When Taylor gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including sugar maple, red maple, bur oak, hickory, American elm, white pine, and spruce, drop constant seasonal debris. Spring brings maple seed wings that lodge in downspouts, while fall releases dense leaves and acorns. Leaf drop usually peaks in early October. In winter, freezing nights bring heavy ice dams that form inside full channels, buckling metal sections and rotting adjacent fascia board edges under snow build up. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to protect residential rooflines from winter freezing weather. Timely gutter maintenance keeps downspout lines open so winter snow melts cleanly away without freezing inside metal gutters.
