- To release a piece of guttering, hold the clip that’s keeping it in place and pull it towards you. Complete this on every clip that is securing the piece of gutter.
- Once you’ve released all the clips, push the gutter forwards so that it rolls out from the clips. The gutter should roll out easily.
- Before replacing the piece of gutter, ensure that the felt from the roof falls inside the new piece and is not left tucked behind.
- To install the new piece of guttering, insert the back edge first, up under the roofing tile. Then, spin the gutter back down in to position.
- Line up insertion marks in the fittings then pull the gutter down. The clips click into place and should secure the gutter.
