When Spring Ridge gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including red maple, sweetgum, broadleaf live oak, water oak, southern magnolia, and conifers like loblolly pine, drop debris into gutters throughout the year. Spring brings heavy yellow pollen and early dropping leaves, while mid October usually marks the peak of fall leaf drop. Sweetgum balls, acorns, and pine needles build up quickly before winter. Spring Ridge sees freezing nights and likely snow, though ice dams in gutters are not an issue here. Winter snow melt needs an open path to drain safely without overflowing. We recommend a full gutter cleaning at least twice a year, during spring and fall, to protect against water damage.
