Our own crew cleans gutters here, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, everything hauled away and every run left clean, with photos of each run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover hangs over the house. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Georgia, most of our customers book the spring visit after seed and pollen drop and the fall visit after the last leaves, and we keep the same calendar here.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price for gutter cleaning services depends on stories, square footage and what is in the gutters. We give you an estimate over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. The same process covers every one of our gutter services. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place per foot, but on a house the total is what matters.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder and more care at the edge. A walk-out basement or a sloped landscape puts the back run much higher than the front, which changes how the drainage works at each downspout. A rain gutter nobody has opened in years comes out packed with compacted leaf mat, and a clog at the elbow or a sag in the run takes longer to clear. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time on every run. Gutters and downspouts are one job: we flush every downspout, check the water flow at each outlet so it runs away from your home, and include debris removal, never billed as an extra. The crew does not leave until every run is clean at the outlet. Anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, never on the invoice.
On our Flowery Branch homes, a two-story house with a heavy leaf load in the back run cost more to clean than a one-story ranch with open runs, and the difference was the time spent clearing packed leaves and checking that each downspout drained. A packed trough that sits through a wet season is how structural damage starts at the fascia. We tell you what the house needs on the phone before we book the date. Our crew handles residential properties and the occasional commercial building, and the rule is the same for residential and commercial properties: the number you hear is the number you pay. Most gutter jobs here are regular gutter cleaning, and a steady schedule keeps the trough clean enough that the buildup never changes the quote.
Send us a photo of the front of the house by text if that is easy. It helps us see the stories and the pitch before we call. Once we know those three things, the quote is one call away.
| 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 Georgia, spring visits land in mid to late April, after seed and pollen drop, and our fall visits run November to early December, after the last leaves. The gutter visit in April catches the seeds and pollen paste that clog the elbows, and leaves the trough clean for the spring rains. The November visit catches the leaves and debris that hold rainwater in the trough. Across Flowery Branch, rainfall totals about 57.4 inches a year, and the wettest months are January, February and December. Heavy rainfall in those months is when a full trough overflows.
When we open a gutter here in spring we find seeds packed in the downspout elbows and a pollen paste that sticks to the inside of the trough. In late fall it is the leaf load, and on houses that skipped that visit we have checked the whole gutter system and found runs that sagged or pulled loose by the following winter. Ice dams at the eave show up on the same houses, and a blockage at the outlet makes them worse. Water that backs up at the roofline often shows as a ceiling leak. Freeze risk is real here in the winter months, and a clean gutter in November is the cheapest way to protect your home from water damage for the rest of the year, because it carries the water away from the eave.
Under heavy tree cover, or near a busy road or construction, we see customers on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles, twig and grit pack the elbows between visits, and a clogged downspout stops moving water toward the outlet. Gutter guards still need gutter maintenance, just less often, but the surface still needs to be cleared. With few or no trees overhead, once a year in late fall keeps the gutters clean enough. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs.
A simple schedule is the easiest way to keep your gutters clear all year. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house to book your spring or fall date.
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 covers the city and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and our cleaning services in Flowery Branch GA cover the whole city. Homeowners who book early get the date they want. The gutter cleaning process starts with one call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with a photo of the front of the house, and that is how you get your gutters on the calendar. We ask about stories, the approximate square footage and whether trees hang over the house, then give you a number on the phone. Lead time depends on how full the calendar is for cleaning and maintenance visits, and we confirm a date when you call. Repeat cleanings get the same crew on the same street whenever the route allows, and if you want to clean your gutters on a schedule rather than once, we set that up on the first call.
The calendar fills in two stretches a year, spring and fall: the spring window after the seed drop and the late-fall window after the leaves come down. If you want a slot in those months, book early. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew leaves the ground as clean as it found it. Flowery Branch gutter cleaning runs by route, so the same crew who did your street is usually the one who comes back.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a range on the page because the house decides it. Call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and the rough square footage and we will give you the number before we book the date.
Across Georgia, spring visits land in mid to late April, and our fall visits run November to early December. Booking the fall visit on time helps protect your home from water damage, because waiting past the late fall visit means the leaf mat sits in the trough through the first freeze, and that is when we see runs that sag and ice at the eave.
Same-day depends on the calendar that week. Most slots come up within the week for our cleaning services in Flowery Branch, and homeowners get the exact date when they call.
No homeowner has to be home for exterior work. 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, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and the yard is left clean.
Yes, we flush every downspout and flow-test it at the outlet, which keeps water away from your home. A downspout that will not clear from the bottom is worked from the top, and we tell you if it is still draining slowly. Clogged downspouts get the same check. If a downspout drains into an underground line, we check that water is leaving at the outlet and tell you if it is not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes, less often, but the surface still needs clearing, and we check the whole gutter system each visit. On our jobs leaves and debris, seed casings and grit sit on top of the guard, and once that mat is wet, rain runs off the front edge. We clear the surface and check that the gutter underneath is clean.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem, and left alone that water can cause structural damage and rot at the fascia. Send us a photo or a short video 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 job changes, and if it does you hear it and agree to it before work starts. The number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
