When Folsom gutters fill up
Folsom experiences mild winters where freezing nights are rare, meaning ice dams in gutters do not form here and snow is rare. However, local trees drop heavy amounts of leaves, needles, and seeds directly into open channels. This debris accumulation usually peaks in mid October, right before winter rain begins across California. Leaves clog downspouts right when early heavy storms sweep through Sacramento County. To protect your home year-round, we recommend cleaning your system at least twice a year, during spring and fall. Spring service removes leftover seed pods, while fall maintenance opens paths for rain, preventing water buildup around your exterior trim and foundation.
