When Milltown gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, such as broadleaf red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine, drop heavy material on Milltown roof tops. In spring, oak catkins fill up gutters quickly. By mid October, leaf drop usually peaks across New Jersey, sending massive piles of fallen leaves, acorns, and spiky sweetgum balls into the roof channel. Freezing nights happen here, and snow is likely during cold winter months, making packed channels hazardous to your home. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep every downspout clear before freezing weather sets in.
