Our own crew cleans gutters for homes here and leaves each run clean, with every downspout flushed and flow-tested, leaves bagged and hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your house size and how much tree cover hangs over it, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most customers book in the spring and fall, and we keep the calendar open for both.
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, how many linear feet of gutter it carries and how much has to come out before the gutters run clean. Call (866) 435-6328 and we quote it over the phone 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 would rather you hear one number for the whole house before anyone climbs a ladder.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are consistent. A third story or a steep roofline that is too hard to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the back run, which sits higher than it looks from the driveway. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed solid, a clog of compacted leaves, twig and grit that has to be cut and bagged by hand. A leak at a joint or a loose hanger is photographed and reported, not sold on the spot. Gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add time on every section, because the trough under them has to be clean before the guard goes back. Flushing, flow testing and cleanup are included as part of cleaning and maintenance and never billed as extras, and if the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, not on the invoice.
The typical homeowner we clean for asks the same two questions on the phone: how the stories affect the number and whether the price includes the flush. Both answers are written into the price before anyone is booked. Gutter cleaning process questions are simple on our end, because we do the same steps on every house: clear the runs, flush every downspout, check that drainage is moving out at the outlet, photograph everything. That is the work, and it does not change based on how the house looks from the street. If you want to get your gutters on the schedule, ask for an estimate and we will price the house before anyone is booked.
On our jobs the heaviest quotes have been on houses with big trees hanging over the eaves and gutters that have not been cleaned since the last owner, especially after heavy rainfall has packed them. Where gutter maintenance has been skipped for two seasons, the quote goes up because there is more to pull out. Once the gutters are clean and the downspout is flowing, the next rain runs away from your home. Customers on a regular schedule, with cleanings every few months, usually pay less per visit, because there is far less to pull out each time.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $225 | from $295 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $200 | from $260 | from $335 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $235 | from $305 | from $395 |
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: once in the spring window across Massachusetts, late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop is done, and once in late fall, after the last leaves and debris come down. Across Raynham, gutters take about 52 inches of precipitation a year, and heavy rainfall in March, October and December is when a blockage in the run shows itself first. When we open a gutter in late spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In late October or November it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skip the fall visit, runs can droop and pull loose from the fascia while the wood starts to rot, by March, under the weight of ice. Starting the season with a clean gutter system is easier on the fascia than fixing a run that has dropped.
Under heavy tree cover, with big trees hanging over the eaves, our customers are on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the outlets between visits and the flush gets harder each time. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is enough for most houses, with a quick check of the runs in spring to keep them clean. Houses with guards still need the surface kept clean, though less often than an open gutter. The rain gutter on a guarded house stays cleaner between visits, but it still collects leaves on top of the guard and needs checking. Commercial properties under the same trees follow the same schedule.
Our crews keep records of what we find at each visit, and that is how we set the schedule for each house. Clogged downspouts are the first thing we check at every visit, because a run can look clean from the ground and still have a blockage at the elbow. Structural damage is the other thing we watch for, especially a run that has started to droop, because a gutter that has dropped pools water and pushes it into the fascia and the soffit. When we see that, we photograph it and report it, and we check that drainage carries water away from the foundation as part of the cleaning, not instead of it.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, based on what came out of your gutters and how the downspout drained, not on a general rule. Our gutter cleaning services follow that schedule, so you are not guessing when to book. That gives you a real schedule for your house instead of a guess, and sticking to it is how you protect your home from water damage.
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.

Our crew cleans gutters for Raynham homes across town, and the cleaning services in Raynham run from the nearest base, which keeps the calendar moving through the busy windows. The two heaviest weeks are in spring and fall, when the seed drop and the leaf drop hit at the same time across Massachusetts, and the calendar fills faster in those months. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328, give us your stories, roughly how big the house is and whether trees hang over the eaves, and send a photo of the front of the house by text if that is easy. We quote from that and hold a date. We also serve surrounding areas nearby on the same routes.
We call before we come, so the visit works even when you are away from your home, and the crew works from outside without coming in. We check water flow at each outlet and check each run for sag before we leave. Lead time depends on the week and the season, and we give you the first open date when you call. We do not hold slots we cannot fill, and if the calendar is full we tell you the next date that works rather than promising a visit we cannot make, so regular gutter cleaning stays on a steady schedule for you.
The gutter cleaning services we run are the same whether the house is on a quiet street or near a busy road. The same steps apply to residential properties, including debris removal, and the crew handles commercial properties the same way, so residential and commercial work runs on one route. Houses near construction or heavy traffic pick up grit and buildup faster, so a clog forms sooner, which is one reason the schedule for those houses runs closer to every three to four months, with drainage checked at every visit. Landscape beds and the lawn are left clean when the crew leaves. A note on that when you call helps us plan the route, and so we can clean your gutters on the first open date.
The number comes from how many stories the house has and how much gutter it carries, and we give you an estimate by phone or text before we book. Flushing and bagging are in that number, so nothing is added at the end.
Most of our customers book in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and again in late fall after the leaves are down. If you wait past the fall drop on a house with trees, the leaf mat is still wet and heavy when the first freeze comes, which is when the runs start to droop. Booking both visits helps you keep your gutters clear through the freeze and protects your home from water damage.
Same-day depends on the calendar that week. When you call (866) 435-6328 we tell you the first open date for your house or the surrounding areas, and if that is not today, we tell you the next date that works.
No. You can be away from your home for the visit. 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 and check the water flow at the outlet. If a run drains into an underground line, we check the outlet and tell you if water is not leaving, but clearing a buried line or a blockage in it is a separate job and we price it before anyone touches it.
Yes, guarded gutters still collect needles, seed casings and grit on top of the guard, and water can stop getting in. On our jobs a guarded gutter takes less time to clean than an open one, but the surface still needs clearing, and the gutters and downspouts still need flushing along the roofline as part of our gutter services.
A gutter that is clean and still spills rainwater in a storm usually has a slope, capacity or leak problem, not a clog or buildup. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning for a slope issue.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, we stop and tell you before any work continues, and you agree to the new number first. The invoice matches the quote unless you approved a change.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
