You might not have trees in your yard, but debris can still find its way into your gutters. Your neighbors’ trees and gardens have leaves and blossoms that can get blown by the wind and accumulate inside your gutters. Even tiny debris, such as needles, pollen, and decaying roof shingles can build up, and small insects and animals may still want to nest in your gutters. Regardless of the trees and plant life in your yard, your gutters are still exposed to elements that can settle and clog your gutters, so protecting them with Gutter Helmet makes sense.
