Owens Corning Gutter Guards

Thursday, June 18th, 2009

Owens Corning has a new product on the market called Rapid Flow it is a Gutter Guard filter product that will keep your gutters flowing and debris from clogging your gutter system.

This product is one that really works and the reason I know is I have been in the business of cleaning windows and gutters for over 25 years. I never liked any of the systems on the market, gutter screening did not work and would have to be removed so the gutters could be cleaned every year, gutter covers worked to some extent but debris still made its way into the gutter and there were problems in the winter with icicles. But over 3 years ago I discovered a gutter filter product that worked and I have been selling this type of product since.

ContractorsFilter is selling Owens Corning Rapid Flow Gutter Guard because it is the best product on the market this gutter foam filter product is one of the best on the market, the filter is top coated with a protective coating that will make the filter last for years and protect it from the suns damaging UV rays and mold and mildew.

Our ContractorsFilter Gutter Guard System is priced wholesale for anyone wanting an easy DIY sytem, check out our website and contact us for ordering information.

Waterproofing the Basement

Let me ask you a simple question. Have you ever gotten an estimate on how much it would cost to water proof your basement? If not, you are in for a surprise or should I say a shock. This is an expensive undertaking and prices can be as much as $12,000. This is not in the average person’s budget. The major cause of water entering the basement is once again, improper drainage. There is no other way around the fact that you need to have a Gutter Guard system. The advantages and the money they will save when it comes to your home are unmatched. Gutter protection will be far cheaper to install than many of the problems you will have without it.

Erosion

Are you frustrated with the amount of work it takes to keep up a home? If so, then you certainly do not want to add to the work. A gutter guard system will not only keep your gutters free of debris but it could keep you from having to replace your landscaping. Here is another place that improper drainage will cause problems.

Water from a drain system that is not working properly, over time will erode the ground around your home. This can cause other problems as well. So if you do not want to have to replace landscaping every so often, the gutter guard is a smart move. They allow the water to drain properly and put a stop to having to constantly replace and repair.

Soffit and Siding Replacement

It’s unbelievable the prices that are charged today for any kind of home repair. The price of everything except your paycheck keeps rising. What are you going to do? For one, maintaining your home is going to be far less costly than having to repair things several times. It is wise to install a gutter guard system to keep from causing more problems in the future.

Improper drainage will end up ruining the soffits and your siding. Buying the materials to replace the soffits and the siding is expensive enough. On top of that, unless you are willing to take the chance of falling off the ladder again, you will have to pay someone to repair your home. Gutter protection will help reduce this cost of home repair.

Gutter Guards for Copper Gutters (Part 2)

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

To avoid these problems you probably need to clean out the rain gutters several times a year-unless you install a gutter protection system to keep all that debris out of your rain gutters in the first place.

There are many different kinds of gutter protection systems available today including gutter guards, gutter covers, gutter screens, and gutter filters. All of them are intended to let the water drain into the rain gutter while keeping the debris out. Adding gutter protection will eliminate the need for cleaning out the gutters up to four times a year and avoid the other kinds of damage that might occur.

In selecting a gutter protection system, most people will choose a product made of the same material as the rain gutters. The usual materials are galvanized steel, aluminum, and copper. Because the majority of home gutter systems are not made from copper, some of the gutter protection systems are not available in copper, but there is still a wide selection from which to choose.
