Gutter Guard · Ballan
Ballan's established township streets carry mature trees that drop leaf litter into gutters each autumn, and on the town's older homes those gutters have often been cleared by ladder for decades. A blocked gutter overflows back under the roof edge and rots fascia, or backs up into the roof as a leak. Gutter guard keeps the debris out: a mesh over the gutters and valleys lets water through while leaves stay on top. We match the mesh to your roof — tile or Colorbond — and given Ballan's rural surrounds, an ember-rated metal mesh is worth considering on properties near grassland.
Ballan's mix of established township trees and surrounding farmland makes gutter guard valuable both for the leaf load in town and, on properties near grassland, for ember protection.
Local roof weather
Established tree canopy across parts of Ballan drops enough leaf litter to choke a gutter in a season, and with rain on around ~120 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.
