Know the Differences … Do your research BEFORE you buy!
Doing your research before you buy gutters isn’t overkill—it’s what separates a one-time investment from a recurring headache … and worse yet – Gutter Regret. On the surface, most gutter systems look similar, but the differences in design, materials, and especially installation determine whether your system protects your home or quietly causes damage over time. The wrong choice can lead to overflow in heavy rain, clogs from leaves and debris, ice buildup in winter, and water pooling around your foundation—all issues that often cost far more to fix than the gutters themselves.
Many products are marketed well but rely on screens, covers, or shortcuts that fail under real-world conditions. By researching first, you can understand how a system actually performs, how it handles volume and weather, what kind of maintenance it requires, and whether the warranty truly reflects long-term reliability. In the end, a little upfront research helps you avoid costly repairs, reduces ongoing maintenance, and ensures you choose a gutter system that’s built to perform—not just sell.
Lots of systems are available to keep the leaves out of the gutters, but most of those systems have design flaws that don’t show up until years later (usually in the form of rotted wood and roof issues). Get a clog free system designed to handle the leaves, and protect your home from water damage.
Why You Should Research Gutter Brands Before Buying Gutter Guards, Gutter Systems or Gutter Accessories
Before investing in Ever Clean Gutters—or any gutter system—it’s worth doing a little homework. Gutters are a long-term purchase, and not all brands perform the same. Here’s why researching first pays off:
- Beware of Gutter Hoods: Improperly installed gutter “hoods” may result in wood rot and or affect the roof shingle manufacturer warranty. Ever Clean Gutter System mounts to the fascia board up and under the roof’s drip edge, the right way!
- Beware of Gutter Mesh Screens or Gutter Toppers: Be cautious of any system whose basic function is limited to top filtration, such as gutter hoods that rely on holes or slots; they will soon fail when debris quickly fills all the holes and prevents any water from entering the gutter. These systems are NOT maintenance free.
- Beware of One-Piece Gutters: Guard yourself from potential wood rot and gutter overflow associated with a one-piece design is installed with pitch towards the downspout. Take the time to research the problems associated with them including clogging and overflow issues.
- Beware of Installation & Gutter Mounting: Did you realize clog free systems must mount to your fascia board behind the roof drip edge? They should never require any alterations to the existing roof like mounting under the shingles or installing any additional flashing/drip edge as either may void your roof’s manufacturer and installation warranties.
