If it's not too high up bring your wife- she can grit her hand in there better and you will gain a new ground respect from her. :thumbsup:

Oct 20, 2010 · I have a tried two dozen gutter seal brands over the years with very disappointing results. It does not seem to matter what it claims to do, whats in it or how much it costs. What is your favorite brand and method of applying gutter seal to get consistent drip free results? (For aluminum gutters) :furious:

Aug 21, 2006 · It is clear you are using a quality sealant when you say it pulls the paint off the gutter. But the gutter will expand just the same as a mitered corner or as strip.

I have 3 other guys that can help for the day to carry it, but it still seems long even for that many guys. Are there ways to help carry the gutter without bending / issues?

Feb 24, 2017 · I was unable to find anywhere online to order, or even research, GC gutter materials, and I'm pretty good at digging things up online. Material procurement (and handling) is far and away the biggest PITA we regularly encounter. Thanks for the help everyone.

Mar 7, 2012 · After tuck pointing I had a few options when it came to the flashing joint. Mortar, mortar caulk, silicone, or Firestone EPDM lap sealant. I feel like the mortar won't adhere to the metal and will crack. I don't like the work ability of the mortar caulk...I always seem to make a bigger mess and ruin a nice flashing job.
