Keeping Your Home Safe from Water Damage: Should You Invest in Gutter Screens?

Contents

While they aren’t mandatory, gutter screens can give you an excellent solution to the age-old problem of having to replace old gutters too often, or needing to keep them in check by performing routine cleaning and maintenance work 2-3 times per year. In fact, most of the licensed roofers experienced in roofing Commerce MI homes highly recommend them.  The question is, would it actually be worth the expense to have gutter screens installed?

The cost of gutter screens per square foot can be as little as $1-$3 for materials only and up to $30 per square foot, if you choose some of the highest quality products on the market. As a result, the range you can consider will differ depending on the quality and durability of the materials, the complexity and difficulty of the installation job and the size of your home.

 

Of course, living in an area with problematic weather conditions will also involve a greater necessity for better quality gutter screens. In such cases it is worth to invest as much as $2,000 or $3,000 per installation, since the alternative would be to leave your home exposed to severe water damage over the course of a limited amount of time.

 

If you feel having new, top quality gutter screens installed by a professional might be too expensive, one option would be to install them yourself. A DIY job may be somewhat difficult, but it can save you $2 to $12 per foot in the case of aluminum gutter screens and even more if you choose screens with mesh filters, surface tension solid covers or custom combination gutters/covers.

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!
