What Are Gutter Covers, and Why Do You Need Them?
Gutter covers—also known as gutter guards or leaf guards—are protective barriers installed over your gutters to prevent debris from entering while still allowing rainwater to flow through. They help eliminate the need for frequent cleanings and prevent blockages that can lead to water overflow and costly damage to your home’s foundation, roof, and landscaping.
Installing gutter guards:
- Reduces cleaning frequency and cost
- Prevents clogging from leaves, sticks, and pine needles
- Protects against rust and wear from standing water
- Keeps pests like birds and rodents from nesting in gutters
- Extends the life of your gutter system
Types of Gutter Covers We Install
At Miranda Seamless Gutters, we work with several types of gutter guard systems to meet the needs of different properties and budgets. Our most popular options include:
- Mesh Gutter Guards: Fine mesh screens that filter out small debris while allowing water to pass through.
- Screen Gutter Guards: Metal or plastic screens that block larger debris and are easy to install.
- Solid Surface Covers: Curved or flat covers that use surface tension to direct water in while blocking debris completely.
Our team will help you choose the best style for your home based on your roofline, tree coverage, and water flow needs.
