-
hey guys thank you for joining me for another episode in this episode we're
-
gonna tackle plastic guttering do we recommend plastic guttering just to put
-
it right out there we 100% do not recommend plastic guttering and the
-
reason why we don't recommend plastic guttering it's not really a material
-
that's going to last listen guys the only time you'll see plastic guttering
-
on a home is if the homeowner did a DIY didn't really have the right information
-
or maybe he searched through YouTube and found all these videos on how to install
-
plastic guttering and how good the guttering is you will never find a
-
professional gutter installer installing plastic guttering it's either gonna be
-
like I said a DIY er that doesn't really have the right information and like I
-
said if you ever see that plastic guttering on a home it was from a DIY er
-
or just a guy a jack-of-all-trades just doing an installation not really a
-
trained gutter professional a gutter professional will never install plastic
-
guttering it's not really worth it when you can get aluminum great gutter
-
seamless installed on your home if you search through my channel you'll find
-
plenty of videos on installing gutters downspouts and also where to get the
-
material for that act if your going to get a gutter installation it would be
-
best to do it right the first time now these are the samples I have here this
-
is one of the plastic downspouts that you'll receive and as you can see now
-
this was installed this was something we removed from an insulation that was
-
installed you know for about five years now
-
the homeowner said that gutters never really worked properly they kind of drug
-
it out because they did a DIY and they spent a good amount of money on
-
installing it themselves and that's usually what you'll find if you find
-
that plastic gutter installation you know like I said it was the homeowner
-
doing a DIY or a contractor installed it they spent the money they really don't
-
want to remove it because most times you'll find it they don't function right
-
off the bat first second third rain usually within the year you'll see that
-
the gutters really aren't what you're what you were looking for they don't
-
look good visually when they're done and the fact that they don't really function
-
a hundred percent properly within a year you got leaky seams gutters clogging
-
real easy alignment issues waters not draining properly it's really not the
-
way to go and then this is the gutter that you'll get
-
as you can see here now you can see the gutter kind of all stained up on the
-
inside because it was just always holding debris the customer said that it
-
just overflowed twelve months of the year
-
whether it was cleaned or not during a heavy rain it would just overflow so and
-
there's nothing but seams in this type of gutter I mean it's just now even a
-
seamless gutters gonna have seams but the amount of seams in this it's just
-
astronomical and it's almost impossible to keep them sealed so there are some of
-
the reasons why we don't recommend a plastic guttering in general it's just
-
not really a professional grade you know overall if we was to give that a rating
-
and be a one-star guys if you're looking to do a gutter installation you want to
-
do a DIY check out my channel if you're gonna do a DIY you're gonna want it done
-
professionally if you're a homeowner you're looking to hire a contractor
-
you're gonna want to make sure you get at least two to three quotes because the
-
thing is if you're going to get this insulation complete you'd be better off
-
doing it right the first time getting it done professionally no matter where
-
you're located where you're watching this video whether we service your area
-
or not you can contact a local gutter contractor the types of material you're
-
going to want to use I think if you really give this thought I think you can
-
see that the aluminum gutter is gonna be the type of gutter that you're gonna
-
want to get installed it's made to last 20 30 40 years it's going to be there if
-
it's properly maintained you can get the gutter in seamless runs a 20-foot run
-

-
get a seamless run with no seams in the gutter so the point is guys if you're
-

-
