When Martin gutters fill up
In Martin, Tennessee, tree species common in the region drop debris into drainage channels throughout the calendar year. Broadleaf white oak, hickory, sweetgum, tulip poplar, and red maple shed heavy piles of leaves and acorns, while loblolly pine and eastern red cedar drop sharp needles. Spring brings heavy tree pollen, followed by fall foliage buildup. Freezing nights happen here, and snow is likely during winter, making clear drainage channels critical to prevent standing water from freezing inside metal channels. We recommend clearing every home gutter system at least twice a year, spring and fall, to manage seasonal leaf drop and protect your home through cold winter cold snaps.
