When Goldenrod gutters fill up
Goldenrod features thick tree canopy cover with evergreen species that drop leaves, needles, and seed pods continuously throughout all four seasons. Unlike northern climates, freezing nights are rare here, so ice dams in gutters do not form during the winter months. However, steady tree droppings combine with sudden heavy rainstorms to create dark compost in your gutter system if ignored. This constant pine needle and leaf drop requires ongoing care to protect roof surfaces and downspouts. We recommend scheduling a gutter cleaning service at least twice a year, during spring and fall, to prevent deep gutter line clogs and keep rain moving away from your home during every heavy summer storm.
