Our own crew cleans gutters in Gilbert AZ, flushes every downspout, tests the flow, hauls the leaves away and sends you photos of every run before we leave, so you can see the clean result yourself. The price comes from your stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. We have been doing this work across Arizona for years and most of our Gilbert customers book in the spring and fall.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price depends on how many stories the house has, its square footage and what is in the gutter system. We give an estimate over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we name is the number we charge. Some companies price gutter cleaning services by the linear foot, but our gutter services land in a similar place once the length is counted.
On Gilbert homes, the things that move the price are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement or sloped landscape that puts the back run far above grade, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with compacted leaves, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can clean underneath. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included, and the leaves and debris go with the truck, never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Our jobs here show the pattern. On one house with a sag in the back run, the price was driven by a packed rain gutter that had gone years without a clog check, and our crew flushed the clogged downspouts, cleared the buildup, left the trough clean, and checked the water flow before reporting the drainage fault in writing. The same pattern shows up on homes with heavy leaves and grit, and after heavy rainfall on commercial properties, where a single missed downspout can leave water pooling at the foundation and set up structural damage. Send the photo and those three facts, and we will tell you exactly what the job will take.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $195 | from $255 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $170 | from $225 | from $295 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $200 | from $265 | from $345 |
For context, nationally: Angi 2026, US average $168, most $119 to $234, $0.95 to $2.25 per linear foot.
Downspouts flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled, photos of every run. The quote already has all of it in.
Our crew clears every gutter run by hand, not just the stretch you can see from the driveway. Roof valleys and the area above the gutter line are blown clear first, so the next rain does not refill what was just emptied. Every downspout is flushed with water and watched until it runs clear at the bottom; one that will not clear is worked from the top where it can be reached. Where a downspout feeds an underground drain line, the crew checks that water is leaving at the outlet and tells you if it is not; clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Debris goes into bags and leaves with the truck. It is not blown onto the lawn, the deck or next door. The ground is left as it was found.
Before the crew leaves you get photos of every run and every downspout, before and after, on your phone, whether or not you were home. Anything the crew sees that is not a cleaning problem, a hanger pulled loose, a seam dripping, a run sitting flat, is photographed and reported, not repaired and not sold on the spot.
What can change the number, and you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice: a third story or a roof too steep to walk; gutters that have not been touched in years; guards that have to come off and go back on.
Twice a year for most houses: once after the spring seed and pollen drop, once after the last leaves fall.
Most Gilbert homeowners book twice a year. Across Arizona, the spring visit lands in mid to late June, after the seed and pollen drop, and our fall visit runs December to early January, after the last leaves come down. In spring we find seeds, seed casings, pollen paste and the odd twig packed into the downspout elbows. In fall it is the leaf load and the grit underneath it, and on houses that skipped the fall visit the runs along the roofline are the first to sag or pull loose.
Under heavy tree cover, two cleanings a year are not enough on their own, because needles and grit pack the elbows between visits and heavy rainfall can wash the mat into a clog within weeks, with the rainwater having nowhere to go. Where there are few or no trees, one visit at the fall date is usually enough. Near a busy road or active construction, plan on a shorter gap too. Gutter guards still need the surface kept clean, but less often, so cleaning and maintenance stays on the calendar.
When we open a gutter on the spring visit, we find the spring seed mat at the elbows. When we open one in December, the leaf mat has been sitting wet since the rains. Regular gutter cleaning on that schedule means homeowners rarely call us for a blockage that has already caused water damage. After the first visit, when the runs are clean, we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and we keep the same crew on your house so the gutter record is in one place.
Water over the edge rots the board behind the gutter first. Everything after that is slow, and slow is what a policy excludes.
The three signs. Water pouring over the front edge in rain instead of out of the downspout. A run that sags, sits low or has pulled away from the fascia. Plants growing out of the trough. Any one of them means the gutter is full.
What happens next. Water that cannot drain sits in the trough and spills behind it. The fascia board rots, then the soffit. Water backs up under the first course of shingles and shows up as a ceiling stain. Siding stains and swells. Below, the overflow cuts a channel at the foundation and finds the basement. The wet debris itself weighs enough to pull the gutter off the house. Standing water breeds mosquitoes; dry debris houses wasps. Where winters freeze, the trapped water becomes an ice dam at the eave and lifts the shingles from underneath.
Why your policy will not pay. Homeowners insurance generally does not cover water damage traced to clogged gutters. Carriers class gutter cleaning as routine maintenance, and damage from skipped maintenance as preventable neglect, which a standard policy excludes. A limb that tears a gutter off in a storm is sudden and accidental and is usually covered; a fascia board that rotted over two years is not. This is general information, not insurance advice; read your policy or ask your agent.
Guards stop leaves. They do not stop needles, seeds, grit or the paste they turn into. The job gets shorter, not gone.
Yes, guarded gutters still need cleaning, less often, and it is a different job: clearing what sits on top of the guard and checking that water is actually getting in, rather than scooping out the trough. Mesh and screen guards hold whole leaves off. Pine needles thread through, seed casings and pollen mat on top, roof grit settles underneath, and once that mat is wet, rain runs over it and off the front edge. The gutter is empty and the water never went in.
Guards earn their keep under big leafy trees and on roofs too high to want to climb. They do not end maintenance, whatever the installer said. Our crew lifts the panels, clears underneath, flushes the downspouts and reseats the guards; tell us what is on the house when you get the quote and it is priced as a guarded system, which usually runs shorter than an open one.
Under an hour on most houses. Nobody has to be there, and the photos arrive either way.
The crew calls the day before with an arrival window and again when they are on the way. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical home; bigger houses, steep roofs and gutters left for years run longer. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. Before they arrive: side gate unlocked, cars off the driveway if runs face it, pets inside while ladders are up. Ladder stand-offs keep the ladder off the gutter lip and the siding. After: photos of every run and downspout before the truck leaves, and an invoice that matches the quote.
Send us a photo or a short video in the rain. You hear what it is before anyone talks about money.
Still overflowing. A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in rain has a slope, capacity or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. If that happens after a cleaning, send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we tell you what it actually is; we do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
The number. The price quoted on the phone is the price on the invoice. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before they start, never after.
Your house. Stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip, and screens and downspout extensions go back where they were.
Payment. The balance is charged when the job is finished and the photos are on your phone. Some dates take a small booking fee to hold the slot, and you hear about it before you book.
The whole city and the towns around it, booked by phone or text from the nearest crew.
Our crew covers the surrounding areas across Gilbert from the nearest base, so most houses in the city get a slot without a long wait. We clean the gutters on residential properties and commercial ones alike, and our gutter cleaning process is the same on every house: the number from the photo and the three facts, call before we come, and nobody needs to be home. The lead time depends on how many houses are already booked that week, and we tell you the first open date when you call.
Our calendar fills in two busy windows, the weeks after the spring seed drop and the weeks after the first leaves in fall. Booking early in those windows gets you a date you choose. Outside them, slots open up faster. Text a photo of the front of the house if that is easier than describing it, and we will confirm the tier and the price from it, so you know what a clean job costs before we arrive.
Keep your gutters on a schedule and the number stays predictable, so you know the price before we arrive. Whether it is one house or a block of homes, the aim is the same: clean the gutters and downspouts on every run, flush every downspout, and protect your home from water damage before the next storm. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo to book gilbert gutter cleaning, and we will get your gutters ready for the monsoon. Across Arizona, a single monsoon cell can drop heavy rain in an hour.
The number comes from the stories, the square footage and what is in the gutters. We give it by phone or text, and it is the number we charge. Downspout flushing and haul-off are in it already, as with every one of our gutter services.
Most homeowners book in spring, after the seed and pollen drop, and in late fall, after the last leaves come down. Across Arizona, the spring visit lands in mid to late June, and our fall visit runs December to early January. If the fall visit gets skipped, the runs on that house start to sag before spring.
Most slots come up within the week. Call (866) 435-6328 and we confirm the first open date when you ring.
No. Our crew works outside and does not come inside. We send photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves, and you get a clean set of photos either way. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, every downspout is flushed and the flow is checked at the outlet, so you know the roof is shedding water away from the foundation. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it. That check is part of the gutter cleaning process, not an add-on.
Yes, usually less often, but the surface still needs clearing as part of gutter maintenance, and a clean surface keeps water moving. Under guards we often find needles and grit packed in the trough that water cannot get past.
A gutter that is clean and still spills in rain has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a buildup problem. If the water comes from a leak at a joint, that is a repair we will point out, not sell. Water that keeps spilling is how wood rot starts behind the trough. Text us a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning.
Only if something changes the job, and you hear it and agree to it before work starts. The quote is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
