Gutter guard
extends life of
your spouting
The warm winter weather to date means
that those annoying autumn leaves are still
falling and clogging up the spouting. The
solution is a Gumleaf Gutter Guard.
“Leaf litter remains damp and acidic and
that wrecks the spouting,” says Rohan Rudd
from Gumleaf Gutter Guard.
“By having a 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.
The Gumleaf Gutter Guard also helps
with preventing birds from nesting in the
spouting during spring. The eggs and young
chicks attract vermin which can then get
inside roof cavities and rats and mice can
then 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 also protecting tank water
from being contaminated, ensuring the
safety and quality of the water supply.
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 sized house taking one to two days.
Rohan also does any necessary minor repair
jobs on the roof at the same time.
