When Seabrook gutters fill up
Trees common in the region drop debris across Seabrook during distinct times of the year. Broadleaf live oak trees drop heavy leaves during late winter and early spring rather than fall, while pecan, cedar elm, crape myrtle, and post oak drop debris later. Conifers like loblolly pine and ashe juniper dump thick pollen and needles in winter, followed by oak catkins and pecan shells that easily choke downspouts. Because freezing nights are rare here, ice dams do not form in local gutters, making heavy rainfall the primary hazard for roofs. We recommend comprehensive gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep channels free of debris.
