When Bellview gutters fill up
Trees common in the region drop debris throughout every season in Bellview, Florida. Southern magnolia, broadleaf live oak, water oak, sweetgum, and red maple drop heavy leaves and sweetgum balls, while loblolly pine, longleaf pine, and slash pine drop yellow pollen in spring and pine needles all year. Freezing nights are rare and ice dams do not form here, but heavy downpours require open channels. Pine needles weave together inside channels, blocking water flow to downspouts. We recommend cleaning gutters at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect residential roof systems from standing water during wet Florida weather.
