I'm a 65 y/o old school carpenter. You need to do a video showing home DIYers how to properly hang gutters when the roofers didn't seat the drip edge tight against the fascia so it is vertical and not on a 10-15 (or 90-95) degree angle on the fascia. Since in most cases the drip edge cannot be easily removed, the only best solution is to use a small hammer to put a dent into the drip edge so when the hangers go on, they don't let the gutter sag by the same 10-15 degree angle and cause roof run-off, etc. You can also use a small 2x2 block of wood and hit that with a small hammer to create a square dent in the drip edge. In the worst case scenario, I've had to use snips to make vertical cuts on the fascia drip edge and then used a small hammer to create a small dent and allow the hangers to pull the top of the gutters level to the ground or 90 degrees from the fascia board. A lot of roofers make this mistake and don't push the drip edge tight against the fascia & create the angle that causes the gutters to sag improperly.

I have an angled fascia. When I put the first gutter length up, I knew there was a problem. Spraying water on the roof with a hose to test the angle showed some water missing the gutter completely. The T-Wedge idea is what I was looking for. Thanks!

Hands down T-wedge is an truly universal support system, my distributer stopped stocking them and produces thier own now. I buy direct from Truss, far as pre-loaded hangers go I was always told "keep your spikes up and ferrul seams down" yeah if you know your old ha!. That being said a fastener that goes downhill towards fascia and eve is the last thing you want in a gutter.

Any reason you prefer the hangers without the clips instead of the other ones? I feel like the hangers with clips support the gutter much better when in the process of hanging.

To be honest, if a gutter contractor is looking for ways to work around dry rot, they should not be hired in the first place--customer be damned. There are too many contractors so eager to pull in a few green backs, they sell their souls and ignore issues with the home. Even if at the behest of the customer, they should just walk away from the job.

How about hanging gutters from a metal roof with standing seams? No fascia to attach to. Suggestions?

Shouldn’t a hanger be screwed into the rafter tail, or does it really matter at 20 inches?

As long as you have healthy 2x6 facia it holds great

When using the Hangfast Hanger it appears most gutter guards will not work , due to the height. Is there a guard that would fit over this hanger?

They make a hangfast gutter guard especially designed to go over the screw in the hanger

Copper gutters? If you hung copper in Australia you'd wake up to find them stolen. You can fetch $10 per kilo to scrap it here. Great video though!

Why would anyone want an angled fascia? Not worth the trouble.
