Leaf Protection & Gutter Guards

When they're clogged, water can't flow through them effectively, resulting in:

Roof Damage:

Water can back up under roof shingles, causing leaks and deterioration.

Siding Damage:

Overflowing gutters can lead to water running down the sides of your home, potentially causing siding damage and mold growth.

Foundation Issues:

Excess water pooling around the foundation can lead to cracks and structural damage over time.

Landscape Erosion:

Overflowing water can erode soil, damage plants, and lead to uneven ground.

Pretty scary stuff! Let’s just say, what you invest in a good gutter system comes back to you in a big way.

How Do Gutter Guards Work?

Gutter guards come in various designs and materials, each tailored to meet specific needs and environmental conditions. 

Some common types include:

1. Mesh Gutter Guards: These guards feature a fine mesh or screen that covers the top of the gutter, allowing water to pass through while blocking larger debris. This fine mesh that can block even the smallest debris while allowing water to pass through. They're highly effective but can be on the pricier side and may require professional installation.

2. Reverse Curve/Surface Tension Guards: Also known as helmet-style guards, these cover the gutter with a curved surface that directs rainwater into the gutter while leaves and debris fall over the edge. They're highly effective but more expensive and typically require professional installation.

3. Foam Gutter Guards: Made of high-density foam, these guards fit snugly inside the gutter, allowing water to flow through while trapping debris on top. These foam inserts fit directly into the gutter, allowing water to soak through while blocking debris. They're easy to install but may require more frequent maintenance to remove small particles that can accumulate over time.

4. Brush Gutter Guards: These consist of large bristles that sit inside the gutters, allowing water to flow through while catching debris. They're easy to install but may not be as effective at preventing smaller debris from entering the gutters.

5. Screen Gutter Guards: These guards cover the gutter with a metal or plastic screen that allows water to pass through while blocking larger debris. Screen guards are relatively easy to install and are an affordable option.

What’s the Best Gutter Guard System For You?

The best gutter guard for your home depends on several factors, including the types of trees surrounding your property, your budget, and whether you prefer a DIY or professional installation. 

Consider the following when making your choice

Tree Coverage:

Homes surrounded by pine trees may need guards that are effective at blocking small needles, such as micro-mesh or foam guards.

Budget:

Screen and brush guards offer a more budget-friendly option, while surface tension and micro-mesh guards are investments that offer greater protection but at a higher cost.

Maintenance:

All gutter guards require some maintenance, but some types, like foam and brush guards, may need more frequent attention to remain effective.
