A
gutter liner is a tough synthetic
material that can be used to repair
small holes and to prolong the life
of your gutters. It installs easily.
However, if you are doing a long
section of gutter, you'll need some
time to move ladders and get
yourself into position. Always work
carefully.

| STEPS |
|
 |

|
Cut
a section of gutter liner material
to the desired length (cut it long
enough to fill the entire run, if
possible). For narrow gutters,
you'll need to trim the liner to the
proper width as well. Slip the liner
below the hangers, forming a
continuous trough. |
|
|
 |

|
Attach
downspout adapters and end caps or
corner pieces, following the
manufacturer's instructions.
Connections are usually made with a
special adhesive/caulk that the
manufacturer provides with the
liner. |
