How Our Low-Maintenance Gutter Protection Systems Are Installed

There are two basic methods of installing a screen gutter guard and all methods are a variation of one of these two, depending on the type of roof you have. Our low-maintenance gutter systems are secured to the outer edge of your guttering using a colour steel or copper 90° trim. The mesh is then fitted to your roof either over long run iron roofing or under a row of tiles. 

Valleys are fitted in a similar fashion with the gutter screen mesh once again going either over long run iron or under tiles.

When fitting over long run iron, the mesh is either secured to the roof with high tensile (0.55 BMT) saddle clips or pinned to the side of the riser depending on the long run roof profile.

The finished appearance of your gutter protection system will vary between houses due to factors such as the pitch of the roof, type of roof and the height of the front of the gutter compared to your roof.
