Quick answer
Gutter Guards in Buckhead & West Atlanta, GA: The Brothers That Just Do Gutters Buckhead and West Atlanta installs one gutter guard from Sandy Springs to Marietta and Newnan: BroGuard, a stainless micro-mesh guard that stops oak leaves, pine straw, sweetgum balls and pollen while heavy rain flows through. A Solutionist checks your gutters and trees before quoting it. Call (770) 213-1621 or book online.
A good guard is part of a gutter system that works, not an extra. Around Atlanta the trouble is not just the fall leaf drop. It is oak leaves and pine straw, sweetgum balls, the yellow coat of spring pine and oak pollen, and the red clay grit that washes into the trough from the roof. This page covers why a guard matters here and how to judge one, and the BroGuard page covers the guard we install.

Why Atlanta gutters need a guard, and what makes a good one
What lands on an Atlanta roof, what a guard has to stop, and why BroGuard is the only guard our crews install.
Choosing a guard is really a question about debris. Big oak leaves are the easy part. The fine stuff is where guards fail: pine needles, oak catkins, spring pollen and clay grit slip through larger openings and settle in the trough, where they wait for the next storm.
About 50 inches of rain a year falls on Atlanta, heaviest in winter and in summer thunderstorms, so a gutter has to stay clear year round. A Buckhead estate and a 1920s bungalow in Inman Park face the same problem. That is why we put BroGuard stainless micro-mesh on Atlanta homes.
What to look for in a guard for Atlanta debris
| What lands on your roof | What the guard has to do | How BroGuard handles it |
|---|---|---|
| Oak leaves | Stop wet leaves that layer up on coarse guards | BroGuard holds them on the surface, where wind and rain clear most of them |
| Pine straw | Keep needles out; a heavy drop will still rest on top | The fine mesh keeps needles out of the trough |
| Sweetgum balls | Stop spiky seed pods that jam corners and outlets | Seed pods sit on top of the mesh instead of in the outlets |
| Spring pollen and clay grit | Block the finest debris without blocking water | Rain runs straight through while grit stays on the surface |
Want the details on the guard itself? See the BroGuard gutter guard page.
A quick checklist before you choose any guard
- Openings fine enough for pine needles, pollen and clay grit, not just big leaves.
- All metal, so nothing on the roof edge crumbles in the sun or holds water.
- Fastened along the gutter so it stays put when a summer storm blows through.
- Lets a summer thunderstorm through the surface instead of over the edge.
- Goes on a gutter that is clean, pitched right and solidly hung.
- Fits your roof edge, from 1960s ranches to big Buckhead rooflines.
Why BroGuard is the guard we install
BroGuard checks every box on that list. It is stainless steel micro-mesh that keeps oak leaves, pine straw, sweetgum balls and pollen on top while rain runs straight through. The panels are fastened along the gutter, so they hold through summer storms, and they sit low enough that you barely see them from the street. It is the only guard our Buckhead and West Atlanta crews install, and you can watch it work on the BroGuard gutter guard page.
What a guard will not fix
- Fix a gutter that sags, leaks at the seams or is too small for the roof; we handle the gutter repair first.
- Keep pine straw and leaves from resting on top after a windy storm.
- Move runoff away from a foundation on a sloped lot; that is a job for underground drainage.
- Save old sectional gutters that leak at every joint, where a new seamless run usually makes more sense first.
Guarded homes move to a lighter schedule through our maintenance program rather than none at all. If you want a clean slate before deciding, start with a gutter cleaning, and for apartment buildings and HOA properties see our commercial gutters page.

Atlanta Gutter Guard Questions, Answered
It covers the top of the gutter so leaves, pine needles, seed pods, pollen and pests stay out while rain still drains in. That keeps the trough from clogging, cuts down on cleanings and protects your fascia, foundation and planting beds from overflow. BroGuard, the guard we install, is all metal.
BroGuard. Its stainless micro-mesh stops the small debris that slips past coarser guards: oak leaves, pine straw, spring pollen and red clay grit. It is the only guard our Buckhead and West Atlanta crews install, and a Solutionist checks your gutters before quoting it.
Usually. Without guards, most Atlanta gutters under oaks and pines need a clean-out after the fall leaf drop and again after the spring pollen and catkins. Unless you do that yourself, the cleaning bills add up fast, and a good guard does away with most interior cleanings.
That is when they earn their keep. Atlanta gets about 50.4 inches of rain a year, with the wettest stretches in winter and in summer thunderstorms. A guarded gutter stays clear between storms instead of filling with leaves and pollen, so the water reaches the downspouts instead of spilling over.
Yes. A covered gutter keeps out squirrels, birds and other small animals looking for a nesting spot, and it cuts down on mosquitoes and spiders that move into wet debris and standing water.
Yes. We cover multi-unit buildings and HOA communities in Sandy Springs, Smyrna and Marietta, including long rooflines where a clogged gutter spills onto shared walkways. See our commercial gutters page or ask for an estimate for your property.

Why the Brothers
Why Atlanta Homeowners Call the Brothers
We started out skeptical of guards, so we researched and installed the options ourselves. Mesh came out on top, and that is why BroGuard leads.
If a run is sagging or leaking, we fix it before covering it. You are not paying to guard a gutter that still needs work.
Matthew Prewett owns this territory, and the crews work out of Thornton Road in Lithia Springs. Dial (770) 213-1621 and a local voice picks up.
If your gutters only need a cleaning schedule, we will tell you. Solutionists recommend guards when they solve a real problem on your roof.

What Atlanta Homeowners Say
“Everything was very smooth from the beginning to the end. It was very easy to schedule someone to come out and get a quote for gutter guards. I was able to schedule the installation the following week. Matthew also kept me updated throughout the whole process. Communication was great !”
Posted on Google“Everything was done in an efficient manner and was exactly as described throughout our quote. The installers made a prudent decision to delay briefly due to weather concerns, but communicated that and the reschedule date in a timely manner. These folks are solid.”
Posted on Google“Great job by the team based out of Lithia Springs, GA. We have A LOT of gutters on our home and some were 25+ feet high and they replaced all of them for us. We recommend using them. On time each day and they worked hard!”
