A) The Rain Drain has several different options in gutter or leaf guard protection available to fit your particular needs.
- Downspout Strainers are an inexpensive solution that
fit into the top of your downspout and sift out the debris thatcause annoying clogs. - Ultra Flo Gutter Protection System is a black, powder coated steel mesh or leaf screen that locks into your rain gutter and prevents leaves from getting into your gutter and causing overflowing. Three sizes of openings (holes): Large hole = ¼ inch, small hole = 1/8 inch and MicroX = 1/16 inch. Also available in copper ( large hole only).
- SHUR FLO Gutter Protection System an aluminum cover that fits over the top of a gutter and like the Ultra
Flo, prevents leaves from getting into your gutter. Available in white, black and mill finish and works well for pine needles. - FREE-FLO Leaf Filter is an advanced leaf guard unlike any other on the market. It is made of ¾” thick industrial strength nylon which sits neatly inside your gutter and prevents even small debris from entering your gutter giving superior gutter protection. FREE-FLO Leaf Filter works on all gutter and roof types.
Q) What criteria should I use when deciding on a gutter contractor?
Obviously price is always a major concern. While most of your licensed gutter contractors will be in similar price range for a similar gutter system, you should shy away from any that are extremely out of that range (high & low). Also be aware that different material types, profiles and sizes in gutters & downspouts are not priced the same. You should ask your neighbors and friends about whom they used and if they are satisfied with the gutters system they got. It is generally best to hire a known contractor with a proven track record, as they will most likely still be in business if any service is needed in the future. You should feel comfortable with and have confidence in the level of service you are to receive with whomever you hire. Always hire a licensed contractor who carries liability and workman’s compensation insurance. These will offer you, the customer, protection from personal liability and recourse in the event of something going wrong. Also use local resources such as the Better Business Bureau to inquire about your prospective contractor before hiring.
