When to clean gutters in Pine
The first fall frost comes around November 10 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around April 9 (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.

Gutter and downspout size for Pine rain
The short, hard downpour is what a gutter is sized for. In Pine the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 6.97 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 1). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 1,030 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 2,070, 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 Pine
Half the homes in Pine were built by 1984, 39% before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). Houses that age have often had their gutters replaced once already; if not, the original runs and the boards behind them deserve a close look.
82% of households own their home, and 89% 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.
