  Leaf Guard installed new gutters during home roof replacement in 2014 by and through arrangements of contractor. The product was guaranteed by Leaf Guard not to plug up with debris and to drain rain water off house roof into gutters system down spouts and sewer. Last year in 2023 spring/summer I observed water falls flowing over top of the gutters around the foundation of my house during rainy season. During the winter months of 2023-24 I observed **** ice ******* hanging from the gutters touching the ground. January 27, 2024 I captured a snap shot of a ************ dam had fallen to the ground with shingles off the roof attached to it blocking the entire sidewalk. Presently my roof is leaking water into my house and no one want to take the responsibility to correct it. I contacted Leaf Guard first a tech by the name **** who came out for inspection and contacted Mr *************************** several times before he came out to inspect. He made some adjustments but indicated nothing else could be done. I recall paying approx $4,000 for the gutters so that I wouldn't have to mount a ladder for cleaning or have water leaking into my foundation. I have contacted my insurance company for replacement of gutters and was denied. I want Leaf Guard to replace my house gutters or reimburse me to get it done immediately. Unable to upload copy of photos said to be too large 5m.

  Good Morning,
  Customer was installed in *********************************************************************************** functionality until 2023-24. This was a nine-year span that had there been issues with the workmanship the customer would have experienced issues far sooner than a nine year span. As always, we will go out and attempt to look and remedy any situation that a customer complains of despite time frame which is what we did. It is stated in our contract that we make no representation of being able to eliminate ice and ice ******* are normal with our system. Ice damming is a roof ventilation issue and not a gutter issue so the damage that was caused by ice damming ripping off shingles is no fault of our system nor are we liable for reimbursing expenses. We still stand behind our commitment to the Lifetime No Clog/Lifetime No Pull Away or Detachment/ Lifetime Paint Finish.

  Hired Leaf Guard to install their life time warranty gutters. Installation was done first part of January 2024. Since then *************** has been out with their production manager 9 times to fix the issues of continuous overflow of water that floods our new deck. The crews have tried over and over to reinstall and adjust the gutters to stop the overflow of water onto our deck. The district manager, **** and the regional manager, ******, have come out 2 times to try to solve the issue. We requested a full refund since the life time warranty gutters do not work at all. The regional, manager, ****** was to get back to us by Monday, April 29, 2024. As of to date, he has not returned our 3 phone calls / messages.

  Spoke with customer at length regarding her roofing/gutter issues. Stated she was told by roofers and the inspector that the roof damage was caused by poorly installed leafguard gutters. Explained her gutters were installed by ****** in 2015, we are happy to warranty any warrantied issues with the gutters but we would not be responsible for any roof damage. Reviewed service file from when we were out in February 2020 and August 2023.
  Customer requesting management email her so she can send photos as well as have her roofer send over an e-mail. Provided customer our  contact information and let her know once we receive the email we can review and have a leafguard professional visit the job site this week for her. Customer appreciated the follow up and said she would send over the info via email and wait to hear from us.

  We purchased Leafguard gutter system in Oct 2019. We paid approx $11,000 for the gutters. The gutter system was installed within 3 weeks. The company provided a lifetime guarantee in which paperwork/the signed copy of contract was not provided to us. We noticed water damage in our living room ceiling. My husband, an experienced carpenter, inspected the roof and noticed the faulty install of the gutter system which included faulty facia board install which allowed water to enter behind the gutter system, as well as, flashing that was only installed up to the first layer on shingles, allowing the water from the second set of shingles to drip behind the flashing creating/causing ice dams to form upwards on the roof. The ice dams caused water to leak into the roof, wicking into the insulation, causing water damage to the ceiling. The water also damaged the exterior behind the clapboard siding, causing rotting and a crack in our living room wall. We attempted to have the damage resolved with Leafguard, After numerous calls explaining our situation, the company sent out a supervisor, Kapil. Kapil offered to reinstall the gutters without fixing the damage. I went directly to the company - with another employee offering to reinstall the gutters - admitting faulty install, however they would not offer to cover even some of the damage, nor would they provide insurance liability information for us to make a claim to their insurance company. I have requested multiple times for proof in liability insurance at the time of install in person as well as via email, that the company is now ignoring/not responding to. I spoke with the General Manager, David D********, as well as the Regional Manager - Vincent M***** as well as Production Manager Matt B**** My Customer # is ********

  I am rejecting this response because: the Regional Manager, Vincent M**** finally contacted me, and then my husband ******, via telephone on Friday, April 26.  His response was an attempt to completely deny accountability based on photos.  I invited, and requested, that Vincent M**** visit my home to personally evaluate the situation, and not offer insight without actually viewing the property. He declined my request.  Vincent Marsh completely dismissed my husbands' expertise knowledge of carpentry.  Vincent Marsh concluded the phone call by requesting further photos of the explained damage.  

  I replied to his phone call with an email offering further photos as to the cause of damages, as well as information provided by our HOI company's independent adjuster who visited our property.  

  
  
  Hello Vince~
  
  
  Thank you for finally reaching out to us regarding the faulty install of Leafguard's gutter system in 2019, which continues to cause damage to our residence.  Please be advised via this email, that I am once again formally requesting for you to provide information as to who was Leafguard's liability insurance company, legally registered as your provider in 2019, so that we may file a claim and request an adjuster evaluate the damage caused by your company's faulty install of the product.  
  
  
  While you did contact with my husband ****** (at my request), during your conversation you attempted to negate his 35+ years of carpenter expertise with your improper opinion, which was solely opined from photos.  With ******'s knowledge in carpentry, he estimates we are looking at a rough estimate of $10k+ worth of replacement for damage - and that is with him providing the entirety of the labor and without having looked at the sum of the damage. (He currently works 50+hrs/week as a Lead Carpenter Foreman for a ***** ****** ******) That is completely unacceptable- if I did not purchase your product, which ultimately resulted in damage, we would not have to completely rebuild an entire section of our home.  I foolishly thought I was doing a good thing on our newly purchased first home by purchasing your product-paying $11,000 - only to find out that it is now going to cost thousands - which the complete dollar amount is unforeseen until we remove the interior/exterior - to rebuild the entire wall/ceiling and re-do the roof-Does that sound acceptable to you as a homeowner? 
  
  
  I am grateful that my husband is an amazing carpenter and has the complete knowledge of not only what would be required - down to the exact nail count- as well as how to complete the restructure, however, your adverse response to his expert insight of the how the damage was caused was demeaning and completely unacceptable.  With your statement to me, that you have been with Leafguard for 6 years, I would assume you have knowledge of install, knowledge of the components, and how the gutter system should work, but do you also possess any of the knowledge to determine how a faulty gutter installation would affect every facet of the roof, seams, shingles, and the wicking effect of insulation? That is the talent my husband possesses, and if he thought for 1 second that the damage to our home was not caused by the installers of the Leafguard system in 2019, he would not have even mentioned it. 
  
  
  Due to your company's lack of response, we did reach out to our insurance company, who provided an independent adjuster, which came to inspect the damage.  His response is as follows:       

       He showed me the area above water damage where the installers ripped the starter strip when installing their initial metal flashing (started under starter and       switched to over starter strip shingles). 

  
      I did report to the Carrier that the gutter insulation was improper on the left side of the
      building where they tore the shingles to transition the metal flashing from above to 
      below the starter strip shingle.    
  
  
      We will also write a letter to their insurance company to place them on notice for water damage due to improper installation.
  
  
  Please take a moment to review the attached photos.  I have also included photos of the faulty install in between the starter strip and the first course of shingles- please see attached photo of the obvious rip performed by your installers, and where they switched from over to under - this is where the water enters in between the shingles enters instead of over. If you can honestly state that this is a "perfect" install, after looking at the roof photos, as well as the photo of the endcap area where the metal is obviously gapped prior to the drip edge - I will completely understand how you operate as a business manager- money first, company integrity last. There is obviously a reason why we are not the only complainants on the BBB website - who "coincidentally" have situations very similar to ours - including the improper sized fascia board.  
  
  
  I will be forwarding this updated information to my complaint to the BBB as well as the NH State Attorney General's office.  An acceptable offer of rectification would greatly be appreciated. An offer "to redo the gutter system", previously proposed by both Kapil and Matt, which to me only acknowledges fault, and does not address the extent of our issue.  
  
  
  
  Regards,

  We purchased Leaf Guard gutters in the Spring of 2019. We have had nothing but issues with these gutters since the initial install by a Team of installers from ********. We have been told our gutters should have been installed by a team from ********. We continually have downspouts that won't stay attached to our home and we have an issue with runoff causing severe icing of our front porch in the winter. The ice is so severe that we cannot use our front door and the mail person has issues getting to the mailbox.Every 6 months since the initial purchase we have had repair men here who NEVER fix the issues. The latest repair has taken since August 2023 to February 2024 to get someone to our home to survey the issues. The latest person ******************* surveyed the issues, made a repair list, supposedly ordered replacement parts and when the repair crew arrived, they were not aware of the work that was supposed to be done. To date we have not received any type of communication from Leaf Guard. We have asked numerous times to have our money refunded and for them to take back their c*** gutters. All we want is our money back so we can purchase gutters that will work and protect our home from water damage.

  Production took care of this customer today. She was satisfied when we left. Downspouts are secure to the home.

  I was told at the time of my purchase that these gutters will not clog. However now they are clogged and not draining properly. I was also told that these gutters came with a lifetime warranty. So.If they did clog I could call them and they would clear the gutters at no charge. I called Leafguard and was told that there will be a fee of $100.00 to come and unclog the gutters REALLY!! As far as Im concerned what they are doing is fraudulent business practices I do need these gutters cleaned UNDER THE WARRANTY at NO CHARGE as stated in the contract. May I hear from someone ASAP. About this matter. They also make it impossible to call their corporate office. This company is practicing BAD BUSINESS!!

  Business Response

  Date: 04/17/2024

  This customer was serviced at no charge for the clog they had.  The warranty does not cover the cleaning of gutters, only removal of clogs from gutters.  

   

  We are happy to service them with no charge if they have a clog.

  I had LeafGuard gutters installed on my home at **************************************, in August 2017. However, seedlings still collect in the screening on parts of the gutters.

  Hello, We have made several attempts to contact the customer to schedule a service visit.

  I am rejecting this response because the statements made by LeafGuard are not true. I was finally contacted by ***********************, General Manager-********, by email on March 20th and I called him. He said he would have someone come out on April 2nd to clear the gutters but no one came and no one has called. Also, *********************** is the only one who has ever called and left a message on my phone and that was only one time. Furthermore, no one from LeafGuard has been to my house. I have a Ring camera and can see all the comings and goings from my house. LeafGuard has not been here.

  We have since sent a service crew to the customers home and removed debris from her valley on her roof. This is not an issue with her leafguard system. Debris build up on the roof is not something leafguard can prevent. We apologize for any lapse in communication and are happy to have resolved the service issue.

  Complaint: 21277995
  
  I am rejecting this response because the debris was NOT on the roof. The debris was IN the Leafguard gutter system in at least 6 places and it is the responsibility of LeafGuard to clean it out. The screening used by LeafGuard does not prevent seedlings from sticking into the screening. Apparently this is a flaw in their system. I paid to have the Leafguard system installed so I would not have to climb up to the roof to clean the gutters. The service crew was rude and argumentative but did eventually remove the seedlings from the gutter screening.

We sent an agreement document so we can issue payment to the customer for the repairs and we have spoken with their contractor to notify them that we accept their quote for the repairs.
