Can bent or dented gutters be straightened? Repaired in any way?
Aluminum gutters cannot really be straightened, except for really minor dents. For most really bent gutters we try various work-arounds in order to get gutter covers securely fastened onto them. Unfortunately, seriously bent gutters have to be replaced before guards can be installed (or the guards cannot fasten on tightly enough). Typically, we cut out the bent section and splice in a new, straight piece, instead of replacing the entire gutter, which would obviously be more expensive to do. Naturally, for additional work such as this, there is an extra charge over and above our low prices for gutter guards.
