Why Should You Think of Installing Gutters with Leaf Guards?

The importance of leaf guards is often overlooked. A lot of people tend to install new gutters only to avoid the installation of leaf guards either because of the price, or simply because they don’t know that it’s necessary. Roofing East Lansing experts agree, however, that the use of leaf guards can help protect your gutter system and your roof in the long run.

 

Gutters are essentially designed to be a simple drainage system for rainwater. As rain falls on your roof, the rainwater has to go somewhere, and if you don’t have a gutter system it will basically just drip down your walls and into the foundation of the house. Water damage is a frequent problem in such cases, and sometimes it can cost tens of thousands of dollars to restore the foundation and make it sturdy again.

 

Roofers and gutter experts recommend leaf guards because they act as a kind of filter to prevent debris from clogging your gutters. Without the use of a well-designed set of leaf guards, your gutters could end up being clogged by small branches and leafs, as well as materials that birds use for their nests. The result could include pooling and early damage to your gutters, so the installation of gutter guards should be considered a healthy investment in the long run.

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!
