I'm trying to figure out how to take these gutter guards off. I can lift the top side upwards over the shingles, but the bottom lip that's attached to the gutters feels extremely stuck. I've even taken off the flashing at the edge of the gutter hoping that would help, but no luck so far. Any tips?

So, I had a similar issue, and I managed to get one off by using a pry bar. I had to really crank on it until it broke in a few spots, but it came free. Just a heads-up, though; it was damaged beyond reuse. Is there a gentler way to do this?
Hey! It sounds like your gutter guards are usually just held in place by screws at the ends and sometimes a few along the front lip. Have you checked if there might be hidden screws? It can be tricky! Also, if they’re really stuck, you might want to try using a little more force to pry them off carefully, just watch out not to damage the gutters.
Yeah, I haven't spotted any screws, but I think they're secured under the lip. I'll take a closer look around!
