When Countryside gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including red maple, water oak, sweetgum, and loblolly pine, drop debris over the roof during distinct months. Spring brings thick yellow pollen, while sweetgum balls, acorns, and live oak leaves gather in drainage lines through late summer. Leaf drop usually peaks in mid October, piling heavy matter into roof channels just as freezing nights and snow become likely. Because winter brings frozen conditions, clearing pine needles and broadleaf accumulation prevents trapped moisture from heavy snow from straining your roof line. We recommend a gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep channels completely clear across every season.
