In the pursuit of maintaining a healthy exterior, one area that's often overlooked is the gutter system and even more critically may be cleaning and adding guards to your system. The gutter system acts as an invisible hero protecting your home from some serious damage, functioning as your home's frontline defense against water damage. But, who's guarding the guard? That's where gutter guards come to the rescue. But, what are these silent defenders, and how can they enhance the protection of your gutter system? Let's delve deeper.
"Gutter guards act as the shield to your gutter system's sword, extending the life of your gutters and defending against damaging debris."
The Functionality of Gutter Guards
Blockage Prevention: Gutter guards intercept falling debris, be it leaves, twigs, or a stray tennis ball, preventing them from clogging your gutters. Pine needles are a number one culprit in our area. We specialize in just the right type guard to protect against those. Not all guards are created equal. Let us show you the difference in types of guards to help prevent blockage and ultimately major damage to your home's exteriors.
Reduced Maintenance: With fewer blockages come far less frequent cleanings, easing your maintenance duties. However, be sure to brush the tops of the guards off two or three times per year. We offer a free kit with our guard installs to make that a piece of cake, and we also offer an annual maintenance plan that offers you peace of mind without ever touching a ladder. It includes assessing the guards once per year, among many other tasks on our checklist, all included on a very affordable maintenance plan. Contrary to some claims, even gutter guards are not completely maintenance free.
Improved Water Flow: By keeping your gutters clear of blockages, gutter guards enable water to smoothly flow away from your home, preventing water damage. Some guards can actually worsen water flow so be sure to trust us, the experts in gutter guards in Alabama.
