How to quickly remove gutters.

You don t want their weight dragging on gutter pieces after you detach them from the house. If you want to save time there are gutter rakes that allow you to reach longer and easily remove the leaves. One main tip to replace the spikes is to simply remove it accordingly one by one and not in a hurry. This also prevents the gutter from being separate while one performs this method.

How to remove gutters. Use a strong stream of water and avoid spraying underneath the roof shingles. Make sure you always have three points of contact with the ladder. This is as simple as removing each gutter hanger or other device that holds the gutter in place.

This is usually done by removing screws or using a pry bar to remove nails. With the above safety procedures in mind use a power drill in reverse or a screwdriver to remove the screws underneath the roof or in the siding holding the gutter in place. If you have to strain to reach those extra few leaves get down and move the ladder. Use the pry bar or hammer to pull out nails.

If the gutter is very long be cautious removing it. Take off downspouts first. Flush out the gutter with water starting at the far end and moving toward the downspout. Disconnect the downspout.

This step is the most important as many people try to be quick and fast but end up regretting in the end as they end up damaging their gutter spikes.
