Charlestown gutters face two different jobs. South of Route 1, around Ninigret Pond, Quonochontaug and Charlestown Beach, cottages take salt air and wind, and the debris is mostly what blows in: leaves, twigs and shingle grit. North of Route 1, around Burlingame State Park, Watchaug Pond and the roads toward Cross Mills, year-round homes sit under white pines and oaks that drop into the gutters every week of the year.
Many shore cottages close up in the fall and stay that way until spring. If a gutter clogs after the last visit, it spills during every storm onto decks, shingles and the ground beside the foundation, and no one notices until opening day. Up in the pines, owners who live there all year face the opposite problem: they are home, but the needles never stop, and cleaning keeps falling behind. A guard handles both, with only an occasional clearing of the top.
For Charlestown we offer Proflow, a sturdy perforated aluminum cover, and Champion Gutter Products' All Mesh Pro, a fine stainless steel mesh that stops pine needles and shingle grit. Both resist corrosion and fit most existing gutters. Every job begins with cleaning all of the gutters and downspouts and making any repairs, so the guards go on a system that drains. Cottage owners comparing quotes will find ours at about half of what the big national brands charge; ask about our current gutter guard special too.
Call (401) 274-3030Homes near Burlingame and Watchaug Pond sit under white pines that shed needles all year. Those needles form a tight mat in an open gutter and slip through coarse screens. Stainless mesh is fine enough to stop them.
Mixed in with the pines north of Route 1 are oaks that drop their leaves slowly, finishing in late November. That last drop often comes after the fall cleaning, which leaves gutters full going into winter.
Cottages by the ponds and beaches may have few trees, but storms off Block Island Sound push leaves, twigs and roof grit into gutters. A gutter cleaned in September can be half full after one blustery week.
A cottage shut from fall to spring has nobody watching the gutters. A clog that starts in November overflows through every winter storm. Guards keep the gutters working while the house sits empty.
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.
North of Route 1, under the pines, the answer is almost always All Mesh Pro. Pine needles stay on the outside of its fine stainless steel mesh, and the product is backed by the manufacturer's warranty and a no-clog money-back guarantee. Down by the salt ponds, either guard can work. Proflow, a perforated aluminum cover, handles windblown leaves well on a cottage with a newer roof, while All Mesh Pro is the better choice on an older roof that sheds grit or on a cottage that sits empty for months. Both guards resist corrosion in the salt air, so the choice comes down to the debris.
Gutter guards go by a lot of names, including leaf guards, gutter covers, gutter protection and gutter filters. 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.
