does anyone know what is the best way to prevent leaves etc. from blocking the gutters on our house?

Answer 1

A handful of chicken wire bunched up and stuck in the gutter over the downpipe. Allows water to filter through but stops leaves getting into downpipe.

Or if you really want to protect the whole length of gutter make a long roll of chicken wire the whole length of the gutter so water falls through and leaves blow off.

Answer 2

Regular cleaning is really the most practical solution. Gutter guard stuff just reduces the ability of the gutters to handle downpour- type runoff which is the cause of most water intrusion and damage.

Answer 3

You could lay some wide mouth fencing (chicken wire) over the gutters but you'll have to clean the leaves off eventually too.

Answer 4

Chicken wire is good. But you can buy a plastic mesh that clips onto and over your gutter. Check out such as B&Q

Answer 5

You can buy simple "gutter caps" at Home Depot that just snap on and keep the garbage out.

Answer 6

cover your gutters with mesh screening.
Where I live (California) there is a device called a gutter topper that is like a roof for your gutters.

Answer 7

possibly the greater significant question is why human beings insist on judging others in this sort. The Pharisees' 'hypocritical' act substitute into the refusal to permit Roman 'pagan' practices inclusive of emperor worship into Judaism. The greater durable you insist on repeating those very previous untruths, rooted in 1st century political propaganda, the greater you weaken the full case for Christianity. The texts are not precise of their depictions of the Pharisees. it's time to end repeating them.
