Re: [DIY] vinyl gutters

We live at 6000 ft near Yosemite and I also need 30' of gutters...going with the covered
metal with the small slot near the roof...used to get 10' ++ of snow per season...now
with obama-warming we get 2" (yes..inches) the last 3 years...

I don't know. But I like the hanger system and the chance to install ten feet at a time a lot better than one piece of aluminum with spikes.

If I do this myself, I hope to increase the slope so that they do not clog as easily as the ones that fell off.

I would put up 10 ft lengths and glue after. PVC i flexible. It can be pushed back to glue and returned after the glue is in place.

do I need to connect three 10 foot chunks before I get on the ladder or can I nail up all the hangers and put the 10 foot sections up one at a time? I assume that these things have to be glued like pcv pipe but it sure seems like I could make it a lot easier if I only had to put up 10 foot at a time.
