Why Gutter Guards in Seattle
Seattle homeowners deal with a unique combination of debris that clogs gutters faster than almost anywhere else:
• Pine and fir needles — the #1 clogging culprit in the Pacific Northwest
• Maple seeds (helicopters) — small enough to pass through many cheaper guards
• Oak and alder leaves — standard leaf debris that all guards handle
• Roof moss — bits of moss wash off roofs and clog gutters and downspouts
Clogged gutters in Seattle's rain don't just overflow — they cause fascia rot, foundation flooding, and basement water intrusion. Gutter guards eliminate the problem and the twice-yearly cleaning cost.
