ABSTRACT:
A pivotal rain gutter facilitates easy cleaning thereof. In one embodiment the device has a hinge assembly which is secured to a structural support. A trough is secured to the hinge assembly using a single fastener. The trough is also supported by a retaining strap which is secured to the structural support and may be engaged and disengaged from the trough. The trough may thereby be pivoted down for ease of cleaning. A pole effector facilitates engaging and disengaging of the retaining strap. A flexible downspout allows the gutter to be pivoted up and down without disconnecting the downspout.
