Gutter Guards - Do They Work?

How does the cost of installing a gutter guard theory correlate to having my gutters cleaned by a professional, insured company? I get this examine all the time. So here comes my answer. I researched, hired, and after I had my gutters cleaned we examined the work. I picked 2 of the top gutter cleaning associates in the Northern Virginia area to get bids on the work. Both told me that they wanted me to sign a compact to have the gutters cleaned 7-9 times per year. The cost of the each year compact was calculated on the footage of gutters we had on the house.

That makes sense to me, and it's true that gutters need cleaning often. Much more often than the typical homeowner cares to admit they need done. But think of it like this. How often do you sweep off your back porch, deck, or sidewalks? It takes a hand full of leaves to clog a downspout. Now back to the price. We have 142 feet of gutter on our home and they wanted .50/ft. Total of 3 a visit and at the suggested of 7 visits a year comes to a whopping 91 a year. Now you can also hire your gardener or lawn guy but is that a wise thing to do? This would not a good investment for the long run. Are they insured? Is that their line of work? Will they do a good job?

Water Filtration

Now, how about a professionally installed, lifetime money back guaranteed, gutter guard theory that is permanent, adds value to your home, and shows possible buyers that home maintenance is Very leading to you. Let's take the same footage of house, 142', and see what the cost for a micro-mesh gutter guard theory would be in Virginia and Maryland. The cost for adding gutter protection for an median size home would be under 00 for an entire system. So in less than 3 years you have recouped your investment and your gutters are all the time clean. If your gutters are in good shape, we clean them and the downspouts, align the gutters for permissible water flow, reinforce them with inside hangers, and re-seal all the miters and end caps. So do yourself a favor and check out Micro-Filtration gutter guards. The end results for hiring the gutter cleaners was a nice job but all too temporary. They admittedly cleaned the gutters and the downspouts. Any way my gutters were dirty again after the next rainstorm that blew more leaves into my gutters the next week. Is this a case of hard earned money down the drain?
