We always strive to deliver an experience that exceeds your expectations. Thank you for letting us know about this. Your feedback helps us do better.
The job is finally done after 3 weeks of failure to show up for installation and broken promises by the company. I had to cancel my work twice to be home and they didn't even show up. The job was started and left unfinished for weeks then the last installer had to rip out the previous work entirely and redo it because it was done improperly. I have pics. I was overcharged for horrible service except for the last guy seemed okay. The office people I spoke to can't be taken at their word. Do not trust the! I wish I had never heard of Leaf Filter.

WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE!! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE. THEY DO NOT WORK WITH THEIR CUSTOMERS & STRAIGHT UP LIES FROM THE SALESPERSON DOWN TO CUSTOMER SERVICE. CLAIMS DEPARTMENT WILL NOT WORK WITH CUSTOMERS & VERY RUDE. NO SATISFACTION WHAT SO EVER. LIED ABOUT PRODUCT WORKING WITH METAL ROOFS. KNOWING IN ADVANCE THAT WAS OUR INTENT. EXTRA CHARGES NOT DISCLOSED ABOUT REMOVAL FOR ROOF REPLACEMENT. NEXT STEP IS A LAWYER FOR US. $10000.00 IS A LOT OF MONEY TO WASTE ON A PRODUCT THAT DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY!!! DISGUSTING COMPANY THAT SHOULD NOT BE IN BUSINESS!! MY RATING IS BELOW YOUR CHART, THEREFORE I CANT RATE IT

We researched many companies before asking 3 to come out and give us an estimate. Leaf Filter was the first one we spoke with and Clayton Paulson was a true professional. He respected that we had already done our homework regarding gutters and answered all our questions completely. He did not try to "sell" us on his product and the fact we were able to get a quote that visit was also important to us. We decided to go ahead and cancel the other two companies as they basically installed a different type of gutter guard that we already knew we were not interested in at all based on complaints we had heard from friends and neighbors. Clayton also made special trips back to make sure the... Read More

We are happy to hear you had an awesome experience with LeafFilter. Thank you for trusting the nation’s largest gutter protection company!
My experience with the company from sales through installation was excellent but the product itself, is a disappointment. I live in the Seattle area - lots of pine and fir needles with generally light rain. Over time the pine needles cover the leaf filter guard and clog it. In a heavy rain, water washes over the clogged gutter guard and onto whatever (or whoever) is below. I have to climb ladder several times a year with a broom to clear the needles off the guards- something I had hoped to avoid with Leaf-Filter.

We understand that being a homeowner comes with many responsibilities and the last thing you want to do is clean your gutters. LeafFilter is considered "low-maintenance" because like any exterior part of your home, there is some level of upkeep required for optimal performance. While you may have to brush off any debris that doesn't blow off on its own - you won't have to clean your gutters out.
This is Mr. Wallace, Technician Chase Whichard was very professional, a seasoned technician. He answered all of my questions and concerns, a true Super hero.

Absolutely terrible. Installed using black screws, different size trim, and told me I would need a leaf blower to clear the screens! Had it removed. No feedback from them.

When it snows we get icicles. Why do we have gutters? The snow and ice/water should go into the gutter thus no icicles.

Our system does not promote or prevent icicles, so if you’ve had them before you may still get them. What could potentially be causing icicles is clogged gutters, insulation issues in your roof and soffit, or a steep pitch. LeafFilter is going to create airflow inside your gutters to help prevent ice buildup that can cause the water in your gutters to expand, which is much more damaging than icicles.
Absolutely worst money spent. If you ever plan to get a roof...plan on paying half the cost again to have them, come out and reseat them. Customer service said, "You are not going to like this." He was right! I said this is how you treat customers? He said "Well, Yup." I explained I would put them on blast in social media so here I am. You are fine if you don't care about the warranty because they will screw you if you ask them to help you keep it. Of course! Why would they work with integrity!? DO NOT BUY. Put them in yourself. Save money, hassle and time as they won't honor the warranty anyway. -1 star and customer service is nonexistent after you hand over your money.
