I hope you guys get paid bye the hour and not bye the foot, cuz that took way too long. And use zip screws rivets take too long and what about a repair? Good luck trying to save the spout.
jason should probably buy a tape! Not that his weird hand movement isent accurate. How did you talk a homeowner into a 3 by 4 DS on a one story ranch. its also a bad idea to polk like six holes in something that shouldent leak. ten and an eighth to make a strap that fastens on the outside.
Besides aesthetics, rivets are also more sensible as they prevent snagging debris on the inside of the downspout (unlike screws) assuring a consistent free flow.
Thanks for the comment. But rivets look and hold better than a quarter inch screw, especially in the corners of the gutter. Also we use those kinds of straps because they hold the downspout to the wall better than any other strap weve found in the past 30 years. When we install a downspout they are there to stay, so if you have to paint the siding or trim we would need to come out and take them down.
If I saw you using rivets and not screws and those kind of straps on my place I'd be pretty pissed. You're also making it extremely difficult for any painter to take down your downspouts to paint siding/trim.
@kayem25 rivets hold better. painters should have done there job before things needed painting. lol, and also painters then should learn how a 1/8 th drill bit on a economy cordless tool works to easily remove rivets. most steel screws are rusted and beyond turning out anyways. if you'd be pissed on how this guy did it you'd be asking for a poor job.
Would you need to use a plump line to line up the brackets on multistory houses?

Rivets are way better!!! Only reason ppl use screws is because they don't have a rivet tool

Nice install, very clean! my only comment is depending on the grade of the soil, I would run the downspout away fron the house about a foot or two.

That was fast! I prefer aluminum myself but hey, I suppose plastic works too :/

@Imdill3 Thank you for the comment. We prefer aluminum gutter as well. In the video the downspouts being installed are aluminum not plastic.

@RainGuardofTulsa oh i see the middle interior of it now, It honestly looked like plastic/pvc with how the screws went in!
