Gutter Bracket Tool?

[mike-c]

Hi I have some plastic roundline gutter I want to replace. It's held in by plastic brackets that clips over the gutter like this. It looked like it would be pretty easy to unclip the old gutter however I'm finding the clips to be harder than expected, especially at the top of a ladder. Is there a tool for unclipping these? I can't seem to find anything online.

Cheers,
Mike

You could Mcgyver a tool from a 15cm or so length of wood with a large washer and spacer screwed/bolted onto it, like this :-

Alternatively, bash the end of a length of steel strip into a "u" shape.
Put tool over the top lip of the clip and gently lever downwards to raise the lip.

I just use a flat prybar/utility bar, I dont bother removing the gutter I just pry the lot off
in one go.
Push the gutter up under one of the brackets and you will see it lifts the bracket away
from the fascia, slide in your bar and prise it off.
