Had the gutter helmet system installed in 2004 in Orlando, FL., when a new roof was installed. Looks nice... The corner seam dripped from day one over my front porch, and they sealed it at least 3 times. Gutter is plugged with leaves as it does every year; that the system is supposed to prevent. When it rains water just drips off, since the gutters are plugged. It still drips over my front porch. I gave up dealing with Gutter Helmet. It looks nice though. Surprised they are still in business after 15 years.
I have gutter helmet and have had nothing but issues. Every year birds get in and nest. I have called the installer on several occasions and they say they will back out and correct and never do. All o get is the runaround. I guess since they ha e my money i m not a priority anymore. So where does this lifetime
warranty protect me???
I had gutter helmet installed on my home many years ago, and it turned out to be a HUGE MISTAKE. There were problems with the workmanship and over the years many of the pieces have fallen off and caused additional damage to my house. The REAL PROBLEM with Gutter Helmet that they do not tell you about is that fact that if there are trees near your home with sap dropping from them, it makes the gutter helmet surface sticky, and leafs and other debris stick to the surface of the gutter helmet. Rain ends up pouring over the side of the house rather than going into the gutter. I have found a much better cost solution by having someone come to home once a year to clean the gutters. For what it... Read More
So after reading these other comments I would never had tried Gutter Helmet. I’m glad I did though. I’ve had 3 different products on my home BEFORE Gutter Helmet was installed. I could go on for days about how poorly they worked or didn’t work and about how each sales rep promised me things that seemed too good to be true. Well I’m an attorney and require everything in writing. I’ve tied Leaf Guard, Gutter Guard and Leaf Filter. None of them worked, but will say Leaf Guard worked the best of those three. About 3 years ago I had Gutter Helmet of Greenville come out and give me. Quit on removing Leaf Fi,term and putting New gutters and Gutter Helmet On my home. Impremeasured my home so... Read More
We had 321 feet professionally installed. Within 60 days the small 3/8 lip was completely blocked with oak tree pollen and blooms and rain just poured over the lip. Water never got in the gutters at all. Lip is way too small for a heavy southern rain! It was like we had no gutter system at all with rain just pouring off the roof . We spent over $2,000 to have these guards installed and are just sick. We got no satisfaction on our complaints. Next week we are taking the whole mess out and installing REAL gutter guards. There goes another couple of grand! DO NOT buy these if you have any trees around your house or experience very heavy rains.
We've had Gutter Helmet about 4 years. Finally just removed the whole mess/ Customer Service is the worst we've ever experienced. Notified them of problem with actually a seam installed directly over our porch, of course it leaked. Called them out 3 times and heard nothing but excuses. (Wrong time of year to check.) I service at least 80 people a month entering my home and don't need an icy porch. Terrible experience, but we have ripped it all off and are sick about the money we spent. Last time we spoke with the representative we were told it would cost $100 to have them come out.
I have had gutter helmet gutter guard Installed at my place in New Jersey. It was installed in the month of May 2018. The salesperson who came over to sell this product was noted that after installation of Carter helmet be can be rest assured that our gutters were to not be clot and even if such a situation were to arise or leaking to be noted they will come over and fix the problem free of cost due to their lifetime warranty. He additionally after the culture got is installed even downpour such as a fire hose would not leave any water coming off the roof. As soon as the gutter helmet got a got was installed and noticed that during heavy rain falls there are a couple of different... Read More
