When Rockville Centre gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including broadleaf red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine, drop heavy debris into roof troughs. Oak catkins fall during spring, followed by acorns and spiky sweetgum balls later in the year. Leaf drop usually peaks in mid October, filling roof gutters right before winter. Freezing nights happen and snow is likely in New York, though ice dams in gutters are not an issue here. Still, standing water can freeze and stress hangers. We recommend professional gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to clear out organic material and maintain proper water flow around your property.
