Gutter Guard Patents

“To hold a patent that has changed the modern world would define you as an innovator. To hold more than one patent of this caliber would define you as a true leader.”

Edward “Alex” Higginbotham holds more US and international patents in the field of microfiltration gutter guards and MicroMeshGutterGuards.com licenses his patent portfolio.  His technology represents the 19th and 20th core advancements in gutter guards since the 1880s.  The Higginbotham patents are the foundation for the advancements in the gutter guard industry related to microfiltration.

Karen Sager has now also joined Alex as a patent holder in MicroMeshGutterGuards.com’s portfolio.

A patent consists of claims.  Each claim describes and protects something independently unique or covers a specific point dependent one of the main claims.  Once a claim is granted and the patent is issued by the USPTO, no other party can be granted a claim on the same unique technology or feature.  It is possible for a third party to patent an additional feature or enhancement to the original patented idea, but they cannot incorporate it with or into the underlying technology without the original patent holder’s approval.

MicroMeshGutterGuards.com, the manufacturer of MasterShield Gutter Protection, has been Higginbotham patents’ Exclusive Licensee for these patent since March 2008, with Exclusive License rights in metal to Patent 6,598,352.   As new patents are issued, they become a part of the MicroMeshGutterGuards.com portfolio.  The use of the Patents and Trademarks we license or own by any other entity is an infringement of our legal rights and is open to prosecution.
