Our own crew cleans gutters in Florence, and every downspout is flushed and flow-tested before we leave. What comes out of the gutters is hauled away, and you get photos of every run. The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice.
We have been doing this work across Kentucky for years, and our cleaning services follow the same checks on every house. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote. A homeowner gets one number, and the crew leaves the gutters clean.
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 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. Other companies price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the job is measured, but we would rather give you one number up front.
On our jobs, a third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder and more care on the edge. A walk-out basement, or a steep landscape that drops away at the back, puts the back run far up from the ground, and gutters that nobody has opened in years come out packed solid with old material that has to be worked loose by hand. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too, and a gutter system that has never been cleared takes longer than a fresh one. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included, never billed as extras, and anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, not on the invoice. Every run is left clean.
Florence homes tend to see the same few problems, but no two houses clog the same way. Some have a clog every spring from seed drop and pollen paste; others have a full leaf mat sitting in the trough every November. When the crew opens a run, we look for the blockage, the sag, the buildup and any leak at a seam, then check the water flow and drainage from the top to the bottom of the downspout. That is the core of our gutter cleaning services. It is the same process whether the house is a small bungalow or a larger two-story with a long roofline, and a clean run is the goal every time.
We also work on residential properties and commercial properties, and a commercial building is scheduled per building. For a home, we work from a photo of the front of the house and the three things above, then confirm the date when you call. Clean your gutters on a regular schedule and the crew spends less time on each visit, which usually means a lower total over the year.
| 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.
Homeowners here usually plan spring and fall visits. Across Kentucky the spring visit lands in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop. In Florence the fall visit falls in late October to November, after the last leaves come down. In spring we open the gutter and find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. By fall it is a wet mix of leaves and debris, and on houses that skipped that visit we see runs that have sagged, pulled loose, or started to rot at the fascia by the following winter.
Under heavy tree cover, or near a busy road or construction, we see a clog build up between visits, so those houses go on a schedule of every three to four months. Needles, twig pieces and grit pack a downspout quickly and cause a blockage that shows up as water pouring over the edge in the next heavy rainfall. The wettest months are April, May and June, so a blockage matters most then. Rainwater backs up behind clogged downspouts, and that is what turns a clean run into an overflow. A roof with few or no trees is usually fine on once a year in late fall. Guarded gutters need less frequent work, but the surface still needs a clean.
After the first visit we tell you which of those schedules your lot actually needs, based on what we found in the gutters and how fast the water moved through the downspouts. A rain gutter that stays clean carries water away from your home, and it helps protect your home from water damage, including structural damage to the fascia and foundation. You avoid a bigger repair later if you keep your gutters on the right cycle, and that is the basis of our gutter services in Florence ky and the surrounding areas. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the gutters to 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.
The crew covers Florence from the nearest base, and booking works the same for every street. Booking starts with a quote by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text, using stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the front of the house if that is easy to send. We call before we come, and a homeowner does not need to be home for exterior work.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, so the earlier you call, the more choice you have on cleanings in either season. We keep the process for each job simple: quote, confirm the slot, clean, then photos of every run before the truck leaves. Homeowners who want the job done quickly and without fuss tend to book the first slot that opens, and the process stays the same whatever the lead time.
Once the visit is done, the photos show exactly what we cleared and what, if anything, needs a second look. That is how we keep the work honest and let you get your gutters checked on the schedule that suits your house. Gutter maintenance is mostly a repeat job for returning customers, and the crew's cleaning and maintenance records stay on file so the next visit starts from a clean record of what we found last time.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure here because every two-story home has a different roofline and a different amount of material in the trough.
Across Kentucky the spring visit lands in late May to June, and the fall visit falls in late October to November. When we open a gutter in May we find seeds and pollen, and in November it is a wet leaf mat. Skipping the fall visit is when we see runs that sag before March.
Most of our cleaning services in Florence are scheduled within the week, and we confirm a date when you call. We do not promise same-day work because the calendar fills quickly in the busy windows.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves, so you can see a clean run without being there. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes. We flush every downspout and check that the drainage is leaving the outlet, since gutters and downspouts only work when they drain together. If a line runs underground and needs clearing beyond the outlet, we tell you and quote that work separately, with no surprises on the invoice.
Yes. Guards stop leaves but not needles, seeds or grit, which mat on top and run over the front edge when wet. We clear the surface, flush the downspout and reseat the guards, so the whole gutter system drains.
If a clean run still spills over the edge in heavy rainfall, the problem is usually slope or downspout size, not debris. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning. A rain gutter that keeps overflowing can lead to structural damage, so do not wait on it.
It should not. Anything that changes the job is raised and agreed 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.
