    Gutters and downspouts are easy. As long as you aren’t scared of heights and can carry/climb 32-40ft extension ladders with/without standoffs, can drive a nail and read a tape...You’re golden 🙌🏻 I’m a gutter guy, guy. Lol. Also, knowing how to use a metal brake is useful too (flashing). Great video!

    I was a little confused when you cut the part to fit into the second elbow that looked like a B-style one, but I see you put the A style elbow and saved the B for the bottom turn. Thanks so much for showing the can-opener style drop-cut to the gutter. I'm going to share this video!

    Thanks for teaching a great trick, not having to use the silly insert to attach the gutter is fantastic. It makes sense not to use a gutter insert, since the lip of the insert is above the water level and it leads to gravel accumulation. Your method allows for water to go where it wants to go, downhill!

    Attaching the elbow to the gutter's cut down tabs frequently leads to ripping the aluminum gutter at some point. I understand about the outlet tubes affecting roof gravel drainage. I try to build a gentle slope using my sealant. In some areas, code mandates use of the outlet tubes.

    Brilliant idea to attach the elbow to the gutter. I follow this and am so happy that I did because I have no access from the above 2-story gutter during the addition. I drill a hole and then cut the diagonals instead as the older gutter is way to tough. Thanks so much!

    As a casual observer/non-professional plumber who has had many plumbers input, the one thing I would change to this approach, is that I would create an air-gap between the down-pipe running vertical along the house, and the pipe on the ground, meaning, putting a grated drain or a sump at the bottom, this allows water to flow at all times, even if there is something clogging the downpipe, it also allows debris to fall out of the downpipe onto the grate/sump, then from the sump/grated drain, I would continue the pipeline as you have.

    If you measure the soffit from the wall to the outer edge of the fascia and then take off four and a half inches that is how long you will cut the piece of pipe that goes from elbow to elbow and it will be a perfect pit every time.... Put the elbows together to the Cross arm pipe before attaching it to the gutter

    One final tip I learned from the contractor who installed most of my gutter system. He uses some type of one-inch drill saw to make a one-inch hole at the center of the "X". Then he uses tin snips to cut the legs of the X. Really a great way to do it.

  • @AroundTheHome1

    That is an interesting way to do it. Any standard hole saw would cut the aluminum gutter. If it is digging in to hard then you can run the drill backwards and get your cutout.

    Hi Nathan. I got the job done, but had trouble getting the "X" cut with the utility knife even with a new blade. Finally, I had to do a starter cut on each leg with a Dremel rotary saw. Has someone invented a device to cut the "X" perfectly every time with less effort? It seems like a device with two plates, top and bottom, with sharp edges on the bottom and grooves on top, both in the shape of the "X" with a jack screw connecting them would be a wonderful time saver and would make exactly the right length of cuts every time. The jack screw would go through a 1/4 inch hole that would be drilled in the center of where the downspout was to be located. Just turn the jack screw with a handle and it's done! Anyway, it's done and I put plenty of sealer on. Hopefully it'll be watertight next rain or snow. That 1/4 inch magnetic driver was a real aid!

    Measure the soffit, and height off the wall. Make the A style neck length 4 inches shorter than the length of the soffit to account for the size of what looks like small square elbows in this video, crimp an end,attach the elbows, boom neck is made, make a length 20 inches shorter than the wall crimp in end and add an elbow, now when all is attached the bottom of the pipe will be a little less than a foot off the ground just to be sure it’s not short and can be shortened if to low. Now take an small square outlet, (that I haven’t seen anyone use yet on KZread ) and add a bead of clear silicone caulking Around it under the lip. Trace the inside of the outlet onto the pipe where it is desired with a sharp pencil. Cut out the hole with snips. Pop in the outlet. Pull it snug at two coloured screws under the eaves trough and through the lip of the bracket on each side to get it really snug. The caulking already seals the screws. Check that the prepaid neck a style neck fits well, screw the top on each elbow to. Attach it to the outlet and Make sure it’s strait to the wall aligning with the soffit groves to look very nice. Make a mark on the wall, attach your two straps or three if it’s a tall one, drill and plug if it’s brick. Attach the pipe to the neck add a coloured screw on the hidden side. Wrap your straps screw it in. Add you extensions and you’re done. Secure the bottom elbow with 2 coloured screws and tadda done. Less up and down the latter, less spend 1 hour cutting an x for a hole with a knife no measuring every other stage of this process one at a time and no visible caulking at the outside of the top elbow.

    Hi, video-thanks. I have a question. I'm trying to take apart my downspouts as I have a clog at the bottom. But I can't get these screws off. It doesn't look like a regular screw. It looks circular. Thought maybe an allen wrench would work-nope. Thought maybe I could pry it off with a flat head-nope. Do you have any clue? Is there a standard or special screw for downspouts? I know it sounds silly but I'm clueless how to get this thing off.

    To my knowledge, at least around here, there are two methods used. A small hex head screw or a rivet. So, I am assuming by your description that you have rivets. They have to be drilled out. Normally a 1/8th in drill bit will do the job. Then you can get some gutter screws to put it back together with. Thanks for watching, and I am glad to help.

    I don't know the specific size, they are just the sheet metal screws right there in the gutter department. They are also color coated to match the different color gutters.

    I think you mean rafter, but I know what you are asking. There should be a 1x6 board behind the facia wrap, or just the facia board alone. Long story short, as long as it is not rotten then you can screw anywhere into the facia. Thanks for watching. Don't forget to stop by our website www.greatwhiteninja.com

    It can be an option if they are spaced on 16 in centers and not further out, and if they are the right length. Of course, against a facia board is better and it sounds like that is what you need to get them the right length. I don't have any gutter install videos, but take a look for some so you can see how to line them up. Also, if it is possible to get a drip edge there if you don't have one.

    Good questions. It was a long time back so I don't know if they were self drilling or not. Honestly the metal is thin enough that just the sharp pointed gutter screws will cut in just fine. Now the bit for the drill, that is the trick. Use a 1/4" hex driver. It will have a magnet in it to hold the screw. This makes the job as easy as it looks.

    I have a question about my downspout connection to my gutters. My downspouts are 3x4, but the cut on the gutter is about 2x2 inches. In addition to this necking down the installer used sheet metal screws that catch all the debris. Flow to the downspout ends up being nothing and I have to clean my gutters about every two weeks. I was wondering if you have any solutions. I was thinking about adding another downspout up the line of the gutter about 5 feet and connecting it to the existing downspout.

  • @AroundTheHome1

    @AroundTheHome1

    5 жыл бұрын

    Ok, I will do the best I can to answer your questions. I am surprised that your opening is only 2x2. If you take your downspout off you can enlarge the opening using the technique that I used here. I used sheet metal screws as well, but mine are for gutters meaning they are not only painted to match, but very short. If longer screws are used, I can see that they would catch everything. If you want to ditch the screws altogether then you can switch to pop rivets. I don't understand your last question. Connect it to the existing downspout? Actually, let me step back here. If your downspouts can handle the water flow from regular rain when they are not clogged, then I would not add more. Just address the problems you have with the small opening and long screws. Then maybe install some sort of leaf guard on them to keep debris from even entering. Thanks for watching, and I am glad to help. Don't forget to stop by our website www.greatwhiteninja.com

    These cheap and nasty gutter outlets are the bane of every homeowner with trees around his house. Why? Because they plug up so easily! The proper outlet is a funnel the full width of the bottom of the gutter and 9 inches long with a 3" x 3" outlet minimum. The transition from 9" to 3" is by inclined sides at 45 degrees. This will resist plugging with most foliage debris.

    This is basically a pro tip for the weekend warrior. That being said it is the same method that the Pro Installers use in the south and mid-west for residential gutters. That's where I learned how to do this. I see that you liked a video of a gutter installer soldering his downspouts. I have only seen that method used for commercial application. Maybe where you live that is done for residential, but not around here. Screwing your downspouts together is really helpful with all the trees we have around here in case you need to take it apart for cleaning. Thanks for watching, and I am glad to help.
