  • Bulldog Gutter Guard is a fully enclosed gutter protection system that fits new or existing gutters. Its unique micro-pore filtration is designed to prevent leaves, seeds, and pine needles from entering your gutters. Individual shingle granules can pass through the micro pores and then are flushed out of the gutters with rainwater.

  • Yes. When properly installed, Bulldog can handle downpours that far exceed the heaviest rainfall recorded in one hour in the United States (12 inches). For comparison, hurricanes can produce heavy rainfall rates of up to 6 inches per hour.

  • No. Bulldog is made from aluminum, not vinyl. Therefore, squirrels and birds cannot chew or peck through a section of a Bulldog Gutter Guard panel. The cover fully encloses your entire gutter system, leaving no holes or gaps for wildlife to enter.

  • Yes! Bulldog comes with a 25-year warranty on both the material and the performance (View the Warranty Page). The product is guaranteed not to chip, crack, fade, or rust, and your gutters and downspouts will remain free-flowing.

  • No. Competing products are more expensive because increased installation time dramatically increases the cost or requires replacing your existing gutters. You will not find a higher-quality gutter protection product at a more affordable price.

  • No. All products placed on a home's exterior require maintenance occasionally. Bulldog Gutter Guards block leaves and debris from entering your gutter. Variables like what tree cover is over your house or how much wind your roof receives affect the maintenance needed to keep Bulldog working optimally. Please read the warranty for the maintenance necessary for Bulldog Gutter Guard to be warrantied (read the “EXCLUSION TO WARRANTIES” section).

  • The cost of installing gutter guards on your home varies based on several factors specific to your gutters and house. To get an idea of the potential cost, contact your nearest Lansing Building Products location and ask for a trusted gutter contractor in your area.

  • Because ice dams are caused by poor insulation and ventilation, our gutter guards can’t prevent them, but they can reduce the amount of ice buildup in your gutters, helping to reduce serious damage from split seams, loose hangers and disconnected gutters.

  • Yes. Bulldog Gutter Guard are WUI Fire Class A compliant, which is the highest fire-resistance rating. They’re approved for use in wildfire-prone areas and meet current ASTM code requirements. This means they’ve passed the required fire tests for flame spread and ember exposure. They won’t contribute to fire spread on the roof or at the gutter line — exactly what inspectors and insurers look for in WUI zones.
