Top 3 Factors to Consider Before Installing Gutter Helmet®

By June 15, 2016October 18th, 2023No Comments

For over 30 years, a vast number of U.S homeowners have relied on Gutter Helmet® gutter guard systems to keep their gutters free of clogs and clutter. The patented nose forward design, ribbed surface, and heavy-duty mount all work as one to filter out debris and ensure a smooth flow of water or snowmelt into the gutters.

If you are planning to install Gutter Helmet gutter covers in Ashland, Virginia, you will need to consider these three broad factors, which MR. FIX-IT™ discusses below:

Installation Cost

Naturally, this is one of the first things that will come to your mind. However, while you will prefer a flat price quote, the actual cost will depend on the following factors:

• The size and structure of your home
• Number of building stories
• Roof pitch and slope
• Total length of your gutters

It is only after considering these factors that we will be able to provide a direct quote for your gutter guard installation.

Roof and Gutter Conditions

Gutters in bad shape are poor candidates for gutter protection systems. Likewise, your roof should be in prime condition in order to support the weight and structure of our gutter covers in Ashland, Virginia.

We will check the following:

• Cleanliness of the gutters
• Whether the gutters are installed properly
• General condition of the roof
• Current state of the fascia

Equipment and Accessibility

If we have to use special equipment to do your installation, then it can impact both overall costs and lead-time. Ease of access is another consideration since it will determine how long it will take our installers to complete the job.

Whatever the cost and time, you can be sure that it will be well worth your investment in the end. The cleaning costs and hassles associated with constant gutter maintenance will no longer be a thing of concern. Call MR. FIX-IT today at (866) 985-9437 for a free consultation on your gutter needs.
