I'm supposed to be taking down some gutters at my grandmother's house. Any tips on uninstalling i should know? tools i should have when i begin?

@AnnihalationonaStick We just use a hammer and a pair of tin snips to remove. However we do not save the pieces. If you are reusing then you could clench stubborn spikes(if thats what its fastened with) with vice grips and tap them out. Good luck!

@etchbars Not so strong, just loose materials. You can find these hangers at Lowes or Home Depot or some similar place. Thanks for commenting, good question!
