LeafFilter: Baltimore Gutter Guards Experts
According to the State Climatologist Office, Baltimore, Maryland enjoys a mean temperature of 54.6ºF, with cold winters and warm summers. The city also experiences heavy rain year-round and around 21” of snow annually. All things considered, Baltimore homeowners have more than enough reasons to consider upgrading their gutters with high-quality gutter guards.
Gutter guards are products designed to be installed into gutters, adapting seamlessly to the existing structures (including the roof’s shingles, eaves, and fascia board). Their goal is to improve the management of water flow in home gutters and reduce the prevalence of clogs. Additionally, gutter guards also delay the need for gutter cleaning and gutter repair, as they contribute to increasing the lifespan of both old and new gutters.
Why is it so important to install gutter guards in Baltimore? Well, with canopy coverage of over 27% and average annual precipitation of 59”, the city is particularly vulnerable to clogged downspouts caused by pine needles and other tree debris, as well as issues related to water damage.
Why Use Gutter Guards in Baltimore?
By keeping debris out, gutter guards help to prevent clogs inside your gutters and significant water damage that can result, such as rotting fascia boards, flooded basements and cracking foundations. Gutter guards also prevent leaf buildup, which is a serious concern in Baltimore’s warm, verdant climate.
So how do you choose the best gutter guards in Baltimore? Here are some important questions to ask when choosing a gutter guard.
- How well do they keep leaves and debris out of gutters? Gutter guards should keep most leaves, pine needles and other debris from clogging gutters. The best gutter guards block debris as small as pollen and shingle grit from entering your gutters.
- Do they fit your existing gutters? Homeowners in Baltimore want to know if a particular gutter guard brand will properly fit their current gutter type and size.
- Are they durable? High quality gutter guards are made of durable materials like surgical grade stainless steel micromesh and uPVC frames that won’t warp or deteriorate.
- Will they prevent ice dams? Some specially designed gutter guards can help minimize ice buildup in cold climates.
- Do they come with a warranty? Good gutter guard brands often come with warranties against defects or clogging. The best gutter guard solutions are backed by a lifetime warranty.
