Gutter Guard · Burnside Heights
Burnside Heights doesn't have Melbourne's heaviest tree cover, so gutters here fill more with wind-blown dust, grit and the odd stray leaf from neighbouring gardens than with thick leaf litter. It's a slower build-up than a leafy suburb sees, but it still silts up gutters over time, and a blocked downpipe on a newer estate home can back up and find its way under the roof edge just as easily as on an older property. Gutter guard keeps the debris out: a mesh sits over the gutter and lets water through while grit and leaves stay on top, fitted to suit your concrete-tile or Colorbond roof rather than a generic one-size mesh.
Without heavy tree cover, Burnside Heights gutters fill more slowly than in leafy suburbs, but wind-blown dust and grit from open estate streets still builds up steadily and is worth keeping out before it silts up the gutter line.
Local roof weather
Established tree canopy across parts of Burnside Heights drops enough leaf litter to choke a gutter in a season, and with rain on around ~115 days a year, an overflowing gutter quickly finds its way into the roof.

The process
We look at the tile profile, valleys and gutter line, and the surrounding trees, to choose the right mesh and fixings.
Aperture and material are matched to the debris and, in fire-prone areas, to ember-guard requirements.
The mesh is fitted to follow the tile profile and seal the gutter and valley lines so debris cannot get underneath.
We photograph the completed install at gutter level so you have a record of the mesh-to-tile interface for warranty.
The mesh is matched to your roof: profiled tiles have a larger gap under the front edge than flat tiles, so the guard has to seal against that profile correctly or it lets debris straight through. Valleys and the gutter line both need covering to actually keep the roof clear.
Gutter guard is installed by an insured team and the workmanship is backed by a 7-Year Workmanship Guarantee and a 10-Year Dulux Acratex Material Warranty.
