Leaf Relief Gutter Guards By Nombach

Protect the value of your home by keeping your gutters clean. Rain flowing over windows, doors and siding can rot fascia boards as well as window framing. It can also erode the foundation around your home and may cause flooding in your basement. Leaf Relief protects against small animals nesting as well as insect breeding inside the rain gutters.

The fall is an especially important time to clean out the leaves in your gutters as a clog can fill up your entire gutter with water. If this water is then frozen, it can cause ice dams making your gutters useless, thus resulting in more severe flooding.

Instead of risking your life cleaning your gutters, a permanent solution is to have Nombach install Leaf Relief gutter guards that come with our service warranty. We provide a free final cleaning of your gutters prior to installation of your Leaf Relief gutter guard system.

Our installers have a passion for their work and take great pride in their workmanship. This is how Nombach can confidently stand behind our products as long as you own them.

When it comes to Leaf Guards and gutter protection, Nombach has come across numerous products over the years including such names as Waterfall, Gutter Helmet, Leaf-Proof, and Gutter Cap.

FAQ

Why are rain gutters important for my home? Rain gutters are one of the most under-appreciated parts of a home's exterior. Most homeowners focus on the siding, windows, or shutters, but the rain gutters do the most protection work for a home. Moisture is one of the most damaging elements to a house, because so many parts of the house are made from wood and other materials that do not do well when wet. Rain gutters are the house exterior's main protection, making them one of the wisest home improvement investments you can make.

In this economy, why should I spend extra money to install gutters or gutter guards on my home? In all actuality, this slow economy is exactly the reason that you SHOULD spend the money on your home. Your home is your most valuable investment and many homeowners are finding that they are holding onto their home for longer than they had planned. You can protect your investment and add years of life and value to your home by making some fairly simple, economical changes such as adding a seamless gutter and downspout system. Ask us about other ways that can improve protection and increase the value of your home.

What are seamless gutters? Continuous rain guttering, also known as seamless gutters, is nationally recognized as the most popular form of guttering; 75% of all guttering installed through-out the nation is continuous. The popularity of seamless gutters is due in part to the elimination of unsightly seams, which in turn, reduces the possibility of leaks. Other types of gutters (steel and vinyl in particular) are sold in 10' lengths and require dozens of seams fastened with slip fittings, each one is a weak spot and a potential leak site. The term seamless gutters can be confusing because there are seams in the system; however, the seams are only at the corners and downspout outlets. These joints are fastened more securely and sealed for stability and leak resistance. The seamless gutter itself is continuous which makes it both strong and visually more appealing.

What are the risks of a faulty gutter system or no system at all? A faulty or non-existent gutter system will damage soffit, fascia, shingles, building foundations, driveways, walkways, and landscaping.

In addition to being seamless, what other features make Nombach gutters better? We only use premium gutter coil with baked on enamel finish which never needs painting. The gutters are formed on the job site for exact measurements, providing a custom fit for your home. We also offer a variety of colors, giving you the ability to match gutters and downspouts to exterior siding, brick, and/or trim to further customize your home's look. To seal our corners, we use an exclusive gutter sealant not available in the general market.

How do you know when you need to replace your existing rain gutters? Look for signs of rust, broken seams, chipping paint, and water damage to the house and/or landscaping. Rust will generally appear as little orange flecks through the paint at gutter seams that are separated and seeping rust from the inside out, and as rust colored stains at the end of downspouts. Damage to the house can appear in the form of water leaks, water erosion of the structural foundation and landscaping, rotting of decks, windows and doors, and staining of the stucco, brick, and siding.

What advantages does Nombach offer? We use only the best materials available within the gutter industry including reinforced hidden screw hangers. Unlike many gutter companies in the area who use galvanized nails which cause galvanization (a chemical reaction that corrodes aluminum), we use only zinc-coated screws in our hidden hangers. We also use an exclusive sealant, instead of standard gutter sealant, that outlasts all others to ensure that corners will not leak in years to come. To ensure proper pitch, levels are used. Downspouts are installed using out-let tubes as opposed to the bottom of the cut gutter (very common short cut). We are experienced in all areas of exterior work and can assess any potential problems your home may have. In our opinion, experience cannot be over emphasized; we have worked with siding and gutters for many years and understand how to solve water problems or prevent them from happening in the first place. Don't settle for unskilled labor that has been subcontracted or hire a do-it-all company that knows a little about everything but allot about nothing. At Nombach, we KNOW how to handle rainwater.

Why do you recommend Alcoa Leaf-Relief? When it comes to leaf guards and gutter protection, we have investigated and/or installed numerous products over the years including such names as Clearwater, Leaf guard, Gutter Helmet, and Gutter Glove. Many of these products are bulky, mount to the roof deck, underperforms by deflecting water, and are flat out UGLY.
