Keep Your Gutters Flowing, Season After Season
If your home is surrounded by trees, you know the routine. Leaves fill the gutters in the fall, seed pods clog them in the spring, and the gutters overflow every time it storms. Cleaning them takes time and money, and climbing a ladder to do it yourself is risky.
Gutter guards offer a better way. These covers sit over your gutters and block leaves, twigs, and debris while letting rainwater pass through. At KRC Roofing & Siding, we help you choose the right gutter protection for your home and install it properly, so your gutters keep working with far less maintenance.
Benefits of Gutter Guards
Less frequent gutter cleaning: spend less time and money on maintenance.
Fewer clogs and overflows, so water goes where it should.
Foundation and basement protection through better water flow.
Less fascia and siding damage from overflowing water.
Fewer pests: no standing water or debris for mosquitoes, birds, and rodents.
Reduced ladder risk, with fewer trips up to clean.
Longer gutter life, with less weight and moisture sitting in the gutters.
What Gutter Guards Can and Can't Do
- They do dramatically reduce how often your gutters need cleaning.
- They do keep out leaves, twigs, and most debris.
- They don’t make your gutters completely maintenance-free. Some fine debris can build up on top of the guards and may need an occasional rinse or brush-off.
- They don’t prevent ice dams on their own. Ice dams start on the roof because of heat loss from the attic.

Gutter Guard FAQs
Are gutter guards worth it?
For homes with a lot of trees nearby, yes. Gutter guards greatly reduce clogs, overflows, and how often you need to clean your gutters. For homes with few trees, regular gutter cleaning may be all you need.
How much do gutter guards cost?
The price depends on the type of guard, the length of your gutters, your roof’s height and pitch, and whether your gutters need repairs first. We provide a free, itemized estimate.
Will I ever have to clean my gutters again?
Much less often. Some fine debris can still collect on top of the guards, so an occasional check or rinse is a good idea. But the constant cleaning and overflows will be a thing of the past.
Do gutter guards work in heavy rain?
Quality, properly installed gutter guards handle most rainfall well. During extreme downpours, any gutter system can overflow. Proper gutter size, pitch, and downspouts all play a role.
Will gutter guards void my roof warranty?
They can if they’re installed incorrectly, for example by lifting or nailing through shingles. As a TAMKO-certified roofing contractor, we install gutter guards in a way that protects your roof and its warranty.
Do gutter guards prevent ice dams?
No. Ice dams form on the roof because of heat escaping from the attic. Gutter guards help keep gutters clear, but preventing ice dams requires proper attic insulation, ventilation, and roof protection.
Can you install gutter guards on my existing gutters?
In most cases, yes, as long as your gutters are in good condition. If they’re sagging, leaking, or undersized, we’ll recommend repairs or new seamless gutters first.
