When West Windsor gutters fill up
Trees common in the region, including broadleaf red maple, white oak, hickory, tulip poplar, sweetgum, and eastern white pine, drop a steady stream of debris into roof channels. Oak catkins fall during spring, followed by heavy leaf drop that usually peaks in mid October, along with acorns and spiky sweetgum balls. Freezing nights and snow are likely in New Jersey winter months, though ice dams in gutters are not an issue here. Still, frozen slush can weigh down clogged lines. We recommend scheduling gutter cleaning at least twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, to maintain free drainage through every season.
