Poor design
Installed gutter glove guard 1 month ago in Michigan first snow they iced up and when the snow started to melt the gutter guard wouldn’t let the water in the gutter then froze after it went over the edge of the gutter and made an ice dam and ice cycles dripping off the gutter 2 snow did the same not made for winter weather removed and returned
Installs easy. Looks good. Should work good too.
Easy install on my asphalt roof. Installed first box in 40 minutes going 42 feet long. I had a box of 44'. Looks good. No issues on install. Not sure yet how well it works but will see after next rain. I also got a free brush for registering coming in 2 weeks. Apparently to sweep off top if leaves collect?
Good product, poor packaging.
Good product that is easy to install. I've used the other gutter guards with larger openings and pine needles, certain types of oak and elm leaves just seemed to stay stuck in them year round. Skeptical at first, after installing a short section I tested them out using a water hose to see how well the water ran into them. Most of the water just ran off instead of going into the gutters! Then I read that the screen must be wet before they would allow water to penetrate the screen. Alas, they work awesome. I installed the remaining 300 ft. and have had two rains since. They work great and leaves will just roll off in the rain or blow off in the wind. No more gutters to clean! The only complaint I have was the packaging technique they use. Most of the ends of each section were bent during shi*ping which added significant time in having to straighten out each end with a pair of pliers. A small piece of foam rubber included in each end of the box most likely would have prevented this. For that, I can only give 4 stars.
GutterGlove Gutter Guards
Was having Leaf Filter installed on my home. Checked their work and they were shortcutting on the installation. I cancelled their installation and went online and purchased GutterGlove, silicon sealant for gutters and was even able to buy the hidden gutter supports. Spent about $1,000 in material and I couldn't be happier with the GutterGlove product.
Best home purchase in a long time
Excellent product. Bought on sale last month and installed. High quality. The company has great installation videos and tips online. Installation was easy and able to do myself . I was a couple pieces short to complete the job and was able to contact the company and order what I needed. Shipped out quickly. Definitely recommend
Extreme quality, Great Service, Easy to Install
My father-in-law wanted to install gutter guards on his house. A local contractor quoted us a price of $1,250.00 to install 266’ of gutter guards. Fortunately he failed to show up. I decided to do the work myself and researched various options. I elected to go with the Stainless Steel Gutter Guard Kits from Sam’s Club. The available on-line reviews were almost unanimously favorable and Sam’s Club had the best prices I could find. I ordered three kits on 3 June, for a total of just over $600 which included the taxes for my area. The kits arrived via FedEx on 12 June. All kits arrived in good shape and each kit included the necessary screws, a magnetized bit holder and an extremely helpful & thorough instruction booklet. I studied the instructions (which are available on the Sam's Club product page and are pretty straight forward) and reviewed the manufacturer's instructions, also available from the product information page. The install went extremely easy despite 95 degree temperatures with 90 percent plus humidity. The only thing I did differently from the instructions was to use a mini-grinder to cut the guards. It was significantly easier than using tin snips. It took me three days to complete the job working alone for about four hours per day. I’m 65 years old and I’m pretty sure I could have done it in one day back when I was a bit younger. The hardest part of the job was moving a 24-foot ladder every 4 feet. I did need to get some extra screws from the manufacturer and contacted them via e-mail. I actually got a call back from the company’s owner offering assistance. I also got a return e-mail from the customer service folks advising me that they’d sent me the extra screws. Advice: #1 Read & heed the instructions; they’re great, #2 Visit the website and watch the video for your particular roof type a couple of times – well worth the time, #3 Register your product since it extends your warranty period by 15 years to a total of 25 years! I can’t overrate this product: the price was right, the product is high quality, the service was great and my father-in-law saved about $600. One other item: a stand-off for your ladder is imperative. Without it your ladder is resting against the gutters and makes the install a lot more difficult.
Easy to Install on Tile Roof
Have concrete tiles on my roof in Arizona. Was very easy to install the Gutter Guards. Put on a good pair of gloves and just slid the bottom tile up about 8". After attaching the Gutter Guard with the tape, I lifted and slid the tile back in place, being sure that the tile extended beyond the edge of the fascia board. I did not need any screws as the weight of the concrete tiles held the rear portion of the Gutter Guard in place. See attached photo.
Disappointed
We installed the Gutter Guards on half our gutters. The next heavy rain we checked and were disappointed to see all the gutters with the Gutter Guard were dripping water over the front edge. Not running water from the roof, but big droplets running from the front edge of the gutter down and around to the bottom and dropping down all along the underside.The gutters without the Gutter Guard were not dripping water. They look like they will keep leaves and other debris out, but the water traveling across the Gutter Guards to drip makes entering and exiting our home unpleasant and wet. Additionally, the reason for the gutters is to eliminate water against our basement walls by channeling away from the house at the downspouts. We had to buy longer self tapping screws to install these Gutter Guards. The ones that were supplied with this kit were too short to go through the guard and our gutter. Only one or two threads actually grab the metal and if you tighten the screw with an electric driver for a half second too long, they just strip out.
Gutterglove Gutter Guard Kit
It has been over three months since I purchase this product from Sam's Club. I have tried many different types of gutter guards and they all eventually failed. They either cave in, the rain goes over them in a heavy storm or they wear. These guards are very well made and designed. They are not all stainless. The screen is heavy stainless steel. The leading and trailing edges are thick aluminum. The screen is so tight; it will not allow shingle crumbs to enter. You will need to brush the surface off once a year, or maybe more if you get a lot of pine needles. The guards are easy to install, however, I suggest you use a miter cutoff saw with a metal cutting blade to cut angles or different lengths. Both leading and trailing edges are thick aluminum. Trying to cut them with metal cutting shears or snips will wear you down quickly. The only problems are where splash shields were screwed on to the gutters. You will have to cut the leading edge off or drill holes to accept the metal screws (See photo). Each guard is 47.5" long. They come with hex screws. The leading edge also has an adhesive. You pull the red adhesive cover and the leading edge will stick firm. You might want to clean the gutter edge so the adhesive will stick. I used a few screws for short cut lengths. I highly recommend you "do it yourself" people purchase these shields. My gutters have taken very heavy rain, wind and debris and if you install correctly and follow the directions and tips, you will finally have worry free gutters. For the past three months, the gutters are still clean with no mold, mildew, rot, water or plants growing from wet shingle crumbs and debris. Good luck.
Very Nice Product
Purchased these after quote from "that" company that advertises on TV, newspapers and periodicals. The cost of their installation for their product was through the roof. I installed these in no time flat. The only drawback is cutting these. I began using tin snips and eventually hurt my wrist because of the difficulty getting through the front and rear metal. Reverted to a hack saw to get through the front and trailing edges. The mesh cuts like butter using tin snips. I chose not to use the self adhesive tape just in case I wanted or needed to remove a panel. Mitering the corners was a bit of a challenge due to my metal roof nad roofing caps. All in all I would definetly recommend these gutter guards. I hope they hold up because I just completed installation a week ago. I don't see why they wouldn't hold up (to hurricanes as well) because they're well made. Best part about this is I will no longer have to clean out my gutters and you cannot see them from the ground. Cheers!
