When Bellaire gutters fill up
Trees common in the region drop debris into gutter troughs throughout the entire year. Broadleaf live oak trees drop leaves in spring rather than fall, while oak catkins and pecan shells accumulate during late spring. Conifers like loblolly pine and ashe juniper shed needles, cones, and winter pollen, while crape myrtle and post oak drop debris later in the year. Freezing nights are rare, so ice dams in gutters are not an issue in Bellaire, but frequent rain requires open downspout channels. We recommend professional gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to maintain proper water flow through every gutter channel.
