Gutter Guard Installation

Installing gutter guards is a great way to prevent clogs. Gutter covers and guards act as a barrier between the gutter system and debris — such as leaves, pine needles, and other large debris — and ensure that these materials do not accumulate and obstruct the flow of rainwater.

The installation process typically involves fitting aluminum gutter guards or stainless steel micro mesh screen guards over the gutters, allowing water to flow freely while preventing debris from entering the gutter system. By choosing the right type of gutter guards for your gutters and contacting our team for a professional installation, you can significantly reduce the likelihood of clogs and all the problems that come with them!

Gutter guards not only prevent clogs but also protect gutters themself. The outer edge of the gutter guards shields rain gutters from the impact of falling leaves, branches, and other debris. This added layer of protection prevents damage to the gutters, extending their overall durability and functionality. After reaching out to Excel Cleaning Bros. for a professional gutter guard installation, you can improve the safety of your system and prevent costly repairs or the need for new gutters.

One of the lesser-known benefits of installing gutter guards is their ability to keep out pests. Without proper gutter protection, clogged gutters can become an attractive hide out for pests such as frogs, birds, and rodents. Professionally installed gutter guards act as a barrier against these unwanted visitors by preventing access. Also, since the gutters will be free flowing, the lack of standing water will prevent mosquito breeding grounds.

Gutter guard installation can lower the chances of ice damming. With our winter climate here in Michigan, the accumulation of ice dams on roof shingles and gutters can lead to significant damage. Gutter guards help regulate the flow of water and can prevent it from freezing and causing ice dams. By ensuring that water can flow freely through the gutter system, gutter guards eliminate the conditions that lead to ice dam formation and safeguard the roof and gutters from potential harm.

Gutter guard installations help reduce the need for maintenance and cleaning. The design of gutter guards allows them to block smaller debris while allowing water to flow through, minimizing the amount of dirt and leaves that can accumulate.

This reduction in debris buildup means less frequent cleanings and maintenance! With the right gutter guard in place, you can enjoy clean gutters year-round without the hassle of constantly dealing with the aftermath of rainstorms and seasonal changes.
