When Molalla gutters fill up
Trees around Molalla drop leaves, needles, and seeds directly onto roof edges throughout the year. Leaf drop usually peaks in early October, filling channel runs right before the heavy Oregon rain setting in for late fall. Freezing nights happen during winter months, though ice dams in gutters are not an issue and snow is rare in Molalla. Wet debris sits in the channel, creating heavy sludge that weighs down sagging sections along the roofline. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall. A spring gutter cleaning visit removes leftover winter clutter, while fall gutter cleaning clears fresh leaves before cold rain spills over channel edges.
