Leaf Guard Gutter Systems
A big urban myth is that all leaf guard systems keep stuff out of the gutters. Fact is some of them contribute to the problem instead of helping. Any kind of outdoor system has to be strong enough and designed correctly to perform the intended function the way it is expected to work. It can be frustrating to witness water spilling over the gutters in the middle of the house instead of draining properly to the down spouts. With Alu-Rex gutters leaves, falling debris, snow and ice are all diverted to the down spouts and drained properly away from the house. These are the ultimate Gutter Guards for Vancouver homes
Gutters Vital To Drainage
Drainage around a home is a combination of landscape slope, perimeter drains, sewers and gutters. All of these things must work in unison or water could find its way into the basement, causing thousands in damage. Insurance coverage for this kind of disaster is important in these situations but imagine the yard dug up, the basement flooded and furniture, walls and appliances damaged from a basement flood.
Maintenance Tips
Check your gutters twice a year to determine whether or not they need to be cleaned. Sometimes they are okay for quite a long time, but in most cases traditional gutters plug up with dirt, leaves and tree droppings. In extreme cases plants start growing in the gutters making the house look like a back woods cabin.
