Sacramento Gutter Guard completed this project in Arden-Arcade, Sacramento County, in October 2026. The crew cleaned and washed out the gutters on a one-story home, then installed about 150 to 160 feet of LeafBlaster Pro 14 mesh gutter guards.

Project overview

The request described about 150 linear feet of gutter on a one-story home. Our notes put it at 150 to 160 feet, toward the smaller end of our usual whole-home guard job.

A one-story home is the simplest setting for this work. The eaves are easy to reach, and the job comes down to clean gutters, sound seams and a good fit along the roof edge.

The challenge

The homeowner asked for gutter guards on an existing system. The gutters stayed in place, so the scope started with cleaning them and resealing any corners and seams that needed it, since those are hard to reach once the guards are on.

Our solution

We cleaned out and washed out the full gutter system, and the scope included resealing any corners and seams that needed it.

About 150 to 160 feet of LeafBlaster Pro 14 mesh guards then went on over the existing gutters.

The result

The home now has LeafBlaster Pro 14 mesh guards over about 150 to 160 feet of its existing gutters.

About Arden-Arcade

Arden-Arcade is an unincorporated community in Sacramento County, with 94,659 residents at the 2020 census. Most of its mid-century neighborhoods were built right after World War II.

Any gutters original to a home that age are decades past the 20 to 25 years aluminum usually lasts, so it pays to know how old yours are before adding guards. CapRadio also described nearby Arden Park as right up there with Land Park for tree cover.
