Our own crew cleans gutters in Greenwood Village, every run flushed and flow-tested, haul-off included, and photos of the whole job before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover hangs over the house, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our Greenwood Village customers book in spring and fall, and we have been working these houses for years.
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 sitting in the gutters. Our gutter cleaning services are quoted over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Commercial properties get the same approach. Other companies price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the run is measured, but we would rather give you one number for the whole house.
On our jobs, a third story or a steep pitch too high to walk takes longer and needs more equipment, so the quote goes up. A walk-out basement or sloped lot raises the effective height of the back of the house. Gutters that have not been opened in years come down packed with old buildup, and that takes far more hours than a light fall cleaning. A clean gutter from the start takes less time. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too. Flushing, flow testing and haul-off are included and never billed as extras. If anything changes the job once we are on site, you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is what we have seen drive quotes for Greenwood Village homes. Each homeowner gets the same breakdown before work starts. On one job the gutter run over the north side had a clog where the leaves and debris had packed into the elbow, and the flush showed water away from the house only after we cleared it by hand. The drainage on that side was slow, and the sag in one section had started to pull the hanger loose. We photographed it, reported it, and quoted the extra time up front. A rain gutter full of wet leaves and grit is where clogged downspouts start, and when the water flow stops, rainwater backs up and structural damage follows. You can see that job here: Greenwood Village case.
When you call us, tell us the number of stories, the rough square footage, and whether trees hang over the house. Text us a photo of the front of the house if that is easier. We will give you the number, and the crew will arrive ready to do that exact job.
| 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 of our Greenwood Village CO customers book twice a year, in spring and fall: once in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in fall after the last leaves come down. That is the calendar we see on our own jobs, and it holds for most houses here. The same calendar holds for residential and commercial properties, and most residential properties we see follow it, with the goal of a clean trough going into winter.
In spring, the seeds, seed casings and pollen paste build up in the gutter and the bend at the foot of each drain pipe. In fall, the leaf load is the problem. If we open a gutter here in May, the rain gutter is usually full of material that has been sitting since the last fall, and that is where a clog starts. If we open one in early November, the wet leaf mat is two inches deep in places, and every drain pipe probably has a blockage. The wettest months here are April, May and July, so heavy rainfall in those months is when a blocked run shows first. Once rainwater cannot get past a clog, it runs over the edge instead of down the drain pipe. On houses that skipped the fall visit, we have found runs by March that sagged under the weight of ice, and at the eave the water had nowhere to go.
Under heavy tree cover, with big trees over the roof, our customers keep to regular cleaning every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the runs between visits and the roofline never really stays clear. Debris removal at each visit keeps the trough moving. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is enough for most lots. Gutter guards need less frequent cleaning, but the surface still has to be kept clean, because grit and seeds sit on top of the guard and the water never gets in.
Here is how the schedule plays out on two real jobs. One customer has no trees over the house and books once a year in late fall. The other has heavy shade and is on the every three to four month schedule, which keeps the runs from blocking between visits. You can read both: lower-tree case and heavy-tree case.
After the first visit, we will tell you how often you should clean your gutters on your lot, and why. Our gutter cleaning service books by phone, so call (866) 435-6328 to pick a date, or text us a photo of the front of the house and we will give you an estimate.
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 Greenwood Village and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, so you are not waiting on a crew from across the metro. Our process starts with a call or text: we ask for stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the house front if it is easy to send. We quote the number, you confirm a date, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for the visit. Every Greenwood Village gutter cleaning visit also checks gutters and downspouts for a leak at a seam or a loose hanger, and the crew clears any twig or needle caught in the trough before the flush.
Our cleanings fill during the two busy windows each year, spring and fall, so book early if you want a particular week. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the house to get your gutters on the list. We keep your gutters clean on a schedule, flush every downspout, and give you photos of the work, so you know the water is going away from your home and not sitting in the trough. Houses with gutter guards get the same flush and the same photos, with the guards lifted and reseated. Our gutter services exist to protect your home from water damage, and a full trough is how that damage starts.
The number comes from your stories and size, and we give it by phone or text. Our cleaning services in Greenwood Village are priced this way. We will ask about tree cover too, since heavy shade means more buildup. Once we have those three things, you get a clean number: the price we charge, with flushing and haul-off already included.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. If you wait past the fall leaves, the wet leaf mat often blocks every drain pipe and can start ice damage at the eave once the first hard freeze arrives. A spring visit clears the seeds and pollen before they settle into the elbows.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the exact date when you call. If a slot opens early, we will tell you on the phone.
No. On residential properties our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and drain pipe to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, we flush each drain pipe with water and watch it run clear at the bottom. Where a drain pipe feeds an underground line, we check that water is leaving at the outlet and tell you if it is not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards keep leaves out, but gutter maintenance is still needed, and on a guarded system the cleaning and maintenance is a different job. On our jobs we find seeds, needles and grit sitting on top of the guard and pasted down by rain. Water runs off the front edge instead of going in. If the house sits under big trees in a mature landscape, expect the guards to need more attention. We lift the panels, clear underneath, leave the trough clean, flush each drain pipe and reseat the guards.
If a clean gutter still spills water over the edge in rain, the problem is slope, capacity or drain pipe size, not what is in the trough. Send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it actually is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem. Left alone, that spill can rot the fascia board behind the gutter, so do not wait on it.
It should not. If something changes the job once we are on site, we raise it before any work starts and you agree to it. Our gutter cleaning process starts with the crew looking over the whole gutter system, so the number you were quoted is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
