Curious About the Cost of Leaf Guard Gutter Guards?

First, let’s look at cost vs. investment. You want to make sure that the gutter guards you choose are an investment as opposed to a cost.

Costly gutter guards are those that either don’t work or require aggravating maintenance. End result is that they have to be replaced or end up costing your expensive repair work.

To find a gutter guard that qualifies as an investment, it’s important to compare design and functionality. Of the hundred or so different gutter covers from which to choose, most of them end up being a cost.

You can be guaranteed that any kind of screen or filter is a cost.Why? Answer: they either let debris into the gutter in sufficient amounts to clog the gutter, blow out or get dislodged, or they accumulate enough debris on top to keep the rain water from getting into the gutter. The cost of these screen gutter guards can range between a couple dollars a foot to nearly twenty-two dollars a foot.

Then there are many solid top type gutter guards of the helmet variety. Many of these in high debris environments allow enough debris into the gutter to clog the downspout. Bottom line is that they are a headache with which to deal. Why? Answer: Because you can’t see that they are clogged and have no idea as to the problem until you see the results in terms of flooded basements, soil erosion, mold, mildew, rotted fascia, and so on. That’s a cost.

A gutter guard that qualifies as an investment never allows enough debris into the gutter to clog it and is easy to maintain from the ground by the homeowner. Of all the gutter guards available there’s only one that qualifies and that’s the Waterloov^® Gutter Guard. What makes the Waterloov^® Gutter Protector different than all the other gutter guards is that the Waterloov^®Gutter Guard is the only gutter guard with two rows of interspersed discriminating louvers in the vertical front surface.

Considering that all professionally installed gutter guards are going to range in terms of several thousand dollars to guard your gutters and that the difference is in terms of about 20% ranging from product to product, it makes sense to make sure your money is an investment rather than a cost.
