Antique homes. Lakeside trees. Less ladder time.
In Mendon, gutter guards protect more than the gutter: on an antique home, keeping water moving through the gutter instead of over it is what keeps old fascia and trim from rotting.
Mr. Gutter installs Proflow and All Mesh Pro gutter guards on antique colonials, farmhouses and newer homes across Mendon, MA, from the town center to Lake Nipmuc. The price covers cleaning every gutter and downspout and repairing what needs it, and the estimate is free.

Along Route 16 and around the town center, Mendon still has a good share of antique houses, and their wood trim is often the most valuable thing on the outside of the building. Every clogged gutter on those houses overflows against that trim. Water runs behind the gutter, soaks the fascia and works into the corner boards. Guards keep the gutter open so the water goes where it should. For the owner of an old house, that means less rot to repair and less paint to redo.
Out by Lake Nipmuc, the problem is volume. Tall trees lean over many of the homes near the water, and their leaves and needles drop straight into the gutters. In the open parts of town, near the farms and fields, there are fewer trees but more wind, and dry leaves blown in from the edges of the fields still find the gutters. Those two settings call for different answers, so we match Proflow or All Mesh Pro to the trees, the roof and how much upkeep you want to do.
Older gutters need attention before any guard goes on, and that work is part of the job. We clean all the gutters and downspouts, repair seams and loose sections, and fix soft fascia, so the guards sit on a system that drains. Guards fit most existing gutters, and if yours are due for replacement, we can install new gutters and put the guards on those. Pricing runs about half of what the big national brands charge.

Houses near Lake Nipmuc often have trees reaching right over the roof. Leaves and needles fall directly into the gutters instead of blowing past, so these gutters tend to fill quickly and need attention more than once a season without guards.
In the farm areas of Mendon, wind crosses open ground and drives dry leaves and grit from the field edges against houses, and some of it settles in the gutters. A covered gutter keeps that windblown debris on the surface, where the next breeze can move it along.
Newer houses on wooded lots around Mendon often have white pines along the edge of the yard. Their needles drop through the year, mat in the bottom of the gutter and hold water against the metal. A fine mesh guard keeps them from collecting inside.
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 an antique colonial or farmhouse where maples and oaks are the main trees, Proflow does the job well. It is a sturdy perforated aluminum cover that keeps leaves out of the gutter, which is what protects the old trim below. For homes near Lake Nipmuc, or any Mendon lot with white pines, All Mesh Pro is the better pick, since its fine stainless steel mesh stops pine needles and shingle grit. Choosing it for a lakeside house also means a guard backed by the manufacturer's warranty and a no-clog money-back guarantee. Not sure which trees are causing the trouble? We can usually tell from a few photos and recommend one.
Some Mendon 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.
