A DIY gutter installation may help you save money now, but there\u2019s no guarantee that you can do it successfully. The savings you get from a DIY gutter installation won\u2019t be worth it later on when you keep spending for frequent repairs. If you want to make the most out of your budget, just leave the installation to a trusted residential roofing<\/a> contractor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Only a professional contractor knows how to properly install your gutters. They won\u2019t commit any of the following DIY or rookie mistakes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Calculating the Pitch Incorrectly<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If the gutters aren\u2019t installed properly, the water runoff won\u2019t drain properly and can damage the edges of your roof. Typically, a 1- to 2-inch pitch for every 40 feet of gutters is needed to allow water runoff to flow towards the downspouts. This is hardly noticeable, but it\u2019s needed to ensure your gutters stay clean, and the water runoff won\u2019t pool and damage your roof. Professional contractors also know how to mount a gutter system with a slight pitch while making it look even. They\u2019ll determine the right pitch depending on the size of your roof and mount them precisely to ensure a successful installation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not Choosing the Right Gutter Type<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Professional contractors are usually very knowledgeable about the different types, sizes, styles and gauges of gutters. If you decide to DIY your installation and choose the wrong type of gutter, it can cost you more down the road. This is why it pays to have a gutter installation<\/a> project done by experienced roofers as they can help you choose the most durable material for your roof based on its structure and design without breaking your budget!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spacing the Mounting Incorrectly<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are different types of hangers and mounting systems that are used when installing gutters. They should also be spaced carefully to give proper support. Otherwise, they\u2019ll sag when it rains which can lead to water pooling over time. Eventually, the gutters will fall off or the water will cause damage to your roof; either of which will only mean more costly repairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
