Its housing ranks 57th oldest by median year built of the 238 places in Kentucky on this site (half built by 1970). By first frost it falls 58th earliest for the first fall frost of the 238 places in Kentucky on this site (October 24).

When to clean gutters in Campbellsville

The first fall frost comes around October 24 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around April 15 (median dates, NOAA normals). A fall cleaning set for the weeks after that frost, when the branches over the house are bare, gets the year’s leaves in one trip; a spring visit follows once the pollen and catkins have come down.

When to clean gutters explains how the trees over a roof change the schedule.

Gutter and downspout size for Campbellsville rain

Gutters are sized for the worst few minutes of a storm, not for the year. In Campbellsville the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 6.44 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 2). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 1,120 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 2,240, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook. Try your own roof in the gutter and downspout calculator, which starts from this figure.

The houses in Campbellsville

Half the homes in Campbellsville were built by 1970, 67% before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). At that age a gutter has seen decades of leaves and storms, and the fascia it hangs from has too. On a house built before 1978, replacing more than 20 square feet of painted fascia or trim falls under the EPA’s lead-safe rule, so ask whether the crew is certified.

48% of households own their home, and 73% of homes are detached houses, 1% townhouses. If an association maintains the exterior, the gutters may be its job rather than yours; check before calling.
