Our own crew cleans gutters in West Park, flushing every downspout and checking that it flows, 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 you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our customers book a visit in the spring and another in the fall, and we keep the same crew on the ladder for both.
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 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 for a clean, finished job. Some companies price gutter cleaning services by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the run count is added up. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a firm number before we book a date.
On our jobs, a few things push a quote up. A third story or a roof too steep to walk means a boom or scissor lift and more time on the platform. A walk-out basement or a sloped landscape puts the back run further above grade than it looks from the driveway. Gutters that nobody has opened in years hold compacted leaf mat, and getting them clean takes longer by hand. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time at both ends of the job. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. If the fascia behind the run is soft with rot, we show you before we touch anything else. If anything we find changes the job, you hear it before work starts, not on the invoice.
Most of our work in West Park homes is for homeowners, with a steady number of residential and commercial properties on the same routes. Heavy tree cover is the single biggest cause of repeat blockages we see on residential properties, because leaves and debris pack the elbows and the drainage path between visits. For commercial gutter services, the same logic applies to flat roof drains, which back up quietly and show first as a stain on a ceiling tile. A roof drain kept clean costs far less than the ceiling it saves. Each gutter system we open starts with the same question: how much is packed into it right now, and where is the buildup. Ask for a written estimate and we will answer that question in writing for your building.
| 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 West Park customers book two cleanings a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. Across Florida, the spring visit lands in mid to late April, after the seeds and pollen drop, and that is when we usually find seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. The fall visit, November to December, finds a wet leaf mat that holds water against the fascia until rainwater runs over the lip. On houses that skipped the fall visit, we see gutters that sag by spring, especially after heavy rainfall. A twig wedged in an elbow is enough to start a clog, and a clog left through a storm can rot the fascia behind it. Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the rhythm our customers settle into, because needles and grit fill the gutters and downspouts between visits. With few or no trees, one visit a year in November or December is usually enough to keep the water moving. Even with gutter guards, the surface still needs clearing, so a gutter system with guards is a lighter visit, not a skipped one. On every visit we flush every downspout and check the water flow at the outlet, because an open outlet is what keeps a rain gutter from overflowing. Regular gutter cleaning on a set schedule is how you keep your gutters flowing through the season. Our gutter services start with that same schedule and adjust from there. Start the year with a clean trough. A roofline that is clean and drains properly is what keeps a blockage from turning into a leak. Whether you clean your gutters yourself or book a crew, the spring visit is the one not to skip. Our first visit tells you which tier your lot actually needs, so you are not guessing at the interval. Ask for a quote and we will tell you which schedule fits the house, and if you want the next visit on the calendar, book a date when you call.
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 West Park and surrounding areas from the nearest base, and we book a slot the same way for every house. Our gutter cleaning process starts with a quote by phone or text from stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the house front helps if it is easy to send. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you what is open. Our busy windows fill up in the spring and fall, when most customers book the same routine visit. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the job. If you are looking for a clean, same-week slot, ask when you call. A West Park gutter cleaning is one call from start to finish. For West Park homeowners who have been putting off a gutter maintenance visit, the easiest path is to get your gutters on a schedule and let the crew handle the rest. Keeping the trough clean helps protect your home from water damage, and a visit that covers cleaning and maintenance keeps water away from your home.
The number comes from stories, size and what is in the gutters, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a range without those three details. Once we have them, the number we give is the number we charge.
Most of our West Park homeowners book in the spring and in the fall. Across Florida the spring visit lands in mid to late April and the fall visit in November to December. If you wait past the fall visit, we usually find sagging runs and a heavier mat of leaves and debris by the time we get out there. Those two visits catch most of it before it packs in.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. We do not promise same-day service, because the crew schedule fills up in the busy windows.
No, as a homeowner 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 for a clean walk-in, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, every downspout is flushed and checked for flow at the outlet, because clogged downspouts are a common reason water backs up. Where a downspout feeds an underground drain line, we check whether 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, they still need the surface cleared and the outlets checked. Under guards we often find needles, seed casings and grit sitting on the mesh, and once it is wet, water runs over the front edge. A guarded gutter that is clean underneath still needs its outlets checked. Tell us about the guards when you call so the quote reflects the job.
If a gutter is clean and still spills over the edge in rain, the problem is usually slope, capacity or the downspout size, not a buildup problem. Send us a photo or short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is. Water that keeps spilling for a season can lead to structural damage at the fascia, so we do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It only changes if the crew finds something that alters the job, such as a platform that cannot be set or a run packed far beyond what was described. You hear about it and agree to it before work starts, never after.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
