Proven product extends
the life of your spouting
While most of us appreciate nature, the
dawn chorus can be a problem when we
are woken too early by the noise. But as
Rohan Rudd of Gumleaf Gutter Guard
points out, that’s not the only issue with
birds, especially in spring when they nest
in the spouting. The eggs and young chicks
attract vermin, which can then get inside
roof cavities, and rats and mice will chew
through wiring creating a fire hazard, he
says.
Gumleaf Gutter Guard is an effective way
of preventing birds from making nests in
the spouting, and perching on the spouting
and soiling walls and windows with their
droppings, while it also protects tank water
from being contaminated, ensuring the
safety and quality of the water supply.
Another key advantage of Gumleaf
Gutter Guard is that it prevents leaf litter
from gathering in the spouting.
“Leaf litter remains damp and acidic and
that wrecks the spouting,” Rohan says. “By
having Gumleaf Gutter Guard installed, the
life of the spouting is extended to the life of
the roof.”
Snow can also damage spouting, and
again Gumleaf Gutter Guard will protect
the spouting by spreading the load, Rohan
says.
Developed in Australia more than 20
years ago, Gumleaf Gutter Guard has been
providing a quality and effective solution
in New Zealand for the last decade, Rohan
says. Much of his work comes from repeat
business, with customers happy with both
the product quality and the service he
provides.
Customers requesting a quote will receive
it within 24 hours, and Rohan says he will
“go anywhere to provide a quote”.
He is also available Monday to Saturday
to speak to customers who call him.
“Even if I am working on a job, I will talk
to anyone who calls me,” he says.
Once a quote is accepted, the job is
started within 10 days, with installation on
an average-size house taking one to two
days. Rohan also does any necessary minor
repair jobs on the roof at the same time.
