When Pennside gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, such as broadleaf red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine, constantly shed material onto Pennside, PA roofs. Spring brings oak catkins that clump inside channels, followed by summer storms, while leaf drop usually peaks in mid October with falling leaves, acorns, and spiky sweetgum balls. Winter brings freezing nights and snow, making blocked water expand inside metal channels. We recommend a gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect every Pennside property. Regular gutter cleaning removes heavy fall leaves and spring tree droppings before frozen moisture or heavy rains can damage the gutters and roof.
