Our own crew cleans gutters on Tifton homes, and every downspout gets flushed and flow-tested before we pack up. Debris is hauled away, and you get photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give on the phone is the number on your invoice. Most of our customers book in the spring and the fall, when the seed drop and the leaf drop have finished.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price depends on how many stories the house has, its square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. We give an estimate at (866) 435-6328 or by text from those three things, and the number we give is the number we charge. Some companies price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place per run, but we price the whole house so you know the total before anyone climbs a ladder.
On our jobs, a few things push the price up. Our gutter cleaning process starts with the stories and the roofline, so the number matches the actual job. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement puts the back run far up the wall. Gutters that nobody has opened in years hold compacted leaves and twigs that take more time to clear, and gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add labor. A gutter that was clean last fall takes less time, and the quote reflects that. A sagging run that holds water is a leak waiting to happen, and we flag it on the quote. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-away are included in the quote and are never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, not on the invoice.
When a homeowner calls us, the first thing we ask about is the heavy rainfall they had in March, June or July and whether water was running over the edge. That tells us whether the downspout is the problem or the gutter is simply full. Our crew checks the run from the ladder, shows you the photo, and gives you a number on the phone for getting it clean. A clean gutter carries rainwater away from your home, and that is the whole point of the job. If you are unsure what your house needs, send us a photo of the front of the house by text and we will tell you what we see from the ground.
| 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 customers book twice a year. Across Georgia the spring visit falls in mid to late April, after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit runs late November to December, after the last leaves have fallen. When we open a gutter in spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows where a blockage forms. In November it is the leaf load, the odd twig and the wet mat that sits in the trough. A clean trough in late November is the exception, not the rule. Houses that skipped the fall visit tend to show sagging runs by March, and on a few of them the fascia had started to rot where the water sat in the cold.
Under heavy tree cover, we see customers on every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the lower runs between visits. Regular gutter cleaning is what keeps those pipes from packing. A house with few or no trees usually stays clean enough with one visit a year in late fall. Gutters with guards still need the surface cleared, but less often. Between visits, cleaning and maintenance is mostly watching the outlets for water that is slow to leave. Water that runs over the front edge lands on the landscape beds at the foundation, so check there too. Our crew checks the gutter system on every visit and reports any buildup, any sag or any place where water flow is slow, so you know what the house is doing between cleanings.
Across Tifton, the calendar fills around the same two windows, spring and fall. Many of our customers also have commercial properties on their own lots, and we handle those on a separate schedule. Gutter maintenance between visits is a matter of checking each downspout, not a second cleaning. The main thing is to keep leaves and twigs out of the downspouts so a clean rain gutter can carry water away from the foundation. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs.
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 cleaning services in Tifton reach surrounding areas from the nearest base, and we book by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text. Give us the stories, the size of the house and a rough sense of the tree cover, and we will quote it before you commit. A photo of the front of the house helps if it is easy to send. Tell us whether the gutters have been clean since last fall, because that changes the first visit. Lead time depends on the calendar, and we will tell you the first open date when you call. If you want to get your gutters on the schedule this season, ask for a gutter cleaning service date first. Nobody needs to be home, and we call before we come.
The two busiest windows are spring and fall, because that is when our homeowners want the job done, so book early if you can. We handle residential and commercial jobs, and the crew works the same way on both. If a clog, a sag or poor drainage shows up between visits, call and we will look at it the next time we are in the area. Our aim is to keep your gutters working and protect your home on a schedule that suits the house, not to sell you more visits than you need. A clean gutter is the goal, not a bigger bill.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and our process prices it before we book, by phone or text. The quote is the price you pay for cleaning services in Tifton GA, with downspout flushing and haul-away included.
The spring visit across Georgia falls in mid to late April, and the fall visit runs late November to December. If you wait past the fall, the leaf mat has packed down, and a run left sagging through winter can turn into structural damage by spring.
Lead time for our gutter services depends on the calendar, so call and we will give you the first open date, which we confirm before we book.
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 and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
We flush every downspout and flow-test it. If the drain runs underground, we check that rainwater leaves at the outlet and tell you if it does not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes, less often, but the surface still collects needles, seeds and grit, and you still need to clean your gutters on a schedule. On our jobs under guards we find the mat sitting on top, and once a clog forms there the water never gets in, so we clear the surface and reseat the panels.
A gutter that is clean and still spills water over the edge has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling you a second cleaning. Catching it early helps you protect your home from water damage.
It should not. If we find something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before the crew starts. The quote covers the gutters and downspouts on the house, and the price you agreed on is the one on the invoice. This holds for the surrounding areas too, and if the gutters are clean when we arrive and nothing new turns up, the number stays.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
