Nests in your spouting equals<br />

all sorts of damage<br />

Yes it’s that time of the year when the pesky starlings return to nest in your<br />

spouting. Not only can that be noisy and dirty but their eggs and young chicks<br />

can attract vermin.<br />

These rats can then make their way inside your roof and even chew through<br />

your wiring.<br />

Local company Gumleaf Gutter Guard has the answer, with guards that protect<br />

your costly spouting by not only preventing nesting birds but also from snow<br />

damage and contamination of tank water, ensuring the safety and quality of the<br />

water supply.<br />

Another key advantage of Gumleaf Gutter Guard is that it prevents leaf litter<br />

from gathering in the spouting. Leaf litter remains damp and acidic, which wrecks<br />

spouting.<br />

Company owner Rohan Rudd sums up the benefits by stating: “By having<br />

Gumleaf Gutter Guard installed, the life of the spouting is extended to the life of<br />

the roof.”<br />

Materials and advice are available for both trade customers and DIY. Rohan<br />

believes the gutter guard is 100% DIY-friendly: “As long as you have a head for<br />

heights, installing Gumleaf gutter guarding is as easy as A B C – made even easier<br />

with the guidance of our instructional PDFs and YouTube videos on our website.”<br />

Developed in Australia more than 20 years ago, Gumleaf Gutter Guard has<br />

been providing a quality and effective solution in New Zealand for the last decade.<br />

Much of Rohan’s work comes from repeat business, customers being happy<br />

with both the product quality and the service. Customers requesting a quote<br />

will receive it within 24 hours, and Rohan says he will “go anywhere to provide a<br />

quote”.<br />

He is also available Monday to Saturday to speak to customers who call. “Even if<br />

I am working on a job, I will talk to anyone who calls me”, he says.<br />

Gumleaf is now working with Ben Kruger of Alps Spouting to provide for all<br />

your spouting needs. Alps has been installing Gumleaf Gutter Guard for the last<br />

ten years, making this an ideal partnership.<br />
