When Dripping Springs gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including broadleaf live oak, pecan, cedar elm, crape myrtle, post oak, loblolly pine, and ashe juniper, drop dynamic material throughout the year. Live oak trees shed hard leaves in early spring rather than fall, while oak catkins and winter ashe juniper pollen quickly build up inside the channel. Pecan shells and cedar elm leaves add heavy buildup later in the year. Freezing nights happen, though ice dams in gutters are not an issue and snow is rare in Dripping Springs. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to maintain water flow through every downspout and protect your roof.
