Our own crew cleans gutters in Johns Creek, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote, and we will tell you the first date the crew can clean your gutters. Most of our customers book in the spring and fall, and we would rather see a gutter before it overflows than after.
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 rain gutter. Homeowners get the quote over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Gutter cleaning services that price by the linear foot land in a similar place once the stories and the height of the house are counted in.
On our jobs here, a third story or a steep roof we cannot walk changes the setup, and so does a walk-out basement or a sloped lot that raises the effective height of the back run. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out with a heavy buildup of leaves and debris, and that takes longer to clean than a light leaf load. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too. Our gutter cleaning process is the same on every house: clear, flush, flow-test, haul, photograph. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-away are included in the quote and never billed as extras. If something changes the job once the crew is on site, you hear about it before any work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is what we have seen drive quotes on recent Johns Creek homes. A house with a clog at the lower run and clogged downspouts, where water flow is blocked by a packed elbow, usually needs the full flush before we can confirm the drainage works, and we say so in the estimate. A gutter that begins to sag at the end of a run has often been holding a wet mat for a long time, and we check whether there is structural damage to the fascia behind it before we give a final number. Our crew photographs each run so you can see what we found on your own phone, because the number has to match the work, and the goal on every run is water away from your home. We clean for residential and commercial properties in the area, but the numbers on this page are for residential properties only. Send us a photo of the front of the house by text and we will tell you what we see from the drive, then give you the number by phone.

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.
For a homeowner here, the usual pattern is a visit in the spring and fall: once after seed and pollen drop, and once after the last leaves come down, which runs November to early December. Across Georgia, spring visits fall in mid to late April. In spring the seeds, seed casings and pollen paste are what we find packed in the downspout elbows. In fall it is leaves packed into the trough, and where winters freeze, the first ice and the ice dams at the eave, along with any run that starts to sag or pulls loose by the time the weather turns on houses that skipped the fall visit.
Under heavy tree cover we see the gutter clog faster, so those homes are on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspout elbow between visits. Johns Creek GA averages 55 inches of rain a year, and March, July and December are the wettest months, which makes heavy rainfall the real test of a clean gutter. A roofline with few or no trees does well with one visit a year in late fall. Gutters with guards can go longer between visits, but the surface still needs clearing, because a wet mat on top of a guard is what sends water over the edge. Rainwater that cannot get into the gutter runs off the front edge and onto the ground below, and that is the signal we look for on a rain check.
After the first visit we tell you which of those schedules your lot actually needs, and the estimate for that schedule comes with it. Gutter cleaning service on a regular schedule catches the blockage before it turns into a repair, and regular gutter cleaning is usually cheaper than waiting for the overflow to start. Regular gutter maintenance means the debris removal happens before the trough fills. Residential and commercial sites both get scheduled, but the numbers on this page are for residential properties only. The question most people ask is when to clean your gutters, and the answer depends on the trees. Tell us what is growing around the house when you call, because that changes the schedule. If you would rather look at it from the driveway first, text a photo and we will tell you what we see before you book a 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.
We clean homes in Johns Creek and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and the crew does not need anything special at the house beyond clear access to the side gate. Booking for our gutter services starts with a quote by phone or text from the stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is over the gutters, plus a photo of the front of the house if that is easy for you to send. If you have gutter guards, tell us when you book, because they change the job. Call (866) 435-6328 to get started. If you are comparing quotes, ask whether the price covers Johns Creek gutter cleaning from the first flush to the photos. Every homeowner gets the same flush, flow test and photo set. Lead time is whatever the calendar shows when you call. The two busiest windows of the year are the spring and the fall, so if you want a particular week, that is when to call.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. The crew works outside, so you can keep the house as it is. If you have questions about the gutter system before you book, ask when you call and we will answer them directly. Our cleanings end with photos on your phone, so you see the work. If you see a leak at a joint between runs, send a photo with your booking. A twig lodged in an elbow can hold back a whole run, so the crew checks every elbow. Clearing the runs before heavy rainfall helps protect your home from water damage, which is the whole point of booking early. We flush every downspout before the crew leaves, and we keep your gutters and downspouts working through the storm season. The sooner you call, the sooner we can get your gutters scheduled for the rest of the year.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and what is in the gutter system. We give it by phone or text, and it is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing and haul-off are included.
Customers across Johns Creek mostly book in the spring after the seed drop and in the fall after the leaves are down. Heavy landscape around the house sheds seed and needles, so book sooner there. If you wait past the fall, we find the leaf mat packed in, and where winters freeze, ice dams forming at the eave.
Same-day depends on the calendar that week. Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the gutter cleaning process and the exact date when you call. The sooner you call, the sooner we can get your gutters on the calendar.
No. 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 know that the stand-offs keep the ladders away from your home.
Yes, every downspout gets flushed, and we check that the water runs clean at the outlet. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards keep leaves out, but not needles, seed casings, landscape litter or the wet mat that forms on top, so gutter maintenance still matters. Our cleaning and maintenance visit clears the surface, checks the runs underneath, flushes each downspout and reseats the guards.
A clean gutter that still sheets water over the edge has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. Send us a photo or short video taken during heavy rainfall, and we will tell you what it is. If water keeps sheeting over the edge, the fascia can start to rot, so do not wait.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, we raise it and you agree before work starts, so the number on the invoice matches the quote.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
