Why Gutter Guards Are a Good Investment

Many of us love the seasons of autumn and winter with the exception of having to constantly clean out the gutters. If you slack on this one house chore you can be looking at a lot of worse problems as the seasons progress. Not only do clogged gutters simply look and smell bad they tend to cause a lot of problems as the weather starts to get colder. If they are not cleaned on a regular basis, once the rain comes and they have no way of draining it turns into a serious issue.

This whole scenario can be avoided by using gutter guards. There are many types of Appleton gutter guards available on the market, however, the Gutterglove brand is perhaps the most popular and well-known as it has the ability to fit many types of gutters.

Gutter guards are the perfect solution for homeowners as they remove the need for constant gutter cleaning. These easily fit over the current gutters and act as a way to filter out all the debris that would typically clog up the gutters. The gutter guards are not an eyesore on the home either as they can barely be noticed. They slip over your current gutters without the need for any type of modifications.

Best Gutter Guard & Gutter Protection

If you have been looking to protect your home, you may have read up on metal gutter guards, rainfall gutter guards, waterfall gutter guards. The mesh on the gutter guards is fine enough to filter off such objects like pine needles, leaves, seed pods, and grit from the roof. To find the best gutter guards you will want to look for something with a light material like anodized aluminium. This type of material will keep debris out of the gutter without creating additional stress on the gutter system.

There are many cheap gutter systems on the market that have a simple, thin frame. While this may sound like a good idea there is actually a risk of the frame collapsing or falling into the gutter. If you have a gutter guard that is collecting all the debris is it no better than having the debris fall directly into the gutter. The gutter needs to be able to hold a pitch well that is not going to droop. It needs to be able to hold its shape well and fit the roof as well.

It is best to have a thickness of .03 to .1 of an inch, depending on the amount of debris you typically encounter a season. While it is always good to have a thicker frame it is a necessity if you deal with a large amount of pine needles, leaves, and other debris. In addition, thicker guards tend to have a much longer lifespan.

The heavier guards will help support the mesh which ensures that debris is not getting into your gutters. While browsing for gutter guards try to find one that is created from a stainless steel material so it will not rust even in the worst of weather conditions. Remember that the thinner the mesh is the more likely it will corrode and decay over time.

Are They Worth the Cost?

The experts at HGTV believe that gutter guards are most definitely worth the cost. With gutter guards, you will not need to climb up onto your roof to clean your gutters regularly throughout the year – this saves you time, and reduces the risk of you suffering injury. It also means that you don’t have to worry about the financial cost of repairing your roof if things go wrong. But you should know that gutter guards are not completely maintenance free – you will need to clean them occasionally. The good news is that if you choose the right type, thickness and pitch then you will find that you can go a long time between cleanings, so the maintenance burden will be minimal.

If you are going to buy them, make sure that you get them professionally fitted. This will ensure that you don’t end up with seeds and debris caught in your gutter, requiring more cleaning. A good professional fitting service will install your guards at the same pitch as your roof, ensuring maximum run-off, keeping your gutters clear and free.

If you opt for an ice-preventing gutter guard, choose one with just one cable – that is all you need to melt ice, and it will minimize the amount of power consumed throughout the year. Gutter guards can look expensive, but the total cost of ownership is minimal compared to the effort that they will save you  long term.

Stop Ice Dams As Well!

In addition to stopping a build-up of leaves and debris, a top leaf filter can also stop ice from forming in your gutter. There are high-end gutter guards that are equipped with a single, low energy usage heat cable that will stop ice from forming in the first place – or melt ice that is already there, stopping it from expanding and damaging your gutter.

Look for a gutter guard that has  a strong support frame that can be installed in the kind of gutter you have (not all gutter guards will fit a copper gutter well). An anodized aluminium channel frame will last for a long time and resist corrosion.

Choosing the Right Ice Dam Solution

While general purpose guards will do a decent job, the more specialist Leaf Blaster or Ice Breaker guards have a clear audience of homeowners, and it could be worth choosing one of those specialist models if you live in an area where ice is a problem or there are a lot of falling leaves at certain times of the year.

The LeafBlaster range in particular is interesting because of the unique design which slips under the roof shingles. The guard rests on the top of the roof deck or your tar paper, and clamps the gutter guard in place, keeping it stable. The guard is designed to match the pitch of the roof, ensuring that leaves flow over the top of it, not collecting and causing problems with your gutter.
