Project Considerations
The Greensborough residence faced the common challenge of gutter clogging due to the fine debris from nearby trees. This led to frequent water overflow and the need for constant cleaning, a significant inconvenience for the homeowners.
Our approach was comprehensive, focusing on both functionality and aesthetics. The small hole size of the Emberguard material was critical in addressing the specific environmental challenge. At the same time, the colour choice ensured that the installation was in harmony with the home’s existing design.
The installation process was carried out with precision and attention to detail, resulting in a system that enhances the home’s functionality by facilitating water drainage and debris exclusion and enhancing its overall appearance.

Application
The gutter guard was suitable for all residential roof types and guttering, including box gutter sand parapets. It was also ideal as the development included numerous green spaces, so homes were protected from possums and birds.
