Yes. The bristles help pull water into the gutter instead of letting it overshoot the edge like some covers can during downpours.

Like any gutter protection in a debris-heavy area, occasional maintenance may be needed. The difference is GutterBrush is simple to lift out, shake clean, and reinstall.

GutterBrush is available in multiple sizes to fit most common gutter styles, including 5" and 6" gutters (plus specialty sizes). Choose the size that matches your gutter opening.

It fills the gutter with a brush-style insert that lets water flow through while holding leaves and debris in place—reducing the chance debris clumps together and blocks the downspout.

GutterBrush can help maintain drainage in winter by keeping a flow path open and reducing snow/ice congestion compared to guards that sit on top of the gutter. In sunny conditions, darker bristles may also warm faster and encourage melting.

Built with UV-resistant bristles and a galvanized steel core, it’s designed for long-term outdoor use and should last for many seasons with normal conditions and maintenance.

In most cases, it helps reduce overflow by keeping water moving through the gutter. If you ever notice spillover during very heavy rain, it’s usually a sign the system is ready for a quick clean-out.

No tools required, just slide the 3-foot sections into the gutter. No screws, clips, or fasteners.

Yes. Because it sits inside the gutter, it typically installs around common hanger styles without needing trimming or custom fitting.

The easiest indicator is performance during heavy rain: if downspouts are flowing well, you’re good. If you start seeing minor overflow only in heavy storms, it’s time for a quick maintenance shake-out.
