Why Other Products Don't Compare To Gutter Guard PRO
Standard Gutter Guards: There are many aluminum gutter guard options with perforated holes, and while some can effectively block larger debris like leaves and sticks, they often fall short when it comes to pine needles and shingle grit, which can clog your gutters over time. Many of these guards are designed with holes that are too large, allowing smaller debris to pass through and accumulate. Lower quality options lack durability, leading to warping, deterioration, and can even be blown away in high winds. For properties with fewer trees or less demanding conditions, standard gutter guards may offer a cost-effective solution, but their limitations often make them less reliable for long-term protection.
Hood-Style: Hood and helmet-style gutter guards, while offering a unique design, often come with significant drawbacks. These systems typically install under your shingles, disturbing your roof and often voiding its warranty. Most are a one-piece design that requires a complete gutter replacement, an unnecessary and costly expense if your existing gutters are in good condition. The biggest drawback is that these products feature a large horizontal opening along the gutter's edge, allowing debris to accumulate and clog your gutters. Once clogged, cleaning becomes a major hassle and often requires removing the entire gutter guard system. While hood and helmet-style gutter guards may seem appealing at first, their design flaws and high costs make them an unreliable option for long-term gutter protection.
Foam Inserts: Foam inserts are a popular DIY gutter guard option, but they often cause more problems than they solve. These inserts fill the gutter with foam material, but leaves, sticks, shingle grit, and dirt still accumulate over time. As debris builds up and the foam becomes saturated, it promotes mold, mildew, and even plant growth, worsening clogging issues instead of solving them. While their low cost can be appealing, foam inserts often lead to frequent cleanings and unexpected maintenance expenses. In many cases, they require more upkeep than having no gutter guards at all, making them an impractical and ineffective solution for long-term gutter protection.
Open Gutters: Gutters without any gutter guards at all come with significant drawbacks. Exposed to the elements, they quickly collect leaves, pine needles, shingle grit, and dirt, leading to clogs in the gutters and downspouts. These clogs not only damage the gutters but also cause rainwater overflow, potentially resulting in costly water damage to your home. While leaving gutters uncovered may seem like a budget-friendly option, it’s far from a long-term solution. Regular cleaning becomes a recurring expense, especially if you hire a professional gutter cleaning service. For homeowners who clean their gutters themselves, it’s a dirty, time-consuming, and often dangerous chore. Ultimately, open face gutters without any protection create ongoing maintenance challenges and can lead to much greater expenses over time.
