2010年6月8日 · Also I generally prefer to intall oversized 6" gutters on a metal roof. Furthermore I almost always install an .032 aluminum gutter, even on shingle roof. The .027 just is junk... and certainly not the .024 that home cheapo sells.... Then again the material of the gutter should match the material of the roof. If the roof is aluminum, I would ...

2009年1月16日 · On metal roofs in snow country we try to put the lip of the gutter 1" below the fall line of the roof. That way, when the ice slides off, it slides over the gutter (hopefully).:thumbup: Also, a snow rail or snow stops will hold the snow on the roof until it melts, because you can't have snow cascading off the roof over the front door, driveway etc.

2013年7月3日 · I installed a 2/12 pitch steel roof. The owner is now having a problem I have to fix. Because of the low pitch, snow slides off the roof VERY slowly (like over the course of a few days). As it does, it hardens and turns into a giant mass of hard, heavy ice-snow. It then rips off the gutters and falls on the side walk-way.

2016年1月14日 · Gutters get removed and the old portion that is attached to the roof becomes the gutter apron. Fascia gets installed as high as it will be allowed to go then the gutters. Reactions: youngbuck and Texas Wax

2005年11月30日 · In the snow belt, the gutters fill up with snow, then with meltwater which becomes ice, and in a relatively short time there is a mound of ice at the edge of the roof that gets in the way of snow sliding off the metal roof. So the outside edge of the gutters on a metal roof in snow country should be lower than the slope line of the roof by ...

2014年3月6日 · I need to put continuos gutters on a 12/4. Square cut rafter tails, 2x6 facia, no soffit. two thoughts...-I am thinking of making a triangle trim to nail onto the entire facia, about 1-2" up from the bottom to make the gutter plumb.-or just nailing some square stock where the bottom of the gutter will land.

2009年5月10日 · 2. Drip edge over the felt. I see this on instructions for applying ice and water. The theory is that, if water flows back up the roof, under the shingles, the water can't come in contact with the roof sheeting. Because the roof sheeting is completely covered. 3. I have also seen the ice and water spec to run the ice and water down over the sub ...

2014年7月29日 · If you have the gutters off, I would tend to replace the facia and offset some of the cost with recycled aluminum. I hate multiple seams, ever flashed right behind the gutter. If I have to buy a coil, rip all the metal on the break, and slip a …

2016年6月7日 · Client would like the new porch roof to be of metal roof construction, and not very steep. However, at the ends where the new roof will mate up to the existing roof at the house, it will overlay an existing asphalt shingle roof. The new metal roof will be approximately 2 vertical to 12 horizontal slope.

2006年7月7日 · When it rains hard the water running down my roof will run right past the gutter and onto the ground. My gutters have a plastic mesh cover with an aluminum rail that runs the lenght of the gutter to support the mesh. The shingles appear to have been installed such that they cover almost half of the gutter.
