What are Gutter Guards?
Gutters are fairly simple and low cost considering the purpose they serve: protecting much more valuable parts of your house. Gutters keep rain off the siding, windows, patio, deck and basement, directing it discreetly away from your house.
That means, anything that protects your gutters and helps them work even more efficiently is a smart investment.
Gutter guards are an affordable feature you can install on almost any type of gutters, and they function as a protective shield for your gutters so debris and pests can’t get inside of them. Purchasing gutter guards can be a money-saving measure that you’ll thank yourself for year after year.
There are several styles of gutter guard. The type you install will depend on your available budget and the type of rain gutters you have on your home. Gutter guards are made of aluminum, nylon or plastic.

Benefits of Gutter Guards
On average, gutter guards will cost around as much per linear foot as the gutters themselves. But in the long run, you’re going to save time and money installing them. Here are some of the reasons we recommend to install gutter guards on your home:
Improve Drainage by Preventing Clogs – Gutter guards keep leaves and debris out of your gutters. Otherwise big pieces of debris settle in the gutter first, then small pieces collect around them. Of all the different gutter guard models, all of them stop these larger pieces of debris from becoming stuck to begin with.
Reduce Mold & Mildew Growth – Gutter guards allow water to stream through the gutters quickly since it isn’t blocked by any large debris. Rain is one of the primary reasons for mold and mildew to grow, so moving the water faster through the gutters reduces the time rain is sitting still, possibly leading to mold and mildew.
Prevent Pests from Nesting – Keeping squirrels, chipmunks, birds and insects out of gutters and off the roof can be an endless struggle. Every model of gutter guard prevents animals from building nests inside of the gutter. A lot of homeowners choose to install gutter guards just for this reason.
Gutter Cleaning Less Often – Gutter guards must be removed to clean the gutters, but when they are installed, this job doesn’t have to be done as regularly. Leaf guards can cut down the frequency that you need to clean out the gutters – or hire a professional to do the job for you – so that you may only have to have them cleaned only once each year.
Protection From Fires – A typical way fires spread to homes is if embers fall into gutters that have dry debris in them. This debris fuels the fire until it becomes too large and damages the roof, and then the entire house. A simple gutter guard installation can protect your home from the risk of fire.
Prevent Ice Dams – If you happen to live in an area that gets frequent below-freezing temps, snow and ice, you’ll be interested to know that gutter guards can help prevent snow and ice from staying up on your roof. Their unique designs redirect melting snow and ice to get it off your roof much faster.
These are all problems that impact hundreds of thousands of American homes each year. Gutter guards protect an important system that protects the rest of the home. If you’ve never considered installing them before, it may be time to think about it.

Professional Gutter Guard Installation
As you can see, there are many benefits of gutter guards. While it may be tempting to run out and purchase the model you think will work best – how different could they really be, right? – you will still have to install them properly. All things considered, you’re much better off having a professional gutter guard installer do the project for you.
Not only will professional installation be much more reliable than your DIY work, but a local gutter guard service and installer should be able to recommend the best type of gutter for your house in the first place. They are familiar with all of the styles, and they will consider each factor when deciding their recommendation.
Here are some of the things a gutter guard company will take into account when deciding the perfect gutter guards for your home:
Material – Gutter guards can be made of aluminum, plastic, foam or a handful of other materials. Some are made for temporary use while others are designed to last just as long as your gutters. The construction plays a key factor in how long gutter guards will last.
Installation method – The style of gutter guards we would recommend for a homeowner to install themselves is the drop in type that do not require fastening to the gutters. However, these are not as dependable. Installing the other types, including snap-in and screw-on gutter guards, can destroy your rain gutters if they’re not installed the right way.
Appearance – Some gutter guards offer a low profile so they cannot be seen from ground level, while some styles are visible. If that is an important requirement, you are limited on the type of gutter guard you can have, and limited even more by the style of gutters you have. If it is important for you to have “invisible” gutter guards, it may be necessary for you to purchase new gutters as well.
Warranty – A lot of gutter guard styles will come with a shorter warranty, but most of the aluminum types are guaranteed to last for at least 10-20 years. By hiring a licensed gutter guard installer in Roswell (rather than doing it on your own), you won’t void your warranty. Gutter guards should never lift your shingles, nor should the installation void your roof’s warranty.
Another great thing by having PRO Roswell Gutters install your new gutter guards is that we’ll come back and repair them free of charge if there is an issue due to the installation from our team.
Your budget is, of course, the final factor in deciding which gutter guards you will have installed. We offer a wide range of options for every budget, and will provide the benefits listed above, to one degree or another.
