Gutter Leaf Guards
Gutter leaf guards are for keeping the leaves off the gutters. Protection to gutter guard is essential in the protection of the gutters and home.

Leaf guard is a gutter system available in one-piece having built-in hood covering the bottom of the gutter and deflecting the debris and leaves. It permits the rainwater to drive safely and directly away from the residence.
Gutter leaf guards are of two types, and they are the surface tension models and the gutter screens. The model of the surface tension helps in closing the opening of the gutter thoroughly and is closer to the surface of the roof. These models have circular rims curved backwards, and does not permit the leaves and debris to roll over the edge.
Gutter screens have a web acting as a filter that offers a barrier to the debris and the leaves. Rainwater gets passed through the mesh and makes sure that the gutter is clean. Gutter screen has holes of various sizes, hence permitting the user to select the size they require. For larger debris, screens having large holes are suitable, whereas screens with small holes are perfect for small stones and leaves.
