Gutter cleaning is a time-consuming (and sometimes dangerous) task that likely doesn't make anyone's list of favorite chores. Neglecting the upkeep of your gutters, however, can cause problems later on. Blocked or damaged gutters can attract pests, cause water damage, and encourage mold growth. One easy way to take care of your system is adding gutter guards. You may be concerned about installing the guards the right way, and about them lasting long enough to be worth the price. This is where the experts come in.
To help, we've put together a list of the premier gutter guard installation companies around the Midlothian area.

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 primary types of gutter guards are as follows:
Reviews from real customers online, in addition to the BBB, are excellent places to begin. A reliable gutter services professional should be able to provide information on how the job may or may not affect your roof warranty. Following an inspection, the company should provide an estimate in writing. It should also offer you information about warranties 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, ruin your gutters, and attract pests.
When you use mesh guards, you can save time you'd otherwise spend cleaning your gutters yourself and cash you'd otherwise spend for professional deep-cleaning. Even if you don't have trees near your home, guards stop birds and insects that like to live in gutters and eat debris. Guards also help prevent corrosion, rust, and water damage .
Certain companies will remove your old gutter guards and at the same time install new ones. Not every company offers both services, and the best way to ensure that your gutters get the care they need is to call one or two of the companies on our above list to learn about what services they offer.
You may be accustomed to tackling many projects — you may have even installed your gutters on your own — but gutter guard installation greatly benefits from professional guidance. If you're planning to install mesh, screen, surface tension, or micro-mesh guards, then hiring a professional to do the installation will be highly recommended or even required.
For any guards, your gutter services professional can help take measurements of your gutter system to make sure that you don't under- or over-purchase materials. If you are undecided about what style of gutter guards are best for your home, a professional can point you in the right direction based on your unique needs. Last but not least, a professional works to install your guards safely and speedily, which saves you time and headache.
