Most homes need regular gutter cleaning twice a year, usually in the spring and fall when falling leaves, dirt, and other debris build up. If your house sits near lots of trees, you may need service more often to prevent clog issues, overflowing water, and water damage around your yard, basement, and walls. Staying on top of a routine schedule is one of the easiest ways to prevent water damage and avoid costly repairs later.

Some of the most common signs include overflowing rainwater, leaking seams, plants growing in the gutter, pests, or damaged gutters beginning to sag. You may also notice stains on the siding, wet areas near the foundation, or mold from water sitting too long. If your downspouts aren’t pushing water to your French drains or away from the ground, that’s a clear sign your system needs a good clean and flush.

Cleaning gutters on your own can be risky, especially on a two-story home where a tall ladder and careful footing are essential. A professional team brings the right equipment, like a leaf blower, bucket, brush, hose, and even a pressure washer when needed. We also carry liability insurance, which protects the customer if something goes wrong. Many homeowners prefer to leave the job to trained contractors who know how to work safely on the roof and around shingles without causing damage.

No, you don’t need to be home as long as we have access to the gutters. We handle everything on site, take care not to leave a mess, and update you when the job is done. We make sure your gutters flow properly, the downspouts are cleared, and the area around your yard stays clean.

Yes, we can clean gutters even if you already have gutter guards or plan to install gutter guards in the future. We simply remove the guards, clear and flush everything underneath, and place them back the right way. Even with guards, falling leaves, dirt, and small debris can still cause a clog, so occasional cleaning is still essential to keep rainwater moving away from your home.

The cost depends on a few factors, including the size of your house, whether you have a two story home, the condition of the fascia board, the length of the gutter system, and how much debris we need to remove. Hard-to-reach areas, older siding, and damaged gutters can also increase the price because they require more careful work. We always explain the details up front so you know exactly what you're paying for.

For most homes, the work takes about one to two hours. This includes debris removal, blowing out loose material with a blower, a full inspection, a flush of the downspouts, and a quick look at your roof, paint, seams, and surrounding ground to make sure everything drains properly. Larger homes or gutters with heavy buildup may take a bit longer, but our goal is always to work efficiently and leave everything working the way it should.

Absolutely. Clean, healthy gutters prevent water damage to your roof, walls, basement, and yard by directing rain away from your home the way the system is designed to. When gutters clog, rainwater can spill over the edges, soak into the fascia board, run down your siding, and eventually lead to expensive repair needs. Just keeping your gutters clean is one of the simplest, most effective services a homeowner can use to protect their property and avoid problems that take much more time and money to fix.
