Cleaning gutters is a time-consuming — and occasionally dangerous — task, and it likely does not make anyone's list of favorite chores. However, neglecting gutter cleaning can result in many problems. Undisturbed gutters can over time become host to bees and birds, and gutters full of debris can become food for roaches. Gutters full of stagnant water can grow mold and mildew, and clogged gutters may overflow, resulting in water damage to your home and lawn.
If your house is someplace where there is a lot of rain — and Rock Hill qualifies, sitting at the 70.8% percentile when it comes to average daily precipitation — then protecting your gutters becomes all that much more important, due to the fact that they need to do more work than gutters on an average house.

When you have gutter guards installed on your house in Rock Hill, you increase its value and reap many short- and long-term benefits. The most obvious benefit is that having gutter guards installed on your home cuts down on the need for gutter cleaning. Although nothing can eliminate the need for gutter cleaning, adding gutter guards greatly cuts down on the amount of time you (or your local gutter service technicians) will have to spend on a ladder.
Other benefits of installing gutter guards include less gutter overflow, which puts you at less of a risk for water damage and mold growth on your house and lawn. Gutters that don't sit full of standing water are less prone to premature corrosion or rust, which will over time save you money on repair and replacement. Covered gutters also avoid becoming homes for birds' nests and beehives, and avoid the accumulation of debris that attracts roaches and other insects.
There are six primary types of gutter guards. Foam and brush guards are easy to install on your own; mesh and screen guards can be installed by yourself, but generally should be installed by a professional; and micro-mesh and surface tension guards will always need professional installation.
All gutter guard types have their upsides and downsides, and the right kind for your house in Rock Hill will be based on several factors. It is a good idea to speak with a local Rock Hill installer to hear more about which types of guards they offer and which type is best for your home.
The cost of gutter guard installation in Rock Hill will be influenced by several factors. The first variable is the variety of gutter guards you have selected — different materials have different rates per linear foot. Next is the decision of whether you are installing the guards yourself, hiring a local Rock Hill contractor, or hiring one of the full-service installers operating in South Carolina. A full-service company can give you more guidance when you are choosing a gutter guard type and measuring your gutter system. Finally, there are the unique aspects of your home, including the size of your house and ease of access to the gutter system.
Speaking with one or more companies from our list of top-rated gutter service professionals and requesting a free inspection and estimate is the easiest way to get a rough idea of how much your gutter guard installation will cost.

In general, gutter guards are a good investment for any home. They can help prolong the life of your gutters, cut down on how much you spend on cleaning and repairs, and help your home look nicer. They lessen the chances of mold and mildew growth and keep your gutters from becoming host to birds and insects. In addition, when it is time to move to a new home, gutter guards can add extra value to your property as you are trying to sell it.
Online reviews, including those through the BBB, are an excellent place to start when it comes to verifying the reputation of a gutter guard installer in Rock Hill. The gutter services company that you ultimately choose should be able to describe how installation does or does not affect your roof warranty, and after an inspection they should be able to provide a written estimate. The company should also provide you with written information about their warranties and provide proof of insurance, in case of the unlikely event that one of their employees sustains an injury while on your property.
The price per linear foot for gutter guards will depend on the type of guards that you end up choosing. Take a look at our table above to estimate the price of gutter guards based on the size of your gutter system and the material you pick. Depending on the style of guard you choose, you may need to also factor in labor costs.
Many gutter guard companies will perform gutter cleaning services for an extra fee. To know if a specific company offers gutter cleaning services, you can look for them on our list of the best gutter service companies around the Rock Hill area, and contact them yourself to ask about extra services that they offer.
There are certain details that will influence which style of gutter guard is best for you. You will decide based on the usual weather in your part of South Carolina, the number and kind of trees surrounding your home, whether you like or hate when guards are visible from the ground, and of course the budget for your project. Your local gutter services technician can help you with the process of choosing the perfect gutter guards for your gutters.
Many full-service gutter guard installation companies provide a lifetime transferable warranty for their products. This not only protects you should your gutter guards fail, but the warranty is transferable to your home's next owner and as a result, will add value to your house when it comes time to sell it.
