When Conway gutters fill up
Conway homeowners manage constant canopy drop from trees common in the region, including live oak, water oak, sweetgum, red maple, southern magnolia, loblolly pine, longleaf pine, and slash pine. Pine needles fall into channels all year long, while spring brings thick yellow pollen. Sweetgum balls, acorns, and live oak leaves accumulate quickly, with the main leaf drop usually peaking in late October. Although freezing nights happen, ice dams are not an issue here and snow is rare. We recommend professional gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to clear seasonal debris and protect downspouts before heavy regional rainfall hits South Carolina coastal plain homes.
