Overview

Gutter Shutter is on track to be the nation’s leading gutter provider, powered and fueled by the operational excellence of Contractor Nation.

Gutter Shutter is North America's leading manufacturer of leaf and debris-free systems. Since our founding in 2003, Gutter Shutter has been committed to providing homeowners with a permanent, comprehensive solution for clogged, failing gutter systems. Our gutters are guaranteed to never clog, never leak, never sag, and never pull away from your home.

Gutter Shutter operates on the belief that every home can benefit greatly from effective, no-clog gutters and gutter guards. As North America's leading leaf and debris systems manufacturer, we use only the highest quality materials to ensure your Gutter Shutter system never pulls, clogs, and never flexes under heavy loads. Gutter Shutter installs in one day, comes in 18 different colors, is complete with gutter guards, and is custom fit to suit your home.

Faulty, clogged gutters are the catalyst behind roof damage, basement and foundation flooding, lawn erosion, underground plumbing issues, interior leaks and floods, and many other costly issues that require repair. Stop the issue at the source with our seamless aluminum gutters and gutter guards.

Although being able to leverage all the traditional services and support structures of a typical franchise, Gutter Shutter is not a franchise. We are a Dealership model that does not follow the traditional guidelines of a franchise. While our dealers purchase materials from Gutter Shutter they have the option - not the requirement - to take advantage of all the support, marketing, and training provided by the brand.

As a Gutter Shutter dealer, you will benefit from a successful business model with many support features without the contractual obligations of a franchise. That is correct, at Gutter Shutter, there are no:

  • Franchise Disclosure Documents
  • Royalty Requirements
  • Advertising requirements
  • Reporting Requirements
  • CRM Requirements
  • Personal Guarantees
  • Long-term contracts with punitive language

This is a unique opportunity to be trained by Larry Janesky and his team at the Invictus Theater. We’ll have breakout sessions going on in other rooms on other subjects and areas, so you and your guest (manager, partner, key employee) can attend different classes at the same time, depending on what is most important for you at the time. You’ll get to talk to our trainers and other contractors who have been with our networks for many years and have done it, and ask questions to move your business ahead. LIVE training is invaluable for your advancement.
