Rebuild the structure before re-hanging gutters. Done right the first time.
Wood rot under failing gutters is one of the most under-treated problems on Westwood homes. We don't paint over it, mount new gutters on it, or pretend it isn't there. We cut it out, replace it with primed, paint-grade material, and rebuild the surface for a proper gutter install.
