Looking for suggestions on securing part of the gutter that has started to separate from the (2024 Avenue 32RLS)trailer at a seam.

We had several stripped screws on our Valor rain gutter right when we got it.. Actually discovered this when we moved locations and the garage area had rusty-ish water bleeding down both sides of the interior wall from the ceiling. I took one of the screws to the hardware store and bought a box of the next size up, same length and checked all of them along the gutter, I put a dab of silicone in the screw hole of any of them I replaced.

Thank you, That’s kinda where I was but wasn’t 100% and trying to figure out why they would seam it together instead of using 1 solid strip..

Check everything, these things will make you rethink buying new. At least your water is still outside. I went out to see I had water raining in my slide in my 24 valor. Whatever they use to seal to horizontal bulb seal to the outside wall(horizontal across slide cut-out) is crap. I was told they are using silicone. Is this true, I took it off and it all came off in one piece. Now I have a ceiling to fix. Not pleased at all on a 1-1/2 year old unit. IMG_0158.jpeg
