Have had gutters and helmet system, which was installed by Gutter Helmet 4 years ago. Started having problems 1st rain after installation. Water flowed over helmet onto ground in several areas on both sides of our shop. Gutter Helmet sent someone out a couple of times to adjust and fix areas installed incorrectly. Since adjustments and fixes did not work, they set up a regular 6 months maintenance, which works out to be every 7 to 8 months since they call to reschedule at least 3-4 times before scheduled maintenance date. We had underground pipes installed onto gutter down flows. Since trees around shop are only evergreens with needles, needles are constantly filling up gutters and... Read More
Great work and they were on time and explained everything that would take place. Kevin and Gene were polite and the gutter looks great. I would highly recommend them.
I had Gutter Helmet installed about 11 months ago in June 2020. Water is over flowing in some areas from gutter. I was told when service man came to my home that a small branch can ding the curved flow edge and then water will not flow over into gutter. Water will then drip to ground level. Depending how heavy its raining the dripping can be heavy as well. Service man also said that spring pollen sticking to gutter curved flow edge will disrupt water flowing into gutter. That washing or pressure washing gutter needs to be performed. So much for getting away wit cleaning gutters.
I've now been in a house that has Gutter helmet for 4 years. They have been nothing but trouble. If ANY dirt builds up on the curved surface, water drips over the gutter. I need to brush clean off the surface at least once a month in spring, summer, and fall. Winter is the worst. I have stalactite type icicles hanging off the gutters and frozen pools of ice all around the house. Once the water freezes on the curved surface, the gutter is rendered useless. I spent a lot of money getting the warranty back in force, but now regret it. I would never and will never install these gutters on a house in the northeast.
My 90 year old mother mistakenly signed up for this installation. 7 days later she called to cancel and was advised she had to forfeit her down payment. So with out any work being completed, only sales person Marshall Cranmer selling her this unneeded gutter protection, she is out $500.00 Be aware of this company that obviously rips little old ladies off!
After years of cleaning my own gutters on our 2-story house, we had Gutter Helmet installed about 15 years ago. Have had zero problems or clogs since. When we had to have our roof replaced, Gutter Helmet came out and uninstalled them the day before and reinstalled them the day after (at an extra cost that was clearly stated when we hired the service). Couldn't be happier with Gutter Helmet.
a false claim that sticks, pine needles, and leaf don't clog this gutter. it clogs much faster because it all blocks the openning which is less than 1/2 inch and much harder to clear than an open gutter. good luck using the warranty
We have a contract with Gutter Helmet and made a down payment of $1,623 !This is for replacing 42' in one part and 78' in another. It is now 7/15/20 and we cannot get the work started, let alone done. Sent a letter to the company and called several times. The was obviously to no avail. We are totally frustrated and ages 96 and 85 years!!!!!!!! We would like to see it done before we die!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had Gutter Helmet installed in 2001 on 9-11. It works great but faded terribly. They told me that fading was not covered by their warranty but would replace it at a cost that was more than I originally paid. The fading looks terrible, would not recommend the product due to the fading and since 2001 there seems to be newer products on the market that are less expensive.
Warning do not purchase !
I’m 73 years old and I am on my roof more now than I ever since gutter helmet installation.
Pollen sticks to their nose forward design water rolls right over the edge onto the ground not in the gutter.
Guarantee states they will clean your gutters but there are always 3,4,5 weeks out from when you need them.
Fair warning do not purchase.
