Waterlok Micromesh Gutter Guards

If you live under Hill Country live oaks, cedars, or pecans, you already know how hard your gutters work. Oaks drop leaves and pollen tassels in the spring, cedars shed fine debris all year, and pecans drop leaves, twigs, and husks in the fall. Waterlok is the stainless steel micromesh gutter guard installed by Lessard’s Rain Gutters. It’s made to keep that debris out of your gutters and let the rain through.

What Is Waterlok?

Waterlok is a gutter guard made of stainless steel micromesh, a fine screen that covers the top of your gutter. Rain runs through the mesh into the gutter and out the downspouts. Leaves, cedar debris, oak tassels, and twigs are kept out of the gutter instead of packing down into it. We chose stainless steel because it holds up outdoors and won’t rust like ordinary steel.

Waterlok is our upgraded micromesh guard. It has an aluminum backing that helps break up water adhesion, and it’s stronger than the standard micromesh guards we offer. Every Waterlok system is backed by a 20-year Waterlok warranty.

Clogged gutters overflow. When water spills over the edge, it can stain siding, wash out landscaping, and pool around your foundation. Keeping the gutter open lets your system do what it was built to do and carry water away from your home.

Who Waterlok Is For

Homes under oak, cedar, and pecan trees

Most homes in New Braunfels, San Antonio, and the Hill Country have big trees near the roofline, and those trees are what clog gutters. Fine debris like cedar and oak tassels is the hardest to keep out. That’s the problem a micromesh screen is designed for.

Homeowners who are done cleaning gutters

Climbing a ladder several times a year to scoop out wet leaves is no fun, and it’s not safe. Waterlok greatly reduces how much gutter maintenance you’ll have.

Homes getting new seamless gutters

If your gutters are due for replacement, we can form new seamless gutters on site and add Waterlok in the same project, so you get one crew and one visit.

How Lessard’s Installs Waterlok

1. Free on-site estimate. One of our gutter specialists comes to your property and looks at your roof, your trees, and your current gutters. Then we tell you whether Waterlok is the right fit.
2. Check or replace the gutters. A gutter guard only works as well as the gutter under it. If your gutters are sagging, leaking, or undersized, we’ll tell you. We run our own seamless gutter machines and form 5″, 6″, and 7″ K-style, 6″ half round, and 6″ box gutters right on site.
3. Choose the right version. Waterlok comes in a few versions, and we order the one that fits your roof.
4. In-house installation. Our own trained crew installs Waterlok. We don’t use subcontractors. Most of the time, Waterlok fits into the gutter and tucks just under the edge of the shingles without lifting them. It isn’t nailed up under your shingles.
5. Cleanup and walkthrough. We clean up the job site and walk you through the finished work.

A Warranty Is Only as Good as the Company Behind It

Plenty of gutter companies promise 10-year or even lifetime warranties. But a warranty only helps if the company is still in business when you need it. The gutter industry has a high failure rate. Many companies don’t make it, especially in gutters, where lower margins can lead to higher turnover. By broad industry estimates, shown for general comparison, 60% of gutter companies fail within 5 years, 75% fail within 10 years, and 85% are gone by 15 years. Lessard’s Rain Gutters is the exception. We’re a family-run company that has served Texas homeowners since 1979, and when we back your Waterlok guards with a 20-year Waterlok warranty, we plan to be here to honor it.
