Overall Rating: 5 / 5 (Excellent)

LeafFilter installs its own products and exercises a high degree of quality control, which may be missing in third-party installations.

As a full-service gutter company, the LeafFilter team comes prepared to provide gutter replacement and repairs in addition to installation. Its patented gutter guards come in a variety of colors and materials and are backed by a lifetime warranty.

Since so many factors affect the pricing of gutter guards, LeafFilter is not able to provide a generalized pricing comparison. It does, however, offer free quotes which can be requested online. Consumers are advised to compare specific estimates from LeafFilter against other competitors' estimates.

Specifications - 5 / 5

LeafFilter installs micro mesh guards that seal the open tops of gutters while allowing water to pass through. The mesh is made of surgical-grade stainless steel, which is renowned for its corrosion and rust resistance. Plus, its body is made of uPVC, which is a common material in element-facing products like doors and windows.

LeafFilter gutter guards do not mount under roof shingles but instead are anchored to the gutters themselves, which preserves customer roof warranties.

Together with their gutter guard installation service, LeafFilter also repairs and installs gutters themselves. This all-in-one approach makes hiring LeafFilter more convenient since customers don’t have to deal with multiple contractors to address their gutter performance issues.

Pricing and Warranty - 5 / 5

Pricing varies from home to home, as the LeafFilter team takes into account several factors including the size, style, and condition of the customer's gutters. Because of this, the company does not publish its prices online.

The company does offer free estimates which can be requested online. After completing the online form, a LeafFilter representative will contact you to provide an estimate. Since there are so many variables that affect price, consumers are advised to compare prices on house-specific estimates.

Poor representation by the salesman. Recently I called LeafFilter for a quote for my gutters. The person they sent out let me know really fast that he was very busy and in a hurry. He basically was rude the entire time that he was at my home. He made sure to let me know that he typically did high end homes and from his behavior mine did not meet his criteria. I have an older home that was completely remodeled which had some debris in the gutters which needs cleaned out due to some over hanging trees. I also wanted an estimate for gutter covers as well. He spent a lot of time showing me how much better his gutter covers were than his competitors. Fine whatever. The co owner of my home... Read More

My neighbor, with the same size house, paid $1100 less than we did. And both houses were installed with gutter protection the same day. I felt like my salesman had too much pricing leeway and was not honest to give me a fair price. He started with an $11,000 price and finally, with 3-4 discounts, we paid $6825. The exact same size house and roof, that my neighbor has, was only $5725. Both of us were called on by two different salesmen on the same day at the same time. Your company needs more consistency in pricing the value of your product. I want an $1100 discount. Francis Payne Southaven, MS

Bad Bad business They will take your money and run with me they told me that my gutter won't leak anymore after they put leaf filter on so want the did was put the dip strip behind the gutter Instead of put it in the gutter And left the gap between the roof and gutter. So more water could run down behind the gutter call many times and in the next I don't know last month they came out twice Still couldn't figure out that the drip edge goes into the gutter and not behind it. Upper management never calls you back. Even though they say they will call you back in 24 hours. So that was their Pro is lying cheating and stealing. If you them use a credit card so you can dispute the charges when... Read More

I so wish I had found these reviews before having LeafFilter complete the project. I tried finding objective reviews before the salesperson came to my house, but could not find any. Sadly I paid 3 to 4 times what the project should have cost. I paid approximately $40 per linear foot. According to my "after the fact" research, a high end cost should have been $12 per linear foot. I am an elderly single Christian woman, living on a fixed income. I trusted that the salesperson had integrity and would not take advantage of me. I was wrong! Please do not trust this company.

I had a salesman Robert Devries come and give me an estimate. Robert was very nice and informative about the product. I gave a 2.5 rating bc the price to me was extremely high for the small amount of gutters that needed to be replaced. I did not go with LF for that reason, could justify spending that much money since I don’t plan on staying in this home long term. I will give 5 stars to Robert Devries though!

Sorry to hear your overall experience was less than 5-stars. I'm sure Robert mentioned by keeping your gutters clog-free, you can prevent costly home damages. LeafFilter is also backed by a lifetime, transferable warranty and is the nation’s largest gutter protection company. For these reasons, we hope that you see gutter protection as a valuable investment on your home and a 5-star product. Thanks again for your review, we will be sure to share your review to Robert!

I also was pressured into trying to sign a contract the same day. I keep telling the salesperson that I was not going to make a decision the same day. Price went from 6700.00 to 2500.00 and keep saying nobody was making any money at the 2500.00 price which I couldn't believe. Don't like there pressuring sales tactics!!!
