There are many different styles and types of leaf guards available on the market, such as aluminum screw down, micro mesh, and DIY wire guards. The purpose of a leaf guard is to prevent the clogging of leaves in a gutter. Leaf guards do not make gutters maintenance free, as periodic inspections are necessary, however, guards do reduce the frequency in which inspections need to occur. Rainwater Gutters offers two types of guards: Leaf Blaster Pro and Bulldog.
Alu-rex is an all in one leaf guard and hanger system. there are two different versions for new gutter installation, the doublepro and the t-rex. The double-pro is a dual layer guard that prevents pine needles and almost all debris from entering the gutter. T-Rex may allow some pine needles, but still has a 40 year clog guarantee.
Leaf Blaster Pro is a stainless steel, micromesh, high-flow leaf guard that helps prevent pine needles, shingle grit, and other foreign debris from clogging your gutters! This guard works with any style of roof and requires very little maintenance compared to other guards.
