Gutter Installation Methods

In order to offer a 5-year warranty on workmanship, Creative Gutter feels that we must install all gutters using the finest installation methods. Our entire gutter is secured to the home using hidden hangers. Hidden hangers are brackets that snap on the inside of the gutter. The hangers are installed on 24" centers and then screwed or nailed in place. Tension straps are then added to all gutters if the gutter is not on a flat fascia. These straps prevent the front of the gutter from sagging.

Corners:

All corners installed be Creative Gutter are hand mitered, which means better looking corners with no extra seams for our customers. All hand mitered corners look like a picture frame corner with 1 seam running down the center of each corner (not 2 seams as seen on pre-made corners). All seams are then sealed with a lifetime sealant, which cannot be seen from the outside of the gutter.

Fastening:

All gutters and down spouts are fastened together using color keyed rivets. Rivets are aluminum and fasten gutter parts together without penetrating into the gutter which can cause clogging. Rivets are the best looking fastening device for your new gutter system.
