Our own crew cleans gutters and downspouts for homeowners here. We flush every downspout and flow-test each run before we leave. Leaves and needles go into the truck, not onto your lawn, and you get photos of every run on your phone before the truck pulls out.
The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover is over the roof. Call (866) 435-6328 and the number we give you is the number on the invoice, with nothing added after the crew is up the ladder.
Most of our work here lands in the spring and fall, and that rhythm is what we plan the year around. Keeping gutters clean on that schedule helps protect your home from water damage.
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 sitting in the gutters. We quote our cleaning services in Texarkana over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place per foot, but the stories and the packed leaves are what change the job.
On our jobs, a third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the eave line. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted leaves, and one twig jammed at an outlet can hold the whole run. Gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add time. Heavy rainfall makes a clog harder to clear, so we fold that into the quote. Flushing, flow testing and haul-off are included and are never billed as extras. Before we leave, we check that each run moves water away from your home. If anything changes the job, we raise it before work starts, not on the invoice.
One of our recent jobs here had no trees over the roof, two stories and a clean run of gutters that had been cleaned the previous fall. The crew cleared it in one visit and the homeowner had photos of every run before we left. Another job had heavy tree cover and gutters with seed casings packed to the elbow; that one took a second pass on the outlets before the flow tested clean.
Regular cleanings, a steady gutter cleaning process and gutter maintenance keep the work short and the gutters clean, so the cleaning and maintenance you schedule now is what keeps the job small later. Get your gutters on a schedule that matches your lot, and let us know about any leak or sag you have seen so the crew can photograph it on the visit.
| 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 here book twice a year. Across Arkansas, spring visits run late April to May, after the seed and pollen drop, and our fall visits here land in November to early December, after the last leaves come down. On our jobs here, when we open a gutter in May we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into a clog at the elbow. In the fall it is leaves and needles, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that have sagged or pulled loose by the next spring. Texarkana averages 48.9 inches of precipitation a year, and May, October and December are the wettest months, so rainwater has plenty to move.
Under heavy tree cover, or near a busy road or construction, gutters fill faster, because needles and grit pack the gutter between visits. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is usually enough. Guards mean less frequent visits, but the surface still has to be clean, and a clogged run still overflows. The same rule holds for every rain gutter across Texarkana.
On a lot where the gutter system is clean and the landscape is open, the job is one visit a year and the flush is quick. Where the flush has to run long because of clogged downspouts, rot at the joints, or drainage that is not moving water away from the foundation, we flag it on the first visit. Left alone, that kind of water rots the fascia along the roofline and causes structural damage. Commercial properties on our route get the same review, but the interval is set per building.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs. Our gutter cleaning services follow that tier, and the flush keeps the gutter clear in between.
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.
We book Texarkana homes from the nearest base, and the crew covers the whole city and the surrounding areas the same way. To get a slot, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give an estimate from your stories, size and tree cover. Lead time changes with the season, and we confirm your date when we call back.
The two busiest windows on our calendar are spring and fall, so the earlier you call, the sooner the crew can come. We call before we arrive and nobody needs to be home for the work. On the visit, we look for sag, check drainage at the outlet and clear any clog or buildup before the water flow test. Gutter cleaning service on residential properties and residential and commercial work both run from the same schedule.
Once you have a date, a regular gutter cleaning visit keeps the system clean between seasons, and debris removal happens on the same visit. If you want to clean your gutters on a set schedule, ask us about the interval that fits your lot.
The number comes from your stories and your square footage, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a range, because a two-story house with heavy tree cover and a two-story house with a clean run of gutters are different jobs.
Across Arkansas, spring visits run late April to May, and here our fall visits land in November to early December. If you wait, on our jobs the spring seeds and the fall leaf mat are what we find, and a fall skip can mean sagging runs by the next spring.
Most slots come up within the week for our gutter services, and we confirm a date when you call. We do not promise same-day service.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and outlet to your phone before the truck leaves.
Yes, every outlet on your gutters and downspouts is flushed and flow tested, and we check where the water exits. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. On our jobs under guards we find needles, seed casings and grit sitting on top of the guard, and once that mat is wet the water runs off the front edge. Clearing that off the surface and reseating the guards is how we keep your gutters draining.
If a clean gutter still sheets rainwater over the edge, the cause is usually slope or outlet size, not a blockage or a clog, so another cleaning will not fix it. Send us a photo or short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning.
It should not. If we find something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree before the crew starts, and the invoice matches the quote.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
