FlexxPoint 30 Year Gutter Cover System, Matte Residential 5" Gutter Guards, 22ft

You can put some of these gutter guards on to keep leaves and debris out, but if you live in an area that gets a lot of snow and ice you might not want to use them. I have always been in the construction field and tried different gutter guards, and every time I talk to a rep about their gutter guard, they all tell me theirs work most effectively. Gutter guards collect droplets of water on top of the guard, and this is what freezes. As soon as you glance up, the top of the shield has frozen to a solid state. After that, they appear in For the past two years, I've had mine on a home that doesn't get ice. We removed them from our premises As of now, I will clean the gutters. Additionally, the water will run over the edge of your gutter if it rains quite heavily. We cannot recommend it in climates with a lower temperature.

During the learning process, it became apparent that the much-anticipated I did a little research on Consumer's Report and found out that the Gutter Helmet system did not get high ratings. Since I also need some sort of leaf guard system on my gutters, I ran it by my neighbor as well, which cost him $30/ft. A system that was also durable aluminum at 40 cents/ft was recommended, but after visiting Amazon, watching some YouTube installation videos, and looking at some Amazon reviews, I crossed that one off my list as it was Yet, I did find the FlexxPoint system while browsing Amazon, and it was highly rated by its users, as well as the type of system I was looking for according to Consumer Reports. The customers loved it, and I bought a few pieces weeks ago, since the price was right at 76 cents/ft and it installed easily. In the past 90 days, I have installed the FlexxPoint 5" white gutter guards on all 120 feet of my gutters, as well as half of the gutters at my daughter's house (50 ft thus far), and I have enjoyed using the In general, the installation process is quite straightforward. It may take awhile if the shingles curl into the gutters in any way. To fix that you will need to shift the guard back up under the shingles to ensure it is seated properly, or you will also need to lift the shingles to get them up. If necessary, use a screwdriver with a handle. Usually there isn't much of a problem with this I find it to be more of an annoyance No matter what gutter guard system you purchase, this problem will present itself. Cleaning and hosing out the gutters, so they're ready to receive gutter guards, takes up about one third of the total installation time. A power drill is required to drill the screw holes, and then to screw in the guards. When you tighten down the screws, make sure you use the slow speed to avoid stripping out the holes. In each box of 25, there are four 4 x 4 cards Each foot section of gutter guards comes with one box of 100 size 8/18, 3/4 inch zinc plated screws and one box of 150 size 8/18, 5/8 inch zinc plated screws for securing the front side (more than is needed, When it comes to the long run, worry about it In order to ensure that the screws will not rust in the long run, apply Rustoleum rust-proof primer to each screw head after installation, using a Q-tip I followed up this tip with a dab of Rustoleum white gloss rust-proof enamel 24 hours later. These screws are much cheaper than In an e-mail, Flexxpoint told me that they recently switched to stainless steel screws for their gutter covers, even though many contractors have told them that zinc-plated screws have been holding up very well over the years on gutters and have not been In order for a section's meet area to be rigid and strong, there needs to be an overlap of sections. There was a reviewer who reported that the aluminum used in these gutter guards is as thin as that in soda cans. As a result, after measuring the field with a high-precision Using a high-quality digital caliper, the Flexxpoint cover is almost six times thicker than the one on The width of a quarter inch is 0025 inches. As compared to The thickness of the wire is 114 mm. It seems that a stronger, more durable grade of aluminum alloy, which is suited to gutter products that have to last for years, would be used for single-use gutter products. Cans of beverage can be used. In order to learn more, I made a phone call to Flexxpoint in Huron, Ohio, where Mike confirmed that gutters are made of a much more durable aluminum alloy than I would recommend this system to anybody who is looking for a very nice system.

With my house sitting on an extra lot with mature trees, I have fallen in love with this product. I have been cleaning out my gutters every month to prevent leaves and debris from building up. This is especially true since my gutters drain into an underground pipe that takes the runoff It was a nightmare to clear the clog! After installing the covers, I have not seen a leaf in the drain pipe or in the gutter since installing them! must admit that I wasn't expecting much at first, but these have worked very well for me! I was able to install in no time. As they snap right into the gutter, the corners can easily be trimmed with a pair of scissors, making it look as if it were professionally installed. As a result of the roof installers leaving way too much material when they installed it, I had to trim off 3" of my asphalt shingles in order to fit the guards properly. I'm going to buy a second set to use in my rental property! We are very impressed with the quality of the product and how easy it is to install! This is my first time buying these and I'm happy they are.

I have hauled out the ladder 2 every 10 years for the past ten years A gutter needs to be cleaned 4 times a year. When I got lazy, the leaves would sit in the gutters all winter and melted snow would freeze, weighing them down, and I finally realized it was a problem when the drains became clogged and the drains backed up, and the gutters began to leak after spring. As you can see, the picture is pretty clear. Installing gutter guards would be of interest to me. An estimated cost of over a thousand dollars was quoted by a local company! I was going to have gutter guards installed that had a thirty-year Well, let's go to Amazon now. I was able to find these at a tenth of the price. There was even a screw included! My gutter guards are self-tapper screws and are perfect. They fit my 5" gutters perfectly! I have 85' of gutters on the front of my house and 85' of gutters on the back. Clean the drains and make sure they are clear with a garden hose. This is very time consuming to install, so I expected it to take several hours. Not at all. I worked on it for three hours in total. All the rooms in the This is what I did, but with a magnetic 1/4-inch It's kind of a must, actually. The helicopter season began before these were installed. They are doing an excellent job as you can see from the photos! During the next year, I will keep track of how well they do. As you probably know, it rains a lot, leaves fall, helicopters hover over the maples, and it snows. Several of these have been around my neighbour for more than a decade and hold up well. In other words, bottom line. I wanted a DIY solution that would cost a tenth of what a company would charge and be as easy to install and cut as possible with tin snips. Perfect This kit comes with more than enough hardware, is not visible from the ground, and has all the features seen in the photos. It seems that they are doing their job well.
