The time invested and risks taken during gutter cleaning make the task unappealing for many homeowners. However, neglecting gutter care can cause a host of problems. Undisturbed gutters can become home to bees and birds, and debris-filled gutters can become food for roaches. Stagnant water sitting in your gutters can encourage growth of mold and mildew, and clogged gutters can overflow, resulting in water damage to your lawn and home.
While some gutter guards can be installed yourself, you may have some concerns regarding the amount of work it will take and whether the guards you install will have good longevity — in this case, finding a local Pickerington gutter guard installer will be your best move.
To assist you in the process, we've compiled a list of the top-rated gutter guard installation companies in and around the Pickerington area to help you select the right rain gutter services company for your project.

When you decide to install gutter guards on your Pickerington home, you add to its value and gain many short- and long-term benefits. The most obvious benefit is that adding gutter guards to your home lessens the need to clean your gutters. While there is nothing that can eliminate the need for gutter cleaning, adding guards greatly lessens the amount of time you (or your local gutter service professionals) will need to spend on a ladder.
In addition, gutter guards will lower the risk of gutters getting clogged and overflowing, preventing mold growth and water damage on your house and lawn. Gutters that are protected are also less vulnerable to premature rust and corrosion, helping you save on repair and replacement expenses. Last but not least, gutters with a cover avoid becoming home to beehives and birds' nests, and gutters that don't accumulate debris are less likely to attract insect pests such as roaches.
Gutter guards are generally one of six standard types, with different levels of installation difficulty. Foam and brush guards are simple to DIY; mesh and screen guards are more difficult and should be professionally installed; and micro-mesh and surface tension guards require professional installation.
There are pros and cons to every type of guard, and the type you choose to go with for your Pickerington home will be based on a handful of factors. You can reach out to a local Pickerington gutter guard installation company to ask about different guard types and decide which is best for your home.
The installation of gutter guards in Pickerington, Ohio, can be over a wide price range. One of many factors that will help determine this price is whether you do everything on your own, employ a local Pickerington contractor, or go with one of the full-service gutter guard installation companies that provide services in Ohio. The full-service company is going to be the most expensive, but usually offers the most support during the steps of the process such as measuring your gutters and choosing a type of guard. If you decide to go with an installation company, the labor costs will be decided by property-specific factors like the size of your home and how easy it is to access your gutter system. Finally, the price of materials will depend on what type of gutter guard you decide to go with.
The easiest way to obtain a rough idea of the cost of your project is to speak to at least one of the gutter guard service providers from our above list to ask about a free inspection and estimate.
