Your gutters are clogged. Bay Area winter rain is coming, and water's already pooling in spots you can see from.
Oakland gets about 23 inches of rain a year, and most of it comes between November and March. When that rain hits hard and fast, your gutters are the only thing standing between your roof, siding, foundation, and water damage. Clogged gutters don't drain. They overflow. Water pools against your fascia and rots it out. It runs down your siding and finds cracks. It pools at your foundation and floods your basement. A gutter cleaning service isn't optional in the Oakland metro area—it's maintenance that saves you thousands in repair bills.
Here's the problem: leaves, twigs, dirt, and debris pile up in your gutters over months. You don't see it happening until you're standing on a ladder looking down at trash that's been sitting there since last summer. Bay-area wind and fog moisture mean debris accumulates fast, and the long dry summers followed by sudden heavy rain make the problem worse. When November comes and the rain starts, clogged gutters can't handle it. Water overflows. Downspouts get blocked. Your home pays the price.
That's why we clean gutters in Oakland the way they should be cleaned—by hand, one house at a time, with someone who knows what they're looking at. We get the trash out, we check your downspouts, we inspect your gutters for damage, and we make sure water flows the way it's supposed to. It's not complicated work, but it matters. And it needs to happen at least once a year, more if you've got trees hanging over your roof.
We clear every inch of gutter by hand. Leaves, twigs, shingle grit, and packed sludge get bagged and hauled away. No leaf blowers on the roof, no mess in the yard.
Every downspout gets flushed with water to clear blockages at elbows and underground connections. If it's clogged, we snake it until the flow runs clean.
While we're up there, we check for sagging sections, loose hangers, cracked seams, and fascia rot. You get a written note of anything that needs attention before it turns into a bigger problem.
Tarps go down before we start. When we're done, the beds, walkways, and driveway look the same as when we arrived. We haul everything away — nothing left behind.
Tell us your address and how long it's been since the last cleaning. We'll give you a ballpark over the phone and schedule a visit.
We look at the gutter footage, number of stories, tree cover, and access. You get a flat written price before any work starts.
Hand clearing, downspout flushing, and a damage check. Tarps down, debris bagged, property cleaned up when we leave.

We clean gutters across Oakland and the surrounding communities. Whether you're in the hills, near Lake Merritt, or out toward the flatlands, we've got crews working in your neighborhood. Oakland gets most of its rain between November and March, and that concentrated wet season means gutters fill up fast with debris. We know the local conditions—the bay wind that pushes leaves and twigs into your gutters, the long dry summers that let trash accumulate, and the sudden heavy downpours that test whether your system can actually handle the water.
