Key Points
Watch the episode below to find out about :
- Factors to consider for whether you need gutter guard, and
- Maintenance required after installing gutter guard
Brief Summary
If you are considering gutter guard as an option, firstly ask yourself whether you have trees surrounding your home? If the answer is "No" then gutter guard is probably unnecessary in your case.
If the answer is "Yes" then you may want to consider your options in terms of preventing leaves and debris from settling in your gutters and blocking water flow and drainage.
Something else to consider is that whilst gutter guard is a great measure to prevent blocked gutters and subsequent roof leaks, it will still require some maintenance. We would still recommend you have your guttering cleaned at least once every six months to prolong the life of your gutters and ensure the gutter guard can continue doing it's job.
We hope this vlog has helped you decide whether you need gutter guard or not. If you have further questions please write them in the comments box below, make an enquiry here or give our friendly team a call on 1800 476 634. We'd be more than happy to help!
