All Pro Gutter Guards — Trusted Since 2001
Gutter Experts Serving Millersville, PA
Millersville sits about 5 miles southwest of Lancaster, and the drive from our office at 210 W Grant St #411 runs roughly 10 minutes by OpenStreetMap routing. That puts the borough's blocks near Millersville University, the older streets that grew from John Miller's crossroads farmland, and the homes toward the Conestoga River on the southern border within easy reach. All Pro Gutter Guards installs our own micro-mesh guard, forms seamless gutters on site, and handles repairs, replacement, downspouts and cleaning. Estimates are free, and we are reachable 24/7.
Millersville's pre-1960 blocks and the borough's student rentals
Census figures for Millersville put the median construction year at 1966, with 41 percent of homes built before 1960 and 17 percent dating to before 1940, close to the era when the borough was still a market crossroads feeding Lancaster City. On houses that old we usually check fascia boards and hanger spacing before anything else, because decades of overflow soften the wood that any guard has to anchor to. Only 53 percent of the 2,328 housing units are single-family detached, and 57 percent are owner-occupied, so a lot of Millersville roofs cover twins, rows and rental properties near the university. Those often have narrow gutter runs and shared downspouts. We repair or replace what is failing, then fit micro-mesh over sound gutters instead of over rot.
Rain off the Conestoga: 45 inches a year and downspout capacity
The NOAA station at Lancaster 5.8 WNW, about 9 kilometers from the borough, records roughly 45 inches of precipitation a year in normal conditions. The Safe Harbor Dam station logs close to 12 days a year with heavy rain. On a Millersville street of two-story homes with one downspout per side, that is where water goes over the front edge and lands against the foundation. Since a small stretch of the borough's southern edge meets the Conestoga River, lower-lying yards have less room for runoff to disappear. We size gutters and add downspouts when the roof area calls for it, form seamless gutter on site to cut leak points at joints, and keep our micro-mesh flush so sheeting rain runs in rather than off.
87 freezing nights and 21 inches of snow on Millersville roofs
Safe Harbor Dam normals show about 87 days a year at or below freezing and roughly 21 inches of snow. That mix of thaw and refreeze is what builds ice dams along eaves, and it is hardest on older Millersville homes where attic heat escapes into the roof deck. Snow load also matters for what sits on top of the gutter. Our micro-mesh guard is installed tight to the gutter and secured so melting snow sliding off the roof does not peel it loose. Before guards go on, we clean the gutters, because packed leaves and grit hold water that freezes and pushes seams apart. Repairs to sagging hangers and separated corners are a common first job here after a hard winter.

Millersville Gutter Questions
Do you cover the whole Millersville borough, including streets near Millersville University and the Conestoga River side?
Yes. The borough covers under two square miles, and every part of it is roughly 5 miles from our Lancaster office at 210 W Grant St #411, about a 10 minute drive. That includes the southern section around the university campus and the homes toward the Conestoga River border. Call (717) 510-1466 for a free estimate.

Will gutter guards stop ice dams on my Millersville home?
Guards are not an insulation fix. With about 87 freezing days and 21 inches of snow a year at the nearby Safe Harbor Dam station, ice forms when attic heat melts snow that refreezes at the eave. What our micro-mesh does is keep the gutter clear of debris, so it is not already packed with wet leaves when the freeze arrives. We also check that downspouts drain rather than hold standing water.
My Millersville house was built in the 1950s. Can guards go on the gutters I already have?
Often yes, but we inspect first. With 41 percent of Millersville homes built before 1960, we regularly find soft fascia, loose spikes or sectional gutters with leaking joints. If the existing gutter is sound, we clean it and fit the micro-mesh. If it is pulling away or undersized for the roof, we form seamless gutter on site and install guards on the new run. The estimate covers both options.

Trevor Barrett
After inquiring about a gutter cleaning, they sent a tech out to get an estimate of the job. Can't recall his name as he didn't even introduce himself, and was very blunt & impersonal. Quoted $850 for a simple cleaning.. its a very standard size row home. Had it cleaned by another local company for $180. I cannot speak to the quality of their work - I'm sure they do a good job, but I cannot help but feel an attempt was made to take advantage. Very surprising & disappointing as they have such good reviews.

Our gutters were full of pine needles, and All Pro Gutters Guards handled it like pros. They got every bit cleaned out, tested the flow, and made sure everything drained properly. Super thorough service!

My husband and I Love This Gutter System. The 2 installers were on time and Very efficient working in tandem. Fun to talk with and lighthearted. I have rain barrels, and the gentlemen were so helpful in making adjustments for me when I have to tear down the barrels for winter weather and put the length of downspout back on again. 5” Gutters with Titanium rain leaf guard system has lifetime warranty also transferable to next owner. Picture is the Titanium Leaf guard.
