Why it matters here

Guards cut cleaning, but they don't end it, and they don't stop ice. In Florissant, look at what actually falls on your roof before you pick a type. We pass your request to an independent contractor, who advises, quotes and fits. We don't sell guards.

Trees and what lands in the gutter

Trees planted when the subdivisions were new are now large, so roofs that once needed no cleaning do now. Long eaves give leaves plenty of room to gather.

The houses in Florissant

Most houses date from that 1947 to 1980 boom: ranches and split-levels with long, simple eaves and wood fascia. The Old Town Historic District is much older. Gutters on many postwar houses are well past their first life.

What to look at first in Florissant

  • On long ranch eaves, check that the gutter still falls toward its outlets and hasn't flattened or reversed.
  • Add downspouts where one outlet serves too long a run.
  • Check old fascia for soft spots at the corners.
  • Inside the old town, ask about historic rules first.

What to ask the contractor

  1. Which type, and why for my trees?Ask them to name your trees and explain how the product handles them.
  2. How does it fix to the roof edge?Under the shingles, on the drip edge or on the gutter lip? Ask if that affects your roof warranty.
  3. What's the upkeep?Get an honest answer about brushing and downspout checks.
  4. What about ice?Ask what happens at the eave in a freeze and thaw.

Guards in Florissant: questions

Which guard suits the trees in Florissant?

Small seeds and catkins favor fine mesh. If it's mostly big leaves, simpler types can work. Ask the contractor to name your trees and explain the choice. The guard guide covers each type.

Can you get guards fitted on an older Florissant home?

Often, but the gutter needs to be sound and pitched first, and old or slate roofs need care at the edge. Ask how the guard fixes and whether anything gets lifted.
