Gutter Guard Installation in Northeast Wisconsin
Gutter guards help keep leaves, pine needles, twigs and other debris out of your gutters, reducing clogs and helping rainwater flow away from your home. Professionally installed gutter guards can also reduce routine gutter cleaning and help protect your gutter system from problems caused by overflow.
Advantages of Gutter Guard Installation
For homeowners, obstructed open gutter systems can be extremely problematic. Rainwater can overflow and lead to a flooded basement or leaks in your attic. Siding and fascia damage is also a common occurrence. You might even experience damage to your deck and patio. This can lead to costly repairs.
Larson & Keeney Home Services installs Gutter Shutter, a covered gutter system designed to channel rainwater into the gutter while helping block leaves, twigs and other debris. Installing gutter guards is a “set-it and forget-it” solution that will safeguard your house from moisture damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about gutter guards? Here are answers to some of the most common questions homeowners ask about gutter guard installation and maintenance.
Generally, gutter guards will keep all but the smallest debris out of your gutter, though some screen or mesh-type gutter covers won’t prevent small particles like plant seeds and granules from your roof shingles from accumulating in your gutters. The type of trees around your house should be considered when choosing gutter guards.
Many gutter covers require lower courses of roof shingles to be pried up in order to install the gutter screen or cover. Our professional installers will ensure that this is done properly to avoid damage to the shingles.
This can be a problem with many screen-type gutter covers, which is why we’ll work with you to determine the best type of gutter guard for your home’s location to give you ideal performance and limit maintenance and cleaning.
Like any other exterior part of your house, there is always the chance your gutters can be damaged by Mother Nature. However, we use high quality products that will be durable and long-lasting under normal weather patterns.
Gutter guards come in a wide variety of colors, meaning that we can match the guard to your existing gutter to give your home a seamless appearance.
