See What Our Buffalo Customers Have to Say

“Had leaf filter come in about 2months ago so far I’m very happy with our results. I have a house with an apartment over garage they replaced old gutters with new and installed the leaf guard to the main house, the garage had newer gutters that they cleaned out and made sure they were aligned correctly and only replaced my downspouts at my request.”

I am totally blown away with the company’s professionalism, product and people. This company knows how to deliver customer service.”

“I examined a number of different gutter guard systems and reviewed each thru the BBB and CR reviews.

Buffalo’s Climate Challenges
Western NY Weather Tests Gutter Systems
From Amherst to Clarence, Western New York’s diverse climate patterns create year-round challenges for homeowners’ gutter systems. The region’s mature tree canopy, combined with lake-effect precipitation and dramatic seasonal changes, can lead to foundation damage without proper gutter protection. LeafFilter protects homes across Buffalo’s neighborhoods from these challenging conditions.
Spring
Across Western NY, spring brings heavy rainfall and maple tree helicopters. LeafFilter’s micromesh technology handles both melting snow runoff and organic debris, protecting your home’s foundation from water damage.
Summer
Buffalo’s summer thunderstorms deliver intense downpours while maple, oak, and elm trees shed debris. These conditions can overwhelm gutters with a mix of water and organic material.
Fall
Lake-effect rain combines with falling leaves from Buffalo’s dense urban forest. The mix of maple, oak, and birch leaves creates potential blockages that can compromise water flow.
Winter
Lake Erie drives heavy snow accumulation across Buffalo neighborhoods. Debris in unprotected gutters can contribute to ice formation, while LeafFilter’s design helps maintain proper water flow.
Did You Know?
Based on Buffalo’s ~42 inches of yearly precipitation, a single story 2,000 sq. ft home gutter system will handle over 52,374 gallons of water annually.
Buffalo NY’s Trees – Lake Effect Legacy
Buffalo’s urban forest, influenced by Lake Erie’s unique weather patterns, creates distinct challenges for homeowners. From the historic Elmwood Village to North Buffalo’s tree-lined streets, the combination of lake-effect snow, heavy rainfall, and diverse foliage demands reliable gutter protection. LeafFilter’s micromesh technology is engineered to protect gutters from common debris throughout Buffalo’s four seasons.
Lake-Hardy Maples
Sugar and Norway maples, abundant in Delaware District and Parkside, shed helicopter seeds and leaves that can lead to clogged gutters. LeafFilter’s proven system prevents these common debris from entering gutters, protecting homes from water damage.
Heritage Elms
Buffalo’s disease-resistant elms, particularly in the Elmwood Village, produce seeds and leaves that can clog gutters. Our locally trained installation professionals provide customized gutter systems backed by a lifetime transferable warranty.
Buffalo’s Evergreens
White pines and spruces throughout North Buffalo shed needles year-round, especially during lake-effect storms. LeafFilter’s 275-micron stainless steel mesh is engineered to prevent these common debris from causing gutter clogs.

Different Types of Gutter Guards Explained
Brush Guards
In Buffalo’s climate, brush-style guards require frequent maintenance as debris settles between bristles. Common issues include maple seeds and oak leaves becoming trapped, while winter brings unique challenges as snow and ice accumulate within the brush structure. Homes near Delaware Park’s mature trees require frequent gutter maintenance with brush-style systems.
Foam Inserts
Foam insert guards typically last 2-3 years in Buffalo’s weather conditions before requiring replacement. These inserts become breeding grounds for moss in shaded areas, especially near the Elmwood Village’s tree-lined streets. During heavy Lake Effect storms, foam can become waterlogged, reducing effectiveness and potentially causing gutter sagging.
Screen Guards
Screen guards with various mesh sizes struggle with Buffalo’s diverse foliage. Smaller debris like pine needles from local conifers can clog the openings, while larger mesh allows seeds to penetrate. In winter, screens may collect ice and require professional maintenance to prevent damage to the gutter system.
Reverse Curve/Hood Guards
Professional installation is crucial for reverse curve guards, as improper angles can lead to overflow during Buffalo’s intense summer storms. These systems may collect debris on top, especially during fall leaf season in areas like North Buffalo. Winter presents additional challenges when ice forms along the curve.
LeafFilter’s Micromesh Technology
LeafFilter’s surgical-grade stainless steel micromesh is specifically engineered to handle Buffalo’s unique challenges. The 275-micron fine mesh blocks even the smallest debris while utilizing surface tension to maximize water flow. Unlike other systems, our uPVC frame never deteriorates in extreme temperatures, and our pitched design prevents debris accumulation common to other guard types.
Professional Installation vs DIY
Before climbing a ladder, ensure that you have thoroughly read and followed all safety instructions.
Installing gutter guards in Buffalo homes requires special consideration due to the region’s intense lake-effect snow, frequent freeze-thaw cycles, and diverse architecture from Elmwood Village to North Buffalo. These factors, plus seasonal debris from Delaware Park’s maples, demand professional expertise.
Safety First Approach
Our fully trained and insured local professionals are experienced with Buffalo’s challenging weather, including annual snowfall exceeding 95 inches. They follow rigorous safety protocols while protecting your home’s gutters in all seasons.
Proper Installation Equipment
