Professional Gutter Guard Installation in Oklahoma City

Don’t Waste Time or Money Cleaning Gutters Every Season

One of the biggest contributors to gutter problems is the leaves, dirt, shingle granules, and other debris that end up in them. Cleaning your gutters on your own can be dangerous without the proper equipment. Clearing them is time-consuming if you can safely reach low gutters, and paying someone to do it each season adds up over time. At Mauping Construction, we offer property owners an alternative with our professional installation of gutter guard services throughout the Oklahoma City area.

What Are Gutter Guards?

Screen gutter guards are installed on top of your existing gutter system to help your home’s entire gutter system stay free of large debris buildup such as leaves, pine needles, and other debris. Gutter Guards can help save you money by greatly reducing the need for gutter cleaning services.When gutters without guards are left neglected, the debris from each season continues to build up. You may think dirt, granules, and leaves will wash right out the downspout. Unfortunately, most rainwater runoff doesn’t have the power to do that, and debris ends up getting stuck at the top of downspouts to clog gutters or at the base, leaving reduced drainage areas.Wet leaves and dirt turn to mud, getting packed in and creating significant blockages. This results in roofline gutters overflowing in the front and back, where water makes its way behind the siding. Downspouts will start to separate at the seam, causing leaks. With our gutter guards, water runoff will easily access the gutters and downspouts, while leaves, pine needles, and other debris don’t.

Protection for Any Type of Gutter

We offer gutter guard systems to fit any size, shape, and material of gutter. Most gutter guards involve a screen design that lets water flow directly into the channels. While the holes allow water to pass through easily, they are too small for most types of debris to fit in, leaving objects like leaves and pine needles to flow directly over the guards and off the roof. Additional styles may include fewer holes or plastic rigid covers. We will help determine which gutter guard system is best for your property based on the environment and type of roof.

Types of Gutter Guards we offer:

• Screen gutter guard
• Micro mesh gutter guards

How Do Gutters Guards Work?

Gutter Guards work by acting as a filter during wind and rain. As items come in contact with your gutters, the gutter guards prevent them from entering the gutter system and creating blockages that could back up the system and potentially lead to costly damages to your home or business. By acting as a filter, gutter guards allow water to pass safely through the gutter system and be dispersed as intended away from the structure.

Doesn’t Dirt Get Washed Down The Gutters?

The majority of rainwater runoff does not have enough power behind it to flush things like dirt and debris safely through your gutters and downspouts. Because of this, dirt and leaves caught in your gutter system quickly turn into mud and clumps and get caught up either at the top of the downspouts or at the base, making proper draining impossible. When this happens, gutters can overflow, causing water to make its way behind the siding of your home, and downspouts can begin to separate at the seam, causing leaks.

How Often Should Gutters With Gutter Guards Be Cleaned?

Gutter guards prevent larger items such as leaves and twigs from entering your gutter system, however, tiny particles can still build up over time and cause blockages. Because of this, it is still important to have your gutters cleaned at least twice a year. The great part is that because your home will have gutter covers and guards installed, cleaning will not be nearly as time-consuming or costly, because your home will have been protected!
