Cornelius, NC / Storyteller / Nov 11, 2026 / As roadside leaf collection gets underway in Cornelius, Great State Roofing has published a seasonal rain checklist for homeowners in the Lake Norman area. The checklist explains how to use observations from a window and a ground-level walk after the rain to document where water leaves the roof and where it ends up. Local leaf collection updateThe Cornelius roofing team recommends starting with three exterior observations. Note whether water spills over the front of a gutter, runs down the board behind it, or leaves the downspout and pools next to the house. When runoff spills in the same place during several rains, record the location and whether the rain was steady or unusually heavy. Observations like these can help a professional narrow down where to look, from the gutter outlet to the connection between the gutter and roof edge.
