Worst Trees for blocking gutters

Large trees around your home are usually the worst contributing factor in gutter blockage. Gum Trees are the worst trees in Australia for gutter blockage.

One gum tree can drop so much rubbish all year round. Gum Trees also shed a lot of small to large twigs and branches, which can cover your roof.

If your house is surrounded by giant Gum Trees than the gutters seem to block up before you’ve even finished clearing them. This is where many ask, ‘will Gutter Guard help?’

  1. My neighbours have a ridiculously tall Gum tree hanging over our roof which drops leaves all over our roof and we end up cleaning the gutter every month. Maybe we need gutter guard.
