When Palermo gutters fill up
In Palermo, California, leaf drop usually peaks in mid October, sending a sudden flush of leaves, needles, and seeds directly into your gutter system. Freezing nights are rare here, snow is rare, and ice dams in gutters are not an issue for local homeowners. However, winter storms still drop heavy rain that requires clear channels. When leaves, needles, and seeds accumulate through the fall, winter rains quickly back up and overflow. To keep your drainage clear, we recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall. Spring cleaning removes pollen and dry seed pods, while fall visits prepare your roofline for incoming seasonal storms.
