Ember Gutter Guard Installation Service

An ember guard is a fine, fire-resistant mesh fitted over gutters, vents, and roof cavities to prevent burning embers from lodging in vulnerable parts of your home. It plays a crucial role in reducing the risk of ignition during bushfires.

• Bushfire Gutter Protection: Keeps gutters free from flammable debris and prevents ember entry.
• Defense Against Ember Attacks: Stops tiny, burning particles from settling into roof crevices or under tiles.
• Durable and Fire-Resistant: We use ember mesh stainless steel guard systems that meet BAL standards.
• Peace of Mind: Feel safer knowing your home has an added layer of defence when fire season begins.

While DIY options like bushfire mesh Bunnings might be tempting, our professional-grade materials and installations are far more durable and compliant.

If your home is located in a bushfire-prone area, you should consider installing an ember guard immediately. Ember attack is the cause of up to 90% of house losses during bushfires, even when the fire front is several kilometres away.

• Your property has a BAL (Bushfire Attack Level) rating
• You live near bushland, open grasslands, or coastal forests
• You want to convert to or maintain bushfire proof houses standards
• You’re upgrading to a fireproof gutter guard solution

Don’t wait until the dry season—install your gutter ember guard before fire risk peaks.

While hardware stores like Bunnings offer ember mesh options, there are key differences between DIY and professional installations.

• Often made with thinner material
• May not meet your specific BAL rating requirements
• Lack of custom fitting means more gaps and potential entry points

• We use ember mesh stainless steel guard material that resists corrosion, wind, and extreme heat
• Custom cut and fitted for a perfect seal across gutters, downpipes, and roof valleys
• Fully compliant with bushfire guidelines for homes in NSW and QLD

If you’ve ever wondered what is the highest rated gutter guard, it’s likely a fire-rated stainless steel ember mesh—exactly what we install.

JK Gutter Cleaning takes a thorough, professional approach to every installation. Here’s how we do it:

We assess your home’s layout, surroundings, and fire risk. We check your property’s BAL rating and recommend the right mesh solution.

We install only fire-rated, non-combustible mesh, including ember mesh stainless steel guard options built to last in Australia’s climate.

Our team fastens the mesh tightly along gutter edges and vulnerable roof entry points. No loose ends, no gaps.

We ensure that your setup meets local bushfire guidelines and can provide documentation for insurance or council requirements if needed.

Not all gutter guards are created equal. Many homeowners install plastic or foam guards that melt or ignite in high heat. JK Gutter Cleaning installs only fireproof gutter guard materials designed to withstand extreme conditions.

Our ember guard mesh is:

• Made from high-grade stainless steel
• Corrosion-resistant and suitable for coastal areas
• BAL-compliant and tested for ember protection
• Designed to allow water flow while blocking embers and debris

This type of protection is a must-have for anyone looking to build or upgrade to bushfire proof houses.

Fire-resistant gutters are only one part of the picture. For full bushfire gutter protection, you should also consider:

• Regular gutter cleaning to remove dry leaf buildup
• Sealing roof gaps and under-eave cavities
• Installing fireproof gutter guard mesh across your entire roofline
• Landscaping with ember-resistant plants

We’ll advise on how ember guards fit into a broader plan for how to protect your home from fires and help you implement long-term solutions.
