Tired of Cleaning Gutters Every Few Months?
Eucalyptus leaves, gum nuts, and debris constantly blocking your gutters? Quality gutter guards eliminate 90% of gutter maintenance—and protect your home from water damage when storms hit between cleans.
We install premium aluminium mesh gutter guards designed for Australian conditions. They handle heavy rain, resist coastal corrosion, and last 20+ years. One installation, decades of protection.
Why Peninsula Homes Need Gutter Guards
The Mornington Peninsula is beautiful, but those eucalyptus and gum trees wreak havoc on gutters. Constant leaf drop means gutters block quickly—and blocked gutters cause expensive damage.
❌ Without Gutter Guards
- •Cleaning gutters 2-4 times per year
- •Overflow damage between cleans
- •Fascia rot from trapped moisture
- •Rust from decomposing leaves
- •Fire risk from dry leaf buildup
✅ With Gutter Guards
- •Maintenance every 2-3 years (90% reduction)
- •Water flows freely, even in storms
- •No debris to trap moisture
- •Extended gutter lifespan
- •Ember protection in fire season
The Investment Makes Sense
Cleaning costs 2x yearly

Gutter Guard Installation Across the Peninsula
We install gutter guards throughout Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. Many areas have heavy tree coverage that makes guards particularly worthwhile.
Gutter Guard FAQs
Are gutter guards worth the investment?
For most Peninsula homes, absolutely. If you're paying for gutter cleaning twice a year (and many need it more often), gutter guards typically pay for themselves within 3-5 years. But the real value is avoiding water damage from blocked gutters between cleans. Properties with heavy tree coverage, eucalyptus, or gums benefit most. Newer homes with minimal trees may not need them yet.
What type of gutter guard is best for Australian conditions?
We primarily install aluminium mesh gutter guards—they're the best all-rounder for Peninsula conditions. Aluminium won't rust in our coastal air, the mesh is fine enough to block leaves and gum nuts while allowing water through, and they're tough enough to handle heavy rain without collapsing. We avoid plastic guards (UV degradation) and foam inserts (trap water, promote moss).
How do you provide quotes for gutter guard installation?
We provide free, no-obligation quotes after measuring your gutters. Factors affecting price include gutter length, roof type (tile vs metal), home height, and which guard product suits your needs. We'll explain all options and provide a clear quote with no hidden costs. Contact us for a free measure and quote.
Do gutter guards work with heavy rain?
Quality mesh guards handle Australian storms easily—they're designed for our climate. The mesh allows water through while debris slides off or sits on top until it dries and blows away. We've seen our guards handle 100mm+ rainfall events without issues. Cheap guards with small holes can struggle; that's why we use high-flow mesh designed for Australian conditions.
Will I still need to clean my gutters with guards installed?
You'll still need occasional maintenance, but far less frequently—typically once every 2-3 years instead of twice yearly. Some fine debris can accumulate on top over time. The guards themselves usually just need a brush or hose down. For most customers, gutter guards reduce maintenance by 80-90%.
Can gutter guards cause roof damage?
Not if installed correctly. Cheap DIY guards that slide under tiles can lift them and cause leaks. We install using proper brackets that don't interfere with tiles or sheets. Guards that screw into gutters can cause rust around holes if not done properly—we use methods appropriate for your roof type. Professional installation prevents these issues.
Do gutter guards help with fire protection?
Yes, they provide an additional barrier against ember attack. In bushfire-prone areas, we install ember guard mesh that meets BAL requirements—finer mesh that blocks embers while still allowing water through. If you're in a bushfire zone (parts of Langwarrin, Somerville, Hastings), ask about our BAL-rated options.
How long do gutter guards last?
Quality aluminium mesh guards last 20-25+ years. The mesh itself is UV-stabilized and won't degrade. The main wear point is the fixing clips, which are replaceable if needed. We warranty our installations for 10 years on workmanship and the product carries a manufacturer warranty. Cheap plastic or foam guards might only last 5-7 years.
