GUTTER GUARDS
Reduce gutter maintenance with professional leaf protection. Gutter guards keep debris out while letting water in, significantly reducing cleaning frequency and preventing clogs that cause overflow and damage.
Expert Gutter Guards Services in Lake County
Gutter guards are mesh, screen, or solid covers that fit over your gutters to prevent leaves and debris from entering while allowing rainwater to flow through. For homes with trees nearby, they can dramatically reduce gutter maintenance.
We emphasize 'reduce' rather than 'eliminate' maintenance—no gutter guard completely prevents all debris. However, quality guards can extend cleaning intervals from monthly to annually or less, saving time, money, and the risks of ladder work.
At Pro Specialty Services, we install professional-grade gutter guards that actually work—whether as part of a new gutter installation or added to existing gutters. We've seen cheap DIY products that cause more problems than they solve. We recommend and install products with proven performance.
Why Gutter Guards Matter
Clogged gutters cause real damage. When gutters overflow, water cascades down your siding, pools around your foundation, and can cause expensive damage. Guards prevent the clogs that cause overflow.
Maintenance reduction is significant. Instead of cleaning gutters 4-6 times per year, guarded gutters may only need annual or semi-annual attention. The time and cost savings are meaningful.
Safety improves by reducing ladder work. Gutter cleaning requires ladder access to your roofline—inherently risky. Fewer cleanings mean less ladder exposure. Some homeowners value this safety benefit most.

Common Questions
Quality guards significantly reduce debris in gutters. They don't eliminate all maintenance—you'll still need occasional cleaning—but they can extend intervals from monthly to annually or less. The key is choosing the right guard for your debris type.
It depends on your debris. Micro-mesh works best for varied debris including pine needles. Surface tension guards handle leaves well in moderate debris. Screen guards are economical for light debris. We assess your situation and recommend accordingly.
Quality gutter guards typically cost $15-25 per linear foot installed. For a typical home, that's $1,500-3,000. Consider this against years of paid gutter cleaning, potential water damage, and the value of your time and safety.
Ice dams are rarely an issue in Central Florida. In colder climates, some guard types can contribute to ice damming. For our climate, this concern doesn't apply.
Most guards work with standard K-style gutters. Some systems require specific gutter types or conditions. We assess compatibility during consultation and recommend options that work with your system.
Quality aluminum or stainless steel guards last 20-25 years. Cheaper plastic guards may fail sooner. Premium products often carry 20+ year warranties. We install products designed to last.
