I’ve been told that my gutters must be re-hung to be functional. What does a “gutter re-hang” involve?”
February 27, 2024Why should I choose copper gutters over aluminum gutters?
February 27, 2024On some historic slate roofs, gutters are mounted on hangers affixed onto the roof before slates are installed on top of the hangers. When these “roof-mounted shanks & circles” need work, you really want a slate roofer to do the job. In order to replace roof-mounted shanks, every slate covering the shanks needs to be removed. New shanks should then be screwed into the roof decking, and then your slates should be re-installed. General contractors are only equipped to screw gutter hangers onto your wooden trim below the roofline.
