Our own crew will clean gutters in Port St. John, flushing every outlet, checking that each one runs clear, hauling the debris away and sending photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give on the phone is the number on your invoice. Most of our customers book in the spring and fall, and that is when our calendar fills.
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, its square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. We quote it by phone or text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Some companies price gutter cleaning services by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place, but we would rather give you one figure for the whole house.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run well up in the air, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with buildup, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can clean underneath. Flushing every outlet, checking water flow, and hauling away the leaves and debris are included and are never billed as extras. If something changes the job once we are on site, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
On our Port St. John jobs, the homes that cost more to clean are the ones with heavy leaf and seed loads, where the crew spends the extra time on the clogged downspouts, clearing each one until water can leave. Port St. John homes with a single story and light tree cover tend to sit at the simple end of the range. Commercial properties are quoted per building, so a multi-building site is priced on what each building needs. Good drainage, with water away from the foundation, is the goal, because standing water left at the eave can leak into the fascia and lead to structural damage, and the quote is built around getting there.
The first step is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house. We will tell you what the quote covers before we book a date.
| 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.
Our Port St. John FL customers, like most across Florida, book twice a year: in mid to late April after the seeds and pollen drop, and in November to December after the last leaves come down. In spring we find seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that have sagged under the weight by the time the heavy rainfall returns.
Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the rhythm we see work, because needles and grit pack the elbows and drops between visits. A single clog at the joint can start a leak, and the landscape beds below the eave take the overflow. Gutter guards extend the time between cleanings, but the surface still needs clearing, and a clean gutter starts the season right. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is enough. Watch for rainwater running over the front edge of the roofline during a storm; that is a blockage, and the estimate for clearing it, debris removal included, is worth getting before the next rain.
Our gutter cleaning service is booked around those two visits. Once we see the first visit, we tell you which tier your lot actually needs and whether you need to clean your gutters every season or once a year. Cleaning and maintenance on our schedule follow a regular gutter cleaning rhythm, not a one-time job, and we keep the record of each visit so the next one is planned from what we found last 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.
Port St. John gutter cleaning covers the surrounding areas too, and we work across Port St. John from the nearest base. The gutter cleaning process starts with a quote by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text, using stories, size and tree cover, plus a photo of the house front if that is easy for you. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit, so the only thing you have to do is leave the side gate unlocked.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, so it is worth calling early in those months. Outside those windows slots open up faster. Whichever month you choose, we will confirm the date on the phone and send a reminder before the crew arrives. Port St. John homeowners who book us regularly keep their gutters working through the wet season, and that helps protect your home from water damage at the roofline and foundation.
We clean gutters and downspouts on residential properties and commercial buildings alike. Our residential and commercial gutter services are booked around what each building needs. Even if you are a homeowner who is not sure how often you should clean your gutters, call us and we will look at the lot and tell you. Keep your gutters clean and working, flush every downspout before the rain season, and you will not be calling us on a stormy night.
Cleaning services in Port St. John start with a number from stories and size, given by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without knowing how many stories the house has and roughly how big it is. Once we have that, you have the number before you book.
Across Florida, most customers book in mid to late April and again in November to December. Clean your gutters before the heavy rainfall arrives, because waiting past the rainy season is when we find runs that have started to sag or pull loose. Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the rhythm we see work.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call. We do not promise same-day service, because the calendar fills in spring and fall. If you want to get your gutters done before a storm, call early and we will give you a date we can keep.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run to your phone before the truck leaves. The leaves go in the truck, away from your home. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, we flush every outlet and check that water leaves at the end of the pipe. Where a pipe feeds an underground drain line, we tell you if water is not leaving. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards keep out leaves, but on our jobs we still find needles, a twig or two, seed casings and grit sitting on top of the guard and matting once it is wet. The guard is part of the gutter system, so we clear the surface, run water through every outlet and reseat the guards.
A clean gutter that still spills water over the edge in a storm usually has a slope or drain-size problem, not a blockage. A clog further down the downspout can look the same from the ground, so a photo helps us tell them apart. A rain gutter that keeps spilling can also cause structural damage and rot in the fascia over time. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope issue.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, we stop, tell you what it is and agree on the change before we start again. The invoice matches the quote, whether it is a simple gutter maintenance visit or a bigger job.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
