A good gutter system is vital to protect your home against rain and water intrusion. It does this by draining and channeling rainwater off your roof and away from the house. This helps protect not only your foundation and landscaping, but also the exterior walls, siding, soffit and fascia from the effects of erosion and water damage.
The #1 Gutter Problem
When it comes to your gutters, there’s one problem that occurs more than any other: gutter clogging. In areas with deciduous trees that lose their leaves annually, this problem is most prevalent in the fall. If you don’t keep up with necessary gutter maintenance, your gutters and downspouts will become full of leaves, twigs and other tree debris, a combination which can create blockages that prevent water from flowing freely into the downspouts and drains. This will cause water to spill over the sides of the gutters and down the side of the house to the ground, causing water damage to the house and disrupting landscaping.
In addition, the weight of the collected debris can put stress on the gutters and cause them to sag, buckle and pull away from the house, resulting in expensive repairs.
How to Eliminate Clogs
Gutter cleaning is a dirty, tedious chore. If this is something you hate doing yourself – and you don’t want the trouble and expense of hiring someone else to take care of them – consider installing gutter guards. In particular, Gutter Helmet® gutter guards! If you want a top gutter protection system, we have the best gutter guards around. They have a patented nose-forward design that allows water to flow smoothly into your gutters while keeping out the aforementioned debris. As a result, your gutters will never have to be cleaned again!
Other Features of Gutter Helmet® Gutter Guards
Why are Gutter Helmet gutter guards the best? Here are a few of the reasons:
- Solid, heavy-duty mounting brackets. These keep the gutter guards securely attached, so you never have to worry about them coming loose or separating from the gutters.
- A ribbed, textured surface. This type of surface increases water tension, which is what keeps the water clinging to the gutter cover as it enters the gutters. It also helps increase the product’s durability.
- Permalife® finish. When you choose Gutter Helmet gutter covers, you can expect minimal maintenance requirements. This is because Permalife is a high-performance paint that is resistant to chalking, fading and corrosion, even when exposed to acid rain and saltwater.
