NEED GUTTER GUARDS?
What are Gutter Guards?
Gutters are basic and low cost considering how important they are: protecting much more valuable areas of your house. Gutters help keep rain water off the wood or siding, windows, patio, deck and basement, directing it discreetly away from your house.
Therefore, anything that can protect your gutters from damage and helps them function even more efficiently is a smart investment too.
Gutter guards are an affordable product you can install on any type of gutters, and they work as a protective screen for your gutters so large debris and pests won’t get inside of them. Buying gutter guards can be a money-saving measure that you’ll be rewarded for for year after year.
There are many types of gutter guard. The type you choose to install will depend on your available budget and the type of rain gutters you have. Gutter guards are made of aluminum, nylon or plastic.

Benefits of Gutter Guards
Typically, gutter guards cost about as much per linear foot as the gutters cost themselves. But in the long run, you’re going to save a lot of time and money installing them. Here are a few of the reasons we think you should install gutter guards on your roof:
Improve Drainage by Preventing Clogs – Gutter guards help keep debris out of your gutters. Otherwise large pieces of debris settle in the gutter first, then small pieces of debris pile up around them. Of all the many gutter guard models, all of them block 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 because it isn’t blocked by any large debris or leaves. Rain is one of the primary causes of mold and mildew to grow, so moving the water faster through the gutters limits the amount of time rain is sitting still, leading to mold and mildew.
Prevent Pests from Nesting – Keeping squirrels, chipmunks, birds and insects out of rain gutters and off the roof can be an endless battle. Every type of gutter guard prevents animals from building nests inside of the gutter. Some homeowners choose to install gutter guards for no other reason than this.
Gutter Cleaning Less Often – Gutter guards must be removed in order to clean the gutters, but if they are present, this project won’t have to be done as regularly. Leaf guards cut down the frequency that you have to clean out the gutters – or or hire a company to do the work for you – so that you might only have to have them cleaned out once each year.
Protection From Fires – A common way fires spread to homes is if embers fall into gutters where there is dry debris. This debris fuels the fire until it grows and damages the roof, and then the entire house. A simple gutter guard installation can protect your home from this fire risk.
Prevent Ice Dams – If you happen to live in an area that gets below-freezing temperatures, snow and sleet, you’ll be interested to know that gutter guards can help stop snow and ice from staying up on your roof. Their designs purposefully redirect melting ice and snow to get it off your roof much faster.
These are all issues that impact hundreds of thousands of homes each year. Gutter guards protect a vital system that protects the rest of the home. If you’ve never considered installing them before, it could be time to think about it.

Professional Gutter Guard Installation
You can see, there are a lot of benefits of gutter guards. While it might be tempting to run out and purchase the model you think will work best – how different could they be, right? – you will still have to install them correctly. In the end, you’re much better off letting a professional gutter guard installer do the job for you.
Not only will professional installation be a lot more reliable than your DIY work, but a gutter guard service and installer should be able to recommend the best type of gutter for your home in the first place. They are familiar with all of the options, and they will consider each factor when deciding their recommendation.
Here are some of the factors a gutter guard company will consider when deciding the perfect gutter guards for your home:
Material – Gutter guards can be manufactured with aluminum, plastic, foam or a handful of other materials. Some are designed for temporary usage and others are designed to last just as long as your gutters will. The material plays a key factor in how long gutter guards will last.
Installation method – The type of gutter guards we would encourage for a homeowner to install on their own is the drop in kind that don’t require any fastening to the gutters. Installing the other types, including snap-in and screw-on gutter guards, might destroy your gutters if they are not installed correctly.
Appearance – Some gutter guards boast a low profile so they aren’t visible from ground level, while some styles are visible. If this is an important requirement, you will be limited on the type of gutter guard you can install, and limited even more by the type of gutters you have. If it is important for you to have “invisible” gutter guards installed, it might be necessary to install new gutters too.
Warranty – Some gutter guard styles will come with a short warranty, but most of the aluminum types are guaranteed to last for 10-20 years. By having a licensed gutter guard installation company in Taunton (rather than doing it yourself), you won’t void the warranty. Gutter guards should not lift your shingles, nor should their installation void your roof’s warranty.
Another great thing about having True Clean 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 choosing the gutter guards you will have installed. We provide a wide range of options for every budget, and will provide the benefits listed above, to one degree or another.
