after removing the brackets. Seems like they could let in water.
Would have been nice if we could have seen what you’re doing from your viewpoint above rather than down on the ground.
If you move a downspout, how do you patch the old hole??? Is there a repair kit?
I wish you’d talk more about the drip edge & how up & under you slide the gutter

Same issue, thanks
Please add closeups to what you are doing for those of us who are doing this for the first time.
Muchas Gracias

sorry we took the time
You seem like the kind of guy who gets a free beer & then bitches that it’s not cold enough.
Can you make a video on making a template for a fascia machine?

Thank you 👏🏼
You’re welcome 😊
How do you repitch a flanged gutter?
My gutter design allows you to fix this problem in 10 minutes
They’re really hard to re level when they’re full of water, slime, dead birds, etc. and running above a bunch of horse stalls.
Ladder safety: Never lean out past your belt buckle...in your case past your knee joint
If that was the case we wouldn’t have any linemen or ISP techs etc. lol you have to reach and lean on poles while gaffed and on ladder. Gotta do what you have to do

This service announcement was brought to you by..... the guys who never work from ladders
How do I attach it to my steel pole barn? Lol
That’s cool and all but I can’t see anything your doing ….
