Our crew cleans gutters in Little Rock, every run flushed and flow-tested, leaves hauled away, and photos of each run before we leave. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover hangs over the house, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. On our jobs most customers book in the spring and fall, which is when the seed drop and the leaf fall fill the gutters fastest.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price depends on stories, square footage and what is in the gutters. We give an estimate over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Other gutter cleaning services that price by the linear foot land in a similar place per foot, but the house is what matters, and that is what we measure. The same measure-first quote goes to little rock homes, and to commercial properties, where the building sets the number.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds when the ladder goes up. A third story or a pitch too steep to walk takes longer and more care. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline. Gutters that nobody has opened in years come out with a clog packed hard, and sometimes structural damage to the fascia shows up once the trough is empty; gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add time. Flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. Anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, never on the invoice.
On a house with heavy tree cover, the rain gutter fills with seeds, needles and grit faster than most, and the crew spends more time at the clogged downspouts than at the runs. On a lot with few trees the job is mostly leaves and debris from above, cleared in one pass. Either way a clean flush at the bottom of each drop pipe is what tells us whether the water flow runs clear and carries water away from the house or sits in the run.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $185 | from $240 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $165 | from $215 | from $280 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $190 | from $250 | from $325 |
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 of our customers book twice a year, once in the spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in the fall after the last leaves come down. On our jobs in May we find the drop pipe elbows packed with seeds and pollen paste. In November it is a wet leaf mat that holds water against the roofline, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that have started to sag by the time winter sets in. This schedule applies to residential and commercial buildings alike; what changes it is the tree cover.
On residential properties under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the schedule that keeps up, because needles and grit pack the drop pipes between visits, and a clog or blockage can hold rainwater in the trough long enough to overflow in the next rainy stretch and rot the fascia behind it. Houses with few or no trees do well once a year in late fall, and if you only plan to clean your gutters once, make it the fall visit. Guards reduce how often the run fills, but they do not stop the surface buildup, so the surface still gets cleared on the same visit.
After the first visit we tell you which of those schedules your lot actually needs, based on what we found in the gutters rather than a general rule. Regular gutter cleaning on that schedule keeps the runs from filling in the first place. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will set the first date for your gutter cleaning service.
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 works across little rock and the surrounding areas from the nearest base. For little rock gutter cleaning in little rock ar, the quote starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: stories, size, tree cover, and a photo of the house front if that is easy to send. Most little rock homeowners book by phone for all gutter services, with a date confirmed once we have the measurements. Most slots come up within the programmed lead time, and we will tell you the window when you call.
The two busy windows of the year are late spring and late fall, when the seed drop and the leaf fall both come down at once. Booking early in those months keeps the slot you want, and a regular visit helps keep your gutters running all year. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the outside work. The crew checks the gutters from the ladder, and any leak at a seam gets photographed and reported. Before the truck leaves they flush every downspout, and the gutters and downspouts get a last look from the ground. Each homeowner gets a photo of every run as the crew leaves, which makes a clean record whether or not you were there. The whole visit is there to protect your home and keep the home from water damage, not just to empty the trough.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and what is in the gutters, and we give it to you by phone or text. There is no price chart to look up; we measure the house and tell you the price before the crew comes out. We offer cleaning services in Little Rock priced by the house, and the number we give is the number on the invoice.
On our jobs around here, most customers book in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and again in late fall after the leaves come down. If the fall visit gets skipped, we often find sagging runs by the time the first cold snap arrives. A spring cleaning and maintenance visit on a tree-heavy lot is the one we see most often.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a clean date when you call. If a same-day window is open on a given day we will say so on the phone, but we do not promise it in advance.
No. The crew works outside and does not come inside. Leave the side gate unlocked, keep pets indoors while the ladders are up, and if landscape beds sit under the drop pipes, tell us so the crew can plan the ladder. When the job is done the crew leaves the ground clean, and photos of every run and every drain go to your phone before the truck leaves.
Yes. The gutter cleaning process ends with each run flushed as part of our gutter maintenance and watched until it runs clear at the bottom. Where a line feeds an underground drain, 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.
Yes. On our jobs we find needles, seed balls, the odd twig and seed casings sitting on top of the guard, and grit underneath. Once that mat gets wet, water runs off the front edge instead of going into the gutter. The surface still gets cleared on the same visit.
A gutter system that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in heavy rainfall has a slope or capacity problem, not a cleaning problem. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, because water should run away from your home, not over the edge. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope issue.
Only if the crew finds something that changes the job, and in that case you hear it and agree to it before any work starts. The quote from the phone is the price on the invoice, so you can get your gutters cleaned without a surprise.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
