While
Cleaning my gutters I Saw…..
I
self-admittedly dislike cleaning rain gutters, but we still had not installed Gutter Topper on our personal garage until
recently. Our barn and entire house has
our gutter system including Gutter Topper, except our garage. Why? because I could reach them with a 6-foot
ladder and it provided me with some exercise…right?
Let me
provide a little history. Back in year
2000 we discovered Gutter Topper as a solution to protecting gutter systems and
decided to test it on our barn. With
heavy snow loads in New Hampshire and Vermont, we quickly realized Gutter
Topper created a year-round maintenance free gutter system surviving our New
England winters. We have since carried
Gutter Topper installing over 20 miles of it since becoming a certified trained
installation dealer in 2000 serving Central and Southern NH and VT. Our
brother in law, Bill Worth and wife Joanne, (Worth’s Seamless Rain Gutters Inc)
in Derby Vermont carries it too!
But despite
all of the above and co-owning a rain gutter business with my husband for the
past 20 years while living in New London NH, I had still cleaned out our garage
gutters until……I had a visitor stop in while I was cleaning my gutters. He entered our chicken coop which is attached
to our garage. I nearly fell off my
ladder! Mr. Bear quietly peeled the
chicken wire off the 2x4 to make his way into our coop. As I stood on my 6-foot step ladder, Mr. Bear
sat, scratched his head and searched for a fine feathered mid-afternoon
snack. I didn’t know what to do! So, I did the only thing I could, I took my iPhone
out of my arm band and snapped a few pictures.
I quietly climbed off the ladder and ran into my house. Safely inside watching Mr. Bear from my
window.
Since then Gutter
Topper has been installed on my garage, leaving me with more interesting, safer
things to do, like practice and study my ChiRunning and ChiWalking, exercise,
cook, clean my house, go fishing, spending time with family and friends, travel
and work on my blogging. Anything but
clean gutters!
So what does
Gutter Topper do?
· It handles 21 inches of rainfall per
hour.
· Withstands a load of 300 pounds per
lineal foot, surviving New England Winters.
· Withstands sustained winds of 100
mph.
· Keeps me (and you) off the ladder while
enjoying life safely.
Some of the
other Gutter Topper Benefits are:
· Every installation is custom fit to
your roof, this is not a one size fits all system.
· Stanchion system is continuous across
the front which provides support for heavy snow and ice loads and prevents wind
lift or vibration and eliminates bird nesting.

· Eliminate thinking about your gutter
system; Year Round.
So what happened to Mr.
Bear?
He found no
mid-afternoon snack and decided to go to the neighbors.
