NEED GUTTER GUARDS?
What are Gutter Guards?
Gutters are simple and affordable considering how important they are: protecting more valuable areas of your house. Gutters keep rain water off the wood or siding, windows, patio, deck and basement, routing it away from your home.
Therefore, anything that protects your gutters and helps them work more efficiently is a smart investment too.
Gutter guards are a low cost feature you can add to almost any style of gutters, and they function as a protective shield for your gutters so large debris and pests can’t get inside of them. Installing gutter guards can be a money-saving decision that you’ll thank yourself for many years.
There are many types of gutter guard. The type you choose to install will depend on your available budget and the type of gutters you have on your home. Gutter guards are made of either aluminum, nylon or plastic.

Benefits of Gutter Guards
On average, gutter guards will cost about as much per linear foot as the gutters themselves. In the long run, you will save a lot of time and money installing them. Here are some of the reasons we think you should install gutter guards on your home:
Improve Drainage by Preventing Clogs – Gutter guards keep leaves and most debris out of your gutters. Otherwise larger pieces settle in the gutter first, then small pieces collect around them. Of all the many gutter guard models, all of them prevent larger pieces of debris from becoming stuck to begin with.
Reduce Mold & Mildew Growth – Gutter guards allow water to flow through the gutters faster since it is unhindered by any debris or leaves. Rain is one of the primary reasons for mold and mildew growth, therefore moving the water faster through the gutters limits the amount of time rain spends sitting still, leading to mold and mildew.
Prevent Pests from Nesting – Keeping squirrels, chipmunks, birds and insects out of gutters and off the roof can be an endless struggle. Every style of gutter guard prevents animals from crafting nests within the gutter. Some homeowners choose to install gutter guards for this reason alone.
Gutter Cleaning Less Often – Gutter guards need to be removed to clean the gutters, but when they are installed, this project won’t have to be done as regularly. Leaf guards can reduce the frequency in which you need to clean gutters – or have someone to do it for you – so that you may only need to have them cleaned out once each year.
Protection From Fires – A typical way fires spread to homes is when embers fall inside of gutters that have dry debris in them. This debris gives the fire fuel until it grows and damages the roof, and then the entire home. 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 prevent 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 problems that impact hundreds of thousands of American homes each year. Gutter guards protect an important system that protects the rest of the home. If you haven’t considered installing them before, it could be time to think about it.

Professional Gutter Guard Installation
You can see, there are several benefits of gutter guards. While it might be tempting to run out and install the type you think will work best – how much different could they really be, right? – you will still have to install them properly. All things considered, you’re much better off having a professional gutter guard installer do the project for you.
Not only will their 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 system for your house in the first place. They are familiar with all of the choices, and they will consider each factor when deciding their recommendation.
Here are some of the things a gutter guard service will consider when choosing the perfect gutter guards for your home:
Material – Gutter guards can be made of aluminum, plastic, foam or a handful of other materials. Some are designed for temporary usage while others are built to last as long as your gutters will. The construction is 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 themselves is the drop in type that don’t require any fastening to the gutters. Installing other types, including snap-in and screw-on gutter guards, can damage your rain gutters if they’re not installed correctly.
Appearance – Some gutter guards offer a low profile so they aren’t visible from ground level, while others are very obvious. If this is an important requirement, you are limited on the type of gutter guard you can install, and limited even more by the style of gutters you have. If it is very important for you to have low profile gutter guards, it may be necessary to buy new gutters.
Warranty – A lot of gutter guard styles will come with a shorter manufacturer’s warranty, but most of the aluminum models are guaranteed to last for 10-20 years. By having a licensed gutter guard installer in Jonesboro (rather than doing it on your own), you won’t void the warranty. Gutter guards should never lift your shingles, nor should the installation void your roof’s warranty.
Another great thing by having Jonesboro Gutter Cleaning install your gutter guards is that we’ll return and fix them for FREE if there is an issue related to the installation from our team.
Your budget is, of course, the final factor in deciding which gutter guards you will have installed. We offer a range of options for every budget, and will provide the benefits listed above, to one degree or another.
