You’re tired of climbing ladders twice a year, pulling out soggy leaves and pine needles from your gutters. It’s dangerous, messy, and frankly, a waste of your weekends.
With professional gutter guards installation, your gutters handle Setauket’s heavy oak and maple leaf drops without you lifting a finger. Our micro-mesh technology blocks debris while channeling every drop of Long Island’s increasingly heavy rainfall exactly where it needs to go.
No more foundation puddles. No more basement seepage. No more Saturday afternoons spent on a wobbly ladder with a garden hose, hoping you don’t slip.
We’ve been solving Suffolk County’s exterior home problems for years, and we know exactly what Setauket homeowners face every fall. Those massive oak trees that make your neighborhood beautiful? They’re also dropping thousands of leaves directly into your gutters.
We’re not some fly-by-night contractor from three towns over. We’re licensed, insured, and we live here too. We understand Long Island’s weather patterns, from spring’s heavy rains to winter’s freeze-thaw cycles that crack inferior gutter protection systems.
When we install gutter guards on your Setauket home, we’re protecting our neighbors. That means we do it right the first time, with materials built to last decades, not seasons.
We start with a thorough inspection of your existing gutters and roof line. Every home in Setauket is different, and we need to understand your specific drainage challenges before recommending the right gutter protection system.
Next, we clean your gutters completely and make any necessary repairs. There’s no point installing premium gutter guards over damaged gutters – you’ll just have problems later.
Then we install our heavy-duty aluminum micro-mesh system, securing it to both the front lip of your gutters and the back fascia board. This dual-attachment method prevents wind damage and ensures proper water flow during Long Island’s heaviest storms. The micro-mesh blocks everything from pine needles to maple seeds while allowing water to flow freely.

Your gutter guards need to handle more than just leaves. Setauket’s location means dealing with coastal humidity, salt air, and temperature swings that destroy cheaper protection systems.
Our stainless steel micro-mesh technology features 275-micron openings – small enough to block pine needles and shingle grit, large enough for proper water flow. The heavy-gauge aluminum frame won’t crack in winter cold or warp in summer heat like plastic alternatives.
We include a Permalife finish that resists fading and corrosion from salt air. The system handles up to 22 inches of rainfall per hour – more than three times what the National Weather Service has recorded on Long Island. Every installation comes with our 30-year manufacturer warranty plus our 25-year labor guarantee, because we stand behind our work.
Professional gutter guards installation in Setauket typically ranges from $8 to $25 per linear foot, depending on the system type and your home’s specific requirements. The average Setauket home needs about 150-200 linear feet of coverage.
Premium micro-mesh systems cost more upfront but save thousands in cleaning costs and potential water damage over their 30+ year lifespan. We provide detailed written estimates that break down material and labor costs, so you know exactly what you’re paying for. Most homeowners find the investment pays for itself within 3-5 years through eliminated cleaning costs and prevented damage.
Yes, but only if you choose the right system. Many cheaper gutter guards have openings too large to stop pine needles, allowing them to slip through and create clogs inside your gutters – making the problem worse.
Our 275-micron stainless steel mesh blocks pine needles, maple seeds, and even shingle grit while maintaining excellent water flow. This is especially important in Setauket where pine and oak trees create year-round debris challenges. The micro-mesh technology has been tested specifically against Long Island’s common tree debris and consistently prevents clogging.
We guarantee you won’t need to clean your gutters for at least 10 years, or we’ll clean them free. That’s how confident we are in our system’s ability to handle everything Setauket’s trees throw at it.
No, properly installed gutter guards will not void your roof warranty. In fact, they often help protect your roofing investment by ensuring proper water drainage and preventing ice dam formation.
The key is professional installation that doesn’t penetrate or damage roofing materials. We secure our gutter guard systems to the gutter itself and fascia board, never to roof shingles or underlayment. Our installation method actually helps protect your roof edge by creating a proper drip edge that prevents water from getting behind your gutters.
We’re fully licensed and insured, and we follow all manufacturer specifications for installation. If you have concerns about your specific roof warranty, we’re happy to review the terms with you before starting work.
Most Setauket homes can be completed in one day, typically 4-8 hours depending on the size of your home and complexity of your roofline. Single-story ranch homes usually take 4-6 hours, while two-story colonials with multiple roof angles may take a full day.
We start early and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your schedule. The process includes initial gutter cleaning, any necessary minor repairs, and complete installation of your gutter protection system. We also perform a final water test to ensure proper flow and clean up all debris before we leave.
Weather can affect timing – we won’t install gutter guards in rain or high winds for safety reasons. If weather delays installation, we’ll reschedule at no charge and provide advance notice whenever possible.
Mesh systems like ours use tiny perforations to filter debris while allowing water through. Solid guards rely on surface tension to guide water around a curved edge into your gutters. Both can work, but they handle Long Island’s specific challenges differently.
Solid guards often struggle with heavy rainfall – common during Long Island storms – causing water to overshoot gutters entirely. They also require more precise installation angles to work properly. Mesh systems handle high-volume water flow better and are more forgiving of minor installation variations.
Our micro-mesh technology combines the best of both approaches: the debris-blocking capability of solid guards with the water-handling capacity of larger mesh systems. The 275-micron openings are small enough to stop pine needles but large enough for optimal water flow during Suffolk County’s heaviest downpours.
You’ll need far less maintenance, but some periodic inspection is still smart home ownership. With quality gutter guards, you’re looking at annual visual checks instead of bi-annual cleanings and constant worry about clogs.
Most maintenance involves simply hosing off the top of the guards once or twice a year to remove any surface debris. The guards themselves prevent debris from entering your gutters, so the dangerous ladder work and messy cleaning are eliminated. You might occasionally need to clear leaves that accumulate on top, but this takes minutes instead of hours.
We recommend an annual inspection to check for any loose fasteners or damage from severe storms. Our 25-year labor warranty covers any installation-related issues, and the 30-year manufacturer warranty protects against system defects. Most Setauket homeowners find their maintenance time drops from hours per season to minutes per year.
