Mon, 15 Mar 2010 01:51:43 +0000 http://www.thegutterclub.com/?p=71#comment-104 After over 20 years of cleaning my rain gutters, I've finally found the perfect method of keeping them clean without the use of a dangerous ladder. I got a brand new, American Made, lightweight attachment tool, that should fit most standard 2.5" wet/dry vacuum hoses. It is a one-piece, 60" long, durable, pvc tool that fastens snugly onto the vac hose. When I put it into the rain gutter and turn my vac on, it literally vacuumed out all gutter debris, wet and dry junk, while I stayed firmly and safely on the ground. I saved myself money, time, energy, and most of all my own safety while doing a once nasty job that now is almost fun to do. This new rain gutter cleaning tool has been hailed as "the Best Gutter Cleaning Tool on the Market Today" and in my opinion it really is everything that other customers have said about it and more.. Check it out on their webpage and read all the comments and watch their videos and see why I'm so pleased with my find! C.J.

Fri, 12 Mar 2010 19:08:34 +0000 http://www.thegutterclub.com/?p=20#comment-99 Hi Joe, I am a leaffilter dealer/Installer leaffilter works perfect with a metal roof it is they best gutter guard on the market for a metal roof application. Main reason is that it mounts just to the gutter it does not need to be mounted to the roof under the shingle like most gutter guards. Leaffilter gutter guard is the only micro-filtration gutter guard that does not mount under the roof shingle. I install it all the time on gutters that handle water from a metal roof. It sounds like who installed the system has a lack of experience, One of two things can be done if you are having a problem with water over shooting the gutter guard from a metal roof or any roof, If one of the steps below are taken it will fix the problem. First you could install the service screen/valley screen witch is a more pouris filter that will handle they extra water flow, this 90% of the time will fix the problem. Second If the problem persists what will need to be done is you will need to have a six inch gutter installed, intern you will have more of a filter surface to handle the extra water flow If you have more questions on this give me a call at 877 573 2653. If leaffilter is properly installed and the right steps are taken when a problem arrises it can be eradicated 100% of the time. I believe leaffilter is they best gutter guard on the market with over 700,000ft installed personally from our company we never had a call back we could not fix and we never had a single clogged gutter!!!!!!!!

I lve on 5 acres of pine trees. So I thought this would take care of the pine needles. IT DID NOT!. The pine needles do not blow away because it is too cold and wet all winter. I live in the Olympia Wa area. I call the company because the system did not work on my house. So the sent out someone to look at them. The day he arrived we had a cold spell and everything was frozen. So he took pictures. He said he would talk to his boss. I told him I wanted them taken off and I wanted a refund because the did not work. Never heard from them . So I call them. They told me that they only guarentee that the gutters will not clog. They do not clog , now they do not work at all . Now all the water just runs over them. So now I have to have them taken off so my gutters will work again.i am now thying to figure out what to use that might work better.

My wife and I live in the woods in Ohio and we have tons of pine trees in our yard. I'm wondering if maybe you just had a bad installer who didn't know what they were doing. The dealer in my area is very reputable. I checked them out with the BBB before I bought. Sorry you had a bad experience but if anyone else reads this, I would recommend this system to anyone.

Gutter or no gutter drip edge is one of the only ways to keep water from coming off the roof and getting your fascia board wet. They usually install with 4 or more inches of metal extending under the first layer of shingles giving you another layer of protection although not where the nails are driven in to hold it to the roof decking. With out a drip edge no gutter would work very well because a lot of water would get between the gutter and fascia boards.
