Oh, most definitely! Gutters are meant to divert water away from your home, protecting your roof and foundation from the threat of water damage. LeafFilter is installed at the optimal angle to shed debris (depending on your roof pitch, gutter style, and other factors), so you won’t have to worry about the “shelf” effect occurring at your home. However, many DIY screen products do tend to create this unfortunate effect… and our team frequently removes these impermanent solutions and repairs damages caused by them before installing LeafFilter!
