Our own crew will clean your gutters in Hollywood FL, flush every downspout, test the flow, haul the leaves away, and send photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your square footage and how much tree cover hangs over the house, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on your invoice. Across Florida, most of our customers book in the spring and fall, when seed, pollen and leaves have built up enough to matter.
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 it 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 on our jobs the height and the amount of buildup matter more than the length of the run. Left alone, a small leak at a seam can cost more than the cleaning itself, and that is the strongest argument for regular gutter maintenance. Keeping water moving away from your home is what the whole visit is for.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a steep pitch you cannot safely walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run far up the wall, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with compacted debris, and gutter guards we have to lift and reseat before we can reach the trough. A single twig jammed in an elbow is a clog and a blockage in one, and it is the first thing the crew checks. Clearing gutters and downspouts, checking the water flow and hauling the debris away are already part of the job and are never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Across Florida, the houses we clean that carry the heaviest tree cover are the ones with the most buildup, where leaves and seeds fall into the gutter for months. Homeowners we talk to say what drives their quotes in practice: the height of the house, the number of stories, and how much has built up since the last cleaning. Repeat cleanings are usually quicker, because the buildup has not had time to set. The homeowner who sends a photo of the front of the house by text gets a faster, more accurate number, and the crew arrives knowing what to expect. Heavy rainfall in the wet months makes a clog show itself quickly, so a gutter that has not been cleaned since last season is worth booking before the next storm. If you want to get your gutters on the schedule before the rains set in, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front and we will give you a written estimate. Cleaning and maintenance is a routine cost, and it is far smaller than the cost of water entering the fascia and soffit.

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.
On our Hollywood jobs, most customers book twice a year, once after the spring seed and pollen drop and once after the last leaves in the fall. Across Florida, the spring visit usually falls in mid to late April, and the same pattern holds. In spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows and the bottom of the gutter run. In fall it is leaves and debris and the wet mat that forms over the top of each outlet before the rainy season.
In a tree-heavy landscape, we see the gutter system fill much faster, and those customers come back every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the drains, slow the drainage and build up between visits. Houses with few or no trees can usually manage once a year in late fall, and they still need a yearly check to keep them clean. Gutters with guards still need the surface cleared, though less often. A run that begins to sag holds water in the trough, and that water finds the weakest seam. Clearing the outlet keeps water away from the fascia, and ignoring a blocked outlet for a season is how water finds its way behind the rain gutter and into the structural damage we see on the worst jobs, including rot in the fascia and wet soffit boards.
Here is what the schedule looks like in practice. One customer with no trees over the house books once a year, in late fall, and the crew flushes the runs and finds them mostly clear, with leaves and grit along the back. Another customer with large trees hanging over the house is on every three to four months, because clogged downspouts fill back up within weeks of a cleaning. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and a steady schedule helps protect your home from water damage.
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 covers the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and we clean homes and buildings across Hollywood. The gutter cleaning process starts with a quote by phone or text based on stories, square footage and tree cover, and a photo of the house front if that is easy to send. The lead time varies by season, and during the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, the calendar fills first. Hollywood homes get booked in the same order as the calls come in, so the sooner you reach us, the sooner you get a date.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. If you want a visit on a specific day, tell us when you call and we will check the calendar for that window. Our gutter cleaning services in Hollywood are a regular job for us, and most customers who sign up for regular gutter cleaning keep the same date each year. Residential properties and commercial properties both run on the same booking calendar, but the scope differs by building, so we confirm the details at quote time, and residential and commercial jobs are both priced in writing. Debris removal is part of the price, and the crew leaves the ground as it found it. When you are ready to clean your gutters, call (866) 435-6328. Ask for a written estimate if you want the scope on paper before you book.
We quote our gutter services by phone or text, starting from the stories and the size of the house. We do not quote a figure without those details, because a two-story house with heavy tree cover can take a very different amount of time than one with no trees. The number you hear is the number you pay.
Most of our customers here book in the spring, after the seed and pollen drop, and again in the fall, after the leaves come down. Across Florida, late spring and late fall are when we see the most buildup in the runs. Booking twice a year is the simplest way to keep your gutters clear, and waiting longer usually means a longer visit with more buildup along the roofline. The crew clears gutters and downspouts on the same visit, so one booking covers both.
We confirm a date when you call, and most slots come up within the week. Same-day availability depends on the calendar that day, so ask when you reach us, and we will say whether a clean can happen the same week.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, the crew flushes and flow-tests each run so we can see whether water is leaving at the outlet. Clearing an underground drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it. We will tell you if the water is not draining.
Yes, guarded gutters still need the surface cleared, although less often than open gutters. On our jobs we find needles and seed casings sitting on top of the guards, and grit underneath. Once the mat is wet, rain runs off the front edge without going into the trough.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in rain usually has a slope or outlet-size problem, not a debris problem. Send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is. Rainwater that spills over a level or undersized trough is a different job from cleaning, and we do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to it before work starts. The quote you get on the phone is the price on the invoice, and that is the number we stand behind.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
