Our own crew cleans gutters across Rockledge FL, and we flush every downspout and flow-test it before we leave. Leaves and debris go in bags and off the property, and you get photos of every run so you can see the clean result. The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, 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, when seed drop and the last leaves have finished coming down.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
Gutter cleaning services are priced from stories, square footage 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. A clean gutter is quick to walk, and clogged downspouts take longer to clear. Companies that price by the linear foot tend to land in a similar place per foot, but the stories and the state of the rain gutter usually matter more than the length of the run.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time and more equipment. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline, so the back run sits farther up than it looks from the yard. A gutter system nobody has opened in years comes down packed solid with old buildup, and gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add a step to every run. Once the run is clean, checking the water flow is quick. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-off are included and never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Rockledge homes show the same few problems again and again: a sag where the run has pulled off its hangers, a buildup of seeds and grit at the elbow, and a clog that stops drainage at the first bend. A sagging run also opens a leak at the joint, and that water finds the fascia. When that water has nowhere to go, it runs over the edge and finds its way toward the foundation, which is how structural damage starts. Wood left wet that way begins to rot long before the gutter looks broken. Clearing the clog is the job. Whatever you do with the rest of the house, a clean run carries water away from your home the way it was built to.
Our crew handles residential and commercial properties alike, billed per building on a schedule. A two-story office or a strip of storefronts asks the same questions as a house: how high the roofline is, how much material has collected since the last visit, and whether the downspout still carries water away. Where we have cleaned a case, we link to it below so you can see what the job looked like.
| 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 Rockledge customers book two cleanings a year, once in the spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in the fall after the last leaves come down. Across Florida, spring visits run mid to late April and fall visits run November to December. When we open a gutter in April, we find seeds, seed casings and a pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. Clean your gutters on that schedule and the wet leaf mat never gets the chance to hold water against the fascia.
Under heavy tree cover, or near a busy road or a construction site, we see gutters every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspout between visits, and a single twig can plug a downspout elbow. A lot with few or no trees usually needs only one regular gutter cleaning a year, in late fall. A clean gutter in late fall gives the rainy season nowhere to stall. Gutter guards, where they are installed, need less frequent cleaning, but the surface still has to be cleared, since a wet mat on top of the guard will still send water over the edge.
Across Florida, hurricane season brings heavy rainfall, and Rockledge gets about 53.5 inches of rain a year, with June, August and September the wettest months. Rockledge homes take that rain hard, and a gutter that stops moving rainwater can overflow in a single afternoon storm. Those are the moments when a blockage shows itself: a run that suddenly pours down the wall instead of into the downspout, or a corner that floods the mulch bed next to the landscape. Keeping the run clean between visits is what stops that. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the next date, and we will talk through the estimate for a regular schedule. Once we have seen the house, we tell you which tier your lot needs, and we put the next date on the calendar before the truck leaves.
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.

Our crew provides gutter services across Rockledge and works out of the nearest base, so the calendar is set by the route, not by the neighborhood. Our gutter cleaning service also covers surrounding areas on the same route. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a quote from the number of stories, the approximate size and whether trees hang over the roof. Rockledge homeowners often ask one thing first: when can the crew come? Lead time depends on the week, and we confirm the date when we speak with you. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit.
Two stretches of the year fill the calendar faster than the rest, late spring and late fall, when customers want a clean run after the seeds and after the leaves. Rockledge gutter cleaning slots go quickly in those windows, and residential properties fill up alongside commercial buildings. If you want a slot in those windows, it helps to ask early. Booking ahead helps you get your gutters on the calendar before another season goes by without a flush.
Every homeowner who calls wants the same result: a clean run, a downspout that moves water away, and a way to protect your home from water damage. We keep the job narrow so the work is done properly. We clean the gutters and downspouts, flush every outlet, and check the surface for anything that needs attention, then report it. Debris removal comes with the job, not as an add-on. Cleaning and maintenance go together: a flush in spring and a look after heavy rainfall keeps the run working. If you want to keep your gutters working between visits, that is the whole plan.
Cleaning services in Rockledge are priced from the number of stories and size, and we give you that number by phone or text before anything is booked. The quote we give is the one we charge.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and late fall, and that rhythm keeps the whole gutter system working for most lots. If you wait past the fall leaf drop, the wet mat is harder to clear and sits longer against the fascia, where wood rot can start.
Lead time depends on the week. We confirm a date when you call, and the gutter cleaning process runs on that date.
No. We work outside, do not come inside, and send 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 check that water leaves at the outlet, away from your home and clear of the landscape beds. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone starts it.
Yes. Gutter guards keep leaves out, but not seeds, needles or grit, and that material sits on top of the guard until rain pushes it over the edge. We clean the surface and check the flow under the guard.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge usually has a slope or downspout-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.
It should not. If we find something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to it before the crew starts, never on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
