When Dedham gutters fill up
Tree species common in the region, such as sugar maple, red maple, American beech, white birch, northern red oak, eastern white pine, and eastern hemlock, drop heavy debris. In spring, maple seed wings scatter onto the roof, while acorns and a heavy carpet of fallen leaves drop in fall, usually peaking in early October. Pine needles also filter into the gutter channel throughout the year. Freezing nights, winter snow, and ice dams make clear channels vital before cold weather sets in. We recommend professional gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect Dedham properties through every changing season.
