You already know how important gutters are in directing water away from your walls and foundation.

Unfortunately, water is not only what gutters hold. We’re talking about the dirt and debris that accumulates on your gutter system almost every season, which makes regular gutter cleaning a must-do.

Regularly removing all the debris and dirt from your gutter system can be an exhausting task. What if there was a labor-saving, cost-efficient alternative? Would you consider it?

That’s where the gutter leaf protection system comes in.

What is gutter leaf protection?

Also known as a leaf guard, gutter leaf protection is a seamless system that helps keep your gutters free of debris. It saves you from the trouble of regular gutter cleaning.

Although gutter leaf protection installation is mostly done on newly built homes, an older home with existing gutters in a good state can still have leaf guards installed.

Besides preventing debris accumulation, some other benefits of gutter leaf protection include:

It guards against decay and rust formation
If you collect rainwater, a leaf guard ensures your rainwater is much cleaner compared to when you have no leaf guard
It also reduces overflow of water during heavy rains or storms, since there are no clogs that hinder water flow

In addition, gutter leaf protection systems help improve your home’s aesthetic appeal and general condition of your home, since you won’t be dealing with foundational issues.
