No matter what type of gutter system you have, it must be kept clean to do its job. Even if you have screens over your gutters, small particles from your roof will get past those screens and eventually clog your drainage system. A clogged drainage system will not only cause damage to your roof line, but your foundation as well.
A damp foundation is nothing more than a breeding place for mold, mildew and other nasty things. Also, standing water in your drainage system is the proper environment for mosquito's to breed and if you have standing water, there is a 100 percent chance that the side of your home is damp. Termites love damp wood!
Proper maintenance of your gutters is a dangerous job. It should only be done by professionals. You must be properly equipped.
Lock-On Gutter Screen
Each 4 foot section of lock on gutter guard is made from heavy gauge steel and has a unique crimped edge which locks directly onto the gutter lip. The black powder coated finish blends in with most types of roofs (shingles, tile, metal, or cedar roofs).
This gutter screen is the strongest of all the metal gutter screens we researched and is designed to retain its shape season after season.
