Gutter Guards

Find the Right Gutter Guard to Perfectly Fit Your Home

There’s heavy rain in the forecast. Are your gutters clean and clog-free? It’s smart to be concerned about clogged gutters because your home can be damaged when gutters clog and overflow.

Water drainage

Roof runoff that overflows clogged gutters can cause basement flooding, damaged siding, fascia boards, decks and patios and water leaks in your living space. Clogged gutters will also cause wood siding, sheathing, and trim to rot; requiring expensive repairs.

Installing gutter guards is a “once-and-done” upgrade that will protect your home from all kinds of moisture damage.

What’s Important When Choosing a Gutter Guard

Gutter guards go by many different names, such as gutter cover, gutter screen, leaf filter, etc. No matter what name is used, the purpose is the same: to prevent leaves, twigs and other debris from accumulating in your gutters and impeding water flow.

Manufacturers have come up with quite a few different ways to keep gutters clean and clog-free. Some work better than others. To figure out which gutter guard design will work best for you, it helps to ask some key questions.

Common Questions About Gutter Guards

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 & granules from your roof shingles from accumulating in your gutters.

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.

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.

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.

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.

“Ultimate Home Solutions replaced our siding, soffits, facia and gutters and did an outstanding job. From the beginning stages of getting an estimate, picking out colors and scheduling the work, they were always available to answer our questions. The installers provided top notch workmanship and were very conscientious about keeping the yard as tidy as possible during the work and then doing a thorough clean up when they were done. I would highly recommend this company and will use them again when it's time to replace our windows.”

“I found this group on a referral from a friend for replacing windows and a sliding glass door in my condo. They were prompt with their responses, came on time, are reasonably priced, and the finished product looked great. I was very worried about getting this project done, particularly during COVID, but these guys are outstanding.”

Brian O. / Valparaiso

“We had a great experience with Ultimate Home Solutions! Everyone was responsive and professional and we couldn't be happier with our new windows. We had 9 total windows, 6 double hung and 3 picture. The job was done in half a day and they cleaned everything up before leaving. Great experience. We'll definitely be contacting Ultimate for future projects!”

Jason F. / Glen Ellyn

“Have had Ultimate Home Solutions do two projects on my home. Two years ago they replaced all the windows in front of my home. This year, they installed a front door with sidelights. The products that they represent are gorgeous and can be customized nine ways to Sunday. Both projects were completed with a high degree of professionalism and we were amazed how quickly the installations went and what a great job of cleaning up after themselves. We couldn't be happier!”

Russell N.

“I can’t thank you enough for the excellent job on the installation of our new windows and front door. Wow, what a difference in the look of our house! I have to admit that this was the first time we NEVER had any complaints about work we had done to our house. I am a bit of a perfectionist so for me to say that is a big deal! The materials and craftsmanship were superb. I was pleasantly surprised that you showed up on the day of the installation to check on the progress. Also, I wasn’t expecting you to stop by a week after the job was completed. Usually, I never see the salesman again after the papers are signed and they collect the deposit. I am impressed, a salesman who actually stands behind their work. It gave my wife and I the feeling that we made the right decision.”
