Gutter sagging and ready to fall off building.
This gutter repair project in the University District neighborhood of Eugene involved restoring and correcting an older aluminum gutter system rather than replacing it entirely. After inspection, the homeowner chose repair over replacement because the existing gutter was still structurally sound and fully serviceable — a cost-effective decision that preserved the original system.
As part of the repair, the old gutter spikes were removed and replaced with heavy-duty gutter screws. Over time, traditional gutter spikes tend to loosen as aluminum gutters expand and contract through seasonal temperature changes. This often causes gutters to sag or pull away from the structure. Gutter screws provide a far more secure fastening system and are much less likely to loosen over time.
The gutter was also re-sloped to restore proper drainage and improve overall performance. With these repairs completed, the system is now functioning correctly and should provide many more years of reliable service.
