When Covedale gutters fill up
In this part of Ohio, common broadleaf trees like sugar maple, red maple, bur oak, hickory, and American elm drop vast amounts of leaves and seed wings, while white pine and spruce shed sharp needles. Winter brings freezing nights, heavy snow, and cold conditions where blocked water forms severe ice dams in clogged gutters. Ice buildup puts immense strain on gutters and fascia boards, pushing water up under roof shingles. To protect against changing weather, we recommend scheduled gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall. A spring check clears out seed pods and early growth, while late fall clearing extracts fallen oak and maple leaves before freezing temperatures arrive.
