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:
There are six main types of gutter guards. These include the following:
Reviews from real customers online, in addition to the BBB, are excellent places to start. When you speak with the gutter services professional directly, they should be able to explain how the work will or won't affect your roof warranty. Post-inspection, the company should provide a written estimate. Your technician should also offer you information about warranty policies and provide evidence of insurance, in the unlikely event that there is an injury on your property.
There are a handful of things that'll influence what gutter guard type is best for your house. You'll need to consider the typical weather in your part of Ohio and the type and number of trees around your house. Troy can sometimes see heavy rainfall and has a lot of trees, so you'll want to do your research before deciding on gutter guards.
You should also think about whether you mind the guards being visible from the ground. Lastly, take into account the budget for your project. Your local gutter services company will help make sure you choose the perfect gutter guards for your gutter system.
When you use mesh 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 surrounding your home, guards stop birds, roaches, and other pests that nest in gutters and eat debris. Guards also help prevent corrosion, water damage, and rust .
In many cases gutter guard installation companies will also offer cleaning services. You can determine if a company provides this service by speaking with a representative directly, or by checking to see if it appears on our list of
The life span of your gutter guards will depend on the style and material that you choose. Most types of plastic guards last between three and six years, while metal guards can last between seven and 20 years (with steel on the lower end and aluminum on the higher). For example, plastic micro-mesh lasts approximately three years, while the life span for metal micro-mesh is about 12 years. Foam guards can last up to a decade, although that life span may be shorter in very wet or sunny climates. Brush and surface tension guards can both last up to 20 years, depending on the weather in your area and how well you maintain them.
