When Austintown gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including sugar maple, red maple, bur oak, hickory, American elm, white pine, and spruce, drop debris directly onto local homes. Fall leaf drop usually peaks in mid October, packing channels with wet foliage, while spring brings helicopter seeds and spruce needles. Freezing nights happen regularly throughout Ohio winters, making ice dams in gutters a real winter problem when trapped water freezes solid. Liquid blocked behind ice dams leads to massive structural rot along rooflines. To protect your property, we recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, clearing away seasonal organic trash before hard freezes arrive.
