Abstract: A gutter piece and a method of forming the gutter piece including the steps of: obtaining a gutter forming apparatus with a marking subassembly; obtaining a supply of gutter material; through the gutter forming apparatus, progressively forming the gutter material into completed gutter pieces, each with a length, as the gutter material is advanced in a forming path; and through the subassembly, continuously making discrete visible marks on the gutter material as the gutter material is advanced that: a) reside at predetermined intervals along a length of each of the completed gutter pieces, and b) are located to facilitate controlled interval placement of hangers that are used to support the completed gutter pieces in an operative position on a structure.

Abstract: The combination of a building roof section and a flashing repositioning apparatus. The roof section has an upwardly facing surface, with an edge at which there is a fascia, and a depending flashing portion. The flashing repositioning apparatus has a flashing engaging assembly and a manipulating assembly. The flashing engaging assembly has a body defining a wedging surface and a guide surface. The guide surface is configured to be consistently located in a predetermined operative position against the fascia surface wherein the wedging surface is at a predetermined angle relative to the fascia surface. The wedging surface resides between the fascia surface and the flashing portion to define a gap into which a wall of a gutter can be directed.

Abstract: A gutter hanger having a mounting portion to be secured to a building frame and a support portion to engage a gutter in an operative position on the building frame. The mounting portion has first and second legs joined together to define an upwardly opening “U” shape to receive a depending flashing portion with the mounting portion secured to a building frame.
