Will installing gutter guards void my roof shingle warranty?

Never with Ozark Gutter Guard. Big national franchises often slide brackets under your first row of shingles, which can break the manufacturer seal and void your shingle warranty (GAF, Owens Corning, CertainTeed). We fasten our micro-mesh guards directly to the front lip of the gutter and into the fascia board, leaving your roof shingles completely untouched.

How do you measure my gutters without an in-home sales visit?

We use high-resolution aerial and satellite GIS mapping to accurately measure your roof perimeter, gutter runs, and downspouts. You get an honest, fixed-price estimate sent straight to your phone or email without having a commissioned salesperson sit in your living room for two hours.

What if my gutters are currently sagging, pulling loose, or full of debris?

Every gutter guard installation begins with our full preparation service at no extra charge: we hand-clean every foot of gutter, flush downspouts clear, realign your gutters for proper water slope, and replace loose spikes with heavy-duty internal screw hangers.

How does your pricing compare to national brand franchises?

National sales companies carry massive overhead from TV advertising and commission-based sales teams, routinely quoting $4,000 to $8,000 for standard homes. As a local Northwest Arkansas team with zero sales commissions and efficient satellite estimates, we install top-tier marine-grade guards for typically $1,250 to $1,850.

Verified Bentonville Review

"Saved over $3,800 compared to the LeafFilter quote I received last year. The satellite measurement was done within 15 minutes of my request, and installation took exactly 3.5 hours. Not a single oak tassel got through this spring!"

Why Bentonville Rooflines Demand marine-grade 316 Protection

Benton & Washington County average 47.5 inches of rainfall per year — 25% above the national average — with flash events routinely exceeding 2 inches per hour during Ozark tornado season (March–May). One inch of rain on a 2,000 sq. ft. roof generates over 1,200 gallons. Standard retail guards overflow in minutes. Our 50-micron 316 stainless mesh is rated for 150 in/hr — the only technology engineered to match actual NWA storm intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straightforward answers about our marine-grade 316 stainless mesh, roof shingle safety, warranty terms, and direct contractor pricing.

Plastic screens warp and crack under the Arkansas summer sun, and their large openings let pine needles and oak catkins slip right through into the gutter trough. Reverse-curve 'helmet' covers rely on surface tension, which frequently fails during heavy downpours, causing sheets of water to spill over your gutters and pool around your foundation. Our marine-grade 316 stainless steel micro-mesh sits in a heavy-gauge aluminum frame, keeping out even the finest organic debris while capturing 100% of rainwater.
