When Jacksonville gutters fill up
Trees common in the region drop debris into gutter systems throughout the entire year. Pines drop sharp needles constantly, while broadleaf live oak, water oak, sweetgum, red maple, and southern magnolia drop sweetgum balls, acorns, leaves, and heavy yellow spring pollen. Peak leaf drop usually occurs in late October. Although freezing nights happen, snow is rare and ice dams in gutters are not an issue here. Still, constant organic debris can completely block a downspout before heavy rains arrive. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect your property. Scheduled maintenance keeps your roof and gutters clean before severe weather strikes North Carolina.
