When New Burlington gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, such as red maple, sugar maple, bur oak, hickory, American elm, white pine, and spruce, shed huge amounts of waste. Spring brings falling maples seed wings, while fall introduces thick foliage, acorns, and needle drop, usually peaking around mid October. Freezing nights follow quickly, turning trapped gutter water into heavy ice dams that pull gutters away from the roof edge. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to manage seasonal waste effectively. Timely gutter cleaning prevents standing water from freezing inside downspouts, protecting your roof overhangs from structural expansion, cracked joints, and winter weather strain.
