When Madisonville gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including broadleaf white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, red maple, loblolly pine, and eastern red cedar, drop heavy materials into gutter channels throughout the year. Spring brings sticky pollen and oak tassels, while fall brings constant leaf drop that usually peaks in late October. In winter, freezing nights and snow bring cold weather to Madisonville, turning trapped wet leaves into heavy ice blocks that pull on gutter spikes. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to clear out fallen leaves, acorns, and pine needles before wet winter weather sets in.
