Gutter guard protection

Gutter guard protection can be one of the best investments you can make to protect your gutters from debris.  Choosing the right protection for your gutters can be mind boggling with all of the products on the market.  Many gutter guard protection systems claim to keep all debris out of your gutters and at the same time taking on heavy rain fall.  The way that many systems are installed are by using a product that is made out of metal or plastic that slides under your shingles and over the gutter.  To hold in place many systems must be screwed down onto the top of the gutter or to the roof surface.  The problem with this method is that this can create a leak in your roof from the screws and void the warranty.  With heavy rain fall many gutter guard systems cannot take on large amounts of water, the water simply runs over the guard and defeats the purpose.  With plastic covers they tend to crack and break due to climate change and if tree branches fall onto the roof and hit the plastic covers they are damaged and debris falls back inside.

The best gutter protection is a gutter filter that we install that requires no screws or nails and fits inside the gutter.  This product is certified green and is made of a poly ether material that carries a 25 year warranty.  What is amazing about this product is that it can handle 28 inches of rain fall per hour, so it will not run over the gutter.

Clogged gutters create thousands of dollars in water damage

Clogged gutters and downspouts can cost you the home owner thousands of dollars in water damage.  When gutters and downspouts are clogged the water has no place to go but over the gutter and behind it into the home.  When the water goes over the gutter it can start to pond around the base of your home, so if you have a basement or crawl space you could start to see the areas slowly flood with water.  Inside the home your ceilings and walls can slowly start getting water spots and the drywall can start to get mold and mildew growing because its wet and has moisture.  Here at M&D Power Washing we clean out your gutters and place all debris into trash bags.  We flush out your downspouts with water to make sure they are working correctly.  Gutter guard protection is another service we provide once the gutters are cleaned out.  We service Fort Wayne, Indiana and all of Allen county as well as surrounding cities.  Visit our site http://www.cleantheroof.com or call 260-413-3290
