In our neck of the woods, Central Virginia, we regularly get not only light showers of rain, but also torrential downpours, thunderstorms, and hurricanes. This means that as rain comes down and sheets off your roof, the water that collects around your home can dangerously erode the soil around your foundation. In addition, if you have a basement, it can easily become flooded or saturated with water seeping in as the water that flows off of your roof soaks into the ground below.

Square gutters are probably what you're used to seeing. They can be either low or high, depending on whether you want to hide the lowest few inches of your roof. Square gutters are the most common, and are easily installed. Because of their design, they can be best for areas like Central Virginia where we get a wide variety of rainfall: from light showers and grey days, to hurricanes.

Rounded gutters, or half round gutters as they're sometimes called, have a clean and smooth shape that's exactly as it sounds - it's a half-circle. These wide gutters can carry a lot of water, and because of that they're usually pretty easy to keep clean. Because they are so smooth, leaves and other debris don't build up as much, which can make them easier to manage and maintain over time.

LeafBlaster Pro

LeafBlaster Pro™ gutter guards are made from a flexible stainless steel micro-mesh that avoids rusting or warping and blocks the tiniest debris. The Z-Bend Technology improves water flow by keeping debris off the mesh and out of your gutter, making rainwater harvesting easier. Additionally, the LeafBlaster Pro™ comes with a 40-year warranty to protect you against any defective parts.

Gutterglove Pro

Gutterglove Pro™ delivers flexibility and innovation by combining type 316 stainless steel micro-mesh with a sturdy frame. This brand of gutter guard uses V-Bend Technology which is designed to lift large debris, like leaves, off of the mesh so it can naturally blow off the gutter. The frame is made of anodized aluminum, making it strong enough to stand against hazards like small tree branches.

MicroMesh Pro

Mesh gutter guards are similar to screen guards, but mesh guards don’t get clogged as easily because they have the smallest holes. MicroMesh Pro uses highly advanced micro mesh, along with a durable and sturdy frame using V-Bend Technology, to keep pine needles, leaves and roof sand grit out of your gutters. This gutter cover can fit on almost any existing type of gutter and roof.
