Step-by-Step Installation Process

  1. Calculate Required Quantity: Measure total gutter length and divide by 2.5 feet (30 inches) to determine wedge count needed
  2. Mark Wedge Locations: Mark fascia board every 24-36 inches along the entire gutter run for consistent support
  3. Position First Wedge: Place wedge at highest point (opposite downspout end) with 25° angle compensating for fascia slope
  4. Secure with Fasteners: Drive galvanized screw or nail through pre-drilled hole into fascia board for permanent attachment
  5. Install Remaining Wedges: Continue spacing wedges 24-36 inches apart, maintaining consistent positioning
  6. Verify Slope: Use professional level to confirm 1/4 inch per 10 feet slope toward downspout location
  7. Mount Gutter System: Install gutter on wedges, ensuring proper alignment and secure attachment at all points
  8. Test Water Flow: Run water through system to verify proper drainage and adjust wedges if needed

⚠️ PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION STRONGLY RECOMMENDED

SAFETY WARNING: Gutter installation requires working at dangerous heights with proper safety equipment and professional expertise. NEVER work on ladders or roofs without OSHA-approved fall protection for work 6+ feet high. Professional contractors have proper equipment, insurance, liability coverage, and knowledge of building codes.

Improper installation can void warranties, create water damage, and result in costly repairs. Installation requirements may vary by region - always consult local building codes and consider hiring licensed professionals for safety and optimal results.

Frequently Asked Questions - All Objections Addressed

Why do I need gutter wedges for angled fascia boards? ▼
Angled or canted fascia boards (common on homes with 5 1/2 pitch roofs) cause gutters to tilt incorrectly when mounted directly to the fascia. This creates water pooling, prevents proper drainage toward downspouts, and leads to gutter sagging under weight. Professional 6" gutter wedges compensate for the fascia angle with a precision 25° slope, ensuring gutters remain perpendicular to the ground for optimal water flow. Without wedges, you'll experience standing water, mosquito breeding, ice dam formation, and eventual gutter failure requiring expensive repairs.
How many wedges do I need for my gutter installation? ▼
Install wedges every 24-36 inches along the gutter run for optimal support and slope maintenance. To calculate: measure your total gutter length in feet, multiply by 12 to get inches, then divide by 30 (average spacing). For example, a 100-foot gutter run would need approximately 40 wedges (100 × 12 ÷ 30 = 40). Our minimum order is 5 pieces, with volume pricing available for larger projects. Contact our Damascus location at 503-496-7017 for project-specific calculations and contractor pricing.
Which finish should I choose for my gutter system? ▼
Choose aluminum brown for brown gutter systems and residential applications where aesthetics matter. Select aluminum white for white or light-colored gutters and traditional home styles. Opt for galvanized steel when maximum strength is required for commercial applications, heavy snow loads, or extreme weather conditions. All three finishes offer excellent corrosion resistance and decades of reliable performance. You can mix finishes in the same order to match different gutter colors on multi-building projects.
Will these wedges work with my roof pitch? ▼
Our 6" professional wedges feature a 25° angle specifically designed for roof slopes of 5 1/2 pitch, which covers steeper residential properties throughout Oregon and the Pacific Northwest. If your roof has a significantly different pitch, you may need variable angle wedges or custom solutions. Contact our Damascus team with your roof pitch specifications, and we'll recommend the correct wedge angle for your specific application to ensure optimal gutter performance.
Can I install gutter wedges myself or do I need a professional? ▼
While gutter wedge installation is straightforward (mark locations, position wedges, secure with fasteners), the work requires operating on ladders at roof height, which carries significant safety risks. Professional installation is strongly recommended for safety, proper slope calculation, building code compliance, and warranty protection. Licensed contractors have OSHA-approved fall protection equipment, liability insurance, and expertise to ensure optimal results. Many homeowners choose professional installation to avoid injury risk and guarantee proper drainage performance. We can recommend experienced local installers if needed.
What's the difference between aluminum and galvanized steel wedges? ▼
Aluminum wedges are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and available in color-matched finishes (brown or white) that blend seamlessly with residential gutter systems. They're perfect for standard residential applications and easier to handle during installation. Galvanized steel wedges offer maximum structural strength and durability for commercial applications, heavy snow load areas, or situations requiring superior load-bearing capacity. Steel wedges cost slightly more but provide enhanced longevity in extreme conditions. Both materials withstand Pacific Northwest weather and offer decades of reliable performance.
How do wedges prevent gutter sagging? ▼
Gutter wedges provide critical structural support by distributing the weight of water, debris, and snow across a larger surface area of the fascia board. The 6-inch length creates a stable foundation that prevents stress concentration at single mounting points. When installed every 24-36 inches, wedges maintain consistent gutter alignment and prevent the sagging that occurs when gutters are mounted directly to angled fascia without proper support. This prevents gutter detachment, maintains proper drainage slope, and eliminates the need for costly repairs from structural failure.
What's the proper drainage slope for gutters? ▼
Building codes recommend a minimum slope of 1/4 inch per 10 feet of gutter run toward the downspout location. This translates to approximately 1/16 inch per foot. For longer gutter runs (over 40 feet), you may need a steeper slope or additional downspouts to ensure proper drainage. Professional contractors use levels and measuring tools to verify correct slope during installation. Our 6" wedges help achieve and maintain this critical slope by compensating for angled fascia boards, ensuring water flows efficiently toward downspouts without pooling or overflow.
Do gutter wedges meet building code requirements? ▼
Yes, professional-grade gutter wedges help ensure installations meet building code requirements for proper drainage slope and structural support. However, specific requirements vary by jurisdiction and local building departments. Some areas require permits for gutter installation, while others don't. We recommend consulting your local building codes and using licensed contractors familiar with regional requirements. Our Damascus team can provide guidance on Oregon building codes and connect you with qualified local installers who ensure code-compliant installations.
What's included with contractor direct pricing? ▼
Contractor pricing includes wholesale rates 30-55% off retail, technical support, project consultation, bulk pricing tiers, priority processing, and ongoing support. No contractor license required. Volume discounts: 5-piece minimum, 25-piece bundles save 30-45%, 50+ pieces save up to 55%. Call 503-496-7017 for custom quotes on large projects.
Can you provide technical support for my gutter project? ▼
Yes! Our team provides comprehensive support including quantity calculations, finish selection guidance, slope verification, and installation specifications. Visit our Damascus location or call 503-496-7017 for expert consultation.
What's your return policy for gutter wedges? ▼
30-day return policy on unopened packages in original packaging. Used/installed wedges are non-returnable unless defective. We provide immediate replacement for defective products and help calculate exact quantities to avoid over-ordering.
