Half round gutters require proper support to maintain their curved shape and prevent sagging. Spacer brackets distribute weight evenly across the fascia board, maintain proper water flow slope, and prevent the gutter from pulling away from the house. Without adequate support, gutters can sag, creating standing water that leads to overflow, ice dams, and structural damage.

Install spacer brackets every 24-30 inches for optimal support, with closer spacing (24 inches) recommended in areas with heavy snow loads. For a typical single-story home, you'll need 15-25 brackets per side. Two-story homes may require 30-50 brackets total. Always add extra brackets near downspouts and corners where stress is highest. Our 50-piece contractor box handles most residential projects.

Choose Black for modern homes or to match dark gutters and trim. Select Copper for premium homes with copper gutters or distinctive architectural styles - it develops a natural patina over time. Pick White to match white fascia, trim, or gutters for a clean, classic appearance. All finishes are weather-resistant and UV-stable, maintaining their appearance for decades.

While the brackets themselves are straightforward to install, gutter work requires working at height with proper ladder safety. Professional installation is strongly recommended for safety reasons and to ensure proper alignment, slope, and code compliance. Professionals have the right tools, safety equipment, and experience to guarantee optimal performance and warranty coverage.
