When Wade Hampton gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including sweetgum, red maple, water oak, broadleaf live oak, and southern magnolia, drop heavy leaves and sweetgum balls into roof systems. Local conifers like loblolly pine, longleaf pine, and slash pine shed pine needles into channels all year long, while yellow pollen covers surfaces in spring. Broadleaf live oak drop occurs early, and general fall leaf drop usually peaks in late October. Freezing nights happen here, though ice dams are not an issue and snow is rare. To protect every home in Wade Hampton, South Carolina, we recommend gutter cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall.
