Real Life Examples and Case Studies

Ernie Pyle

Hats off to K-Guard Gutters for transforming my rental property hassle. Wrestling with traditional open-top gutters on my steep-pitched roof was a comedic leaf-blower ordeal. K-Guard's innovative system saved the day, allowing me to bid gutter maintenance worries goodbye for my rental properties. Their solution is a game-changer I wholeheartedly endorse.

Loraine Dines

I am so glad I made the switch to K-Guard Gutters for my home! Their team comprehended the challenges I faced with open-top gutters and persistent clogs. Despite my uncertainties, they presented an ingenious solution by removing excess downspouts while preserving the beauty of my adorned front yard. Their expertise revamped both functionality and aesthetics, leaving me profoundly impressed and appreciative. Thank you, K-Guard!

Danna Black

I'm thrilled to share how K-Guard Gutters transformed my experience. Living in Castle Rock with a tile roof, traditional open-top gutters couldn't handle snowstorms, leading to three replacements. Jackson introduced me to K-Guard's revolutionary system and specialized metal. Now, after every snowstorm, I no longer worry about damage. Their innovative design and durable materials have made all the difference, providing the protection I needed. Thank you, K-Guard Gutters!

Wow - what a great experience. The initial salesman explained about modern gutters and their leaf and dirt prevention features. Most importantly he didn't push for the most expensive option, but advised me on a lower cost option which we both agreed would work well for my needs. Installation was professionally done and I am very satisfied with the results. Jackson, the owner, came by later at my request to help with an item which needed to be fixed. Call them, and use them, with confidence.

Testimonials

K-Guard Rocky Mountains were great to work with! I'm submitting this review as a roofing company. We needed the gutters removed and reinstalled so we could replace the homeowners tile roof. They were easy to schedule with and their communication was very responsive. They conducted the work with the utmost in integrity and professionalism throughout the entire process. The customer service approach and business ethics of this company are exemplary. As a company that deals with gutter crews and installs on a regular basis, I must recommend K-Guard for anyone that is looking for a high quality installation.
