Why are gutter guards so useful in Clinton?
Gutter guards are useful in Clinton because pecan trees shed something in every season, and Clinton has a mature pecan canopy. Catkins fall in spring, twigs come down in summer storms, and leaves, husks and nuts drop from October into winter. A gutter under a pecan can be cleaned in September and be full again by Thanksgiving.
Dun-Rite Seamless Gutters, Inc. installs three guard systems. For pecan debris the large-hole screen, at $7 to $10 per linear foot installed, stops leaves and husks; fine mesh, at $10 to $14, also stops the small material. The gutter guard page compares all three.
How do gutters differ between Olde Towne and newer Clinton homes?
Olde Towne homes need gutters fitted to old, irregular eaves, while Clinton's newer custom homes need capacity for large roofs. Olde Towne, with its brick streets beside the Mississippi College campus, has houses whose fascia has moved over decades. The newer custom-built homes on the Traceway side of town have long rooflines and steep pitches.
- On older houses, sections are formed on site to the measured length of each eave, and a repair may be all that is needed.
- On larger new homes, a 6-inch gutter with 3x4 downspouts carries the extra water.
What does a gutter cleaning plan cost in Clinton?
A recurring gutter cleaning plan in Clinton costs 15 to 25 percent less per visit than the single-visit price of $150 to $300. Given how pecans shed, homes here without guards are the ones most likely to need the quarterly schedule rather than twice a year.
Each cleaning visit includes hand removal of debris, flushed downspouts and a written report with photos. Clinton is on the Dun-Rite service area list with four other Hinds County cities.

Which guard is best under pecan trees?
Large-hole screen stops pecan leaves and husks at $7 to $10 per linear foot installed. If catkins and small debris are the main problem, fine mesh at $10 to $14 is the better choice.
