When Lenexa gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including bur oak, silver maple, green ash, hackberry, eastern red cedar, and ponderosa pine, release substantial debris throughout the year. Spring brings airborne cottonwood fluff that quickly binds together inside gutter troughs, while ash seeds and airborne dust settle during summer storms. Leaf drop usually peaks in mid October, sending massive amounts of broadleaf foliage onto the roof. Freezing nights and snow bring serious ice dams in gutters during winter when trapped water cannot drain freely. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to prevent ice dams in gutters and keep seasonal debris moving away from your home.
