When to clean gutters in Peachtree Corners
The first fall frost comes around November 9 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around March 25 (median dates, NOAA normals). Booking the fall cleaning after the first frost, once the trees over the roof are bare, catches the season’s drop in one visit; the spring cleaning comes after the pollen and catkins are down.
When to clean gutters explains how the trees over a roof change the schedule.
Gutter and downspout size for Peachtree Corners rain
The short, hard downpour is what a gutter is sized for. In Peachtree Corners the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 7.91 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 9). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 910 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 1,820, by the rule in the Copper Development Association’s design handbook.

Hiring in Georgia
Georgia does not require a state contractor license for gutter work: the licensing board lists “Gutters and Downspouts” among the traditional specialty trades, which under O.C.G.A. § 43-41-17 need no residential or general contractor license when the work stays within the specialty. With no state license to look up, ask for proof of liability insurance, the city or county business license, and a written quote.
