Gutters On The Side Of AHome With Gutter Guards Installed On Them

How Long Do Gutter Guards Last?

A Guide To Your Future Gutter Guards
Installation Investment


Gutter guards are an excellent investment that will save you time on home maintenance. Professionally installed gutter guards in Sicklerville, NJ can help prevent roof and gutter damage. During consultation and installation, many homeowners ask a great question – how long do gutter guards last?

Some types of gutter guards last just a few years. However, the stainless steel mesh gutter guards installed by Ameritech Services will last you decades.


Your Gutter Guard’s Lifespan Depends
On Material And Installation

Like many pieces of home equipment, two things affect how long your gutter guards will last: material and installation.

What Are The Best Materials For Long-Lasting Gutter Guards?

Some companies install plastic or vinyl gutter guards. Since the weather in New Jersey is often harsh, you’ll find that plastic or vinyl gutter guards won’t last more than a few years – they are not designed for constant exposure to such extremes.

Ameritech Services of Sicklerville, NJ installs only Xtreme gutter guards. Xtreme gutter guards are made of stainless steel and reflect our commitment to using only quality materials.

Stainless steel holds up under the stress of New Jersey weather significantly better than vinyl or plastic. Coupled with professional installation by Ameritech Services, Xtreme gutter guards can last you up to 20 to 30 years. This is about the same lifespan you can expect from your roof!

Professional Gutter Guard Installation Makes A Difference

Proper installation makes a difference in how well the gutter guard functions to keep stuff out of your gutters. A gutter guard that isn’t blocking your gutters from getting packed with nature’s debris isn’t helpful to your roof or home.

Sure, it’s possible to install gutter guards as a do-it-yourself project. The problem is that DIY installation can lead to problems that make your gutter guards less effective. Gutter guards aren’t easy to install properly on your own, and you could easily get hurt without expert knowledge.

Another interesting problem you might not know about is voided warranties.

Poorly installed gutter guards can void the warranty on your shingles, potentially costing you thousands if they fail.

Also, gutter guards purchased and installed through a professional gutter guard installation servicer like Ameritech Services in Sicklerville, NJ have better warranties. This is especially true compared to some gutter guard products purchased online or elsewhere.


Why Would I Want Gutter Guards On My Home?

Keeping your gutters clear of debris is essential for their proper function. So, an annual trip up a ladder is a necessary evil if you want water and snowmelt to flow away from your home. If you’ve ever tried clearing clogged gutters, you’ll know it’s a scary, unpleasant activity.

Many homeowners simply refuse to take the task on. You can often spot them by the small trees growing from their gutters.

Gutter guards reduce the amount of maintenance you need on your gutters and protect your roof and gutters from unnecessary damage. If your gutters get clogged and overflow, the water can seep into your roofline or fall to the ground, damaging your foundation.
