Gumleaf™ Gutter Guard Protection Southland Otago Regions
Gumleaf™ Gutter Guard Protection Southland, and the Otago Region. Finding a GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection product and service in the Southland and Otago region is a search that just became a whole lot simpler.
Rohan Rudd (Franchise Owner) and Karl Hishon, (Gutter Guys South) gutter guard installer, Builder and Roofer are both highly experienced and recognised as experts in their field. They are both proud to be offering this durable and stylish product as a residential or commercial gutter protection system. Great news for the Southland and Otago region as we all know the weather in these regions can be extreme and unforgiving – and so is the impact on your guttering…..destructive. Having your guttering overflowing with unwanted debris prevents the natural flow of rainwater and when water has no suitable exit it tends to travel indoors. When leaves, pine needles or birds’ nests are pushed into your downspouts the resulting blockages cause deterioration and rust and your rain harvesting facility will slow to basically 0 or E for Empty
Cleaning out guttering is a job no one enjoys but what if your gutters had minimal need for this kind of maintenance from here on in? GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection has earned the respect from property owners all over New Zealand.
Rohan Rudd knows that respect is earnt and he has watched the
respect grow from the reputation GumLeaf™ has gathered since its invention in the new millennium.
GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection is laid by measuring and cutting correct lengths of colour-coordinated BHP Colourbond®. It is hand folded, screwed and glued under your tiles for a tile roof or under the corrugated iron for a steel roof.
Sound simple? That’s because it is – Rohan and his team are technical in their installation approach but are the first to admit that applying GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection isn’t rocket science. In fact, there’s plenty of DIY assistance available if you are keen to lay the product yourself (and have a head for heights) as the results will still speak for themselves.
Health and Safety/ Insurance
Health and Safety/ Insurance Gumleaf™ Gutter Guard Protection Southland Otago Regions. The team from GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection, Southland and Otago region recommend fully that you look after your gutters. As the old saying goes “prevention is better than cure” and even Gen Z future homeowners should probably understand and follow through with that sound advice.
The reason to protect your home and your gutters is mostly to do with insurance. Your home is usually your biggest and most valuable asset and if insured correctly you would hope to be covered for any need that arises.
However, when it comes to the internal water damage caused by a leaky or ineffective gutter, please read the small print on your insurance document.
If that damage stems from neglecting to maintain your guttering you just may not be covered. Insurance clauses such as “reasonable maintenance and repair” and “take all reasonable precautions to prevent loss occurring” come into play and as a property owner your commitment to checking, maintaining and upgrading your guttering is well worth upholding.
The easiest way to circumnavigate this stress is by installing GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection. GumLeaf™ provides a long-lasting and functional solution to keeping your gutters clear which minimises the chance of any damage caused when debris restrict water flow and it also allows snow to fall right off, not causing any build up.
During our installation process we are covered by $2,000,000 of liability insurance to protect your property and surrounds should an accident occur, and this is just one example of our commitment to following best practice standards as per WorkSafe’s Working at Height guidelines and the Health and Safety at Work Act, 2015, unit standard 15757 & AS: NZ 1891.4.2007.
Our team are also Site Safe certified and fully responsive to risk management when working on roofs, including safety controls to prevent falls from roofs and the correct use of safety equipment.
We look forward to talking to you about the enduring functional improvements that result when GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection is installed – saving you time, dollars and giving you peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions
If you live in the Southland Otago region you might have a few
questions about GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection. We’ll try to help pre-empt and answer some of those here, as below, but please contact us anytime for further information:
Can I DIY GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection?
Yes you can, it’s available for purchase from Bunnings Warehouse, ITM, Placemakers or Mitre10 and we can sell the product to you directly for a competitive price.
Do you clean the gutters before installation?
Yes, all gutters, valleys and down-pipes need to cleaned fully before GumLeaf™ gutter protection is installed.
What is the product made of?
GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection is constructed from Australian-made BHP BlueScope Colorbond® steel.
Is GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection more durable in plastic, aluminium or steel?
The BHP BlueScope Steel we use is the best product for the best longevity and effectiveness. Plastics expand and contract, causing them to crack, bubble and most are highly flammable requiring more maintenance. Due to this we remove most
plastic guard within 5-6 years.
Can I match the colour to my roof?
Yes, it is available in most COLORSTEEL® or COLORBOND® colours, however, for tile roofs it is only available in Woodland Grey.
Does it look attractive?
Yes, it’s nicely coordinated with your roofline and from the ground it is invisible
Is the product expensive?
GumLeaf™’s pricing is very competitive. We purchase at cost from our suppliers in Australia and pass on this discount directly to our customers.
How long will it last?
GumLeaf™ offers a warranty of 15 years, but we expect the product to perform efficiently for well over 20 years’.
What about maintenance?
Once GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection is installed very little extra maintenance is required. We do recommend you occasionally remove the minimal amount of debris that may not have been blown off or washed off the gutter guard. Also flush out the
spouting via the trap doors installed at the opposite end to the downpipes, we install hatches to enable this to be done easily.
Will GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection save me time?
Without gutter protection you will have to spend time clearing your gutters to ensure your insurance clauses on ‘reasonable maintenance’ are upheld.
Frequently asked questions
Can GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection prevent insect infestations?
Insects such as mosquitos love stagnant water which is created by blocked gutters – it’s a breeding ground for them! So no standing water = no breeding insects.
Will GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection improve water flow?
Without blockages such as leaves, nests, and debris, rainwater is going to flow faster. If you rely on a rain tank as a water supply you’re in luck as the fast-moving water will also have fewer particulates and contaminants so better quality water.
Will GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection prevent overflows?
When a gutter gets blocked by debris it can cause water to start overflowing. An excess or overflow of water can damage the property foundation causing water to infiltrate your basement and cause staining on your siding. (See our section about
insurance.)
Will GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection prevent snow and hail from gathering?
Yes, both of these weather effects roll right off so water can continue to flow
unchecked.
Will GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection keep me and my home safer?
Cleaning gutters can be dangerous. Climbing up on a high ladder while reaching out to remove debris is risky without the proper gear and experience and injury can occur easily.
Will GumLeaf™ Gutter Guard Protection improve my home’s resale value?
Most people looking to buy a home want one that requires minimal maintenance and has been well maintained. Negating the extra workload of cleaning and cleaning gutters, particularly on a multi-storied property, is a selling point for a new buyer.
