Professional contractors universally recommend using screws (specifically heavy-duty hidden hangers with long, coarse-threaded screws) rather than traditional gutter spikes and nails. Nails tend to loosen over time due to the expanding weight of water, ice, and wind pressure, causing gutters to pull away from the fascia board. Screws bite deeply into the wooden framing behind the fascia, providing superior holding power, structural stability, and long-term durability.
