When Pultney gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including sugar maple, red maple, bur oak, hickory, American elm, white pine, and spruce, release heavy debris into drainage channels. In spring, seed wings drop onto roof lines, while mid October brings a massive fall leaf drop and pine needles gather late in the year. Cold winter weather brings freezing nights, causing ice dams inside packed gutters if water trapped behind blockages freezes solid. To protect your property, we recommend scheduling professional gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall. Keeping gutters clean before winter stops ice buildup from twisting damaged metal or pushing heavy debris down into clogged downspouts.
