Nests blocking spouting<br />
can cause issues<br />
Yes it’s that time of the year when the pesky<br />
starlings return to nest in your spouting. Not only can<br />
it be noisy and dirty but their eggs and young chicks<br />
can also attract vermin.<br />
These rats can then make their way inside your roof<br />
and even chew through your wiring.<br />
Local company Gumleaf Gutter Guard has the<br />
answer with guards that protect your costly spouting<br />
not only preventing nesting birds but also from snow<br />
damage and contamination of tank water, ensuring<br />
the safety and quality of the water supply.<br />
Another key advantage of Gumleaf Gutter Guard<br />
is that it prevents leaf litter from gathering in the<br />
spouting.<br />
“Leaf litter remains damp and acidic and that<br />
wrecks the spouting,” says owner Rohan.<br />
“By having Gumleaf Gutter Guard installed, the<br />
life of the spouting is extended to the life of the<br />
roof.”<br />
Materials and advice are available for both<br />
trade customers and DIY. For the DIY expert<br />
installation videos are available on their website<br />

Developed in Australia more than 20 years<br />
ago, Gumleaf Gutter Guard has been providing a<br />
quality and effective solution in New Zealand for<br />
the last decade, Rohan says.<br />
Much of his work comes from repeat business,<br />
with customers happy with both the product<br />
quality and the service he provides. Customers<br />
requesting a quote will receive it within 24 hours,<br />
and Rohan says he will “go anywhere to provide a<br />
quote”.<br />
He is also available Monday to Saturday to speak to<br />
customers who call him.<br />
“Even if I am working on a job, I will talk to anyone<br />
who calls me,” he says.<br />
Once a quote is accepted, the job is started within<br />
10 days, with installation on an average sized<br />
house taking one to two days. Rohan also does any<br />
necessary minor repair jobs on the roof at the same<br />
time.<br />
