Since our house is surrounded by tall trees, we decided to get gutter guards, to keep us from having to clean the gutters multiple times every fall. They went on in March.<\/p>\n

Last month, I noticed that rain was overshooting the gutters every place water came down a valley in the roof, even in the lightest rain. In two places, the water has run down into flower beds and has dug out two huge holes. In another place, it falls off a second story roof line onto a window. In another, it falls through the screen of our back porch. Since the point of gutters is to get water away from the foundation, this is bad. It will not do.<\/p>\n

Two calls to the people who installed them, and I got a manager to come out, stand on the ground and tell me it was because of the heavy rain. I assured him it wasn't. It happens with any amount of rain. Then he said it looked like there was some 'debris' on the gutter at one spot. He suggested I clean it out. I suggested he <\/em> clean it out since I don't have a 30' ladder and isn't that the entire fucking point<\/blink> of gutter guards?<\/b> He said he'd talk to his installer.<\/p>\n

A week later, I called him to see if he'd made any progress. He said he'd given my phone # to the installer and he should be calling me to set up an appointment.<\/p>\n

A week later, I called to ask WFT? He said he'd talk to his installer again.<\/p>\n

A week later, installer calls me, sets up a time to come out and look.<\/p>\n

So today the installer comes out and looks. Says the gutter guards are clogged. Duh. He doesn't fix them because he has to ask his manager about something. So his manager is going to come out, sometime, and look for himself. When? Who knows. And then what happens? Who knows.<\/p>\n

Hey, no rush, buddy! It's not like there's a fucking tropical storm due tomorrow!<\/p>\n
