Types of gutter guards
- Micro-mesh: fine stainless mesh that blocks leaves, needles and grit.
- Reverse curve (surface tension): water follows the curve in, leaves slide off.
- Screens: simple perforated covers for larger leaves.
- Foam and brush inserts: sit inside the gutter.
Choosing the right guard
Pine needles and small debris call for micro-mesh. Heavy leaf fall from big trees may suit a reverse-curve design. An installer will look at your trees and roof pitch before recommending one.

FAQ
Gutter Guards: common questions
Can guards go on my existing gutters?
Often yes, if the gutters are in good shape and pitched correctly. If not, installers usually recommend new gutters with guards together.
Do gutter guards stop ice dams?
No. Ice dams come from heat loss through the roof. Guards keep debris out; attic insulation and ventilation address ice dams.
