Problems with Gutter Screens, Gutter Mesh, and Covers

Gutter Screen Covered With Leaves and Pine Needles. Water overflowing past gutter

🚫 Debris Blocks Water Flow – When leaves, pine needles, and pollen pile up on top of screens or covers, they create a water ramp, causing rain to spill over the edge instead of flowing into your gutters.

💦 It’s Not Damage—It’s Just How Screens Work – Even professionally installed micro-mesh or screen guards can experience overflow as soon as the first heavy rain or leaf drop hits.

😩 Costly & Frustrating – Many homeowners regret spending thousands on gutter covers, only to find their gutters still overflow when debris collects on top.

🔧 More Maintenance, Not Less – To keep screens working, you’ll need to climb up and clean them regularly, which defeats the whole purpose of a gutter guard.

GutterBrush Solves This Problem – Instead of covering your gutters and trapping debris on top, GutterBrush fills the gutter, allowing water to flow freely while preventing clogs. No screens, no overflow—just clog-free, flowing gutters.

When you get greedy and try to keep every spec of debris out of the gutter (ie. gutter mesh) you end up keeping the water out too. People spend thousands on leaf guard systems only to find they keep the water out too. No other gutter guard accepts water into the gutter better than GutterBrush. The brush bristles draw the water into the gutter. It works well.

Will debris and leaves get stuck in the brush bristles?

Sure, leaves and debris will get lodged in the bristles but the gutter will not clog and the water will con tinue to flow through.

How does GutterBrush stop 5 inch gutter clogging?
