When Truro gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, such as broadleaf sugar maple, red maple, bur oak, hickory, American elm, white pine, and spruce, drop heavy debris into open troughs. Maple seed wings fall in late spring, while acorns, pine needles, and heavy leaves drop through fall, usually peaking in mid October. Freezing nights happen throughout the winter in Truro, Ohio, making snow and ice dams in gutters a real threat that causes back-ups under shingles. We recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep channels empty before heavy foliage drops or freezing temperatures settle over the township. Scheduled maintenance helps protect your home from winter ice dams and intense spring rainfall.
