Our own crew handles Plantation gutter cleaning and gets the gutters clean from end to end: every downspout flushed and flow-tested, the mess 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 is over the roof, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Florida, most of our customers book in the spring and fall, and we can give you a quote by phone or text today.
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 how much is packed 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, whether the gutter comes out clean in an hour or takes the afternoon. Other gutter cleaning services that price by the linear foot land in a similar place, though the per-foot method gives you less to compare against your own house.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement or sloped lot that raises the effective height of the back run, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed solid with old leaves, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can clear anything underneath. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-off are included and are never billed as extras. Every rain gutter run gets flushed and flow tested, the water flow is checked at each outlet, and every job ends with every downspout flowing and carrying water away from the house. If something changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Across Florida, the same three things drive most quotes. Plantation homes with a single story and a roof that is easy to reach come in at the low end of the range. The heavier jobs are the ones where the clog has been building for a long time, the drainage is blocked behind the leaves and debris, the clogged downspouts are pushing water back toward the foundation, and the buildup has started to sag a run away from the house, which is how structural damage starts. Both residential and commercial properties are priced the same way, by stories, size and buildup, so the number on the phone holds for both.
| 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 Florida, most customers book in the spring and fall. The spring visit falls in mid to late April, after the seed and pollen drop is finished, and the fall visit falls in November to December, after the last leaves have come down, and the calendar fills quickly in both. On our jobs, when we open a gutter in the spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. A run that looks clean from the ladder can still be packed at the elbow. In the fall it is the wet leaf mat, and heavy rainfall in June, August and September keeps that mat from drying out. Houses that skipped the fall visit tend to show a run that droops by the time the rain season picks back up.
Under heavy tree cover, Plantation homeowners are on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles, the odd twig and grit pack the outlets between visits, and the gutter stops moving water without much warning. A clog that sits long enough can start a leak at the fascia. With few or no trees, clean your gutters once a year, in November to December, and that is usually enough. A busy road or nearby construction also shortens the interval, since the grit settles into the gutter faster than leaves do. Guards cut down how often the trough fills up, but the surface still needs clearing, and the tier depends on what is on top of the guard. Between visits, a clean gutter is easy to check from the ground with a flashlight.
When we clear a gutter, we are also checking the roofline, the blockage at each downspout, and the rainwater flow to the outlet, so the estimate you get after the first visit reflects what your lot actually needs. Ask for an estimate from our gutter cleaning service by phone or text at (866) 435-6328, and we will tell you which tier fits your house. Regular gutter cleaning and maintenance on the right schedule keeps your gutters clean, stops the mess from building up into a bigger job, and keeps the water moving away from your home and the foundation. That is the point of the schedule, not the calendar itself. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot needs.
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 Plantation and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and across Florida we follow the same booking process. Start the gutter cleaning process by calling or texting us with your stories, the approximate size of the house and whether trees hang over the house. A photo of the front of the house helps us see the eave line and the gutter runs before we arrive, and it lets us give you an accurate quote the same day. Lead time depends on the calendar, and across Florida the busy windows are mid to late April and November to December, so book early if you want a particular week.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. You do not have to clear the driveway or move cars unless the runs face it. If your house has gutter guards, tell us when you call, because the guards come off and go back on. The crew handles debris removal from the first ladder to the last downspout, checks gutters and downspouts for anything that is not a cleaning problem, and leaves every run clean before sending photos to your phone. A gutter system that has been neglected for a while can take longer, and we will say so when we quote it. Our gutter services include the flush and flow test, and we flush every downspout before we leave with nothing billed afterward.
If you have residential properties or a commercial building, the same process applies, with scheduling set to the building and the number of runs. A homeowner who wants us to keep your gutters running can ask about a regular schedule of cleanings, which is the most reliable way to protect your home from water damage over time. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will book your first plantation gutter cleaning visit, and the crew will leave you a clean finish on every run you can see from the ladder.
The number comes from stories and size, and we quote it by phone or text. We do not give a figure in writing without seeing the roof, and the number we give you is the number we charge.
Across Florida, the spring visit is mid to late April, after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit is November to December, after the leaves are down. If you wait past the rainy season, the wood behind the fascia can rot and the downspout clogs harder.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call. To get your gutters on the calendar, call or text and we will name the first open day. We do not promise same-day unless the calendar actually has an opening that 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.
Yes, we flush every downspout and check that the water leaves at the outlet. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards keep out leaves, but needles, seed casings and grit still sit on top and under them, so gutter maintenance is still needed. On our jobs a guarded gutter still needs its surface cleared, just less often, and a clean trough is the sign the water is getting in.
If a clean gutter still sheets water over the edge in rain, the problem is usually slope, landscape grading or downspout size, not a buildup of leaves. Send us a photo or video 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, we tell you before work starts and you agree to it before anything is done.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
