Large Oak trees surround our neighborhood and gutters here in northern Virginia often are clogged with leaves and branches. I put the Leafblaster Pro gutter guards on the front of the house last year and saw an immediate improvement. Now, I put a second set on the back gutters. I'd rather take care of gutters now, then have water back into the roof and eventually walls and have a much bigger problem to fix. I'm a fan.
With elm trees in the front, pine trees along the side, and a maple in the rear of the house I was cleaning gutters daily with a blower. Now I just sit back and relax knowing I may never need to break out the gutter attachment again! Let it rain...
Not sure yet as this was my first encounter with this product. It does appear to be well made and quite strong so I hope it will standup to hail we do get on occasion. I do believe it will keep out all the leaves.
We have only just had these gutter guards installed, so I can't say with any credibility how they will work. However, they look very solid and rigid - much better than what we had before. The look after the work was completed was fantastic! It also rained yesterday and the gutters worked great! Downspouts were pushing out the water, so it was definitely coming through the guards. Very satisfied so far.
So far, so good...but I still need to clean pine straw from top of gutter guards. Some were bent in the corners which allows dirt to get in the gutters.
We are just now installing, so we cannot let you know about the performance. As far as we can tell they should work great, we have pine trees and it will keep the needles out of the gutters. We are very satisfied with the quality.
LeafBlaster seems to be working as expected. Occasional buildup of small pine needles need to removed for optimal performance, but mainly just inside corners with high water volume diverters that were part of the original gutter installation that stick up and catch leaves/needles.
After bad experience with a vinylbased product, I did considerable research online, including YouTube, and feel this to be a superior product in the long run.
It was just installed less than one week ago, looks great, and very pleased with installerl.
Being a single mom gutter cleaning (of leaves at least) comes low on the priority list. I knew it needed to be done before it became a problem & needed to not have to worry about it. I researched & found the micro mesh covers & that seemed perfect. Add in the 40yr warranty & I was sold. I'm in Northern CA so we're not getting a lot of rain right now, but I'm glad that when we do I have one less problem. The gutter guards I first looked at in the stores had gaps that smaller flotsam & jetsom would easily pass through... Why waste money on that? The micro mesh will keep everything out.
I called 99 dollar gutter cleaners who did an awesome job cleaning & installing the leaf pro mesh... If you're in the Bay area I highly recommend them.
We've had the new gutter guards for just a month now. We have had a lot of rain these past few weeks and the guards appear to be letting the water flow into the gutters, and keeping the debris out. Both of those were past problems for our home.
Answer: White pine needles do penetrate through the screen and get stuck.
Answer: Yes, but you can bend them and attach to the fascia instead of going under the shingles.
Answer: The only comparable product that I am aware of is Leaf Filter, which is outrageous in price! LeafBlaster is a MUCH better value than Leaf Filter.
