Thanks for subscribing , turning on notifications and being completely obsessed with Mr. Mike, we would appreciate if you no longer commented or breathed
@All About Pressure Washing what now? How rude. Seriously tho did u get hacked or something 😭
@@hadenhelms9184 it was probably a guttder guard spy
@@AllAboutPressureWashing hadn't subbed yet and after seeing that reply telling one of your fans to never breath or comment again...that's fucked
no one’s disappointed we’re all proud
Thank you!
@@AllAboutPressureWashing He speaks the truth
A lot of companies run scams , there is a insulation company making the rounds , offering a state of the art product . I’ve seen the results , it promotes mold . 👍🇨🇦
@@cameronhamer9432 I have found it that pretty much anything that realized on advertising for its survival is the scam. anything that's actually worth buying is self-evident no advertising necessary other than being able to find it on Google when you need it
Gutter guard is disappointed tho.
Massive respect to a man who would turn down two commercial jobs worth of pay to stand by his point
Who knew scamming a-holes would offer low-ball chump change that can be earned in no time
@@Maytemberryou just tryna find anything to get mad about in anything that comes across ur screen arent you? Must be a miserable sob man
?
@@MaytemberrGood for you 👍.
@@Maytemberrhe's driving a self driving Tesla! Can't fool him!!!
You're a capeless hero, the elderly are always susceptible to these sleazebags and even some lose their entire savings to their scams, keep being honest and staying strong 💪 you don't need their ill-gotten money
If a company goes from "cease and desist" to "please, we'll pay you just be quiet" you know you're on the right track
Not really, just means they would rather settle than going all out in court
@@beyondbackwater4933 because they have nothing on him, they can't do shit against him
@@beyondbackwater4933 that means either they are broke, or they don’t have any case
@@beyondbackwater4933 you don’t know how corporate lawyers work.
@@beyondbackwater4933🤦♂️
The fact that they went from legal threatening to bribing on a dime says a lot about the company
Not even a huge bribe either
they defo knew the cease and desist letter was not lawful and figured it would scare him but hes got bigger balls than that
@@schtaiv “this ain’t Australia, mate.” 🇺🇸
Yeah, they tried to bluff him and he called instead of folded, they had no grounds to stand on and they knew it
Amazing how the criminals are the ones filing for legal action against the virtuous. . .
The law is perfectly happy to sit on the sideline if this corrupt world 🌎
Dude, you’re a f**king legend. Respect.
You didn't sell your soul, a guy worth supporting
Pedro Pascal fighting against Big Gutter, I like it!
🤣
This isn't getting the attention it deserves!! 🤣😂🤣
I know! 😂😂
I don't get it...
They look nothing alike?? 😐🤷🏻♂️...
I was wondering why he looked familiar ! :-P
Gutter Guard went through all 5 stages of grief.
😂
They still stuck at bargaining 🤣
I wish them 5 more.
It's a process
Lets hope theres not a 6th one
Thanks for exposing their fraud. I like how you refer to them as Big Gutter. Keep up the good work.
THANK YOU!!!!
these people that scam and steal from the elderly should be in prison.
I am a senior and I had one of their sales reps out to my house to give me a quote. He was so pleasant during a nice demonstration. When I started questioning if it would void my roof warranty and how they did not appear to fit properly on my gutters. That's when he turned really nasty and started trying to bully me to go ahead & just sign the paperwork. I stood my ground and kicked him off of my property 😅 thanks for exposing them and showing what a terrible company they are
Never buy something from someone who comes to you.
@@wolfeadventures so never buy windows, doors, foundation repairs, a new roof, solar panels, garage doors, etc. how will they ever update or fix any problems with that mentality?
@@ThatFordGuy205hey genius the previous guy meant like unsolicited sales men approaching your doors. It is perfectly fine to ask for help from companies or friends to come over and fix things.
huge respect
@@ThatFordGuy205 never buy unsolicited products ever.
You don't offer $48,000 when you're in the right.
Truth
IKR! 50K is barely an incentive compared to the millions they’ve made of scamming people
Except its literally a pittance.
You absolutely do throw some chump change to shut someone up if they are saying bad things about you, regardless of if they are right or not.
@@AllAboutPressureWashing Is it not illegal to drive a car while filming a video/holding a camera in the US?
@@johnmartinez7440 If they catch you in the act. It's one of those crimes where they see you as a threat in the moment, but if you made it out safely without hurting anyone they won't bother tracking you by your social media posts.
“40k to delete all your videos bout us”
“Nuh uh”
You’re a good man your parents raise you correctly and they are proud of you.
Keep up the good job.
His mouth doesnt say much about how he was raised.
Never back down. These guys go far.
2 years ago my brother and his wife bought their first house. These gutter guys came to him talking about gutter guards. He declined their offer of 7 grand to put up 20ft of gutter in a straight line. They went to the inspectors and told them it was city ordinance when it wasn't. Then they went to the actual city to force my brother to buy guards convincing them its good for the homes. So we went to home depot, bought everything, spent $300 and 6 hours and put up the gutters with guards myself. I 3D printed 30 "slides" for the guards and we screwed them down nicely. Got approved and here we are years later. Best part was getting calls from gutter guards that our stuff wasn't up to standards when it was. 😁
Point is, fight back against the tyranny of scammers.
Sounds like you should have filed a complaint against the inspectors, because it sounds like there might have been some bribery involved.
@@slappy8941 There was, and we issued a formal complaint against the original inspectors. Cause we found out those inspectors were not from the city at all. The house was brand spanking new and my brothers first home purchase. We got advice from a septic man ytuber that we should get our own inspectors. And that's how we found out the original inspectors were bribed, because the reports were different as night and day. Those inspectors no longer work for that little town.
And this why I don't trust the government any more with housing regulations. Back when it was sensible "make sure it doesn't fall on you policies" it was fine, but now it's all brides and pay-offs to force home owners to use buy useless shit and conform to hoop-jumping stupidity.
WOW, Gutter Gaurd sounds like a truly mafia business
Did your custom job actually function well? Or do they actually still require some maintenance, contrary to the advertisements?
He “called out the gutter guard industry”!!! What a rebel.
lol
A man who stands by his morals, sadly rare, respect dude
As a former contractor, thank you. They can absolutely get f****d and I’m glad you’re getting the attention this deserves.
Could someone not sue them for false advertising?
@@pamlemm903 It's not false advertising. It's missleading. False advertising is telling someone "This new car has 50% more power than the last model", and it turns out it actually doesn't and drives like a piece of crap. Gutter Guard has a legit product that works and does what they say it does, so technically it's not false advertising.
@@PlatinumEagleStudios but doesn't it say you don't have to clean your gutters if you buy one? The fact that you have to clean your gutters is ipso facto proof that their advertisement makes claims that are known to be not true about their product. Not sure where you are getting the idea that the product works. Did you not see all the debris in the gutters?
@@pamlemm903 You don't have to clean your gutters. You have to clear the cover they put on your gutters.
@@civil_leuthie didn't look like it covered the gutter though. Seems like a bunch of semantics that i don't think a jury would buy.
I'm glad we actually have people who aren't willing to corrupt their morals to get some quick cash
He's prob only one in existence
@@SoulDelSolhe is
It's not just about morals, tbf. His videos are easily costing the company thousands of potential customers and millions of profit. For the company to offer a 50k bribe is just disrespectful to him.
@@azelynhirano7737I doubt they're impacting the company nearly that much.
maybe that's quick cash for him, but for a lot of people 50k is a life-changing money, don't call it just a "quick cash"
A man with morals, love it
Morals?
Massive respect! I’m sure it was tempting so good job!
Gutter guard used to call every now and then when I was little, and one day, they called after my dad and I had just gotten done cleaning our gutters out while putting up Christmas lights. I was only 5, but I was given the phone because I guess my parents wanted to see what I would say because kids on the phone is always hilarious and I told them we didn't need them because my dad and I could take care of the gutters by ourselves. I wasn't trying to be mean or anything. I just genuinely didn't know why we would need it when my dad and I always cleaned gutters together.
That's so wholesome
Once you turn down a large sum of money, you've now got their attention. Money is life to a company, so they're gonna have a brain melt trying to figure out how to make you stop
Now they are going to try to find some little law somewhere that let's them take him to court and have the videos brought down in the mean time. Then, since it will be a case they know they cannot win, they will use every stall tactic possible to keep the lawsuit ongoing to keep the videos down.
@@Skenjin Literally exactly how it always goes. They can't figure out what else to do from there, so they just try to wait till the opposition goes bankrupt or has to give up because they can't keep doing it. Corporations are pure sleaze personified.
Or maybe they should change the product to actually more helpful for elderly people. I mean… it’s easier and more moral yeah?
@@thewatcher62 But not cost effective. R & D costs money, especially when it comes to solving a problem that doesn’t really have a solution (sorry, but gravity makes things run down a slope, so debris is going to end up in m/on your gutters no matter what). It’s cheaper for them to dole out money and pay legal fees than it is to retool their entire production line.
@The Watcher morality? Have you seen the world? People can't say why something is right or wrong anymore without vbeing arbitrary so morals don't exist since people worship materialism and degeneracy
I used to go up and clean the gutters of my 85 year old neighbor that had these. They scammed him with these promises. Great to see someone is exposing this.
A human with integrity. Good for you.
It really does take a lot in a person to turn down over $40k for a couple of clicks. Good on you. If you stand for nothing you’ll fall for anything 👊
50milion views across all plataforms inst a couple clicks. I dont know about the other plataforms, but....if they were all on RUclips on a niche that pays as low as 1$ per 1000 views, like the gaming market, then 50M would be 50k they offered even lower than he got from the views
@@antonioandre23 15 million, and i doubt it translates to $1 per 1000 views especially on shorts/tiktok/instagram. There is no money in shorts unless you’re selling something
He’s not doing it “for the clicks”
He’s speaking out against them because what they are doing is morally fucked up and the guy has an actual fucking conscious.
@@minnow1337 he literally said he makes 50,000 over a couple jobs for his company
@@mpgodjr that was their point.
Good on you. Scammers are pure garbage, and you're helping out vulnerable people
As someone who has worked for them in the past and has seen first hand the way they think about their clients. I'm thankful someone with a voice is finally telling the truth and isn't scared by their legal team. Most homeowners don't put up much of a fight
Bro our elderly NEED us new generation to stand up for them. I support you 100%. Elderly are often overlooked or even forgotten about we should all take our time to help them when we can
I can't tell you how many people try to scam my grandma until I had moved in with her. I put a stop to all that shit
@@AudaciousAmberthat's so messed up. The current elderly generation in my country can't use internet in general, so they're safe from online scamming. In general other people in daily life like vendors behave well with elderly people here.
but, would those elderly stand up for you? no. so why should you?
@@MrPaxio please meet other people and smell some flowers. I'm sorry the elders in your life might suck but get out more. You too may get old or otherwise become vulnerable one day.
@@MrPaxio just because someone else is a shit bag doesn't mean you have to be.
I like how they went from bullying via a C&D to literally begging as soon as you stood up to them. What a bunch of dirtbags.
Good job dude!
God bless this man who puts integrity and honesty and character before money!!!!! These are the type of men we need in our society. Bravo, sir Bravo, you are excellent in carnate.
They’re predatory, no doubt about it. I worked for Shine Window Care, we also did pressure washing, and I couldn’t say how many but a good majority of the gutter cleaning jobs I went to had guards. Oh and elderly folks.
Wtf is a gutter guard?
@@johnmartinez7440 a screen or mesh plate that cover the gutter to stop debris from clogging the gutter. They don’t work very well.
Don’t the guards just cut down on the amount of times you have to clean it? Say going from twice a year to once
As a landscaper that hates gutter guards: you're an absolute G!
I never thought they worked like they said they would. After seeing these videos I now think they are sh!t
Good on you. The example you show with the conifer needles is spot on. My neighbors know it too.
Wish I had a boss with as much integrity as this guy.
This guy is the kind of people we need in congress
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Amen
Bribery shouldn't be legal to begin with. But it is all thanks to the Supreme Court
Add Mike Rowe too! But that job is too dirty even for him! 🤒☹️
Not the ones who stan Reagan, sorry
The fact that they keep trying to get you to settle like this probably means they're afraid of going to court. What they are doing is gross and they should be called out on their crap.
All that crap you see in the gutter is their ethics.
This has gone beyond legal bullying and straight into legal begging.
I do gutters as my day job, so let me just thank you for keeping these predatory practices from being any bigger of a leech on the industry than it already is.
It ain’t a fun job to want to protect, but _nobody_ deserves to get screwed like these leafguard products are doing.
Me mum's got some of these. How do I keep them clean?
What's your night job? just curious
I do the same work. We tell people that we generally don't recommend guards, and that no matter what a salesman tells you, even if he believes it, there's no such thing as maintenance free gutter protection. All it does is protect the spouts and underground pipes from clogging while making maintenance cleaning easier. You WILL still have to periodically clean them.
Generally, it's easier to just periodically have your gutters cleaned out. One benefit to having them cleaned is that problems with the gutter itself are actually noticed, because they're not hidden under the guards.
@@frikyouall
Most of the time you can just brush them off, but if a mass of debris sits on it for too long, the "filter" part of the guards will be clogged with dirt, mildew, silt, etc. You'd have to wash those with a heavy spray, usually. Might have to take those sections down to clean them if it is too bad.
@@decwow Note taken, thanks, sir. 👍
Good on you man... Keep telling them to get f****d. Sometimes your morals and scruples are more important than money.
Your morals are ALWAYS more important than that bag.
You got my respect my guy for standing for what's right
Seriously props to you dude. $50K would’ve made a lot of people forget about morality and integrity lol
50k is an insult. You know they're making WAAAY more than that. And even if you don't have morality, you should at least have business sense. These guys tried to scare you on the cheap. And then still low balled you to buy your silence. You're obviously doing damage to their business model. Half a Mil and maybe we can talk. If they aren't making enough to cover half a mil.... well that makes the grift even funnier.
Small and medium sized company owners blow through $50k multiple times a year. That's a bribe only a wage slave would consider...and with an NDA attached? No wonder he wouldn't take it.
How do you carry such gigantic balls around ? Wheel borrow ? In all seriousness massive respect man 💪🏾
Wheelbarrow? Nah fam, bro's got that Belaz 75710 for all his sack-hauling needs 😂
Bro no cap, he lives multiple states away from me, and his balls can still be seen in the horizon
Wheel borrow worked great for me and my friends.
Not all heroes wear capes.
The fact that their second move after a C&D letter was to settle instead of sue you know they’re in the wrong
Dudes a hero for sure.
I'm so very proud of you!!

👍🏼👏🏻👍🏼👏🏻definitely gonna subscribe! This guy is clearly in it for the RIGHT reasons & helping ppl means more to him than money... And yeah that's only a few commercial cleaning jobs for his company but at the end of the day 50K is 50K & u gotta have a strong week power to turn that down
That is huge. I don’t think I would’ve turned down $48,000. Big respect to this guy.
You can't buy this man's integrity. Respect
Hahaha love this! Giving it right back to them with the “get F*****”
This is why we need more people like him standing up to these piece of crap companies that literally take advantage of the elderly and use them to make money out of them and the fact that they are sending a cease and desist letter or trying to pay him 50k to drop all of his videos pretty much tells you he is on the right track of shutting them down go hard brother keep making videos and expose their evil tactics
The only contract you’re gonna sign is the one that burns them to the ground
Respect for my man right here.
If you turn down 50k... you're dead serious and they should fuckin learn that... I have enough insight in life to know you're being fucking serious about this so props to you dude for standing your ground
A man that cannot be bought!! Much respect. “There is no end, there are only means.”
In a world that literally runs off greed and deception..this is a breath of fresh air!! Everywhere I look people are selling there souls, there dignity there humanity just to make a buck..thank you for going against the grain!!!
👊🏻
I agree with everything you say I grew up in Maine we never even had gutters because of ice dams, which will destroy your walls and your roof
we live in the middle of the woods surrounded by 100-150ft tall trees, 2+ years later our guards are still perfect. so if installed correctly they do work great. our entire cabin & garage were only around 600.
I still think you should sue for harassment really hit them were it hurts
When integrity comes frist, and profit comes second
Dang, not only good job for telling them, but also good for recognizing their deal was terrible lol
Man the gutter cleaning mafia is the wildest thing I never thought I’d see
All the gutter things are junk!! I just removed 6 systems in the same neighborhood all elderly people and I have more people calling
If someone is offering you hush money. Then you know you’re doing something right.
You bringing this to light proves their deceit.
A man of integrity right here. To be honest, we need more of these honest opinions to prevent sleazeball companies from thriving, especially in today's day and age.
Proud of you Joel, gotta stand up to scammers.
Haha
And mushroom zombies
Remember that this is hardcore evidence of blackmail too. They're legally chargeable now
Honor is a far greater wealth, than greed.
I may be a complete stranger on the internet, but I am not disappointed in you. Thanks for standing your ground. Yeah it ain't always easy.
Thank you for helping to protect people and their property from these criminals
I’m so happy to see that someone else knows of the inherent problems with these types of products and had the wherewithal to address the issue; KUDOS

You’re a good man for not selling out
You know you're doing something right when not only are they offering a fair bit of money but then they double. Keep up the good fight.

I hate cleaning gutters with gutter guards, leaves and branches get stuck in there and you have to un install them smh
You won't have that problem with Leaf Filter. The other brands just need to fold
Don’t apologize. Frankly, telling people to “get fucked” in response to them trying to buy your silence because they can’t handle criticism is always going to make me happy.
🤣
Literally proves this man's point by trying to bribe him. Instead of changing, they'd rather pay this guy dirty money to stop. Cannot believe this
I am surprised they offered that money, they must be truly incompetent. The videos and the attention to your business is worth so much more
You know when they start trying to throw money at you they’re scummy.
I nearly "invested" into buying gutter guards somewhat recently, and upon looking up information on them I found your videos, and I thank you SO MUCH for keeping these vids up to help end the cycle
You sir are a good man
I would only be disappointed if you took the money.
It's not everyday you can say you can Say "Get fucked" to a compagny and be universaly applauded
Well done for standing up for others
U should be able to state your opinion and reason without being given bribery from big companies
that gutter guard is one of the worst installs ever.
Nice job and keep up the good work protecting the people from these predators!
Another good American and a good man. Thank you.
