A gutter debris preclusion device for use with a gutter attached to a building, comprising a support structure being substantially rigid and having a recess with a plurality of apertures and a plurality of ribs; a screen having a plurality of apertures and being at least partially disposed on the ribs of the support structure; and, wherein a cross-sectional profile of the screen has an arc shape.

A roofing debris collection apparatus having one or more gutter liners constructed to fit in an interior of a gutter to collect roofing debris; one or more debris chute drapes; and one or more drape support poles to maintain the debris chute drapes in a vertical angled orientation adjacent the gutter to guide roofing debris from a roof to the ground. Roofing debris is allowed to accumulate in the gutter liners or to fall off the roof on to the debris chute drapes and to slide from the debris chute drapes onto a tarp on the ground. The roofing debris is collected and removed by collecting the gutter liners from the gutter and gathering the tarp from the ground. The roofing debris collection apparatus allows for rapid collection and removal of roofing debris and protects the sides of a building from any damage that might be caused by the collection of roofing debris.

The invention is a tiltable bracket assembly for a rain gutter of a building, the assembly including an elongate clip configured to engage with an edge of the rain gutter; and a support bracket, wherein the support bracket includes a vertical element and a horizontal element, wherein the horizontal element including a hinged flap for a base of the rain gutter; characterized in that the vertical element of the support bracket includes a track for the elongate clip, and wherein the horizontal element of the support bracket includes a slot for the elongate clip. The elongate clip is configured to slide along the vertical element of the support bracket to engage and disengage with the upper rear edge of the rain gutter. When disengaged, the flap can be articulated to facilitate the pivotal movement of the rain gutter. This allows the gutter to be easily emptied or cleared of leaves or snow of the like as required.

Fastening support devices and systems for hanging half round gutter include engagement portions for internal engagement with the front and rear of a gutter. A rear face of the device may be configured to provide support to a curved rear gutter wall, such as the rear wall of a half round gutter. The rear face may include a substantially vertical upper portion adjacent a curved lower portion. A support body of the device may include a substantially planar lower surface, two or more internal supports projecting upwardly from the lower surface, and one or more thin walls interconnecting the internal supports and the lower surface. These features provide structural rigidity to the device and support the gutter to resist bending under heavy loads. Additional features of the device provide ease of installation and improved aesthetics of the overall gutter system.

The invention relates to a device for fixing a gutter to a building construction, and a building construction with such a device, the device comprising: a fixing member for arranging fixedly on the building construction; a support member releasably connectable to the fixing member for supporting the gutter, the support member comprising two connecting elements extending at an angle to each other, wherein: a first connecting element of the two connecting elements is configured to be connected releasably to the fixing member and extends substantially parallel to the building construction, andthe second connecting element is configured to be connected to the gutter and extends substantially vertically. The invention further relates to a building construction with a number of such devices, and to such a fixing member and support member.

An assembly for covering a gutter is disclosed which comprises a mounting member for attachment to a fascia or rafter or the like (10; 100) and a cover member (50) for covering and enclosing a gutter. The mounting member provides upper (22; 120) and lower (34;117) engagement means for engagement with corresponding engagement means (58, 62) defined in ends of the cover member. The engagement means of the mounting member include at least one gap or a space defined between two spaced walls for receiving a generally v-shaped end of the cover and at least one of the walls defines a flange/stop for engaging with the end of the cover for retaining the end of the cover between the walls. The cover will typically be formed from a material such as rolled steel, which may be coated painted or otherwise treated so as to be rust-resistant. The engagement means for the cover will typically be a generally v-shaped bend in one end of the over which engages in the slot by compression of the sides of the v together then expansion to engage in the gap/space. The bracket (10) may be generally planar and attach to a fascia board of a roof defining apertures for receiving fasteners in its front face for attachment to the fascia board. Alternatively the bracket (110) may define an attachment plate oriented at an angle of about 90 to the front face of the bracket for attachment directly to rafter, thus obviating the need for a fascia board.

A gutter debris preclusion device for use with a gutter attached to a building, comprising a support structure being substantially rigid and having a recess with a plurality of apertures and a plurality of ribs; a screen having a plurality of apertures and being at least partially disposed on the ribs of the support structure; and, wherein a cross-sectional profile of the screen has an arc shape.

Flashing for use at the edge of roofs or decks that are provided with surface materials are presented. In exemplary embodiments, flashing may be provided at the edge of a roof to retain or provide an edge treatment for an aesthetic and functional surface material, such as, for example, a cast paver, while at the same time allowing for water drainage. In one embodiment, a piece of flashing material contains a leg that is fastened along the edge of the top of a flat roof. This embodiment continues into two legs that form a V-shaped trough which comes off the roofing membrane and has penetrations at the bottom to release water. The outer leg of the V most commonly extends to a level higher than the roofing membrane in order to make contact with and edge an installed surface material. Various other shapes and end treatments, including various embodiments providing both an edge flashing as well as an integrated rectangular shaped gutter-like trough are also presented.

The invention is a tiltable bracket assembly for a rain gutter of a building, the assembly including an elongate clip configured to engage with an edge of the rain gutter; and a support bracket, wherein the support bracket includes a vertical element and a horizontal element, wherein the horizontal element including a hinged flap for a base of the rain gutter; characterised in that the vertical element of the support bracket includes a track for the elongate clip, and wherein the horizontal element of the support bracket includes a slot for the elongate clip. The elongate clip is configured to slide along the vertical element of the support bracket to engage and disengage with the upper rear edge of the rain gutter. When disengaged, the flap can be articulated to facilitate the pivotal movement of the rain gutter. This allows the gutter to be easily emptied or cleared of leaves or snow of the like as required.
