"What A Clever Gutter Filter!" We often hear..."How'd you come up with the idea?"
So here you go... "Once Upon A Time"...

1980 - Regular Gutter Cleaning - No Gutter Guards

A Cabin In the Woods with Gutters

Like many classic tales this too starts with a cabin in the woods. For more than 30 years, Bob Schreiber has enjoyed vacations, hunting and fishing with family and friends at his cabin tucked away in the Allegheny National Forest of Western Pennsylvania. The cabin is nestled under a thick canopy of debris shedding trees and the never ending need to clean out the gutters was always high on the list of chores to be done.

1990 - Gutter Guard Mistake

Hmmm...This Looks Useful

One year Bob came across an old twisted brush in a storage area and he thought that it may come in handy during the tedious task of gutter cleaning. We think it was an old chimney sweep brush. As luck would have it, the brush was accidentally left in the gutter where it remained until the next cabin visit about 6-8 months later.

1991 - Brush Gutter Guards Really Work!

Accidents Happen.. Sometimes Good Ones!

Gutter cleaning was back on the 'To Do List' for the next cabin visit, and the gutters were loaded with leaves, acorns, pine needles, etc... But look at that!? A small area where the old brush still rested was remarkably clear from debris! As the saying goes... An idea was born!

2000 - Preventing Clogged Gutters

Testing Gutter Guard Performance

During the next few years the concept of filling the entire gutter channel with a cylinder shaped brush was explored and tested to see if this simple idea might solve the problem of clogged gutters and reduce gutter cleaning. The results were incredibly favorable and the "eureka" moment was confirmed as a simple, effective solution to an age old problem. No more clogged gutters.

2004 - A New Gutter Guard Solution

2005 - Gutter Leaf Guard For Anyone
