Drainage & Gutters: Step-by-Steps

Q&A


Q: My aluminum gutters are leaking at the seams, but it's not in my budget to replace them this year. Is there any way I can seal the seams?

— Mark, Leominster, Massachusetts

Tips


Copper gutters are beautiful, luxurious, and almost indestructible, provided you attach them with copper fasteners. Any other metal will set up a galvanic reaction, causing the nail, the copper, or both to corrode.
