Gutter Helmet(R) by Harry Helmet(TM) Named To Inc. 5000 for Second Year in a Row

    MILLERSVILLE, MD, September 17, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Gutter Helmet(R) by Harry Helmet(TM), provider and installer of Gutter Helmet and other exterior home improvement products, announced earlier this month that they were named to Inc. magazine's Inc. 5000 list for 2013. This is the second year in a row that Gutter Helmet by Harry Helmet has been selected as one of America's fastest-growing private companies.

The Inc. 5000 is a list of the fastest-growing private companies based in the US among all industries. "These businesses make and keep American companies competitive: Within their niches, they are as innovative and service oriented as the most beloved household names. But rather than strategize to build brands, they earn reputations simply by virtue of how well they do what they do," said Leigh Buchanan, Editor at large for Inc. magazine.

While many construction-related companies are in the process of rebounding after the housing market collapse, Gutter Helmet by Harry Helmet's business is thriving. Enjoying consistent growth and expanding its operations to now include Washington State, the Harry Helmet team knows how to cater to homeowners who want to minimize maintenance for the life of their stay in a home. Del Thebaud, owner, states "Once again we're thrilled to be included in Inc.'s list of America's fastest growing companies. Our hard-working staff, whose focus is providing the best customer service, combined with offering only the highest quality of products has made Gutter Helmet by Harry Helmet what it is today."

Homeowners in recent years have invested in home improvements with an eye toward remaining in their current home rather than moving, or with a long term goal of maximizing resale value. Installation of lifetime products such as gutter protection and roof replacement provides homeowners four-season protection while increasing their home's value and curb appeal to prospective buyers.

Harry Helmet's signature product-Gutter Helmet , not only provides long term value for homeowners, but the system immediately minimizes the time they spend on keeping gutters working properly. Gutter Helmet utilizes a patented "reverse-curve" panel design which allows runoff rain water to adhere to its surface and flow through a narrow opening into the gutters while preventing leaves, pine needles, and other solid debris from falling into gutters. Gutter Helmet is installed by local manufacturer certified professionals over a homeowner's existing gutters and the product comes with a lifetime performance guarantee from the manufacturer, Southeastern Metal Co., that customers will Never Clean Their Gutters Again(R).

In addition to gutter protection, Harry Helmet offers customers a multitude of other exterior home products and services including gutter installation, roof replacement, retractable patio awnings, and Helmet Heat.

The Inc. 5000 list is ranked by percentage revenue growth over a four-year period, and companies listed are US-based, privately-held independent companies that are not divisions or subsidiaries of other companies. Companies listed on the Inc. 5000 must have revenue of at least $2 million in the most recent year.
