When Hastings gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including sugar maple, red maple, bur oak, hickory, American elm, white pine, and spruce, constantly deposit material onto local roof surfaces. Spring brings maple seed wings that quickly choke a narrow downspout, while late summer delivers heavy acorns and falling needles. Leaf drop usually peaks in early October, filling trough channels right before cold weather arrives. Winter brings freezing nights, snow, and severe ice dams in gutters that put heavy structural weight on the eaves. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, during spring and fall, to protect every residential roof before ice locks trapped debris against the roof edge.
