Gutter Guard Installation in Merrick, Freeport and surrounding Nassau & Suffolk New York County areas
When the seasons change, it’s normal for leaves, sticks, and other debris build up in the gutters of homes that don’t have gutter guards. Installing drain guards is one way to avoid this situation. The presence of leaves and sticks is often what causes muck to build up, which then makes it necessary to clean in a very messy way.
Gutter guard installation creates a buffer between the roof and the gutter system. This keeps debris like leaves and sticks from getting into the gutter system and clogging it up. Leaves and sticks can’t get into the gutter system because of this barrier. But water and snow that has melted can get through it.

Advantages
- Water damage prevention: Water damage is prevented by gutter guard installation, which make it less likely that too much waste will build up in your gutters and cause clogs or ice dams. All of these things can cause water damage inside and outside the house, which makes drain guards very useful.
- Less cleaning: Cleaning out the gutters takes time and can be dangerous if the user has to climb up on the roof to do it. All you have to do to clean them is wipe the dried leaves and other debris off the top of the guard.
- Preventing vegetation growth: Aside from the natural debris that ends up in gutters, squirrels have been known to hide seeds in the cracks of gutters. This can cause unwanted flowers or plants to grow on the edge of your roof. Squirrels can’t hide their stash of seeds because of these guards.
Considerations for Installing
- Not maintenance-free: People often think that once they are set up, they don’t have to worry about their drains ever again. Even though they cut down on how often you have to clean your gutters, even the best products need to be cleaned sometimes. Your drain guard will work less well over time if it gets clogged up with small pieces of trash.
- Can add strain on the gutter system: Some guards are made of heavy materials that can put extra weight on your gutters if they are not well-fastened. To keep your home from getting damaged, we make sure to use the best quality and most effective type of gutter guard.

What Is The Best Gutter Guard?
We looked into the huge market for gutter guards and found that mesh styles are the best and most affordable choice for most homes. When we started putting them on houses in the Merrick, NY, area, we found that many homeowners also liked this method. We try to offer the solutions that work the best and are the best fit for each homeowner’s case.
What Makes Mesh Gutter Guards the Best?
Mesh allows the most water to flow through while still protecting the drain. The small holes in the mesh cover let water flow through without stopping, but they keep out sticks, bugs, and leaves that could be a problem. Even if they do collect waste over time, they are much easier to clean than gutters without mesh guards.
