Plastic gutter protection comes in many forms. These include simple plastic mesh screens that snap into the gutter, slotted plastic guards, sponge or foam inserts, and a variety of other combinations of gutter screens and inserts. All of these products share one common shortcoming: they are made of plastic. After long-term exposure to UV rays from the sun, plastic will become brittle and prone to breakage. This eventually happens to all plastic products, despite some brands’ claims of UV resistance. In addition, the heavy weight of snow and ice can deform plastic covers, causing them to collapse into the gutter and rendering them useless because they will not fit properly again.

Instead we use invisible gutter covers made of sturdy aluminum that is designed to keep the leaves, twigs and debris out of your gutters so it remains clog-free.
