Our own crew cleans gutters here, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, leaves hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Our customers usually book in the spring and fall, and we have been doing that work with the same crew for years.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
For homeowners here, the price depends on stories, square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. Each homeowner gets the same three questions before we quote, and the quote comes over the phone or by text from those answers. The number we quote is the number we charge. Some gutter cleaning services price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place per run, but we quote the whole house so you can compare one number to another. Commercial properties get the same three questions, so a quote for one lines up with a quote for the other.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are consistent. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and more equipment. A walk-out basement puts the back run far up from the ground. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out heavy with compacted muck, and guards we have to lift and reseat add time. Our gutter cleaning process starts with a flush: we flush every downspout and watch where the water goes, and a run that flushes clean is the quickest job we do. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. Anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is what we have seen drive quotes on Port Orange homes. One house had a rain gutter packed with leaves and debris over a steep two-story roof, and the clog had been pulling water away from the fascia board until the sag was visible from the yard. Left alone, that water flow problem can cause structural damage to the fascia and soffit. Another had lighter buildup and a simple flush job, with no drainage problem to chase, and it came out clean after one pass. Both were quoted by the same three questions and both invoices matched the phone quote. If your gutters are sagging, water is coming over the edge, or clogged downspouts need attention, tell us when you call so the crew brings the right gear.
| 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, the spring visit falls in mid to late April, after seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit runs November to December, after the last leaves fall. Most of our Port Orange FL customers book both. Port Orange gets about 51.7 inches of rain a year, and its wettest months are July, August and September, so heavy rainfall is when a neglected gutter gets tested first. A clean gutter can still be full by the first heavy storm of the season.
On the spring visit we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows. Rainwater has nowhere to go past a blockage like that, so the blockage is the first thing the crew clears. On the fall visit it is the wet leaf mat along the roofline, and on houses that skipped that visit we see runs pulling loose by the time the rain comes back. Regular gutter cleaning is usually cheaper than the repair that follows a sagging run. Clean your gutters before the rain, not after the fascia starts to rot.
On residential properties with a lot of tree cover in the landscape, the gutters fill faster between visits, and we see those lots every three to four months. A home with few or no trees usually needs one visit a year, in November or December across Florida. Guarded gutters need less frequent gutter maintenance, though the surface still gets cleared. The rule of thumb is simple: the more leaves and twigs in the gutters, the sooner you should clean them. A clean run is easier to inspect, so the crew checks the fascia at the same time.
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 has worked across Port Orange, and we cover surrounding areas from the nearest base. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text from your stories, your home's size and whether trees hang over the roof. A photo of the front of the house helps us see the setup, and it is easy to send from your phone. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. Port Orange gutter cleaning is quoted the same way for residential and commercial buildings, so every gutter cleaning service call is priced on the same three questions. Calendar space runs tight during the two busy windows each year, so call early in those months at (866) 435-6328 to get your gutters on a date you want. Our gutter services include a check on gutter guards, and once the runs are clean, the crew reseats the guards and helps you keep your gutters clean after that. If you want to protect your home from water damage before the rainy season, book the visit now. A small leak at a seam is cheaper to catch on a clean run than after the fascia rots.
The number comes from the stories, the size and what is in the gutters, and we give an estimate by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text. We do not guess on the spot. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
Across Florida, the usual windows are mid to late April and November to December, and most of our customers book cleanings in those two windows. Waiting until heavy rainfall is when a clog shows up as water spilling over the edge instead of moving away from your home.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the exact date when you call. If you need a clean date before a storm, tell us on the phone and we will check the calendar.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside on gutters and downspouts, 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, we flush every downspout and watch until the water runs clear at the bottom. If a line drains underground and we cannot confirm the flow, we tell you, and clearing a buried line is a separate job quoted before anyone starts.
Yes. A gutter system with guards still collects needles, seed casings and grit on top, so it still needs cleaning and maintenance. We lift the panels, clean underneath, flush every downspout and reseat the guards.
Send us a short video of the overflow in the rain. A clean gutter that still spills has a slope or downspout problem, not a cleaning problem, and we tell you that plainly rather than sell a second cleaning.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before they start. The price on the phone is the price on the invoice, and the photos of every clean run come with it.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
