Is Gutter Guard Installation Right for Your Home?
Properties Surrounded by Deciduous Trees
If your home is close to trees that shed their leaves every autumn, gutter guards will save you a significant amount of time and money on repeated cleaning callouts. They are highly effective at preventing the build-up of thick, damp leaf litter.
Roofs with Heavy Moss Growth
For older or north-facing roofs in Scotland, shedding moss can be a constant issue, creating thick, heavy sludge in your gutters. Guards help to keep the worst of this moss out of the system, maintaining water flow.
Preventing Birds and Pests
Gutters can be an attractive place for birds to build nests, which can cause major blockages. Gutter guards physically prevent birds from accessing the gutter channel, stopping this problem before it starts.
Reducing Ladder Use and Maintenance
For those who prefer to minimise home maintenance tasks or have difficulty with ladders, guards offer peace of mind and significantly extend the time needed between professional gutter cleans.
Our Gutter Guard Installation Process
Step 1: A Full Gutter & Downpipe Clean
We never install guards over existing debris. The service begins with a thorough manual clean of your entire gutter system. We ensure every downpipe is clear and water is flowing correctly before we proceed.
Step 2: Selecting and Fitting the Right Guard
There are several types of gutter guards (brushes, grilles, etc.). We assess your gutter profile and the type of debris you experience to recommend and fit the most suitable option, ensuring a snug and secure fit.
Step 3: Water Flow Check
After installation, we perform a water test to confirm that rainwater can still enter the gutter and flow away freely to the downpipes. This guarantees the guards are not impeding water flow, even in heavy Scottish downpours.
Step 4: Honest Advice and Tidy-Up
We'll leave your property tidy and provide you with honest advice on any future maintenance. Gutter guards are low-maintenance, not 'no-maintenance', and we'll tell you what to expect.
Local Service for Local Conditions
Suitable for All Property Types
From modern bungalows in Inverurie to traditional granite homes in Aberdeen, we can fit gutter guards on most residential properties, ensuring a neat and effective installation.
Ideal for Rural and Coastal Homes

Gutter Guard Installation FAQs
Do gutter guards mean I'll never have to clean my gutters again?
+
They significantly reduce the frequency, but we don't call them 'zero-maintenance'. Some fine silt or roof grit can still wash through over time. We recommend a professional inspection every 2-3 years, rather than 1-2 times per year without guards.
Can the guards handle the heavy rain we get in Scotland?
+
Yes. We use professional-grade guards with a design that allows for high-volume water flow. A key part of our installation is testing them to ensure they can cope with a downpour without water overflowing.
Will gutter guards stop moss from my roof blocking the gutters?
+
They are very effective at keeping out the larger clumps of moss that cause the most significant blockages. A fine mossy sludge can sometimes still form on top of the guard over several years, which may require occasional light brushing.
Do you have to screw the guards into my roof or gutters?
+
It depends on the system, but most modern and effective gutter guards are designed to clip securely into the gutter profile itself, requiring no screws into the fascia or roof, thus not creating any new holes.
Will they work against pine needles?
+
This is a key area where we provide honest advice. While guards block most debris, very fine pine needles can sometimes pass through certain types of guards. If you have heavy pine needle fall, we will discuss the effectiveness and may recommend a different approach.
I already have old, broken gutter guards. Can you replace them?
+
Yes, absolutely. We can safely remove old, damaged, or poorly fitted guards, give the gutters a full clean, and then install a new, more effective system for you.
