Thank you very much.

I am very satisfied with the service we received. I found the salesperson to be friendly, knowledgeable and informative. What he promised, he delivered.

How To Clean Your Eavestrough

The first and most important part of cleaning your eavestrough is to safely position
your ladder against the side of your home. Use a stepladder whenever you can
where the ground is solid and level, and if you have a two-story home, use an extension
ladder, but ensure that it’s securely leaned against your home.
You’ll want to wear gloves to protect your hands and use two buckets: one for the
debris you collect and the other for any tools you use. Start cleaning your eavestrough
near a downspout, clearing larger debris like leaves by hand. For smaller,
compacted debris, you can use a scoop or a trowel to remove it.
Once you’ve cleared the debris, you’ll need to remove and clean downspout
strainers, then, using a garden house, flush out your eavestrough with water,
ensuring that it comes pouring out of the downspout unobstructed.

Having Your Eavestrough Professionally Cleaned

Because cleaning your eavestrough is such a messy and potentially dangerous
process, many people choose to have their eavestrough professionally cleaned. And if
you feel unsafe using tall ladders or you simply don’t want to have to deal with the
arduous process, you can turn to Trades By Jack for eavestrough cleaning.
Also, in addition to cleaning your eavestrough, we’ll closely inspect it to see if there are
any parts that need to be repaired. These include broken pieces, missing parts, any
signs of sagging, and any sections that have started pulling away from your home.
Quickly identifying and repairing your eavestrough allows it to better protect your
home from damage that will result in costly repairs in the future.

Install LeafGuard For Better Protection

If your eavestrough system is old, damaged, or you’re simply tired of constantly
having to clean it out, you can install a new LeafGuard eavestrough protection
system to eliminate the need to clean them. LeafGuard gutters feature a built-in
hood that is guaranteed to keep your eavestrough clog-free. As a result, the one-piece design
allows water to flow in through the front-facing entrance while keeping debris out.
Trades By Jack can install a LeafGuard system for homeowners in Mississauga and
other cities in Ontario and throughout the GTA. Also, if you’re tired of standard gutter
covers that can damage the shingles on your roof, visit our website at
leafguard.ca and contact us today to find out more about how a LeafGuard
system can help protect your home. Then you’ll never again have to worry about cleaning
out a messy eavestrough! Also, you’ll get to meet a friendly Jack of all trades and learn about the many offerings there are at Trades by Jack.
Because Trades by Jack is a multi faceted organization, we can offer you many different ways of making your home safer and more beautiful. As well as keeping our customers off the ladder to clean their gutters, we also keep them off the ladder at Christmas time with our Gemstone Lights. And you can check it all out at leafguard.ca.

The effectiveness of your rainwater management system is largely affected by its design. There are many systems available in the industry, however, too many of these systems lack the quality design to keep rainwater from damaging your home. At Trades by Jack, we carry a one-piece, seamless eavestrough protection system that uses an innovative, patented design to increase its effectiveness, aesthetic, and ability to stay clog-free. It’s due to the unique design that our eavestrough system has earned the approval of the Good Housekeeping Institute and carries their reputable seal. The Good Housekeeping Seal is proof of our system’s effectiveness and if the system proves to be defective over the first two years after purchase, the Good Housekeeping warranty will take care of it.

One-Piece, Seamless Eavestrough Protection System

The seamless design and one-piece construction of our eavestrough system gives it a low-maintenance quality that no other system possesses. The primary difference can be found in the built-in hood that keeps the trough clear of debris, meaning you never have to worry about clogs again. Furthermore, the one piece of extruded heavy-duty aluminum from which our gutters are made presents a seamless aesthetic that prevents leaks commonly found in sectional eavestrough systems. The lack of seams also means there’s no need for routine maintenance and resealing every season, significantly reducing the cost of general upkeep.

One of the best features of our seamless eavestrough systemis that it’s roll-formed on-site from one-piece of heavy-duty aluminum with the hood formed into the trough itself. That’s what makes the design of LeafGuard’sone-piece piece system so effective and unique. Other systems require or come with a separate piece for protection against clogs that is attached via your roof or internal brackets. Our eavestrough actually has the cover built into it, making it the only true seamless, one-piece gutter system.

Exceptional Eavestrough Design & Installation

At Trades by Jack, we employ only the finest installers and representatives in order to provide you with stellar service and quality information about our wonderful products and services. Each of our installers are professionally trained to ensure that your home is equipped with the perfect-fitting eavestrough system. We make this happen with our “factory on wheels” in which we custom form your LeafGuard system on site to the exact measurements of your home. Our installation process also makes use of special internal brackets that are screwed into your fascia board, providing extra support and strength to your new eavestrough system. Let your home transcend the current standard by contacting us today for a free consultation!

The post The Advantages of LeafGuard Seamless Gutters appeared first on Trades by Jack.

Eavestrough systems are designed to serve two primary purposes; the main one is to redirect rainwater away from your home and the other is to maintain or enhance your home’s curb appeal. The redirection of water is the most important function because it prevents water damage from occurring at the foundation, fascia, landscape, etc. The secondary function of maintaining or enhancing the curb appeal of your home is provided by the seamless beauty and elegant curvature of the system’s sleek one-piece design.

In addition to these qualities, our eavestroughs are also designed to remain clog-free by integrating the innovation of a built-in curved hood that completely covers the top of the trough. Despite the top being fully covered, water is still able to enter the trough by adhering to the surface of the hood and flowing over its gentle curvature at front-facing entrance.

Physics in Action with Liquid Adhesion

The principle of liquid adhesion is what makes our LeafGuard eavestrough system so exceptional. Water adheres to the smooth and rounded surface of the hood and enters the trough via the front-facing ingress. The curve at the front of the hood allows the surface tension of the water to continue without disruption until it reaches the end inside the trough. All of this takes place while the hood continues to shed debris of any size that could potentially clog the system. Even pine needles cannot make their way into the LeafGuard system. Additionally, our system’s oversized downspouts keep even the heaviest amounts of rainwater flowing safely away from the base of your home.

Proven Efficiency & Quality with LeafGuard

The quality and efficiency or our LeafGuard system has been proven time and again on homes across the greater Toronto area and beyond, including those in and surrounding areas. In fact, the eavestrough systems we carry at Trades by Jack have earned the Good Housekeeping Institute’s approval and carry their seal as a testament to their quality. The proven quality of our eavestrough system has made us one of the most trusted names in the industry. Not only is our product of the highest quality but each of our installers are expertly trained to provide you with a perfect fitting eavestrough system. Start enjoying quality protection and exception beauty for your home today by contacting us about our magnificent LeafGuard system.

The post LeafGuard Gutters Have Tremendous Aesthetic Appeal appeared first on Trades by Jack.

The eavestrough protection system we carry at Trades by Jack is the only “all-in-one” solution tor rainwater management available. The reason we confidently refer to it as the only “all in one” system is because combines the qualities of eavestrough protection with those of a standard eavestrough system into one sleek, seamless package. The trough is extruded from one piece of heavy-duty aluminum to create a seamless one-piece system with a built-in hood. The curved hood completely covers the top of the trough but still allows water to flow into the trough via the front facing entrance. The system uses the water’s surface tension to keep it flowing along the smooth surface of the curved hood and into the trough. Meanwhile, any debris that may fall onto the hood harmlessly sheds to ground.

Designed and Engineered to Protect Your Home:

• Seamless Design: Our seamless eavestrough system takes away the potential of leaks forming at worn seals at the seam since it’s a seamless system. The seamless design also means that you don’t have to constantly reapply sealants or welds throughout the year, dramatically cutting down on maintenance costs and labour.
• One-Piece, Built-in Protection: LeafGuard is the only true one-piece eavestrough system with a built-in hood. There’s no need to purchase any aftermarket covers to prevent clogs since one’s already built onto the system.
• Installation: We use screws instead of nails or spikes, which greatly reduces the chance of sagging or falling gutters. Additionally, the internal hangers we use prevent any contact with your roof, keeping its warranty intact. The hangers also provide extra strength and support to the entire system.
• Beauty & Appeal: Our eavestrough system provides low profile beauty with a sleek built-in hood that won’t damage your roofline so your home keeps its stylish curb appeal. Additionally, our LeafGuard system is equipped with ScratchGuard® paint finish to prevent color from chipping, peeling, or cracking.

Protect Your Home with the LeafGuard System

The patented one-piece seamless LeafGuard eavestrough system is a proven product that has earned its reputation of being a high performing system by providing quality protection for homes in and surrounding areas. The Good Housekeeping Institute has even recognized it as an outstanding product worthy of the Good Housekeeping Seal. Qualities and design innovations such as its oversized downspouts, internal hangers, and built-in hood have put it leagues ahead of the competition.
