What Are Gutter Guards?
If you’ve ever spent a weekend clearing out soggy leaves, pine needles, and gunk from your gutters, you know how important it is to keep them clean. That’s where gutter guards come in. But what exactly are they—and are they really worth it?
Gutter Guards Explained
Gutter guards are protective covers installed over your home’s gutters to prevent debris from clogging the system. Their main job is simple but essential: keep leaves, sticks, pests, and other unwanted materials out, while still allowing rainwater to flow freely through your gutters and downspouts.
There are different types of gutter guards—screen, foam, brush, and micro-mesh—but not all are created equal. One of the most effective and trusted options on the market today is LeafBlaster Pro®.
What Makes LeafBlaster Pro® Different?
LeafBlaster Pro® is a high-performance micro-mesh stainless steel gutter guard system designed to protect your home from the top down. Developed by Gutterglove®, one of the most respected names in the industry, LeafBlaster Pro® is engineered to handle anything Mother Nature throws its way.
Here’s what sets it apart:
Stainless Steel Micro-Mesh: Fine enough to block even the smallest debris like pine needles and shingle grit—without corroding or breaking down over time.
Z-Bend Technology: Enhances rigidity and lifts debris off the mesh so it can blow away naturally, keeping your gutters clean and free-flowing.
Versatile Design: Works with any roof type or pitch, making it a great option for nearly any home.
Eco-Friendly: Filters out debris so well that it can even be paired with rainwater harvesting systems for clean, usable water.
Benefits of Installing Gutter Guards
