Gutter Guard · Chelsea
Chelsea's moderate street tree cover means real leaf litter builds up in gutters through autumn, on top of the windblown sand and salt residue that every bayside home near the foreshore collects year-round. Together that debris blocks gutters faster than either factor would alone, and once a gutter backs up it overflows under the roof edge, which risks fascia damage or water finding its way into the roof space on Chelsea's older beach homes. Gutter guard fits a mesh over the gutter and valley lines that lets rainwater through while keeping leaves, sand and debris out, cutting down how often gutters need clearing and protecting the roof edge from repeated water damage.
Chelsea's combination of established street trees and constant bayside debris means gutters here clog from two directions at once, so guard earns its keep protecting the roof edge on both fronts rather than just one.
Local roof weather
Established tree canopy across parts of Chelsea drops enough leaf litter to choke a gutter in a season, and with rain on around ~125 days a year, an overflowing gutter quickly finds its way into the roof.

The process
We look at the tile profile, valleys and gutter line, and the surrounding trees, to choose the right mesh and fixings.
Aperture and material are matched to the debris and, in fire-prone areas, to ember-guard requirements.
The mesh is fitted to follow the tile profile and seal the gutter and valley lines so debris cannot get underneath.
We photograph the completed install at gutter level so you have a record of the mesh-to-tile interface for warranty.
The mesh is matched to your roof: profiled tiles have a larger gap under the front edge than flat tiles, so the guard has to seal against that profile correctly or it lets debris straight through. Valleys and the gutter line both need covering to actually keep the roof clear.
Gutter guard is installed by an insured team and the workmanship is backed by a 7-Year Workmanship Guarantee and a 10-Year Dulux Acratex Material Warranty.
