When Tillmans Corner gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including broadleaf white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, red maple, loblolly pine, and eastern red cedar, drop material into local gutters throughout the year. Spring brings dense pollen and early seed pods, while fall fills channels with heavy broadleaf foliage. Pines shed slender needles that weave together, forming dense mats inside the trough. Because freezing nights are rare in Tillmans Corner, Alabama, ice dams are not an issue and snow is rare. However, heavy rains make clear drainage essential all year. We recommend scheduling a gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep rainwater moving freely off the roof.
