When Troy Hills gutters fill up
Trees common in this region include broadleaf red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine. In spring, oak catkins drop quickly, while fall brings heavy leaves, acorns, and spiky sweetgum balls. Peak leaf drop usually occurs in mid October. Freezing nights happen regularly during winter, and snow is likely, making clear channels critical before cold weather sets in. Even though ice dams in gutters are not an issue here, packed snow melting on top of locked debris forces trapped water into the roof edge. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, during spring and fall, to protect your Troy Hills home year-round.
