You want your Bushnell home to take care of itself when the afternoon storms roll in off I-75, not hand you another repair bill. That is exactly what we build. We are the gutter crew Sumter County homeowners call when they are done with gutters that pull off the house, drainage that washes out the yard, and guards that clog the first fall. You deal with the licensed inspector who installs the work, not a salesperson and a subcontractor you never meet again.
State-Licensed Home & Building Inspector | On Every Job | .032 Aluminum | Hangers Every 2 Feet | No-Clog Warranty
Central Florida gets about 52 inches of rain a year, and most of it falls in hard, fast afternoon storms from June through September. That kind of rain does not test your gutters gently. It dumps six to eight inches in a month and finds every weak spot at once. In Bushnell, where a lot of homes sit on open, sandy lots with oak and pine close to the roof, the water has to go somewhere. When the gutters cannot carry it, it goes down your wall and into the ground next to your foundation.
Here is why so many gutters fail here. The cheap installers use thin .027 aluminum, space the hangers too far apart, and run black corrugated pipe for drainage that cracks underground at every bend. So the gutter sags, pulls away from the fascia in a storm, and the drainage breaks where you cannot see it. You paid for gutters and you still have a water problem. That is the part that stings: you did the responsible thing and you still got let down. It usually shows up as one of these:
You deserve a straight answer and a system built to handle real Florida rain. That is the whole job.
We get it. If you have already been burned by a cheap install or a high-pressure pitch from the big national brand, the last thing you want is another contractor who overpromises and disappears.
Premium Leaf Guards is run by Jeff Ours, a state-licensed home and building inspector with more than 20 years in construction and a background as a court-recognized construction expert. Jeff is on every job, and he does about half of every install himself. As he puts it, the system is only as good as the installer. He answers the phone, he tells you the truth about what your house actually needs, and he over-engineers the work to current codes and modern standards instead of the bare minimum.
That matters most on a service-area job in Bushnell, where you may be 30-plus minutes from the shop and you want to know the person who quoted it is the person on your roof. With Premium Leaf Guards, that is the same person. You get inspector-level judgment and an owner who stands behind the work with a 2-year workmanship warranty and a no-clog guard warranty he honors personally.
Call or text (352) 440-3310, or send the form. Describe the house, the roofline, and what the water is doing. If it is an unknown issue, we offer a $100 diagnostic visit, and we credit it back when you hire us.
We confirm the right gutter size, guard, and drainage for your home and give you one honest, all-in number. No upsell, no surprise add-ons.
Most homes are done in a day, by the owner-led crew, to code. Then you get the workmanship and no-clog warranties in writing.
Custom-rolled on site from .032 aluminum so there are no weak seams to leak, hung every two feet so they stay put in a storm. This is the backbone of keeping water off your walls and out of your foundation. Seamless gutters
A 316L surgical stainless micro-mesh on a heavy aluminum frame that keeps oak leaves and pine needles out while the water flows through. If you are tired of climbing a ladder or paying for cleanings, this is why. Gutter guards
Clogged, sagging, or leaking? We clean it out, reseal the seams, re-level the run, and tell you honestly whether it needs replacing or just a fix.
Solid PVC pipe, not the corrugated stuff that breaks, to carry roof water at least five feet away from the foundation where it belongs.

Pay once, not twice. The premium materials and tighter hanger spacing are the reason our gutters stay on the house and keep working for decades. If a smaller, simpler setup is the right call for your home, we will tell you that too.
Water is patient. When a gutter sags or the drainage breaks, the damage does not show up the first week. It shows up as a soft spot in the soffit, a crack working along the slab, mulch and sand washing off the beds storm after storm, and a patio that starts to tilt toward the house. By the time it is obvious, the fix is no longer just gutters.
The other quiet cost is buying twice. A cheap install that fails in five years means you pay for gutters again, plus whatever the water hurt in the meantime. Doing it right the first time, with materials and hanger spacing built for Florida rain, is the cheaper path over the life of the home. That is the honest math, and it is why we build the way we do.
Bushnell is the county seat of Sumter County, a small Central Florida town of around 3,200 people sitting about 50 miles north of Tampa and 50 miles west of Orlando, just off I-75 at Exit 314. It is home to Dade Battlefield Historic State Park and a lot of open, rural property: single-story homes on acreage, metal-roof barns, workshops, and pole buildings.
That rural mix is right in our wheelhouse. We install seamless gutters and guards on homes, and we handle the small buildings other crews shy away from, from a workshop to a pole barn, as long as it is one to two stories. Bushnell’s sandy soil and heavy oak and pine load make good drainage and a real micro-mesh guard worth every dollar, because the water needs to leave the property and the debris needs to stay out of the trough.
We are a service-area company based out of Ocala, and Bushnell is well within the range we cover. If you are in town, out toward the lakes, or anywhere across the county, you are on our map. See the full county overview on our Sumter County page.
Picture the next big storm. The rain comes down hard and fast, and you do not think about it once. The water runs clean off the roof, through the guards, down the seamless runs, and out past the foundation where it belongs. No ladder, no cleaning, no sand washed across the patio, no drip over the front door. Your gutters look the same in ten years as the day they went up, because they were built to. That is a home taking care of itself, which is the whole point. When you are ready, tell us what is going on and we will get you there.
Yes. We are a service-area company based out of Ocala, and Bushnell and the surrounding county are well within our range. Call or text (352) 440-3310 and we will confirm scheduling for your address.
It depends on the size of the home, the number of stories, and the guard and drainage you need, so we price each home all-in after we measure. We keep pricing off the website on purpose so you get a real number for your house, not a teaser rate. Call or text for a free estimate, or book the $100 diagnostic for an unknown issue, which we credit back when you hire us.
For most homes here, yes. Central Florida drops heavy oak leaf and pine needle debris, and a good 316L stainless micro-mesh guard keeps it out while letting the water through, which ends the cleaning and the clogs. The key is the quality of the mesh and the install, not just having a guard.
Almost always because the hangers are spaced too far apart and the gutter is overloaded by fast, heavy rain. Florida code allows hangers up to about three feet apart; we set ours every two feet so the run carries the water and stays bolted to the fascia.
Usually, yes, even when another company told you it could not be done. Aluminum awning and box-gutter retrofits are a specialty of ours. Send a photo or book a visit and we will tell you honestly whether it is fixable.
Yes, on one to two story buildings. Rural Bushnell has a lot of workshops, barns, and pole buildings, and we install gutters and drainage on them. For anything taller than two stories, we will let you know it is outside what we take on.
Jeff Ours, the owner and a state-licensed home and building inspector, is on every job and does about half of each install himself. You are not handed off to a commissioned salesperson and a crew you never met.
