When Wollochet gutters fill up
Coastal weather patterns keep Wollochet wet through much of the year. Tree foliage sheds heavily across roof surfaces, filling elevated channels with organic matter. Leaves, needles, and seeds from nearby trees collect in gutters and create thick organic clogs that block downspout openings. Leaf drop usually peaks in late September, sending mass amounts of debris onto home roofs. Freezing nights are rare, ice dams in gutters are not an issue, and snow is rare in this part of Washington. Because rain persists through winter, maintaining continuous water flow is vital. We recommend cleaning at least twice a year, spring and fall, to keep channels empty before seasonal downpours begin.
