Our own crew cleans gutters in Danville KY, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, everything we pull out hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. Call (866) 435-6328 for a price built from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give you is the number on the invoice. Across Kentucky, most of our customers book in the spring and fall to protect your home.
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 how much leaves and debris is in the gutters. We give an estimate over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Companies that price by the linear foot for gutter cleaning services land in a similar place per run, but the job is set by the height of the roofline and how much is packed in the trough, not the length alone. The same three things set the quote on commercial properties.
On our jobs the things that move the price are predictable. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot puts the back run higher than it looks from the driveway. Gutters that have not seen a clean in years hold a compacted leaf mat and a buildup that has set in place, and that takes more time to clear. Guards we have to lift and reseat add a step. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. Anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, never on the invoice.
Danville homes usually see the same few things at the first visit: a run that starts to sag because the hangers have pulled, water running behind the trough where a leaf mat has held it, and clogged downspouts, like one with a blockage at the elbow. Each of those slows the water flow through the system and the drainage, and that moves the water away from the foundation, so we clear and flush the whole system rather than the stretch that is easy to reach, which helps protect the home from water damage. Where we find structural damage such as soft fascia or a seam that has opened and started to leak, we photograph it and put it in the report, and the homeowner sees it before we leave.
On a house with a steep back roof or a dense canopy over one run, the price often comes in higher than the front of the house suggests, because that run is packed and the lift has to be set on the slope. On every job we clear every run, flush every downspout and send the photos before we leave. If the customer also wants a rain gutter on a porch roof looked at, we do it on the same visit.
Send us a photo of the front of the house by text if that is easy, and tell us how many stories and roughly how big it is. We will give you the number on the spot, and the crew will show up for that number.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $185 | from $240 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $165 | from $215 | from $280 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $190 | from $250 | from $325 |
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.
In Danville, most of our customers book two cleanings a year through our gutter cleaning service, once in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in fall after the last leaves come down. When we open a gutter here in May we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows. In November it is the wet leaf mat, and where a house skipped the fall visit we have seen runs sag under the weight by the next spring. The clog that forms in fall is usually the one that causes the trouble, and it is the easiest to prevent if you clean your gutters before the rain sets in.
Under heavy tree cover, regular gutter cleaning means a visit every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspout between visits. Residential properties with few or no trees around them do well with one cleaning a year in late fall. Houses near a busy road or a construction site tend to fill faster than their neighbors, and we adjust the schedule to match. Guards need less frequent cleaning, but the surface still has to be kept clean, or the rainwater runs straight over the top and off the front edge.
On a lot with no trees, one cleaning a year in late fall is often enough to keep the trough clear through the winter. Under a thick canopy the trough can fill to the first hanger within three months, so the interval is set by what the first visit finds rather than by a fixed rule.
After the first visit we set the gutter maintenance interval your lot actually needs, and we put the reasons in the photo report so you can see them for yourself.
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 Danville and the surrounding areas, and the same crew handles every visit to the same standard. Older homes near downtown, newer two-story homes and lots with heavy tree cover all get the same full clean. Booking for our gutter services starts with a quote by phone or text from stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the front of the house helps if you can send one. If you have gutter guards, mention them on the call, because they change the job. Lead time is confirmed when you call, and we will tell you the next open window at that point.
Across Kentucky, late May to June is the busiest spring stretch, and late October to November fills the calendar fastest for us in fall. If you want a spot in one of those windows, call early. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. The crew works on the outside of the house, and the photos come to your phone when we are done.
Our crew cleans gutters and downspouts from the ground and the ladder, and a twig or a clog at the elbow gets cleared from both ends. We take residential and commercial jobs, and if you have a commercial building in the area, the same crew handles the scheduling for both. We will keep your gutters clear, and we will flush every downspout so the water is moving away from your home rather than sitting at the bottom of the run. For Danville gutter cleaning, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to get a number before the next storm.
Our cleaning services in Danville are priced from the stories and the size of the house, and we give the number by phone or text. We do not put a range here because every two-story house has a different run length and clog. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
Most of our customers across Danville book in late spring and in fall. If you wait past the fall leaf drop, the mat turns wet and heavy, and one heavy rainfall can push water over the front edge and onto the fascia, where the board can rot. We see sagging runs by the next March on houses that skipped the visit. Clean before the first hard freeze.
Same-day depends on our calendar that week. Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. If you need the earliest window to get your gutters done, tell us when you call.
No. The gutter cleaning process happens outside only. Our crew does not come inside, and we send 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, every downspout is flushed and flow-tested at the outlet, including a clogged downspout that needs clearing from the top, and we check that water is leaving the whole gutter system so the water runs away from your home. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, priced before anyone touches it.
Yes. On our jobs we find needles, seed casings, landscape trimmings and roof grit sitting on top of the guard, and rain runs over that mat and off the front edge. We clean the surface, check the flow and reseat the guards, which is still gutter maintenance even on a guarded system.
A clean gutter that still spills in rain 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. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. Cleaning and maintenance visits are priced once, and if we find something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before work starts. The number we gave you is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
