What are Gutter Guards?

Rain gutters are fairly simple and affordable considering the purpose they serve: protecting more valuable parts of your house. Gutters keep rain water off the wood or siding, windows, patio, deck and basement, directing it discreetly away from your home.

That means, anything that protects your gutters and helps them function even more efficiently is a good investment as well.

Gutter guards are an inexpensive product you can add to any style of gutters, and they work as a protective barrier for gutters so debris and pests won’t get inside of them. Purchasing gutter guards can be a money-saving decision that you’ll thank yourself for many years.

There are several types of gutter guard. The type you install depends on your available budget and the type of gutters you have. Gutter guards are made of aluminum, nylon or plastic.

Benefits of Gutter Guards

On average, gutter guards will cost around as much per linear foot as the gutters themselves. In the long run, you will save time and money installing them. Here are some of the reasons we encourage you to install gutter guards on your home:

Improve Drainage by Preventing Clogs – Gutter guards keep leaves and debris out of your gutters. Otherwise larger pieces of debris settle in the gutter first, then smaller pieces collect around them. Of all the many gutter guard models, all of them stop these larger pieces of debris from becoming stuck to start with.

Reduce Mold & Mildew Growth – Gutter guards allow water to flow through the gutters faster since it isn’t blocked by large debris. Water is one of the primary reasons for mold and mildew growth, therefore moving the water faster through the gutters reduces the amount of time rain remains sitting still, possibly leading to mold and mildew.

Prevent Pests from Nesting – Keeping squirrels, chipmunks, birds and insects out of gutters and off the roof can be a constant struggle. Every type of gutter guard prevents animals from crafting nests inside of the gutter. A lot of homeowners choose to install gutter guards for this reason alone.

Gutter Cleaning Less Often – Gutter guards need to be removed to clean the gutters, but when they are present, this job won’t have to be done as often. Leaf guards can cut down the frequency that you need to clean gutters – or hire a professional to do the job for you – so that you might only have to have them cleaned only once a year.

Protection From Fires – A typical way fires spread to homes is if embers fall inside of gutters where there is dry debris. This debris gives the fire fuel until it becomes too large and damages the roof, and then the rest of the house. A simple gutter guard installation can protect your home from the risk of fire.

Prevent Ice Dams – If you happen to live in an area that gets below-freezing temperatures, snow and sleet, you’ll be interested to know that gutter guards help stop snow and ice from staying up on your roof. Their unique designs purposefully redirect melting ice and snow to get it off your roof much faster.

These are all issues that affect hundreds of thousands of American homes each year. Gutter guards protect an important system that protects the rest of your house. If you’ve never thought about installing them before, it may be time to think about it.

Professional Gutter Guard Installation

You can see, there are several benefits of gutter guards. While it might be tempting to go out and purchase the type you think will be the best – how different could they be, right? – you still have to install them properly. Ultimately, you’re much better off having a professional gutter guard installation service do the project for you.

Not only will their installation be more reliable than your DIY work, but a gutter guard service and installer is going to be able to suggest the best type of gutter for your home in the first place. They are familiar with all of the options, and they will consider each factor in detail when making their recommendation.

Here are a few of the things a gutter guard company will think about when determining the perfect gutter guards for your home:

Material – Gutter guards can be made of aluminum, plastic, foam or a handful of different materials. Some are designed for temporary usage while others are built to last as long as your gutters will. The construction is a key factor in how long the gutter guards will last.

Installation method – The type of gutter guards we would recommend for a homeowner to install themselves is the drop in kind that do not require fastening to the gutters. However, these are not as dependable. Installing the other types, including snap-in and screw-on gutter guards, could damage your rain gutters if they are not installed correctly.

Appearance – A lot of gutter guards offer a low profile so they aren’t visible from ground level, while some styles are very obvious. If that is an important condition, you will be limited on the style of gutter guard you can install, and limited even more by the style of gutters you have on your home. If it is very important for you to have low profile gutter guards, it may be necessary to buy new gutters too.

Warranty – Many gutter guard styles will come with a short manufacturer’s warranty, however most of the aluminum models are guaranteed to last for at least 10-20 years. By having a licensed gutter guard installer in Leominster (instead of doing it on your own), you won’t void the warranty. Gutter guards should never lift your shingles, nor should their installation void your roof’s warranty.

Another great thing about having All Pro Gutters install your gutter guards is that we’ll come back and repair them free of charge if there is any issue related to the installation.

Your budget is, of course, the last factor in determining which gutter guards you will have installed. We offer a wide range of options for every budget, and will provide the benefits listed above, to one degree or another.
