@tvodden Yes, I tested it. It failed miserably. After several seasons the foam was clogging with organic debris. If I had left it on much longer, water would cascade over the gutter splashing onto the ground because it had no other place to go. So much debris had started to collect that the lower half of the first course of shingles was covered in a mat of debris. This held in moisture which accelerates deterioration of the shingle.
thanks for using your house as a test lab.
I know you prefer this micro mesh guard but was wondering if you have tested the product that is a type of open celled foam that gets droped into the gutters?
@eagles6521 I have to totally disagree. We have massive pollen in the East, Northeast and other parts of the nation. I’ve never seen the product clog from pollen. A hard rain washes the pollen away in no time. If your statement is true, then why isn’t there a video at your channel showing the product clogged with pollen and a follow up video three months later showing the guard after three or four big rainstorms? You know the old saying: Actions speak louder than words. Take action stop writing.
This product might be good for the north but in the south the mesh clogs from the pollen! this stuff is garbage!!!!!!!!!
How do I fix my gutter pro gutters? How do I clean out from under neith of them? I heared that the clips can break.
hmm. the stuff you like and recomend how do you install it does it go under the first row of shingles if so i hat to say this but if you just had a roof put on and you install thistype of gaurd you will void your waranty on your roof … any roofer will void he or shes waranty if the shingles are tampered with in any way
Why buy something you still need to go up on a ladder and clean your gutters. I thought if you buy a gutter guard you should never clean your gutters again. You should check out Gutter Genie.
You can have that guard you have to shake out, the point is not to have to clean the mess up.
Just save your money and spray your gutter out with a water wand.
I have solid ones and the only downside I have is pollution and stains, and they were a little costly
Go to my website. Type in Gutter Guard and you will get a link that takes you to a page where I reveal the company. This is not the right place to post the information. It’ll only take you a few moments to discover what I put on my house.

Where can i purchase the gutter guard on the Video?
Steve
I do employ a videographer, but sometimes I tape myself with a little Flip camera. When my head is chopped off and the video appears bouncy, that means it is a DIY video.
Do you hire someone to tape all your videos?
The roof looks much steeper on video than it is. The key is good soft rubber soles and a dry roof. I work without a net. :->
I wish I have your confidence in getting around on such sloping roofs. Is there a net down there to catch you? Thanks for sharing such info.
Not while taping this video, but have fallen three other times and lived to tell about it.
Tim, did you fall off the roof?
but too expensive
We will shoot that video in a week. As for the one you mentioned, it is currently packed with debris. I am going to demonstrate in the video if the debris will shake out as the manufacturer says it will.
Thanks for your video. Are you still planning to update the video any time soon? I’m about to order the gutter brushes based on cost and ease of installation as an alternative to doing nothing and having to blow out my gutters with a leaf blower four times a year.
If a franchise is one of those types that MUST have your wife present, and you don’t want to deal with that type of outfit, you are out of luck, because the company won’t let anyone else in on their territory. Mastershield is one of those types of companies. On the other hand, a homeowner can purchase Leaf Relief or Gutter Glove and install it himself, and happily avoid getting “clogged” by all that debris and waste of time.
Efficiency isn’t everything. Cost and availability is an even bigger factor. For example, if the device is only available to one exclusive franchise in your territory, which iherently keeps the price high and the competition low, forget getting something of reasonable value.
The type of roofing material has no bearing on the function of a gutter guard.
do they all work if you have a metal roof on your home…
Yes, it is.
Is the gutter protection in the video Mastershield?
