Are Leaf Guards Worth Installing?

Contents

roof gutter systems leaf guards

Leaf guards are affordable, simple and ingenious devices that protect your gutters and ensure their efficiency. The idea behind leaf guards is simple: when the U-shaped or brush-like guards are placed inside the gutter pipe, they prevent the accumulation of debris and the formation of clogs by collecting the debris and preventing any material, except clean water, from getting into the gutter pipe. Here are a few thoughts that can help you decide whether leaf guards are worthwhile, indeed:

  • Varied and cheap – gutter guards come in many forms, some are very simple and look like a long piece of sponge, others a bit more complex, so you can easily find the variety that is suitable for your gutters. However, all gutter guards share one feature: they are affordable;
  • Prolonged life for your gutter and water damage prevention for your home – gutter clogs prevent the gutter from doing its job. If the pipe cannot direct water away from your building, the water can ruin your roof, your walls, even your foundation. Gutter guards can prevent all these issues;
  • Easy installation and cleaning – most gutter guards are installed simply by being placed into the gutter pipe. Cleaning the guards is equally easy: no scraping is involved, all you need to do is to remove the guard and shake off the debris that has accumulated on them.  Professional roofing companies like https://www.roofonemichigan.com/port-huron-mi-roofing-experts.html offer gutter installation as well as gutter guards.

Professional, Knowledgeable, and stress free is how I would describe my experience with Roof One. From first call, a representative actually answers the phone with a friendly welcome. Jason was prompt and quick to come out and give a detailed consultation. Antonio’s crew was amazing! Not only were they on time, but a few minutes early. They made sure to walk me through the process and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Scott helped work with my insurance adjuster and went out of his way to make sure I was completely satisfied. Bill and Sandra in the office treated me like family and Steve, the owner, was very kind and welcomed me to the Roof One family. Phenomenal Job Roof One, my family and I couldn’t be happier - Thank you!

From the beginning to the end, Roof one really impressed me regarding their professionalism when roofing my house. In particular Steve and Mark managed this job wonderfully. The crew they sent over did such a wonderful quality job and made sure my property was free of nails and debris. I would definitely hire this company for a roof job. Very straight forward with their prices and options. I was also grateful they hooked up vent fans and provided a gorgeous flashing for my large chimney. Good job guys! Wish there were more contractors like you!
