When Tequesta gutters fill up
Local trees here are largely evergreen and shed leaves, needles, and seed pods year-round onto every residential roof. Because plant matter drops continuously, channels collect constant debris regardless of the month. Heavy summer downpours put maximum strain on choked downspouts. Freezing nights are rare, so ice dams in gutters are not an issue in this tropical environment, and snow is rare. However, continuous humidity speeds up rot when damp organic material sits against wooden fascia. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to clear organic accumulation before tropical weather systems arrive. Routine schedule maintenance protects your roofline from holding damp debris against vulnerable house trim.
