Leaf Guard Products

A leaf guard is a protective gutter guard mesh installed over gutter systems to prevent leaves and debris from clogging gutters. A leaf guard is also known as a gutter protection system, gutter guard system or gutter mesh system. This innovative gutter guard solution enhances a home’s exterior maintenance by ensuring that gutters remain clear and functional. By blocking debris, gutter guards, like leaf guards, reduce the frequency of gutter cleaning and help prevent water damage and pest infestations. Leaf guards are especially useful in areas with heavy foliage. They are a long-term investment in preserving the integrity of a home’s gutter system and overall tile or metal roof health.

Leaf guards are not just for keeping gutters free from leaves; they offer many benefits for homeowners. Here’s how:

• Preventing Leaf Accumulation: Keeps gutters clear from leaves, debris, and other unwanted debris.
• Bird Proofing: Prevents birds and pests from nesting in gutters and roof cavities. For bird-proof gutter guard products, shop our bird-proofing products.
• Rainwater Harvesting: Ensures clean gutters for effective water collection.
• Bushfire Protection: Ember guard reduces risk by preventing embers from entering roof spaces and gutters in bushfire-prone areas. Please see our ember guard product range here if you require an ember guard solution.
• Reducing Maintenance: Minimizes the need for frequent gutter cleaning.
• Preventing blocked gutters: Protects against water damage due to clogged gutters that restrict water flow.

Leaf guards provide a comprehensive solution for maintaining gutter health and functionality, significantly enhancing a home’s exterior maintenance while offering added benefits like pest control and fire safety. 

Gutter guards are designed to keep gutters free from leaves and debris, thus preventing clogs. They cover the gutter troughs with a gutter mesh or guard, allowing water to flow freely while trapping and repelling leaves and debris. This minimizes the risk of water overflow and damage and reduces the need for frequent gutter cleaning. With gutter guards, homeowners can maintain a more efficient and longer-lasting gutter system, safeguarding their homes against water-related damages caused by clogged gutters.

Yes, of course. Homeowners can easily match the colour of their gutter guards with their roof and gutter for superior aesthetics. Our gutter guard kits come in a variety of Colorbond® colours to complement different roof styles and preferences. To colour-match your gutter guard products, match the gutter mesh and clips to the roof type and the trims to the gutter edge. For specific colour-matching advice, feel free to contact our customer service team or visit our website for a colour guide.

Installing gutter guards on tiled and metal roofs is straightforward with our step-by-step guides. For tiled roofs, our method ensures that the integrity of the tiles is maintained while providing optimal protection. Metal roofs require a different approach, focusing on secure attachment to the roof with clips and trims to seal the gutter mesh to the gutter edge. This ensures the gutter protection system can handle diverse weather conditions. View our YouTube videos on tiled roof installation and metal roof installation for comprehensive instructions.

Choosing an integrated mesh system for your roof valleys prevents debris accumulation and ensures smooth water flow. Our mesh system is specially designed to adapt to roof valleys’ unique angles and shapes, offering unmatched protection. For gutter guard installation guidance for roof valleys, refer to our YouTube video on tiled roof valley installation or Corrugated Roof Valley Installation.

Our gutter guard kits are tailored to fit specific roof types like Trimdek®, Klip-Lok®, and box gutters. Each kit comes with unique components suited to the roof’s design and water-handling capacity. For instance, each metal roof type requires a different gutter guard clip that matches the corrugation or rib for the perfect sea. Gutter protection systems for box gutters include a wide gutter mesh width to ensure the mesh spans across the roof gutters without sagging. To understand these differences better, check out our YouTube video on box gutter installation.
