Our own crew cleans gutters in Aurora, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our Aurora customers book in the spring and fall, and we are glad to fit you in.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
For homeowners here, the price depends on stories, square footage and what is in the gutters. We quote it by phone or text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Some companies price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place per run, but we would rather you know the full figure up front.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run far up the wall, gutters nobody has opened in years with packed-in leaves, and guards we have to lift and reseat. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are part of our gutter cleaning services and never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Homes around here often carry a mix of leaves, seeds and grit, and a gutter system that has built up for a few seasons is where a clog starts to cause drainage trouble, sag and water flow problems at the eave, and where the fascia behind it begins to rot. When we open one, we clear the buildup, check the run for a low spot, and flush every downspout until the water runs clean at the bottom. The same crew handles residential and commercial work. Our residential properties and the commercial properties we serve both get the same photo report, and every run is handed back clean.
Ask us for regular gutter cleaning on a schedule, and the quote drops in step with the house. If you want to clean your gutters once and be done, that works too. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a number to work from.

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 Aurora customers book twice a year: in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and again in late fall after the last leaves come down. When we open a rain gutter here in May we find seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows; in November it is a wet leaf mat that holds water against the rainwater line. Catching a clog or a rainwater blockage before the first hard freeze is the main reason fall is the visit that matters most on freeze-belt houses. May, June and July are the wettest months here, with about 39.5 inches of precipitation a year, so heavy rainfall tests every run in those months.
Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is what keeps a downspout clear, because needles, twig pieces and grit pack in between visits. Near a busy road or in a landscape with a lot of mulch, the same rhythm applies. Houses with few or no trees do well on a once-a-year visit in late fall to keep the gutters clean, though a gutter run that looks low is worth checking sooner.
Gutter guards cut the work down, but they do not end it. Under guards we still clear the surface and check the run, so the gutters and downspouts stay clean and keep moving water away from the foundation and help protect your home. A visit from our crew is also a chance to spot a seam that has started to leak, which is the early sign of water damage. Catching it early keeps your home from water damage that reaches the wall.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will set a date that fits your schedule, and we will help you keep your gutters clean between visits.
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.
Aurora gutter cleaning is run from the nearest base, and our crew works across Aurora and the surrounding areas. We book gutter services by phone or text from the three things that set the number: stories, size and tree cover. A photo of the front of the house helps us see the roofline before we arrive. Lead time varies with the season, and the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, fill fastest.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. Booking is a short call, and we take the details that let us give you a firm estimate over the phone, so the crew arrives ready to clean. Every homeowner gets that call. If your gutters have been left a long time, tell us so we can plan for the heavier load on the crew.
Our cleanings are the same for a single family home or a larger building, and the schedule we keep is the same too. If you are ready to get your gutters cleaned, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo and we will confirm a slot. We keep the gutter cleaning process simple, so gutter maintenance stays on track for the whole year.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it by phone or text for any home we serve. Tell us the stories, the approximate square footage and whether trees hang over the roof, and we will quote the job before we book it.
Late spring and late fall are when our customers here book. Our fall visits run late October to November, and in that window a clean gutter going into the freeze prevents the ice and droop we see by March on houses that skipped the visit. Waiting past the first hard freeze makes the job harder and raises the risk of structural damage.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. Same-day depends on the day's route, so ask us when you 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.
Yes, we flush every downspout, including clogged downspouts, and check that water is leaving at the outlet, away from your home. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes, though less often. Under guards we find needles, seed casings and grit sitting on top, and once that mat is wet, water runs past the guard and off the front edge. We clear the surface and check the run every visit.
A clean gutter that still spills water over the edge has a slope or capacity problem, not a cleaning problem. Send us a photo or short video in heavy rainfall and we will tell you what it is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to it before any 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.
