Gutter Brush Reviews

There's no question that one of the worst areas of home maintenance is having to clean out the rain gutters. I haven't met anyone yet who says that gutter cleaning is fun. Not only is it physically draining by having to climb up and down the ladder all around the house, but digging out wet leaves and debris that have accumulated over the months just plain... stinks.

I can remember one time last year I made the mistake of using my bare hands to grab all the gunk out of the gutters on our home. The next thing I knew my hands smelled like rotten sewage for the next 2 days! Sure, you can call out the gutter cleaning companies to do it for you, but at what cost? 

Fortunately, there is an easier solution that will put a stop to having to constantly clean gutters, and that is installing gutter brushes. The Gutter Brush not only reduces the time spent on gutter cleaning, but it saves you money and is so simple and easy to install and maintain.

Here's a closer look at what gutter brushes are all about and what you can expect from using them on your home.

Gutter Brush Full Review

Flexible And Durable

One of the biggest advantages of the gutter brush over other types of gutter protection or gutter guards is in how flexible it is to use. Similar to the old fashioned pipe cleaners, the material bends to fit all types of gutter channels and around corners.

The polypropylene material of the brush is built into a galvanized steel wire and also UV coated. It's designed to last for many years to come. You won't find yourself having to replace it 5 years from now. That's nice peace of mind for sure.

Fits All Types And Sizes Of Rain Gutters

The gutter brush is also designed to fit every type and size of gutter used on homes today. They have a standard size that fits 5" channels and can be used in vinyl, aluminum, copper, PVC, galvanized or stainless steel gutters. If you have the larger 6" gutters, that's no problem as well, because they make gutter brushes to fit those also.

Fits Any Length Of Gutters

The length of your rain gutters is not an issue as well. Gutter brushes come in multiple lengths to fit all sizes, regardless of whether you have need for just 30 feet or 3,000 feet and more. You simply order enough to fit the total combined length of your gutters.

The GutterBrush comes in various sizes of 30 feet, 45 feet, 60 feet, 120 or 135 feet. So it's very easy to simply order the lengths you specifically need.

Quick And Easy Installation (No tools required)

The single biggest issue with most all gutter covers or gutter protection systems is installing them. Many have to be installed by drilling holes or inserting screws. Others have to have precision cuts to fit perfectly. You'll need all kinds of tools and expertise in order to install them properly. Well, there's something to be said for "simple". And that is what the gutter brush installation is.

You do not need any tools, nor do you need to have carpentry experience or be roofer in order to install it. You do not have to modify the roof or mess with the gutters at all.

Finally, you do not need to spend an entire weekend getting it put in place. In fact, for the average sized home, it will only take only an hour or two at most. This is not like trying to install the gutter helmet, gutter guard or other type of gutter screen that requires an enormous amount of time and installation skills.

Installing the gutter brush is basically as simple as this:

1. Clean the gutters out before installing.
2. Place each section of the Gutter Guard into your rain gutter.
3. When you get to the end of the gutter channel and you need to modify the length to fit, just fold or bend over the brush on top of itself to fit perfectly in the gutter.

That's it. And this is why I say that installation is such a breeze. Compare this to spending countless hours trying to figure out how to install a gutter guard or other type of gutter topper or product.

Protects Against Leaves, Twigs And Other Debris

Being easy to install is one thing, but what will it protect your gutters against? Certainly, it is going to prevent leaves, twigs and seedpods from clogging up your gutter channel, but these brushes keep out much more than that. You can expect them to prevent birds, squirrels. rodents or insects from building nests or living inside the gutters as well. Yes, some birds will actually build nests in gutters.

Rainwater flows down through the gutter brushes and into the downspout, but the debris stays out.

Provides Year Round Protection

Like other gutter guard systems, the gutter brush works year round. But one of the other things I like about this system is how it also works in the winter. If you live in a cold weather climate you know how bad ice can accumulate in your home's gutter system. Ice can even become so heavy that it collapses older roof gutters.

The polypropylene bristles with this style of protection are designed to hold in the heat. That can help you and your home by melting any ice buildup much more quickly and effectively.

Easy Maintenance

Maintaining gutter brushes is quick and easy. You simply lift them out of the gutter channel and shake off any leaves, twigs or other debris. Set them back down when finished and that's it. What you will most likely find in many cases is that the sun, wind and other weather elements will actually blow the leaves away, or they will naturally decompose, to where you do not even need to clean them at all.

Cost Effective

It's hard to argue the cost effectiveness of this type of system. When you sit down to look at it and compare it with the various options you have in gutter leaf protection systems, you'll see the value in a gutter brush. There's no more having to pay for gutter cleaning or shelling out thousands of dollars for a gutter leaf guard system, not to mention the added costs for installation.

Add in the ease of installing the brushes and the fact you need no tools or special skills to do the job, and you can see that that this is a good option for keeping your gutters cleaned out for years to come.

25 Year Warranty

The GutterBrush comes with a 25-year warranty for materials and workmanship. But... you also get a full one-year satisfaction guarantee. If you don't like how well the product works you can return it for a refund. That's the type of guarantee that I like and wish that all products had.

Summary of Reviews

Out of the many types of gutter protection systems available today, the gutter brush is hard to beat. The ease of installation, which requires no tools or skills, makes it possible for anyone to set up.

The costs are low when compared to other systems, and the brushes will fit any size and type of rain gutter.
