How to fit guttering and fascia.

Step by step step 1. Gutters are often installed level for appearance. Use a pencil to mark the positioning of the outlet and its fixing holes onto the fascia ensuring that it is no. Set the angle of a miter saw to 45 degrees so you can make clean cuts through the board.

Locate each block where you intend to attach a bracket. Find the lowest point of the guttering that is usually where the gutter discharges into a pipe. To establish the position of the running outlet or stopend outlet hang a plumb bob from the fascia so that it. Drill pilot holes then fit the.

Then an inspection of all the current fascia and timber must be carried out and any rotten or degraded timber must be removed the timber will be holding the weight of guttering eaves tiles and capping boards so must be sturdy. Find the highest point s of the gutter run that is the furthest point away from the rain water pipe s screw a support bracket to the highest point this is usually 10mm below the roof tile. Miter the ends of your fascia board to 45 degree angles so they fit together. Put on your safety glasses and position the fascia board so the corner on one end lines up with the saw blade.

Then drill pilot holes in the blocks and attach them to the fascia with 25 mm 1 inch wood screws. Attaching angled blocks will keep your guttering parallel to the ground instead of dipping toward or away from the shed. With help lift the gutter in place and secure the corner first screwing the bracket into the roof s fascia.
