When Arnold gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including sweetgum, red maple, water oak, live oak, and loblolly pine, drop material throughout the seasons. Yellow pollen and live oak leaves coat channels in spring, while sweetgum balls and acorns drop later. Loblolly pine needles land in gutter runs all year long, forming dense mats that trap moisture. Fall leaf drop usually peaks in mid October. Freezing nights occur during winter, though snow is rare and ice dams in gutters are not an issue here. To protect your roof edge, we recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep downspouts open before cold winter weather sets in.
