Experts recommend cleaning gutters out at least twice per year - once in the spring and again in the fall. This is because leaves and other debris can fall and get trapped in your gutters and downspouts, causing clogs when rain falls and snow melts leading to water damage to other parts of your home including your foundation. While it may sound easy to get the ladder out and do this project yourself, it's best to leave this job to the professionals to avoid injury or damage to your gutters - especially if you have a high roof.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to clean my gutters?

The average cost of gutter and downspout cleaning is about $160, or between $120 and $225. The total depends on factors like the height of your house and the condition of your gutters. To get an approximate cost, use linear feet or the square footage of your house.

  • Linear feet: estimate how long your gutters are and multiply by:
    • Single-Story Home: $1 per linear foot.
    • Two-Story: $2 per linear foot.
  • Square feet: measure your property, excluding areas without gutters, and multiply by:
    • Single-Story: $0.40 per square foot.
    • Two-Story: $0.80 per square foot.

Why is it important to clean my gutters?

Professionals recommend you clean your gutters up to three times a year: In the spring, summer and fall. Clean gutters with gutter guards at least once a year.

Clogged gutters can cause pooling on your roof, which is one of the most expensive components of your house. Pooling water leads to leaking and overflowing, which puts your roof, interior or foundation at risk for damage.

What does gutter cleaning include?

A licensed gutter cleaner will inspect your gutters and remove dirt and debris from them.

If you have a gutter guard, they will clean it out and inspect it to make sure there is no damage. Your service professional can also repair fasteners and seals while they are cleaning.

How long does it take to clean my gutters?

It takes up to two hours to clean gutters on a one- or two-story home. Removing gutter guards can add more time to the process. Large homes or those with high roofs or a significant slant may require more time. Talk to your service professional about the length of time needed to complete the job.
