The corners of my gutters are leaking and I would like to know how to repair them. Should I clean gutters first and then do the repair to the corners?

Butyl rubber or gutter caulk. Flex Seal is great for a quick temporary fix but will not last. It breaks down, tends to flake, and wash away over time.

  Thanks, you are so right, I did use the Flex Seal and here I am again a year or so later. I will try the gutter caulk or Butyl rubber. What ever they have at the hardware store.
