Two stories up. Big roofs. Fewer cleanings.
Gutter guards on a Franklin colonial take the two-story ladder out of your fall routine and keep long gutter runs draining instead of spilling onto decks and siding.
Mr. Gutter covers gutters with Proflow aluminum and All Mesh Pro stainless mesh guards on homes and condominiums across Franklin, MA, from downtown and Unionville to the subdivisions along I-495. On every job we clean all the gutters and downspouts and handle the repairs before installing the guards. Pricing is free whether you phone (508) 399-7600 or send us photos.

A lot of Franklin's homes are two-story colonials in neighborhoods carved out of the woods over the last few decades. Those houses have gutters well out of reach of a stepladder, long runs across the back, and decks or patios right below them. Cleaning them twice a year means hauling out an extension ladder and moving it again and again. Skip a cleaning and the next heavy rain sheets over the edge onto the deck boards and siding. Guards take most of that work off your calendar.
We install two guards. Proflow, the aluminum option, is a heavy perforated cover that holds up to snow sliding off a big roof. All Mesh Pro, from Champion Gutter Products, is a stainless steel micro-mesh that stops leaves, maple seeds, pine needles and shingle grit, and it carries the manufacturer's warranty and a no-clog money-back guarantee. On a big Franklin roof the savings add up, since either guard costs about half of what the national brands charge. Both fit most existing gutters, so a sound gutter system does not need replacing first.
Every guard job starts with a full cleaning of the gutters and downspouts and whatever repairs the system needs, such as a sagging run, a leaking corner or a downspout too small for a big roof. That is included, not extra. We also install guards on condominium buildings, where gutter cleaning is a recurring cost for the association.

Maple seeds pile into Franklin gutters in spring, along with oak catkins and seed husks that break down into a fine muck. That muck clogs downspout openings even when the gutter looks mostly empty from the ground. Fine mesh keeps it out of the trough.
Big colonials and newer homes have rooflines with several valleys. Each valley sends leaves and rain to one spot along the gutter, and that spot clogs before the rest. A guard lets the water in while the leaves slide past.
Around downtown and Dean College, older homes sit under mature street trees, often with tall walls and aging gutters. Debris lands high up on these taller houses, and loose old hangers do not take kindly to a gutter full of wet leaves.
Both cost about half what the big national brands charge, and every installation includes cleaning your gutters and downspouts and any repairs needed.
Stainless steel mesh
A fine stainless steel mesh, made by Champion Gutter Products, that keeps out leaves, pine needles and shingle grit while rain passes straight through. Our pick for homes under pines.
Perforated aluminum
A sturdy aluminum gutter guard with rows of small openings. It covers the gutter, sheds leaves and keeps the big debris out, and it's built to stand up to New England snow and ice.
On a colonial backing up to woods with pines in the mix, choose All Mesh Pro. Its stainless mesh stops needles, maple seeds and shingle grit, and it is the guard backed by a no-clog money-back guarantee. If your yard has mostly oaks and maples and you want the lower-cost option, Proflow's aluminum cover handles broad leaves well and stands up to snow sliding off a big roof. On an older home downtown under street trees, either can work, and the deciding factor is usually whether seeds and grit are part of the mix. We will look at your trees and roofline and recommend one, not push the pricier guard by default.
Some Franklin homeowners ask for leaf guards, gutter screens or gutter covers; they're all names for what we install. Every installation includes cleaning your gutters and downspouts and any repairs the system needs, and our own crew does the work, never a subcontractor.

We recently had our entire house's gutter guards installed. The project was completed in a timely manner. Communication throughout the project was seamless, from scheduling to completion. Tech Edy and Nobel were onsite promptly and ensured that all debris was cleared before they departed. The job quality was exceptional!
Extremely fast to respond and complete work. I texted Josh on Monday, had an estimate within minutes. The men came out to install gutters with Champion Gutter guard around 10 on Wednesday and were done by 11. Professional, polite and excellent work.
We hired Mr Gutter to put gutter guard on our house. The product is fantastic. The company was receptive and easy to schedule with. We'd recommend their company to friends and family.
