Part of our project will be to redo gutters and downspouts as well as

Figuring its old, moldy and dirty it has to be cleaned or nothing will
bond , muriatic acid will clean it, use a plastic broom to apply it
then hose it out, you need alot fresh air and a vapor respirator since
muriatic fumes. Hydraulic cement will work but wear plastic gloves or
you will get lime burn which can last all summer. If you have a sump
pump you should have drainage tile, look inside at the incomming
drain.
