When Brookhaven gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, such as loblolly pine, slash pine, sweetgum, and red maple, constantly shed drop into Brookhaven gutters. Pine needles collect inside channels all year, while yellow pollen, live oak leaves, and sweetgum balls drop heavily during spring. Fall leaf drop usually peaks in late October, packing open channels with thick debris before winter. Freezing nights happen here, but ice dams in gutters are not an issue. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to prevent stuck debris from stopping flow. Regular service protects the roof from standing water through every wet Georgia season.
