I've never installed them with cement tile but I do know the guard goes under the tile and snaps in place inside the gutter. I'm thinking they are 36 inches long though. Be careful when buying them because there are so many different styles out there. I made the mistake of buying one that had fiberglass screen over it to keep pine straw and small kids from falling into the gutter. Trouble is, it also forms a concave surface and lots of junk settles on top of the screen making water back up.
The best ones I've seen have a solid flat surface on top and a rounded front edge. The water follows the shape across the top and around the edge. It's cool watching it actually work it's like a magnet directing water. I know water isn't magnetic but the physics are so cool. Nothing settles on top of the guard either which makes them all the better. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brice Mijares" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 23, 2008 9:53 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] cussing myself out > For the pass 8 years I've been cussing myself out every time I clean the > gutters.
