When Selma gutters fill up
Trees across Selma drop heavy amounts of leaves, needles, and seeds directly into residential roof channels throughout the year. Leaf drop usually peaks in late October, making the mid-fall period an essential time to remove dry material before winter rains arrive. Freezing nights are rare in this region, snow is rare, and ice dams in gutters are not an issue. However, winter storms bring steady rainfall that demands fully open downspout outlets. When dry plant matter packs together, rain cannot pass through, creating clogged gutters that spill onto siding. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to maintain clear channels before seasonal rain begins.
