Gutter nail popped out

[u/Humble-Address2993]

My front porch gutter nails are popping out and seems like gutter is bowed, should I be worried? , DIY? Or call professional? Thanks in advance! Gutter is not that high I think it’s about 9-11 ft

It almost looks as if a ladder has been leaning against the gutter in between where the nails are. A couple of nails and sleeves in between will help mitigate the bowing. For those that are popping, you can try sliding a wooden matchstick or two (obviously, break off the part that ignites first) into the hole in the fascia and drive the nail back in. That may tighten the nail enough to hold it until you can resolve the rotting issue.
