Our own crew cleans gutters in Carrollton, and we flush every downspout and flow-test it before we leave. Debris gets hauled away, not blown into the beds, and you get photos of every run on your phone before the truck pulls out.
The price comes from stories, size and tree cover. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our customers book in spring and fall, and we have been on these roofs long enough to know where the clogs start.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
Carrollton homes vary in height and tree cover, and the price follows how many stories the house has, how much square footage it covers, how much buildup is sitting in the gutters and how much landscape or tree cover sits over the roof. We quote it over the phone or by text from those things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Our gutter cleaning services cover homes and commercial properties alike. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place per foot, but on our jobs the stories and the amount of leaves and debris are what actually drive it.
A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and more equipment. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline, so the back run sits farther off the ground than the front. Gutters that have not been opened in years come out packed with compacted debris, and that is slower work than a light fall. A clog that has sat for a season adds time, and so does a sag in a run, because the water pools in the low spot until the crew clears it. A twig wedged in a downspout elbow adds time too. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time on top of the cleaning itself.
Downspout flushing, flow testing, drainage checks and haul-off of everything we pull out are included and never billed as extras. The crew checks water flow and flushes each gutter until the water runs clean at the bottom, and every homeowner gets the same written number before the crew climbs. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to it before work starts, never on the invoice.
On one of our jobs, a customer on a two-story house with heavy tree cover had a clog at the bottom of the back run that had been overflowing for two seasons. The crew found compacted leaves and a sag in the middle section that held standing water, and the quote was raised before the work began. Left another season, that sag could have turned into structural damage to the fascia. Once the rain gutter was clean, it carried water away from the foundation within the hour. Read the full job here: the full case.
If you are not sure what your house needs, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories and the trees over the roof. We will come back with a number before anyone climbs a ladder.

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 customers book twice a year, once in spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in fall after the last leaves come down. Those two cleanings keep the runs clear going into each season, and regular gutter cleaning on that schedule is the simplest way to keep water away from your home. Across Georgia the same pattern holds, but the timing shifts with the weather.
Across Georgia, the spring visit usually falls in mid to late April, and that is when we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In fall, the visit lands in November to early December, and leaves and grit are the main problem. On houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that have pulled loose or sagged by March. Carrollton gets about 53.5 inches of rain a year, and the wettest months are February, March and December, so rainwater has nowhere to go but over the edge when the trough is full. A clogged run is also the first place a leak shows up at the seams.
Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the right interval to clean your gutters, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. Near a busy road or construction, the same schedule applies, and debris removal is part of every visit. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is enough for most homes. Guards reduce how often you need the crew, but the surface still needs to be clean.
After the first visit we give you an estimate for the year and tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and that sets the rest of your gutter maintenance. The gutter cleaning process starts there and repeats on the schedule you pick.
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 Carrollton from the nearest base. We clean residential properties across Carrollton GA and the surrounding areas, and Carrollton homeowners book on the same calendar that commercial customers use. Booking a gutter cleaning service starts with a quote by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text, based on stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the house front if that is easy for you to send. Carrollton gutter cleaning dates depend on the calendar at the moment you call, and we confirm the date when we talk. The busiest windows are the weeks in spring and fall when most homeowners book at once, so calling early helps. Our gutter services range from a single cleaning to a regular schedule, and we set the plan when you book.
We call before we come and nobody needs to be home. On every visit we check gutters and downspouts, flush every downspout, and look for any blockage at the outlet. If you have gutter guards, mention them when you book so the crew can plan for lifting and reseating them. If you keep your gutters clean between visits, a regular schedule helps protect your home from water damage. It also catches a leak at the gutter seam before it reaches the fascia and the foundation.
The number comes from the stories and the square footage, along with what is in the gutters. Our gutter cleaning services are quoted from those same three things. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house and we will give you a figure before we schedule.
Our customers here book in late spring and late fall, and the fall visit usually lands in November to early December. Waiting until the leaves of fall are down tends to leave a clogged gutter sitting through the wet winter months, and that is when we see the sags and the loose hangers.
Lead times vary with the calendar. Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call. Our cleaning services in Carrollton fill up fastest in spring and fall.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves. A homeowner who is at work still gets the photos. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. If you want to get your gutters on the schedule before the next storm, call (866) 435-6328.
Yes, we flush every downspout and flow-test it until it runs clean. Where a downspout feeds an underground line, we check drainage at the outlet to confirm water is leaving. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. On our jobs, guards keep the big leaves out, but needles, seed casings and grit still settle on top and underneath, so the gutter system still needs clearing. We clear the surface, flush the downspouts and reseat the guards.
After heavy rainfall, a clean gutter that still sheets water over the edge usually has slope, capacity or downspout-size trouble, not leftover leaves or clogged downspouts. Letting it sit can lead to rot in the fascia and soffit and to structural damage. Send us a short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Only if the crew finds something that changes the job during cleaning and maintenance work. You hear about it and agree to the new number before any work starts.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
