Why Gutter Guard?
Gutter Guard is a gutter protection system. It keeps leaves and rubbish out from roofs, gutters, valleys and downpipes by creating a “sloping surface”. This sloping surface that makes it easier for the wind to blow away the leaves so they do they don’t settle, and rot your gutters. No leaf litter, rubbish or debris in your gutter means clean, free-flowing gutters to take the excess rain water away from your home. No blocked gutters!
