When it comes to gutter installation, you don’t only need to consider the material, color and style, but also the kind of fasteners that will be used for the system. Fasteners secure gutters onto your home, and they are essential to the functionality of your drainage system.

Different Types of Gutter Hanger Systems

Brackets and Straps

Contractors usually secure half-round gutters with brackets and straps. They are wrapped around the gutters and secured to the fascia board to provide added support and strength to the structure. This hanger system is ideal for areas that experience constant weather shifts as they expand and contract with no issues. However, you must carefully clean them to avoid knocking them off.

Hidden Hangers 

Hidden hangers are the most preferred kind among contractors. Installers place them horizontally inside the gutter and screw them into the fascia board. Hidden hangers complement K-style gutters, which is the most popular gutter profile in the U.S. These hangers look more appealing than obvious spikes, and they can handle a lot of water with no issues. They also provide extra support and stability to gutters, which is beneficial in rainy areas. With an efficient gutter system, you can avoid significant exterior and roof repair costs.

Spikes and Ferrules

With this hanger system, the spike is driven into a ferrule or metal tube across the gutter. It ends at the back of the gutter and fastens the gutter into the fascia board. Sometimes, when the spike is inserted into the fascia, the wood splits and gets damaged. These gutter hangers are also exposed to constant free and thaw cycles, causing gutters to expand and contract, and loosen the spikes from the fascia.

No hassles, no stress roofing contractor.

We've worked with a number of contractors over the years doing home improvement projects and I can say that, without question, working with Pressure Point was about as easy as it gets.

Everything about the project, from sales all the way to final inspection, went like clockwork and without a hitch.  They delivered more than they promised, on time and within budget.   We could not have been happier with their personnel, products and services.  Highly recommended!

I've changed my review from a 1 star to a 4 stars. Matt Stone got right on a pretty poor job done installing a skylight. He had his guys remove the skylight, move it, repair the roof and inside ceiling to its original state, paint it, repair some external trim that was damaged, and all within a few days after talking to him about the multiple problems. It was really an eyesore from the inside. I'd give a 5 star if this had been done well the first time. The skylight just didn't fit the space I first wanted it and was told it would. More communication about the potential problems might have allowed this to be done right the first time. But, Pressure Point Roofing gets 5 starts for making amends and correcting a pretty ugly problem, very fast! Thank you.

I needed someone to come out to take a look at a leaky roof. I contacted Pressure Point Roofing, Inc. and they came out the same day. They gave me a quote to fix the problem and I agreed to their terms. It was about 4PM and I knew they closed at 5PM but they stayed and fixed the leak at no additional cost. I was very happy and impressed. Would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Pressure Point Roofing for earning our families trust. Will definitely be doing business with you again.

Wouldn't be good if I didn't think the best of my own company right?!

I am so happy I chose Pressure Point to replace my 40-year-old roof.  The crew was professional, efficient, and answered all my questions, addressed the few concerns I raised, and made me feel comfortable, trusting them with such a big project.  I couldn't be happier with their work and the look of my new roof.
