When North Druid Hills gutters fill up
Trees common in this region include water oak, broadleaf live oak, sweetgum, red maple, southern magnolia, loblolly pine, longleaf pine, and slash pine. Pine needles drop into gutters all year long, while yellow pollen covers roofs in spring and sweetgum balls fall with seasonal acorns. Live oak leaves drop heavily, and general leaf drop usually peaks in late October. Freezing nights happen here, but ice dams in gutters are not an issue and snow is rare. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, to protect your North Druid Hills property from constant foliage accumulation and sudden blockages.
