Gutter cleaning is a time-consuming — and sometimes dangerous — task, and one that likely does not make anyone's list of favorite chores. Neglecting gutter upkeep, however, can lead to even greater problems later on. Blocked gutters can overflow, can encourage mildew and mold growth, and can cause runoff damage to your home and your yard. An undisturbed gutter can be an enticing home for bees and birds, and a debris-filled gutter can attract roaches.
Although it is possible to install some types of gutter guards on your own, you might have some concerns regarding the difficulty of the work and how long the guards will last — in this case, employing a local Grain Valley gutter guard installer will go a long way towards helping you feel better.

Getting gutter guards installed on your Grain Valley home can offer both long- and short-term benefits. The biggest benefit is that putting gutter guards on your home reduces the need to clean your gutters. While there is nothing that can eliminate the need for gutter cleaning, adding guards greatly reduces the amount of time you (or your local gutter service company) will need to spend on a ladder.
In addition, gutter guards can help keep pests out. Well-protected gutters can avoid becoming home to birds' nests and beehives, and reducing debris buildup also helps discourage roaches and other pests that like to eat gutter waste. Guards also reduce the risk of water damage and mold growth and mitigate the chance of premature corrosion or rust on your gutters, which will save you money in the future on repair and replacement.
There are generally six types of gutter guards: foam, brush, mesh, screen, micro-mesh, and surface tension. The first four can be installed by yourself (although screen and mesh are usually more difficult and in most cases should be professionally installed), while micro-mesh and surface tension guards must always be professionally installed.
Every type of guard has its own pros and cons, and the best type for your home in Grain Valley will be decided by a number of factors. It is in your best interest to reach out to one or more local Grain Valley gutter guard installation companies to find out which types of guards are available, and which are best for you.
