Leaf Protection Key Benefits
Below are some of the leaf protection products we offer. Call for pricing.
Specialty products - These work better than standard products to keep Twigs, pine needles, and other small debris out of your gutter. Mounts directly to the gutter. No lifting shingles. Virtually undetectable from the ground.
Standard Products - These products are mostly made just to keep leafs out of your gutters.
Clips on to the front bead of the gutter. Installs in 3' lengths.
Installs by snapping the 3' sections on to the front edge of the gutter. No screws necessary.
The hinges clip to the front of the gutter. This type of leaf protection is very easy to remove in case any small debris gets past the screen.
Reviews - Most of these products we would not recommend. Most of these are to pricy and cause problems for home owners after install.
Installs to the front of the gutter and under the first row of shingles. The problem with this product is that 1 - 2 years after installation the slits get filled with junk and the product stops working altogether.
These are a one piece system that has a reverse curve on the top. The system is very hard to clean out when debris gets in the gutter. (the entire system must be unscrewed and taken off the fascia) Not recommended for winter use.
This helmet is attached to the roof under the shingle with a big bracket. We do not recommend this as it could cause roofing issues and winter time blues.
This is an easy system for the do-it-yourselfer but does not work very well, once enough debris gets stuck to the brush its all over. Also its not very easy to clean.
This systems works ok but there is a problem with their nylon filter deteriorating after about a year.
This system lets water in ok but also lets birds, bee's and debris in as well. The system is too expensive and hard to clean the gutters out if debris gets in. Also bad for winter unless buying their heated system.
Systems like this are known to cause mold and make the gutter overflow. Imagine if you had a half full glass of water and put a big sponge inside it, and then added more water.
There are many more products on the market but these are some of the main ones companies will try to sell you, we will add more to our list soon. |
