Our own crew cleans gutters in Superior, with every drain run flushed and flow-tested, the leaves hauled off and the gutters left clean, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is overhead, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our customers book in spring and fall, and we have been doing this work on local jobs long enough to know what each visit turns up.
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. We quote our gutter cleaning services over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Other companies price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the length is known, but we would rather give you one figure for the whole house than make you multiply.
On Superior homes, the things that move the quote are the same every time. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk, means the crew works from a boom or scissor lift, and that is more setup. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises how high the gutter sits off the ground, so the back run is farther up than it looks from the yard. Gutters nobody has opened in years come down packed with compacted debris, which takes longer to clean out than a normal season's load. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too. Flushing the drains, flow testing and hauling away what we pull out are included and never billed as extras. If anything we find changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is what that looks like on a real job. On one of our visits the gutters were packed with leaves and the drop pipes were clogged at the elbow, so the crew flushed every run until it ran clean at the bottom and reported the one run that would not drain. The quote was set before we climbed up, and it did not change once the crew was up the ladder. Heavy buildup and clogged downspouts are the two things that cause the most trouble for a home here, because water that cannot get away from the house sits against the fascia and the foundation and causes structural damage over time.
Residential and commercial properties both collect the same kinds of leaves and grit, but a house with a clean gutter system and good drainage is the goal. Keeping leaves and debris out of the trough is what keeps the runs from sagging, and keeping the outlets open is what keeps water away from your home. That is the work we do, and the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
| 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.
Across Colorado, the spring visit falls in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop. Most of our Superior customers also book a spring and fall visit, with the fall one in October or early November, after the last leaves are down. In spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the drop pipe elbows. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs sag under the first ice by March, and the fascia at the roofline can start to rot before anyone notices.
Near a busy road or a construction site, the grit settles into the runs faster, so those lots tend to need a visit more often than a quiet street. Gutter guards, if you have them, do not remove the need for a visit. They reduce how often the trough fills, but the surface still has to be kept clean and the drains still have to be checked for a blockage. Residential properties with guards need a gutter cleaning service on the same kind of schedule, because the mat and every twig on top do not clear themselves. Freeze and thaw cycles here make a rain gutter clog worse, and water sitting in a packed trough finds every weak seam and turns it into a leak.
After the first visit we give you an estimate and tell you which of those schedules your lot actually needs, based on what we found in the gutters. Once we know the trees and the gutter run, the calendar follows from the house itself and not from a generic rule, and a regular gutter cleaning on that schedule, with debris removal included, keeps the trough clean and clear before the next rain.
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 gutter services reach Superior CO and the surrounding areas, and we have cleaned gutters for homeowners in several of its neighborhoods. Booking cleaning services in Superior is simple. Call or text the number, tell us the stories, the approximate size of the house, whether big trees hang over the roof and whether a twig or a seed pod ever lands in the trough, and send a photo of the front of the house if that is easy. Debris removal is part of every quote, so the number we give you covers the haul-off too. We give you a quote from those details, and if the number works for you we set a date.
Lead time changes with the season. Across Colorado, hail season along the Front Range dents gutters and washes shingle grit into the runs. Our calendar fills in the busy windows of late spring and early fall, when seeds and leaves are heaviest, so booking early in those months keeps you from waiting. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. If you want us to clean your gutters before the next heavy rainfall, book the visit ahead of time, and regular cleanings keep the gutter system clear.
We are here to help you keep your gutters and downspouts working, and every visit ends with photos of each run so you can see what we did. We flush every downspout first, and the photos show the result. Whether you are a first-time homeowner or keeping a regular schedule, the aim is the same: protect your home from water damage with a gutter system that is clear and draining. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the gutters and we will tell you the price to get your gutters running clear.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and how much grit and leaf mat is in the gutters. Call or text us with those details and we will give you a figure before the crew comes out. The quote does not change once we are on the job.
Across Colorado, the spring visit falls in late May to June, and most of our customers also book in October or early November. If you wait past the first hard freeze, the leaf mat and ice can lock grit into the runs and make the job longer.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call (866) 435-6328. Same-day visits depend on the calendar, so ask us what we have open when you book.
No, you do not need to be home. The gutter cleaning process happens outside, the crew does not come inside, and photos of every run and drain pipe go to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. The yard is left clean when we drive off.
Yes, we flush every downspout and check that water is leaving at the outlet. If a drain pipe feeds an underground line and water is not coming out, we tell you. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. On our jobs we find needles and seed casings sitting on top of the guard and fine grit underneath, so the surface still has to be cleared. Guards reduce how often the trough fills, but they do not replace gutter maintenance. Cleaning and maintenance on a guarded system still means a visit, just a less frequent one.
If a gutter is clean and still sends water over the edge in the rain, the problem is usually the slope or the size of the downspout, or a landscape that sends water back toward the foundation, not a clog. Left alone, that water can make the fascia rot. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
No. The quote is set from the stories, size and buildup we discussed before the visit. If we find something that changes the job, we tell you and agree on it before work starts, never after.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
