Today's Homeowner looks at dozens of datapoints on gutter guard companies to come up with our data-driven rankings. It's not possible for a company to pay for preferential treatment in our rankings. We look at the following key factors in determining who should top our list:
The main types of gutter guards include the following:
Internet reviews from real customers, in addition to the BBB, are great places to begin. When you speak with the gutter services professional directly, they should be able to describe how installation may or may not affect your roof warranty. Post-inspection, the company should be able to provide a written estimate. Your technician should also give you information about warranty policies and provide proof of insurance, in the unlikely event that someone sustains an injury while on your property.
Any kind of severe weather can pose a threat to your gutters. A heavy storm or strong winds could blow in debris and block the system. This can lead to water damage, attract pests, and ruin your gutters.
When you buy mesh gutter guards, you can save time you'd otherwise spend cleaning your gutters yourself and money you'd otherwise spend for professional deep-cleaning. Even if you don't have trees on your property, guards stop birds and insects that like to live in gutters and eat debris. Guards also help prevent water damage, rust, and corrosion .
Certain companies will remove your old gutter guards at the same time that they install new ones. Not all companies offer this kind of package service; the best way to make sure your gutters are fully taken care of is to reach out to one or more of the companies on our list to ask about what services they offer.
A number of full-service gutter guard installation companies offer lifetime transferable warranties, which have both long- and short-term benefits. This warranty will provide protection should your gutter guards fail, and it adds value to your home when you're ready to sell.
You may be used to handling many household projects — you may have even installed your gutters on your own — but gutter guard installation greatly benefits from professional guidance. If you're looking to install screen, mesh, micro-mesh, or surface tension guards, then hiring professional help will be highly recommended or even required.
For any guards, your local gutter services professional can help measure your gutters to make sure that you don't under- or over-purchase materials. If you haven't decided what kind of guards are best for your house, they can point you in the right direction based on the details of your project. Finally, a professional works to install the guards quickly and safely, saving you time and stress.
