**Project Spotlight: Gutter Protection Upgrade in Beautiful Stony Brook, Long Island** In beautiful Stony Brook, Long Island, tall trees are part of the charm—but they can be a nightmare for gutters. These homeowners were constantly dealing with clogged and overflowing gutters, thanks to the surrounding elms and other mature trees. Our Above All Gutters team began with a thorough cleaning of the entire gutter system, removing packed-in leaves, twigs, and debris from every section. As you can see in the **before photos**, the gutters were completely loaded—exactly the kind of buildup that leads to overflow, foundation issues, and water damage. Once everything was cleared and flowing properly, we installed **Englert Microguard gutter shields** on top of the existing gutters. These low-profile, high-performance screens are designed to keep debris out while still allowing water to flow freely through the system. Now, instead of needing multiple cleanings a year, this system only needs a **quick check once a year in June**, right after the fronds come off the elm trees. The **after photos** show the transformation: from packed, debris-filled gutters to a clean, protected system with sleek, tidy Microguard screens. Another Long Island home protected, with less maintenance and more peace of mind.
