Why Gutter Protection?

A gutter’s job is to prevent damage to your home by diverting water away from it. Gutters can clog with debris, and clogged gutters can’t do their job. Gutter guards keep debris out, helping gutters perform properly. When you protect your gutters with high-quality gutter guards, you protect your home.

FIRE

Unprotected Gutters allow flammable debris, like dried leaves and twigs, to collect, creating a potential source of ignition and flame spread.

EROSION

Pooling water from overflowing gutters can displace soil and damage plants, detracting from a home's appearance.

CRACKING

Improper water control from overflowing gutters can erode soil, causing foundation materials to shift and potentially causing structural damage.

FLOODING

Water can seep and flood your basement when it runs off unprotected and clogged gutters.

INFESTATION

Clogged gutters create an ideal environment for invasive pests such as mosquitoes, wasps, and ants to nest.

Myth vs Reality

Myth

You don’t need gutter protection if you don’t have trees.

Leaves and debris often clog gutters, but birds, rodents, and insects can also contribute by nesting or leaving droppings. Wind and storms may bring additional dirt and debris. Installing gutter guards helps prevent these clogs and reduces the need for frequent cleaning, even in areas without trees. 

Myth

Gutter guards eliminate the need for gutter maintenance.

Gutter guards reduce debris but don’t eliminate maintenance, as they can’t block smaller particles like dirt, pollen, and roof grit. A great way to clean off your gutter guard (or any gutter guard) is using The Gutter Guard Brush. 

Myth

Gutter guards are only effective in certain climates.

Some homeowners mistakenly think gutter guards are only helpful in areas with heavy rainfall or many trees, but they benefit any climate. Even in drier regions, gutter guards prevent dust, dirt, and debris accumulation in gutters, reducing the need for frequent cleaning. 

Myth

Gutter guards are expensive and not worth the investment. 

Installing gutter guards initially costs money but saves in the long run by preventing clogs, reducing cleanings, and extending gutter lifespan. They also improve gutter efficiency, ensuring rainwater flows freely and reducing home water damage risks. 

Myth

Gutter guards are unsightly and decrease curb appeal.

Homeowners concerned about the look of gutter guards can find modern, discreet options that blend with their roofline and are virtually invisible from the ground. These designs protect effectively and enhance or maintain the home’s curb appeal. 

Myth

One product can do it all regardless of my home’s environment.   

Certain settings and climates are best served by specific solutions optimized for the conditionsConsidering debris loads, tree species, common pests, typical rainfall, filtration, and fire prevention will help you select the right coverage at the correct cost.
