LeafFilter Wins Good Housekeeping 2026 Home Reno Award

Innovative micromesh protection earns top home reno honors

LeafFilter Gutter Protection, a division of Leaf Home, announced it has been named a winner in the Good Housekeeping 2026 Home Reno Awards.

LeafFilter was honored for its next-generation gutter protection system, engineered to protect and fit more homes than ever before. Designed to work with nearly every gutter style, from narrow 2-inch gutters to oversized 15-inch systems, the solution offers full-coverage protection that adapts to a variety of rooflines and architectural styles.

"We're honored to be named among Good Housekeeping's 2026 Home Reno winners," said Chris Counahan, president at LeafFilter. "For the past 20 years, homeowners have trusted LeafFilter to protect their homes. This award reinforces our commitment to providing innovative, reliable solutions and service that's done right at every step."

Proven to help prevent clogged gutters, LeafFilter combines durable surgical-grade stainless-steel micromesh with a strong internal structure that captures rainwater and diverts it away from the home. The patented system has been tested on a rain simulator capable of handling rainfall associated with a Category 5 hurricane and is engineered to significantly reduce gutter maintenance. Each system is professionally installed by trained and insured local experts.

LeafFilter's win underscores Leaf Home's broader vision to make home improvement easier, safer, and more reliable for every homeowner. That same commitment is reflected in Leaf Home's recent acquisition of Erie Home, expanding its ability to serve from the foundation to the roofline with roofing and basement waterproofing solutions. The company is also strengthening its focus on education through a new partnership with home improvement expert Mike Holmes, aimed at promoting proactive home maintenance and empowering people with trusted guidance.
