When Bell gutters fill up
Local trees are largely evergreen and drop leaves, needles, and seed pods continuously throughout the entire year. Freezing nights are rare, ice dams in gutters are not an issue, and snow is rare in this part of California. However, year-round organic debris slowly settles inside open channels, packing down downspouts during fall and spring. Even without severe winter ice, dry debris can bake under the sun and restrict rain runoff when seasonal storms arrive. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, in spring and fall, to prevent heavy water damage. Regular routine checkups ensure that your drainage lines remain free and open during unexpected coastal rain downpours.
