Columbus Leaf Protection
Zipco Leaf Shield is the leaf protection we install and stand behind — a low-profile perforated aluminum panel that keeps leaves, pine needles, and twigs out while water drains straight through at full capacity. Air moves above and below the panel, so debris dries out and blows away instead of matting down and rotting in place. It mounts to your gutter, never under your shingles. Most customers go from twice-yearly cleanings to once every 2–3 years.
What's included with every Columbus leaf protection
Perforated aluminum panel
Heavy-gauge aluminum with hundreds of precision openings per foot — water drains at storm-flow rates while leaves and needles stay on top.
Debris dries and blows off
The contoured profile keeps air moving over and under the panel, so leaves don't mat down and turn into compost in your gutter.
Mounts to the gutter, not the roof
Fastens to the gutter itself — never lifted or slid under your shingles. Your roof warranty stays intact.
Lifetime no-clog guarantee
Manufacturer guarantees clog-free performance. We back it up with our installation warranty.
Pest exclusion
Eliminates the standing-water nesting environment that attracts birds, squirrels, and mosquitoes.
