When Maywood gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine, drop constant materials into roof channels. Oak catkins arrive during spring, while acorns, spiky sweetgum balls, and heavy fallen leaves drop later in the year. Leaf drop usually peaks in mid October across Maywood, New Jersey. Freezing nights and likely snow during winter turn lingering organic matter into frozen blockages that weigh down the roofline, even when ice dams in gutters are not an issue. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect your residential property from blockages before freezing weather sets in.
