You may see a small section of the mesh because we maintain the pitch of the roof. It is possible to install in-gutter systems that cannot be seen. However we have chosen not to include them in our product arrange as they create more work and do not work well.

If you want a low maintenance gutter guard system then we do not recommend in-gutter systems. In- gutter systems all require considerable mainentance as the leaves will not slide off but will sit on the mesh and eventually break down and block off the gutters. We regularly replace failed in-gutter systems with Leafshield. There are three types of in-gutter systems :
1.Product place in the gutter: eg the Brush style in approx 2m lengths and lengths of plastic rolled up and placed in the gutter. The home owner needs to regularly remove the mesh or brush, so that they can clean out the gutters and “guard” before replacing it back into the gutters.
2.Other systems create a shelf (usually made in colorbond steel or cheese grater style aluminium sheets) where the leaves sit and build up until they are cleaned off. These in gutter, gutter guard systems are difficult to remove for cleaning purposes or if you wish to replace them.
3. Foam wedge placed in the gutter to prevent leaves entering the gutter to act as a gutter filter. Like most filters they will soon silt up then need to be removed for cleaning. Foam gutter guards have been used for years in USA -gutter repairers and gutter cleaners claim that gutters are being prematurely replaced due to rusting!

Yes our Fine Leaf mesh will stop these very fine leaves from blocking your gutters. These installations may still need bi-annual cleans to remove the leaf matter from the roof.

Leafshield Gutter Protection Systems will stop Birds and other wildlife from nesting in the roof which will eventually stop the associated lice, smell and noise. Ants and cochroaches often nest in gutters filled with leaves, so clean gutters can often stop this problem as well.

Yes, a quality gutter guard or leaf guard properly installed will not only stop all types of leaves but will also Possum proof, rat proof, snake proof and bird proof your home. We suggest you speak to a professional about the correct way to remove the animal/s and or their nest. Then we can seal off the roof (using a quality gutter guard) to prevent them returning. It is important that any nests are removed, particularly if they have eggs or young, because any animal will find a way back to it’s young if it is still inside.

Yes, we receive many referrals because leafshield works and we look after our clients. In areas where there is heavy debris we offer annual or bi annual clean-offs at reasonable rates. We send clean off reminder letters to our customers between July and September and many of our customers arrange annual clean offs.

If you live in South East Qld then we are the only gutter guard company that has consistently installed gutter guard products since 1995 in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Toowoomba, Ipswich and Sunshine Coast. Many other companies including Leafbusters, Four Seasons Gutter Protection and Guttershield have installed in Brisbane and South East Queensland, all for varying periods of time, often on a franchise system. On numerous occasions Leafshield has been able to assist customers of these companies with clean offs and repairs, when the franchisee ceases trading. These companies do not have there head offices in Qld so seem to flit in and out of Qld and cannot provide the same service on an ongoing basis that a local company such as Leafshield Gutter Protection Qld can provide.
