When Post gutters fill up
Trees common in the region drop debris across the year. Live oaks lose old foliage in spring rather than fall, dropping heavy leaf cover alongside oak catkins. Pecan trees scatter shells, while cedar elms drop debris in late summer. Winter brings juniper pollen that collects as fine sludge in gutter channels. Leaf drop usually peaks in early November, filling channels before winter arrives. Freezing nights happen here, turning trapped water into solid ice that strains metal fasteners, though ice dams are not an issue and snow is rare. To protect your home, we recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to maintain proper water drainage throughout changing seasons.
