Leaves, twigs, and debris are your gutters' worst enemies. Our gutter guard installations in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, put an end to this constant battle, freeing you from the risky chore of gutter cleaning. We offer two main types of gutter guards: micro-mesh and reverse curve. Micro-mesh guards use a fine stainless steel screen with holes as small as 50 microns to block even the tiniest debris while allowing water to flow through. Reverse curve guards leverage surface tension to channel water into your gutters while shedding debris.
We can repair any existing issues before fitting the guards. For micro-mesh systems, we secure the frame to your roof and gutter, then snap the mesh into place. Reverse curve guards are attached directly to the gutter lip, creating a seamless look. These guards do more than prevent clogs. They reduce corrosion by keeping out moisture-trapping organic matter. In winter, they help prevent ice dams by promoting consistent water flow.
We use only non-reactive fasteners to attach guards, preventing galvanic corrosion between different metals. Our installations maintain your roof warranty by avoiding penetrations in most cases. With American Gutter Company, LLC's gutter guard installation, you'll enjoy a low-maintenance, high-performance drainage system that stands up to Iowa's toughest weather.
