For most people, their home is their biggest investment and they have a vested interest in maintaining that. The right rain gutter protection system, with a solid gutter cover, can prevent structural damage to your home and save thousands in costly repairs.

Preventing water damage by channeling rain water away from your home is easily accomplished with properly installed rain gutters and downspouts. Keeping gutters free flowing is another issue altogether. To prevent clogged gutter and water damage, you need to either keep gutters cleaned regularly so they don’t fill with tree debris and leaves, or invest in a good quality, effective rain gutter protection system.

If you don’t have a gutter cover system, gutters can get clogged and water damage can occur when rainwater continually runs down the side of a house and into the surrounding ground instead of away from a home. Not only are plants beds and landscaping affected but sidewalks and driveways often suffer damage as well. Paint can crack and peel, and shingles and roofing can also become damaged from prolonged water exposure. It is also important to note that wood rot and black mold, which can cause illness are also a danger.

Gutter Guard Reviews and Comparison: How does Gutter Helmet’s system compare to screens, foam and other gutter cover products?

Gutter Helmet Solid Gutter Guard

What’s the difference between a gutter guard, gutter helmet, gutter covers and gutter screens? Gutter Helmet’s gutter guard system has been reviewed and tested. In a side by side gutter guard comparison, Gutter Helmet protected better than other gutter protection products. Gutter Helmet installs the best rain gutter protection system using a solid gutter guard design that keeps leaves out and prevents clogged gutters.

Gutter screens on the other hand, allow pine needles and certain types of debris to enter gutters through small holes or slits in the cover. Gutter Helmet is a solid gutter guard, not a screen. Gutter Helmet is NOT foam either. Gutter foams attempt to absorb water and block leaves from entering gutters. The problem is that leaves build up on top of the foam. When leaves and tree matter break down and decompose, particles and debris can enter gutters building up and causing clogs. Gutter Helmet’s gutter guard system has been tested and ranked as the #1 rain gutter protection system in America by Dean Johnson, Host of Hometime.

Spring is here and it’s a great time to  inspect your home’s gutters  for winter snow and ice damage, and thoroughly clean gutters before the spring rains start.  Left over leaves from fall can clog gutters and cause water to back up, eventually leading to water damage. Check out Gutter Helmet’s gutter cleaning and repair tips:

Gutter Cleaning & Repair:

- Start with a ladder, rubber or leather gloves, a  good scooping device (or you can use your hands) and a bucket. You should also have a hose handy to rinse gutters and check for leaks.

-Scrub moldy gutters with a stiff brush to remove standing mold/mildew that can lead to disease and affect air quality in and around your home.

- You will need a ladder, a bucket, rubber gloves, a spade or other small shovel, large spoon or other device to scoop debris from gutters and a hose to do the job

- After you remove all the debris by hand, rinse out the gutters with a hose and check for leaks

- Also be sure to check to make sure your gutters are pitched correctly so that water flows completely out of gutters and there is no standing water

- Repair any leaks at seems by patching with outdoor waterproof caulk

-Always do this with a second person who can hold the ladder and empty the bucket. That way you reduce the risk of falling.
