When we handle gutter cleaning in your area, it comes down to three things: protecting your plants and property, cleaning with the right method, and walking the job with you at the end.
The right method for the job
No pressure on roofs: high pressure strips the protective granules from shingles and can crack tile. Roofs are cleaned with a soft wash solution and a gentle rinse.
When to book gutter cleaning
- Water spilling over the gutter edge in rain
- Plants growing in the gutters
- Sagging gutters
- Stains on siding below the gutters
- Downspouts that don't drain
Where the grime comes from
- Leaves, needles and seed pods
- Roof granules and debris
- Nests and pests
Safe steps for homeowners
- Clean from a stable ladder with a helper, never from the roof edge
- Use a scoop and gloves, then flush with a hose
- Consider gutter guards if trees overhang the roof

How much does gutter cleaning cost?
What moves the price:
- Size: square footage of siding, roof or flatwork
- Condition: heavy growth, old stains and peeling finishes take longer
- Access: number of stories, roof pitch, slopes and how close we can park
- Add-ons: sealing, gutter brightening and other services done in the same trip

Gutter Cleaning: frequently asked questions
How much does gutter cleaning cost?
Gutter Cleaning typically costs $150-$350 for a typical one- or two-story home, and usually takes 1-2 hours. The exact price depends on the size and condition, and you get it before any work starts. Call (555) 010-0000 for a free quote.
Do you use high pressure for gutter cleaning?
Gutter Cleaning is done with hand cleaning and flush. Low pressure and the right solution remove growth and dirt without damaging the surface, and the growth takes longer to come back.
Is gutter cleaning safe for my plants and pets?
We pre-wet plants and lawns, keep cleaning solutions diluted to what the surface needs, and rinse landscaping again when we finish. Keep pets and children inside until surfaces are rinsed and dry.
How often should I schedule gutter cleaning?
Once or twice a year. Shade, nearby trees, humidity and heavy traffic mean more frequent cleaning; sunny, dry spots can go longer. Our free cleaning frequency tool gives a recommendation for your climate.
What if it rains on the day?
Light rain doesn't stop most washing, but heavy rain, high wind, lightning and freezing temperatures do. If the weather isn't right, we reschedule at no charge. Our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee.
