When Pismo Beach gutters fill up
Coastal trees in Pismo Beach are largely evergreen and shed leaves, needles, and seed pods year-round rather than dropping them all at once in fall. Freezing nights are rare in this part of California, so ice dams in gutters and frozen downspouts are not an issue for local homeowners. However, steady ocean fog and moisture cause damp organic debris to compact inside the channels throughout winter and summer alike. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep channels clear before winter rains arrive and to clean out summer build-up before the damp weather sets in.
