Gutter Guards
If your home is surrounded by trees, gutter guards can help prevent your gutters from getting clogged with debris. These protective systems sit on top of the gutter, allowing water to flow through while keeping leaves, pine needles and other debris out. This means you can clean your gutters less frequently without worrying about water damage to your home.

Types of Gutter Guards
Gutter guards act as a protective liner that prevents debris from entering the gutter. The main requirement is that they are porous to allow water to enter the gutter and flow through the downspout. There are a few types of gutter guards available that are made from different materials. These include:
- Screen
- Mesh
- Micro-Mesh
- Surface Tension
- Brush
- Foam
Of these materials, micro-mesh is considered the best. Because they have extremely small holes, they prevent almost all debris from entering the gutter. Micro-mesh guards need to be professionally installed, but the tradeoff is that the gutters will need to be cleaned far less often.

Why Guards are Important for your Gutters?
The main reason people install guards for their gutters is to keep debris from building up in their gutters. However, they have numerous other benefits as well. They prevent pests such as birds, squirrels, and mosquitoes from entering the gutter. They also help prevent your gutter from rusting prematurely, since moisture will not be getting trapped beneath leaves. Finally, guards can strengthen your overall rain gutter system. They are often fastened to the fascia of the house and the lip of the gutter. This provides an extra weight bearing surface against ice and snow.
Micro-mesh guards are an important component in protecting your home from water damage. A professionally installed micro-mesh guard will drastically reduce the amount of maintenance your gutter will need. On The Edge Gutters offers gutter guard installation in Sedona, Arizona.
