When Jackson gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, such as broadleaf white oak, hickory, sweetgum, tulip poplar, and red maple, drop heavy leaves every fall, usually peaking in early November. Loblolly pine and eastern red cedar drop sharp needles and cones that collect in corners and clog downspout openings. Spring brings thick yellow pollen that forms dense sludge inside channels. Freezing nights happen during Mississippi winters, though ice dams are not an issue and snow is rare. Wet debris stays damp, weighing down channels and rusting steel fast. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect your property.
