When Sequim gutters fill up
Sequim sits in a unique dry microclimate, yet routine maintenance remains essential for every home. Leaves, needles, and seeds from nearby trees collect in gutters throughout the year, blocking proper drainage. Leaf drop usually peaks in late September, creating massive blockage risks right before heavy rains arrive. Freezing nights happen here, but ice dams in gutters are not an issue and snow is rare. To protect your home, we recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall. Spring clearing removes winter seeds and grit, while fall service removes dropped leaves and heavy foliage before winter cold sets in across the Sequim region.
