Gutterglove Can Be Installed on Flat Roofs


Flat Roof

The Gutterglove family of products can fit on all types of roofs including the different types of flat roofs. Typically they are bracketed and mounted under the drip edge instead of the standard installation under the shingle.


For more information about Gutterglove call 262.925.1211 or 888.654.4942. Ask about or May special of up to 30% off. Install yourself and save up to 50%. Need Financing - No Problem. 0% Interest for first 12 months to qualified buyers. Call today for details...
The Different Flat Roof types are: 
* Built-Up Roof (BUR)
The traditional hot-tar-and-gravel roof is built from three or more plies of waterproof material alternated with hot tar and ballasted by a layer of smooth river stone. Once made of tar paper, these types of roofs gradually are using more-advanced materials such as fiberglass membranes.
Pros: Gravel is an excellent fire retardant. Attractive for windows and decks that overlook the roof. It's the cheapest of the four roof varieties.
Cons: Very heavy. Joists sometimes have to be strengthened. Smelly and messy to install. Installation's not recommended for occupied homes. It's not a DIY installation job, and it is hard to find the source of leaks. Gutterglove Pro and Gutterglove IceBreaker are recommented as the gravel can clog gutters and scuppers.
* Modified Bitumen
A single-ply rolled roof similar to ice-and-water shield, but impregnated with a mineral-based wear surface. Torch-down systems involve heating the adhesive as the material is unrolled. Newer peel-and-stick systems are safer and easier.
Pros: Peel-and-stick material can be installed by homeowners. Its light-colored mineral surface reflects heat and cuts energy bills. Its price is in the middle of the pack.
Cons: Torch-down application is a fire hazard, and not recommended for occupied buildings. It's not as scuff- or tear-resistant as rubber-membrane roofs (see the next item).
* Rubber Membrane
EPDM (short for ethylene propylene diene monomer) is a true rubber. The durable material resembles an inner tube, but it's engineered to resist damage from sunlight. EPDM can be mechanically anchored with fasteners, ballasted with stone, or glued.
Pros: Homeowner-friendly installation. The material's relatively light yet highly resistant to scuffs and tears. Leaks are easy to patch.
Cons: The standard black material absorbs heat, and light-colored coatings (recommended in warm climates) add 30% or more to the cost. Even the black version, though, costs more than BUR or modified bitumen. It's also more vulnerable to punctures than other choices.

Benefits of Having Clean Gutters

Clogged Leafguard Gutter

Clogged Gutters can be the cause of many problems around the home.

Can be the Cause of Harmful Allergies:

"When the gutters and drains are clogged, moisture can accumulate in them. This causes harmful bacteria to grow and spread around the roof. This bacterium can easily seep into the home and cause health problems to the people inside. It is important that the gutters are cleaned to remove any clogs so the water can move freely and drain through the pipes."


Can cause mold, mildew and rotting wood:

"Clean gutters do not allow mold to grow. The moisture caused when the water does not drain can also cause mildew. Many times the wood rots in the roof and walls. All of this can cause expensive cleaning and repairs to the home. Many people confuse the green, black or gray colors on their home as a time to paint the home. Most cases this is mold, mildew or rotting wood. Proper measures should be taken to clean the gutters to prevent this type of growth and rot."

Can cause harm to plants in a garden:

"Gutters and drains fill with water and leak over the plants in a garden. Excess water to the plants cuts off oxygen from them and causes them to die. The excess water also causes diseases in plants such as Crown Rot, Root Rot and damping off. It is not easy to revive plants that have been overwatered. Cleaning the gutters keeps the excess water from harming them."


Can create an environment  for Termites:

"Termite infestation is a nightmare. They eat away at the wood and cause extensive damage, which can result in thousands of dollars in repairs. Most times the homeowners insurance will not cover termite damage. When the gutters are overfilled with water, the standing water can seep into the walls of a building. Termites thrive in areas with damp wood."

Can cause the growth of Mosquitoes: 

"Standing water makes mosquitoes grow in numbers. The stagnant water in unclean gutters is a breeding ground for mosquitoes. They can bite a person with yellow fever, encephalitis, malaria and dengue fever and transmit those diseases to another person. It is a good idea to clean the gutters by yourself or hire a professional to keep them clean."

Gutterglove Pro, Ultra, and IceBreaker are the best way to keep gutters from becoming clogged thus avoiding any of these problems. The fine screen mesh is designed to keep all debris from entering the gutters and carries a 15-25 year warranty.
