Gutter Guards

Your gutters catch rainwater and redirect it to the downspouts, protecting your home from water damage. Unfortunately, leaves, dirt, pine needles and other debris can enter and cause clogging. This will cause your gutters to overflow with water. Gutter Helmet of Minnesota can install the Gutter Helmet® gutter protection system for your home to prevent this from happening. Here’s how it works:

How does Gutter Helmet® Work?

We install Gutter Helmet over your existing gutter system. It completely covers your gutters and extends slightly past the edge. It leaves no vertical openings for debris, so everything will just fall to the ground. Its nose-forward design makes use of the principle of surface tension. Meanwhile, rainwater flows over the edge and into your gutters. Gutter Helmet is effective, which is why it has great reviews of gutter guards in Monticello, Minnesota.

You can observe surface tension by holding a glass sideways under running water. Observe how the water adheres to the side and underside of the glass. Even if you turn up the tap, water will still adhere. Gutter Helmet’s design leads to water clinging to its surface and flowing into your gutters, even though there are no vertical openings. Additionally, this product has a special textured surface that increases the effect of surface tension.

What are Its Features?

Gutter Helmet can greatly improve the performance of your gutter system. It prevents gutter clogs from forming, ensuring a smooth flow of water, even in heavy rain. In fact, our product can handle up to 22 inches of rain per hour. That’s twice the highest recorded rainfall by the U.S. Weather Service.

It also features horizontal stiffening ribs and heavy-gauge metal support brackets. This strengthens Gutter Helmet and your gutter system, protecting it from bad weather. It also comes with PermaLife™ High Performance Coating to protect the system’s surface. It will not peel, chalk or crack. It also protects the product from the effects of acid rain and saltwater. These features help our product receive excellent gutter guards reviews in Monticello, Minnesota, and throughout the rest of the country.

With Gutter Helmet, your home will be safe from the dangers of clogged gutters. You will also save significant time and money since you won’t need to clean your gutters as often.
