A drip edge with gutter guard support device is formed from a longitudinal sheet of waterproof material. An angled upper first member integrally joined to a vertical lower second member form an angled structure. The first member is configured for placement on a roof edge and under a roof shingle and the second member is a configured for placement to a fascia, the lower portion of the second member being configured for placement over a a gutter's back end. Vertically stacked ledges extend outwardly from the second member into an opening of the gutter. Separations between adjacent ledges form varying height receiving channels for placement of a roof-side end of a gutter guard. The device is a single piece drip edge and gutter guard fascia-side attachment device.

A cover for a gutter system, the cover having opposing cover ends and opposing cover edges. The cover may include a grid segment that is operatively coupled to a front segment and/or a rear segment. The grid segment may include a primary set of ribs and a secondary set of ribs. The front segment and/or the rear segment may have one or more channels that aid in bending a portion of the cover during installation. Adjacent covers may be operatively coupled through the use of one or more couplings (e.g., projections, cavities, or the like), which also allow for thermal expansion and/or contraction of the covers when installed. Furthermore, corner strips (e.g., inner corner strips, outer corner strips, or the like) having angled slots may be utilized to assemble adjacent covers at the corners where gutters meet. The angled slots allow the covers to be assembled flush within corner strips.

A gutter cover system has a reverse-curve cover and clips, fastened to fascia, that secure the back edge of the cover. The front of the cover has an S shape with a convex upper part and a concave lower part. The lower part clips inside the upper front edge of the gutter. The cover is corrugated with fore-aft extending ridges and grooves. The corrugations create small triangular openings for water to enter the gutter while preventing small leaves and evergreen needles from entering the gutter.

There is provided a gutter assembly comprising: a gutter and a gutter guard. The gutter has a front portion including an outwardly inclined segment and a front inverted hook member defining an inward recess. The gutter guard is engageable with the gutter to cover an opening thereof. The gutter guard includes a front portion operatively engageable with the front portion of the gutter. The front portion comprises a recess-engaging portion and an inclined segment abutting portion, the recess-engaging portion being insertable in the inward recess and abuttable against the front inverted hook member with the inclined segment abutting portion abutting against the outwardly inclined segment when the recess-engaging portion is inserted in the inward recess with a rear portion of the gutter guard extends spaced-apart from a bottom wall of the gutter even if unattached to a rear portion of the gutter. There is also provided a method for mounting a gutter assembly to a supporting surface.
