FAQ

Gutter guard questions

Do gutter guards mean I never clean my gutters again?

No guard is zero-maintenance. Good ones cut cleaning to a quick check or rinse once or twice a year.

Can you put guards on my existing gutters?

If they're sound and pitched correctly, yes. If they sag or leak, we fix or replace them first.

Will gutter guards void my roof warranty?

Some guards slide under the shingles. We install them the way the guard maker and shingle maker allow, without nailing through the shingles.

Which guard is best for oak trees?

Big flat leaves are easiest to keep out; perforated aluminum or mesh both work. Pine needles and seed pods need fine micro-mesh.

Do guards cause ice dams?

Ice dams come from heat loss and poor ventilation, not guards. Guards can hold some snow; good attic ventilation is the real fix. See attic ventilation.
