Best Gutter Screens to stop gutter clogging

What are Gutter Screens?
Gutter guards are protective covers that go over your gutters to keep leaves, twigs, and other debris out while letting rainwater flow through. They help prevent clogs in your gutters, which can cause water damage to your home. By keeping your gutters clean, gutter guards reduce the need for frequent cleaning and maintenance, making it easier to protect your home from water-related issues. There are dozens of birds, trees, and varmints that add to the clogging of your home's gutters when you live in Los Angeles or Ventura County. Let us first educate you on gutter guards and if you decide you need them simply call us or fill out our form and we'll get back to you within 1-2 business hours.
What types of roofs can gutter screens go on?
At AD Green Gutters and Screens, we can install gutter screens on nearly any roof type—including shingle, tile, flat, and metal roofs. Each installation method is adjusted based on your home’s roofing material to ensure a proper fit and long-term hold. For example, Spanish tile roofs often require specialized brackets for a secure attachment, while composition and flat roofs use low-profile designs to maintain drainage flow. Our team ensures every screen blends seamlessly with your gutters without affecting your roof warranty or appearance.
What do gutter screens cost?
AD Green Gutters and Screens provides affordable, high-quality gutter protection systems for homes and businesses throughout Los Angeles and Ventura County. Pricing depends on the total linear footage, roof access, and the type of screen material selected. Most installations range from $9 to $16 per linear foot, including materials and labor. We provide free on-site estimates, so you’ll know your total cost upfront before scheduling service—no surprises, just reliable pricing and fast installation.
How long does it take AD Green Gutters to install them?
Most gutter screen installations can be completed by AD Green Gutters and Screens in just 2–4 hours, depending on roof height and accessibility. Larger properties or multi-building installations may take a full day, especially when paired with gutter cleaning or repair. Since we keep most screen materials in stock, same-week installation is typically available for homeowners in Woodland Hills and surrounding areas. Our goal is to protect your gutters quickly and efficiently so you can avoid clogs and enjoy year-round peace of mind.
KEY BENEFITS OF GUTTER SCREENS
Protect Your Home's Foundation
When gutters clog, rainwater can overflow and pool around your home’s foundation, leading to cracks, soil erosion, and costly repairs that can exceed
$5,000–$20,000. AD Green Gutter Screens prevent that damage by keeping water flowing away from your property year-round. Our systems, which typically cost
$1,500–$3,000 installed and last
10–15 years, provide long-term protection that safeguards your home’s structure, landscaping, and overall value for a fraction of what foundation repairs would cost.
Screens Cost Less than Cleaning
Most homes and businesses need
2–3 professional gutter cleanings per year, often costing
$250–$400 each time. Over ten years, that’s thousands spent just to keep water flowing. AD Green Gutter Screens eliminate that expense entirely. Our premium systems typically last
10–15 years and cost between
$1,500–$3,000 installed, depending on the size and complexity of your roofline. With a one-time installation, you’ll save money year after year—no ladders, no cleaning, no clogs.
DIY Gutter Screen Risks
DIY gutter screen projects might seem cheaper at first, but the risks often outweigh the savings. Climbing ladders or working from rooftops can lead to serious injuries—emergency room visits or hospital stays that can cost
$2,000–$10,000 or more, not to mention time off work or worse. Add in the price of materials from a home improvement store ($400–$900 for lower-grade screens) and an entire weekend of labor, and you’ve spent nearly as much as a professional install. AD Green Gutters completes most projects in just a few hours using high-quality, long-lasting materials—keeping you safe, saving time, and guaranteeing professional results that last 10–15 years.
Three Gutter Screen Materials to choose from
Aluminum Black Gutter Screen
Our aluminum gutter guards feature a black powder-coated steel frame covered by a black-coated aluminum mesh with 18 holes per square inch. This combination effectively blocks out all but the tiniest tree debris, ensuring your gutters remain free-flowing and maintenance-free.
Stainless Steel Gutter Screen
Our stainless steel gutter guards are the epitome of premium protection. Constructed with an aluminum substrate covered by surgical steel mesh boasting 42 holes per square inch, these guards are designed to keep out anything but water. They are the ideal choice for East Bay homeowners seeking uncompromising quality.
Steel Gutter Screen
For a cost-effective solution that doesn't compromise on quality, consider our steel gutter guards. Available with large, standard, or tiny holes, we recommend the tiny hole product for its ability to keep out the majority of tree debris. This option is perfect for budget-conscious homeowners who want reliable protection.
Z-Bend or Standard Designs
Choose between two gutter guard styles for your home. The “Z” Bend Design fits tightly inside the gutter, ideal for concrete tile, slate, and metal roofs where installation under roofing is difficult. The “Standard” Design locks onto the front edge and tucks beneath the roofline, offering durable, steel-based protection with smooth water flow.
The Woodland Hills Seamless Gutter Process Explained
1
Quick Gutter Screen Assessment
A quick phone call gets your project started. We’ll estimate the size, roof type, and number of linear feet needed, giving you a same-day ballpark quote. Once on-site, our technician will confirm measurements and provide exact pricing before work begins.
2
Roof and Gutter Inspection
Before installing, we inspect your existing gutters, roof edges, and fascia boards for damage or buildup. Any loose sections or improper slopes are corrected to ensure your new screens fit securely and drain efficiently.
3
Pre-Cleaning and Prep Work
We thoroughly clean all gutters and downspouts, removing leaves, debris, and sediment. This step is crucial for screen performance and long-term protection—your screens should never be installed over dirty gutters.
4
Gutter Screen Installation
Our team installs each screen section by hand, ensuring a tight, uniform fit across every edge and joint. We secure the panels beneath your shingles or directly to your gutter lip (depending on roof type) to maximize strength and minimize maintenance.
5
System Testing
We perform a full water-flow test to confirm that all screens allow smooth drainage while blocking debris. Downspouts are checked for proper flow to prevent overflow or foundation runoff.
6
Clean-Up and Final Review
After installation, we clean the work area, rinse gutters, and do a final inspection with you to review the finished work. Most projects are completed in 2–5 hours, depending on the roofline and property size.
