Our own crew cleans every rain gutter on your house, with every downspout flushed and flow-tested, leaves bagged and hauled off, 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 hangs over the roof, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most customers book in spring and fall, and we can give you a date once we know your roofline.
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 in the gutters. Each gutter cleaning service is quoted 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, though a per-foot figure hides how the work actually goes on a given house.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are predictable. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement or sloped lot raises the effective height of the back run. A gutter system that has not been opened in years comes down packed solid with leaves and takes more time to clear, and guards we have to lift and reseat add steps. Flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. If something changes the job, we raise it before work starts, never on the invoice.
A clog in the runs is the usual cause of the overflow we get called about most. Once the buildup is cleared and the water flow is checked to the outlet, most runs drain the way they were built to. Where a run still sags or drains badly after a clean, we say so in the report rather than sell a second visit. Leaves, debris and the odd twig from a neighboring tree can fall into a run that looked clean last month, which is why the quote asks about tree cover.
Pace homes with one story and Pace homeowners with three get the same quote method, and commercial properties are quoted per building on the same basis. We also do residential and commercial gutter cleaning services for owners who want one crew for both. Any gutter that shows structural damage, a pulled hanger, a split seam or a leak is photographed and reported, not repaired by us.
A pace gutter cleaning estimate is written up after you describe the house, and we will confirm it before anyone climbs. The water away from the foundation is the point of the visit, and the quote covers the full run.
| 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 book two cleanings a year, once in spring and once in fall, since that is when the gutter has taken the most load. In spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In fall it is the leaf load, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that sag or pull loose by the next season. Pace FL gets 67.8 inches of rain a year, and heavy rainfall comes mostly in June, July and August, the wettest months. A gutter clogged at the start of that stretch holds rainwater against the fascia until it overflows and the board starts to rot.
Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the outlets between visits. Few or no trees, once a year in late fall is usually enough. Gutter guards still need the surface cleared, and we see less grit under them, but the mat still forms on top of the guard, so the schedule drops only a little.
Across Florida, the spring visit lands in mid to late April, when we find the spring drop. In Pace, the fall visit runs December to early January, when we find the fall leaves and the wet mat under them. Every visit includes a flow check on each downspout, and a blockage that shows up between visits is usually the same clog coming back. Regular gutter cleaning on that schedule keeps the house dry and the drainage working, and it costs less than a repair crew after the water has already got in.
Residential and commercial buildings follow the same logic, with commercial sites scheduled by building. Cleaning and maintenance on commercial sites is booked per building, and our crews keep residential properties and commercial sites on separate calendars so a booking is never missed.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and we put the next date on the calendar before we leave. Call (866) 435-6328 to set it.
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.
We clean gutters and downspouts across Pace from the nearest base, and the route is planned so no street is skipped. Start with a call to (866) 435-6328, or text us the stories, size and tree cover; a photo of the house front helps if it is easy to send. Lead time depends on the week, and we will tell you the first open date when you call. The gutter cleaning process is walked through before anyone books. We call before we come, leave every run clean, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, when the gutters have the most leaves to clear. Book early in those months and you keep your choice of date. Outside them, slots open more easily, and a homeowner with a small lot can often get a visit the same week.
The point of the visit is to protect your home from water damage, not to make the gutter look clean. Keep your gutters clear and the water leaves at the outlet, away from your home. We flush every downspout and check the outlet before we leave, and the photos go to your phone. The landscape beside the house is left as it was found, and for residential and commercial customers in the surrounding areas we keep the same standard on every site.
Gutter services and cleaning services in Pace are booked the same way whether it is a single house or a multi-building site. Ask for a written estimate and tell us which of the surrounding areas you are in, and we will confirm the crew and the date.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it by phone or text. There is no figure we print in advance, because the quote has to reflect the actual house and what is sitting in the runs. The number we give is the number on the invoice.
Our customers book in late spring and late fall, after the seed and pollen drop and after the last leaves. If the gutters go into the wet season full, the rainwater backs up behind the fascia and the buildup gets harder to clear. Most houses do fine on that twice-a-year schedule, so get your gutters on the calendar before the wet months.
Same-day depends on the week and the crew's route, so we confirm the date when you call. Most slots come up within the week, and we will tell you the first open day.
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 in while the ladders are up.
Yes, every downspout is flushed and the water flow is checked at the outlet. If a run drains into an underground line, we check that water is leaving and tell you if it is not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards keep leaves out, but the needles, seed casings and grit sit on top and then turn into a wet mat that runs over the front edge. On our jobs the buildup under guards is lighter, but gutter maintenance still means clearing the surface, so the schedule drops only a little.
A gutter that is clean and still overflowing usually has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a cleaning problem. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Only if something on site changes the job, and then you hear it before work starts, not on the invoice. The quote covers the full run, the flushing and the haul-off, so the number on the phone is the number we charge.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
