Gutter Guard · Kalkallo
Kalkallo's estate streets are still growing into their trees and gardens, but even young trees shed enough to block a gutter within a season, and the open blocks here let wind-blown debris add to that load. A blocked gutter overflows back under the roof edge, and on a newer build that overflow rots fascia and tracks into the cavity just as readily as on an older home. A mesh fitted over the gutters and valleys keeps them clear, letting water through while leaves and debris stay out. We match the mesh to your roof — concrete tile or Colorbond — and on the more exposed outer blocks an ember-rated metal mesh is also worth considering.
Kalkallo sits on the very edge of Melbourne's northern growth corridor, so gutters here collect wind-blown debris off open grassland as much as leaf litter, and an ember-rated mesh adds bushfire protection.
Local roof weather
Established tree canopy across parts of Kalkallo drops enough leaf litter to choke a gutter in a season, and with rain on around ~125 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.
