We live in a world where less is more and when less provides an effective, affordable and advantageous solution; there is arguably no need for more. Simplicity provides a great number of benefits in comparison to over thought and over complicated ideas that are hard to understand, hard to implement and liable to break. This is certainly the case when it comes to gutter guards, which are a product used to protect the guttering of properties from fallen leaves and other kinds of debris. One of the most effective and rapidly becoming the most popular gutter guard product on the market is the foam wedge
gutter guard. Its design is as simple as it sounds and it is literally a length of foam that comes in the shape of a wedge.
How the wedge works
The wedge shaped foam gutter guard is placed thin end of the wedge down inside your gutter. It should fit snugly with the fat end of the wedge filling the width of your gutter and creating a flat surface across the top. The design may look simple and be simple to install but the DIY gutter guard foam has been highly developed in order to effectively allow water to filter through. Anything larger though, including leaves and debris cannot get through and will remain on the surface where they will soon be blown off as soon as the wind picks up or it rains. This gutter guard solution is undoubtedly simple but the main point is that it is effective and it does its job very well. They can be found online and delivered straight to your door so even the purchasing process is simple.
