GUTTER GUARDS CAN SAVE YOUR GUTTERS When you have trees in your yard or near your home, chances are you’ll have debris in your gutters. Gutter guards can be installed in your gutters and used to catch leaves, twigs and such and prevent them from clogging up the gutters while allowing rainwater to flow freely away from your roof and to a downspout. The idea is that you won’t have to clean the gutters as often and they will prevent clogs from occurring. You will still need to clean the gutters, just less frequently and it should be easier to clean gutters with guards as opposed to gutters without. They are costly to install initially, but can save money over time because you won’t have to have the gutters cleaned as often and you may prevent water damage from occurring. Buyers may also see it as a benefit and in turn guards can add value to your home. There are different types of guards you can install and some will work better in certain climates and with different tree types. It’s best to do some research before purchasing or installing gutters.
