Covered Gutters Do It Yourself

So far so good.

Covered gutters do it yourself.

Flexxpoint are considered the best covers for the gutters because of the fine mesh they have. But this tool still provides one of the best blow away protection after the debris has dried out. This mesh blocks the entry of larger particles and debris into the gutter but however the smaller particles can still enter the gutter system. With surface tension gutter covers water clings to the rounded nose of the guard and flows into the gutter while leaves and other debris fall off over the edge.

Each sheet can be cut into 12 4 inch wide strips that are 8 feet long. This gutter cover system comes with stainless steel fastener. I installed 136 feet of this gutter guard on my house. Each 100 foot roll will cover 200 feet of the gutter after being cut in half.

Surface tension guards work very well with leaves and other large debris. So if you come up with 375 lineal feet of gutter measuring all the way around your house you will need 2 rolls. Gutter contractors will gladly put gutter guards on your home for between 15 to 19 per linear foot and pro installation is strongly recommended for anything. If you buy sheets remember that one sheet will cover approximately 96 linear feet.

Small debris sometimes gets in but usually washes out the downspouts without a problem. I had the foam inserts but they allowed debris to collect.
