Settlers turned the township's swampy, sandhill countryside into productive farmland, and Kurtzhals Farm, founded in 1893, is still one of its largest. Since then, subdivisions have taken over: about 58 percent of homes were built in 1990 or later, much of it on land that was once farm country.
A tree planted after a house goes up keeps growing, so the debris load tends to rise with it. A guard keeps that debris above the channel, fastened to the front lip of the gutter and tucked under the first course of shingles.
We do not guess which trees are over your roof. A visit settles it: leaves, seeds, twigs, pine needles or just shingle grit, and the guard follows from that.
Brownstown, Michigan homeowners face a tough seasonal cycle: heavy fall debris loads gutters just before winter freezes everything solid. Our gutter protection services stop that cycle at the source, keeping water moving through every season without costly emergency calls to repair ice damage.
Brownstown Township’s newer subdivisions share uniform rooflines, which makes gutter protection a clean, practical upgrade for the whole neighborhood. We install systems that block leaves, shingle grit, and seed pods while allowing heavy rain and snowmelt to drain freely past every downspout. Standing water in a gutter is the single biggest contributor to ice dam formation, and on Brownstown’s flat lots that ice has nowhere else to go except back under your shingles or fascia. Our gutter protection products are built for Michigan winters.
MicroMax Gutter Guards use a fine mesh that blocks pine needles, dirt and shingle grit. All Mesh Pro is stainless micro-mesh in a pitched design with multi-point mounting. Either one is a leaf filter in Brownstown, the micro-mesh style.
A leaf guard in Brownstown holds big leaves above the channel and lets water through its openings.
Our gutter covers in Brownstown are solid tops that shed debris off the front edge.
Klean Gutter is an angled design with interlocking panels. The CopperCare micromesh filter pairs stainless steel with copper.
The guard slides under the first course of shingles, so tell us about the roof schedule and we can plan the fit around it.
Shingles shed grit into gutters as they age, and it packs the channel quietly. MicroMax's fine mesh is built to block it.
The emerald ash borer was first found near Detroit in June 2002 and has killed tens of millions of Michigan ash trees. A guard cannot take a falling limb, so a dead ash over the roof is worth dealing with first.

This company has great customer service. The work that was provided was excellent. I appreciate them thoroughly cleaning up at the end of the job.
Nathan was a delight to work with and I love my new gutters!! Nate is very knowledgeable and hands on. I highly recommend if you are in the market for new gutters to give him a call…you will be happy you did!!
110% satisfaction. Easy scheduling. One guy; prompt and obviously knowledgable about all things gutter. Everything's more complcated than you think: Gutters overflowing? Have pulled away from facia. Loose downspouts? Prior installers used metal drywall screws to attach. And no attempt to sell me Gutter Guard!
Often, yes, if trees overhang the roof. Shingle grit and seeds collect in a young gutter just as they do in an old one, and a guard cuts the cleanings you need.
A fine micro-mesh does. MicroMax is made to block pine needles, dirt and shingle grit, which a wider-opening leaf guard may let through.
Snow and meltwater behave much as they do on any gutter. About 45.0 inches of snow falls in a typical year, and the guard's job is to keep the channel below it free of leaves and grit so thaw water has somewhere to go.
No. A guard does not melt snow or prevent ice at a roof edge. It keeps debris out so the channel is open when meltwater arrives.
