When Dunwoody gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including loblolly pine, water oak, sweetgum, and red maple, drop debris onto Dunwoody roofs through every season. Pines drop sharp pine needles all year, which catch inside every aluminum gutter joint and weave into tight mats. Spring fills gutters with thick yellow pollen and live oak leaf drop, while fall brings heavy broadleaf foliage that peaks in late October. Freezing nights happen during winter, turning standing gutter water into ice that strains fasteners, though ice dams in gutters are not an issue here. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect each residential gutter from ongoing blockages.
