Gutter Screens Eliminate Insect Infestation….
Perhaps more distressing than the thought of animals making a home in your gutters is the realization that spiders and other insects are doing the same! Without gutter screens your gutters will fill up with leaves and muck. If you have been cleaning your gutters manually then you already know that even days or weeks after rain the gunk in your gutters is still wet. Again, these damp and dark crevices in your clogged gutters are an open invitation for bugs to move in.
Insect infestation can cause problems for your home. Your soffit and fascia do not have to be moist to attract wood eating insect like beetles and termites, though without gutter screens there is a good chance that rainwater has seeped into your soffit and fascia making it more desirable for these types of critters. Beetles will lay eggs in the wood, and when the larvae hatch, they begin to tunnel. As they bore, the tunnels fill with sawdust. Click Here for Read More…
Ten Convincing Reasons To Install a Leaf Guard on Your Home
Thinking about the possibility of installing a quality leaf guard or rain guard system on your home’s existing gutters? It’s a wise choice indeed, and here are 10 convincing reasons why:
One: Gutter guards enable a significant reduction in maintenance. By keeping debris from building up in your home’s gutters and downspouts in the first place, you’ll barely ever need to clean the gutters—and occasional gutter maintenance after installing covers is usually as simple as giving them a good hosing down every so often.
Two: You’ll be much less prone to injury. Cleaning gutters presents a good deal of risk to your health—there’s all the up and down on the ladders, and of course, hanging halfway off the edge of the roof to scoop all of the gunk out…Yuck! Leaf guards significantly reduce the need to expose yourself to the dangers.
Three: Gutter guards add value to your home. Some of the most attractive value-producing selling points revolve around maintenance reduction home improvements. No one likes to clean gutters—making this one improvement that everyone can appreciate. Click Here for Read More…

How Gutter Helmet began…..
The origin of Gutter Helmet began in the 1960’s when Bob Demartini (MIT graduate) began crafting an idea for the first solid gutter cover system. However, the idea to inception would have to wait for nearly two decades. During that time, Bob gained extensive knowledge and experience in product development from his positions at such companies as General Electric and Huyck Corporation.
After retiring in 1979, Bob devoted his time to developing the first professional-grade gutter protection system—Gutter Helmet®. In the fall of 1981, the first of several US patents were granted and “Never Clean Your Gutters Again®” would become vernacular to millions of homeowners.
How a Typical Gutter System Works……
Curious about how typical house gutters are structured? Here is a basic outline of how a traditional house gutter system fits together.
Gutters are formed in a number of shapes and profiles, but the key components and the way those parts fit together is generally the same. Most house gutters are made of sections that are screwed together. Either a Spike-and-Ferrule hangar or a bracket hangar supports each section. At the end of the gutter, by the edge of the house, the downspout connects to the gutter through a drop outlet. An end cap is placed on the end of the last section of gutter to give the system a finished look and to channel water down the downspout. The drop outlet connects to two downspout elbows, which allows the gutter downspout to curve around the edge where your house meets the roof. Downspout straps are placed every few feet to secure the downspout to your house.
