New Homes, Old Woods
Brandywine is in transition — farmland and forest giving way to new subdivisions, with builders leaving stands of mature trees between the lots. The result: brand-new homes sitting in old woods. The gutters are weeks old and already filling.
The signature debris here is the sweetgum ball — spiky, round, perfectly sized to wedge into gutter joints and downspout openings. Sweetgums drop them by the hundreds in fall. Add the oak leaf load and spring seed pods, and a new gutter can pack solid in its first year.
Guard Early, Guard Once
New construction is the best time for guards: the gutters are straight, the hangers are fresh, the fascia is solid. The install is fast and clean — no repair work, just clean-out, fit, and test. And guarding now means the gutters never experience the debris-weight cycle that ages them.
For sweetgum-ball lots we fit micro-mesh — the fine mesh stops the balls at the surface where they roll off, instead of letting them wedge into the channel. Screen guards are a distant second here: the balls sit in the screen holes like eggs in a carton.
