Case study
Gutter Guard Installation — Bowral

Full-perimeter colour-matched gutter guard installed on a Bowral home surrounded by mature eucalypts — reducing cleaning frequency and adding a layer of ember protection.
The challenge
The homeowner had been cleaning gutters two to three times a year under heavy eucalyptus leaf drop. A previous drop-in plastic 'leaf guard' had blown out in storms and was making blockages worse. With bushfire season approaching, they wanted a permanent solution that also improved ember safety.
What we did
Removed the old plastic inserts and cleared the gutters back to bare metal. Installed premium Australian-made aluminium ember mesh across the full perimeter, Colorbond® colour matched to the existing roof and gutters. Every clip, saddle and trim was fixed to manufacturer spec so the mesh sits proud enough for leaves to blow off.
- Removed and disposed of failing plastic drop-in guards
- Cleared gutters and downpipes back to bare metal
- Installed AS3959-compliant aluminium ember mesh
- Colorbond® colour matched to existing roof and gutters
- Photo report delivered same day
The outcome
The homeowner's gutter cleaning frequency dropped from three times a year to a single visual inspection. The property is now visually cleaner from the street and better protected during ember attack in a fire event.
