Why Should I Install Gutter Guards? Installing Gutter Guards can be a real investment and time saver if you find yourself cleaning out your gutters more than twice a year because they seem to always be filling up with leaves and other debris. Gutter guards could be your solution to cutting back on all that work and making just a routine cleaning/check up in the spring and fall be the only maintenance you really will need to worry about. We, at Gutters & Guards, Inc., offer several different varieties of gutter guards. Three of which we install regularly. The first is our high end gutter guard, Mastershield being the top of the line micro filtration system we offer. It is more expensive than other gutter guard system we offer but the technology and warranty is ahead of other systems. Mastershield offers a lifetime labor and manufacturer warranty. “We guarantee that a gutter protected by MasterShield will not clog. If it does, we’ll replace it or refund you the product cost of the MasterShield installed on your house*. But we don’t stop there: should the clog cause damage claimable against your homeowner’s policy, we’ll refund your insurance deductible, up to $1,500. Unlike some other systems, we don’t just promise to clean your gutter in the event of product failure, we promise a gutter that won’t clog. The MasterShield warranty comes direct from the manufacturer and is transferable if you should sell your home.” (source) The Mastershield system is completely enclosed by a stainless steel micromesh with a nonstick surface to prevent debris from entering in your gutters. So you won’t have to worry about pine needles getting in your gutters and creating clogs. Underneath the micromesh there is a “Hydro Vortex” to redirect water fast throughout your gutters. If you collect rainwater it’s also a purer rain water because it can filter out the majority of debris and shingle grit. It’s a light product that won’t weigh down your gutters but strong enough to keep pests out.  but the aluminum frame is strong and won’t bend up from tree limbs and sticks rolling over them.  Mastershield is available in an amazing 16 colors including copper. And it also has drip edge so you won’t have stripes running down your gutters.   The step down from this product is our screen mesh product. It has a 10 year manufacturer warranty and is made out of an anti-corrosive stainless steel screen-mesh. It’s constructed from durable aluminum material to maximize strength and coated with an industrial paint system to preserve the finish. This product is one of our biggest sellers and a great product we’ve been using for quite some time. It’s available in white, brown, bronze, and charcoal which is not as many as Mastershield. The third most popular product is our leafproof system. Unlike Mastershield and Screenmesh, Leafproof is an s-bend gutter guard that works with rain water momentum to reduce it and allow it to go into the opening. The opening is small ¼-inch water channel opening leaves gutters virtually impenetrable. Made of sturdy .024-gauge aluminum, Leafproof has a lifetime warranty with exclusions. It also sets under your shingles so it’s not an eyesore on your roof. It’s also available in 13 different colors including copper.   We also offer a few types of drop in gutter guards as well.
