Troubleshooting

Ensure the gutter sections are properly aligned with the insertion marks and that the retaining clip is fully engaged. Check and replace if necessary, the rubber seal.

The bracket is not securely fixed.

Check that the screws are fully tightened. If the fascia board is damaged, consider replacing the section or using longer screws to ensure a secure fix.
