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

you can get it in seamless 30 foot run 40 foot we're on 100 foot run you can

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

going to get a gutter installation do we recommend the plastic gutter it not a

recommended gutter installation we just went over the main reason why we don't

recommend it but the whole point is if you're gonna do that gutter installation
