Our own crew clears gutters for homeowners here, flushes every outlet and flow-tests it, hauls the debris away, and sends you photos of every run before we leave. Every run comes out clean before the truck goes. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover is 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 the visit in the spring and fall, once the seed drop and the leaf drop are done. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote by phone or text.
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, how big it is 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 run, but the total is what matters to you, so we quote the whole house. The homeowner gets that whole-house number up front, and every quote covers the full job.
On our jobs the quote moves for four reasons. A third story or a steep roofline means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the back of the house. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted leaf mat and grit buildup that takes longer to clean. Gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add time. Flushing, flow testing and haul-off are included and are never billed as extras. If something changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Our crew has done the job on Lake Mary homes where the tree cover overhead was heavy, and on others with no trees at all, and the difference shows up in the quote more than in the square footage. Under heavy tree cover the twig and needle drop fills the downspouts faster, so the job is longer and the schedule is shorter. Tell us about the trees when you call and we price for what is actually up there. A clean run on the first visit usually makes the next one faster. Gutter maintenance is cheaper over a full year when the schedule matches the lot, and we will tell you which schedule that is after the first visit. The homeowner who gets the call before the crew arrives knows exactly what the visit will cost, and that is the whole point of the estimate. Ask for the estimate by text with a photo of the front of the house and we will come back with the number before the end of the day.
Gutter work is one piece of cleaning and maintenance on the exterior of a house, and the same crew can look at the eaves, the outlets and the splash blocks while they are up. Our gutter services stop at cleaning, flushing and inspection. If the crew finds a leak at a seam or a loose run, it goes in the photo report, and that part of the decision stays with you.
| 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 customers here book twice a year: once after the seed and pollen drop in spring, and once after the last leaves are down in late fall, before the rains slow. Across Florida the same two windows hold, and the wettest stretch of summer brings heavy rainfall that adds weight to the gutter system while the leaf load settles in the fall.
In spring we open a gutter and find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the bends at the bottom of each run. In fall it is the leaves and debris, a wet mat thick enough to hold water against the back of the trough. On houses that skipped the fall visit the runs that sag are usually the ones that held that wet mat through the rainy season, and the drainage is slowest at the far corner, where a blockage holds the water back. Left alone, that mat can cause structural damage and rot in the fascia.
Under heavy tree cover, with big trees hanging over the house and mulch beds in the landscape below, our customers are on a schedule of several times a year, because needles and grit pack the outlets between visits. With few or no trees, you can clean your gutters once a year in late fall, and that is usually enough. Near a busy road or a construction site the grit gets into the trough faster, and the schedule shortens for the same reason. Guards, when a home has them, mean fewer cleanings but the surface still needs clearing.
When we open a gutter during the spring visit we find the same thing most customers never see: the rain gutter is clean at the front and full of seed casings at the back, because the water runs toward the low end and the mess follows it. That is why the flush matters as much as the scoop. A run cleared by hand and not flushed will clog again at the first heavy rainfall. We flush every outlet and watch the water come out the bottom before we call the run done, because clogged downspouts are what turns a clean run into an overflow. That is the whole gutter cleaning process, and the photos are the last thing we do before we leave.
After the first visit we tell you which schedule your lot needs to keep your gutters clear, and we put it in writing so you can plan the year around it. Keeping the runs clear keeps water away from your home and 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 provides cleaning services in Lake Mary FL homes and the surrounding areas, and we keep a regular route here so the schedule stays predictable. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text at (866) 435-6328: tell us the stories, roughly how big the house is, and whether trees hang over the house. A photo of the front of the house helps us see the eaves and the outlets before we arrive.
Lead time depends on the week, so we give you a date when you call rather than promising one we cannot keep. The two busiest windows are spring and fall, when most of our customers here want the visit at the same time, and the calendar fills faster then. Book early in those seasons if you want a specific day, and get your gutters on the calendar before the rush.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the work. The crew stays outside and sends photos of every run before the truck leaves. We clean residential properties and commercial properties on the same crew schedule, so a call on a weekday can be arranged to fit around the rest of the route. Debris removal is part of every visit, not an add-on, and our gutter cleaning services cover the whole house. Regular gutter cleaning keeps the system clear between the big visits, and most homeowners find it simpler to book the whole year at once.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and what is in the gutters, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure from the street, because two-story houses vary a lot depending on the tree cover and the lot. Tell us those three things and you get the exact price, not an estimate, before anyone climbs a ladder.
Our customers here book in late spring, after the seed and pollen drop, and again in late fall, after the leaves are down. If you wait past the fall visit, the wet leaf mat from the rainy season is what we find, and it is what makes a run clog and pull loose by spring.
Same-day slots depend on the week and the route, so we confirm a date when you call. Most slots come up within the week, and we will tell you the earliest day we can get to your house.
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. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Once the crew is done, the outside is clean and you have the photos to check.
Yes, we flush the gutters and downspouts and watch the water come out the bottom. Where a drain feeds an underground line we check that water is leaving at the outlet. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes, guarded gutters still need cleaning, though less often. Needles and seed casings sit on top of the guard and the mat that forms there blocks water from getting in, so we clear the surface, flush the runs and reseat the guards.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in the rain has a slope or drain 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. 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 before work starts, and the invoice matches the number we quoted by phone or text.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
