EZ-Quick-10 Gutter Guard: Easy-to-Install Protection for Your Gutters

R&P: Which of course, I did not, and ended up with several oops. Especially if you use tinsnips (which come in handy for corners, narrowed clearances, trimming, etc.) which leave razor-sharp edges which will lacerate your hands by just thinking about it. The product is generally wide enough to accommodate the widest gutters, but I suspect in most cases you'll have to bend or bow them to fit, and in my case I had to bow, and in most places, trim off 1/2" for the full length. It's a learning curve, so after doing 3 or 4, you'll get the hang of it. I'm actually adding on to ones I installed about 10 years ago, and tho they have rusted quite a bit, they're still just as effective. Good value.

M. Melvin: I had a little struggle with the install because of the way my roof is flashed and the overhang across about 1/3 of the gutter. After a couple of sections, I got a method that works well. I pre-curve the section toward the front to make it easier to get into the gutter. Then I'm able to flatten them and tighten them up inside the gutter. All of my trees leafy maples with no pines. I look forward to not having to dig the gutters out any more.

C. Mc LAUGHLINC. Mc LAUGHLIN: I purchased this item based on its reviews! It was easy to install, and I like that fact that it was easy to bend and cut to get the job done. Overall, I saved myself a lot of money by not hiring a professional.

Steve Frye: Really easy to install - seriously easy. End pieces were easy to trim with simple wire cutters. Could be a little pokey on the sides because it's mesh, but either be careful since gloves will get in the way. I just did mine bare handed, aside from doing it to late in the season fall 2021, so my fingers were cold, the product was a snap.

We've got a few larger trees, nothing extreme but without covers I know it'll clog up a few times a year the whole way down with leaves. I had removed the el cheapo plastic and thin mesh covers I had gotten from Menards a few years back - those were awesome but we're wearing out. So I tried these.

The mesh I would say will probably keep out most maple helicopters, but the tiny ones would probably get through. I have birch, honey locust, and a few ash - the ash seeds will definitely get in there. For leaves - 100% there. Water drainage is great but thin silt will build up and seeds will grow, and eventually some blockage will happen.

So when I need to go deal with the saplings, there are two strategies here. One - you need to hose down the gutters when the seeds come down to just get them out before they grow. For a rambler...

rena reads: I installed 75 feet of the E-Z-GUTTER-GUARD one year ago. They have been on the house for one year and have gone through all 4 seasons. I live close to St Louis Mo. in Illinois. I have oak, maple, pecan, crab apple and other trees around the house with some close to the house. The house has a 12-4 pitch. There are 3 down spouts in the 75 ft run. I will first comment on the installation. For me they were very easy to install. I used a stepladder to access the gutters to keep from leaning on the gutters. Some were bent but being made out of aluminum they we easy to bend back straight. They are easy to cut with a tin snips and I used a small hook to lift the back of the guard up if it slid down in the gutter too far. They do stick up and can be seen. Now for how they worked. Before I installed these guards I had to clean the gutters out at least 6 times a year; sometimes more. Now that I am 67 years old I just got tired of it, and I just hated to see in a heavy rain the gutters running over. Since they have been up (one year) I had to clean only ONE down spot out. I was amazed. They worked. In one year I have seen the house roof covered with leaves in the fall, snow in the winter and...
