When to clean gutters in White Hall

The first fall frost comes around October 28 in a typical year here, and the last spring frost around April 18 (median dates, NOAA normals). Plan the fall visit for after the frost, when the trees over the roof have finished dropping, and the spring visit for after the pollen and catkins.

Gutter and downspout size for White Hall rain

What overwhelms a gutter is a burst, not a season. In White Hall the five-minute rain expected about once in ten years falls at 6.06 inches an hour (NOAA Atlas 14 Volume 2). At that rate one 2-by-3-inch downspout drains about 1,190 square feet of roof and one 3-by-4-inch downspout about 2,380, 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.

Half the homes in White Hall were built by 1997, 20% before 1980 (ACS 2020–2024). In a neighborhood that young, many houses still have the gutters the builder put up, and the usual call is a cleaning, a leak or guards rather than a full replacement.
