ABSTRACT:
A sealing arrangement for a rainwater gutter assembly is disclosed which acts to substantially prevent the passage of water between a gutter of the assembly and its generally adjacent supporting surface. The sealing arrangement comprises a unitary, elongated sealing strip including a flexible sealing lip portion adapted to sealingly engage the associated surface, and a joining portion adapted to receive an upper edge portion of the gutter. Notably, the sealing strip preferably comprises a co-extrusion of materials exhibiting differing flexibility. In this manner, the sealing lip of the strip is formed of a relatively flexible material, while the joining portion of the strip preferably comprises a relatively rigid material.
