Mundy gutter cleaning is done by our own crew, who flush every downspout, check that it flows, haul the debris away, and send you 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 you on the phone is the number on your invoice. We have run spring and fall visits for Michigan homeowners for years, and most of our Mundy customers book in late May or October.
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. Mundy gutter cleaning is quoted over the phone or by 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 whole figure before we arrive.
On our jobs, a few things push the quote up. A third story or a steep roof that cannot be walked means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with leaves and debris, and that takes longer than a light clog. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time as well. Downspout flushing, water flow testing and debris removal are included in every clean and never billed as extras. If anything we find changes the job, we tell you before work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is what it looks like on a recent job in Mundy. A two-story home with a few mature trees over the back run had a gutter line so full of seed and leaf mat that water had begun running behind the fascia. The crew made one clean pass on the run, flushed the clogged downspouts and checked the flow at each outlet before the truck left, and sent the photos the same afternoon. The part of the bill that moved was the tree cover and how long the buildup had been there, both of which we could see before we climbed up. Every Mundy quote we give starts from the same three things, and we will walk you through which of them is driving your number.
For commercial properties, the same rule holds: we price per building, scheduled to the roofline, with the gutters and drainage checked before we leave. Our gutter cleaning services cover residential properties too, and both get the same clean.
Residential and commercial jobs use the same crew and the same photo record. This is how we keep the number honest and the rain gutter carrying water away when the next storm comes through.
| 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.
Gutter cleaning in Mundy MI usually means two cleanings a year. Most of our Mundy customers book once in late spring, after the seed and pollen drop, and once in late fall after the leaves are down. When we open a gutter here in May we find seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. By October it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs sag under the first freeze and pull loose by March. In Michigan the snow months from November through April put real weight on a full gutter, so the fall visit is the one that protects the eave going into winter.
Under heavy tree cover, regular gutter cleaning runs about every three to four months, because needles, a stray twig and grit pack the downspouts between visits. Mundy homes with big trees over the roof are the ones that need it. On a lot with few or no trees, a clean once a year in late fall is usually enough. Gutter guards change the schedule a little, but gutter maintenance still includes a clean of the surface and a flow check at every visit, so the cadence does not drop to zero.
May, July and August are the wettest months here, so rainwater tests a clogged run hardest. When a clog is building, the signs show up early: water pouring over the front edge in heavy rainfall instead of out of the downspout, a run that sits low, or a leak at the seam where two sections join. A gutter cleaning service visit at the first sign of a blockage costs less than waiting for fascia rot or structural damage to the soffit. Across Michigan, spring visits run late May to June, and the fall visit falls October into early November. We confirm the date when you call.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs. Ask us for the estimate and we will say how often to clean your gutters, given the trees and the roofline on your property.
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 Mundy and provides cleaning services in Mundy from the nearest base, without tying the schedule to one neighborhood. Booking with us is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a quote from stories, size and tree cover. The two windows that fill fastest are late spring and October into early November. If you want a particular week to get your gutters done, book early. We call before we come to clean, and nobody needs to be home for the visit.
Whether you are a Mundy homeowner with an ordinary gutter system or a property with a longer run of rain gutter and more than one downspout, our gutter services follow the same approach. We also look at landscape beds under the downspouts before we clean, because washed-out mulch shows where the water is landing. We clean every run of gutters and downspouts, flush every downspout, check the flow and send the photos. That keeps the water moving away from your home, helps protect your home from water damage across the surrounding areas, and helps you keep your gutters working between storms.
The number comes from the stories, the square footage and what is in the gutters. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote it from those three things before we book.
Most of our customers here book a clean in late spring, after the seed and pollen drop, and again in October after the leaves come down. If you wait past the first hard freeze, the fall visit gets harder, because the ice and the wet leaf mat are already packed in.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. We cannot promise same-day service on every request, so ask us about the next opening.
No. Our crew works outside and does not come inside. Leave the side gate unlocked, move landscape pots and patio furniture away from the ladder spot, and keep pets indoors while the ladders are up. We will send photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Yes, we clean out and flush every downspout and check the flow at each outlet. If a downspout drains into an underground line, we check that the water leaves at the outlet, and clearing a buried line is a separate job that we quote before we touch it.
Yes. A guard does not replace cleaning and maintenance. On our jobs under guards we find seed casings, needles and grit on top of the guard, and once that mat is wet, the water runs off the front edge instead of into the gutter. We still clear the surface and check the flow.
A clean gutter that still sheets water over the edge in heavy rainfall usually has a slope or capacity problem, not a debris problem. Send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain, and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
The number we quote is the number we charge. The gutter cleaning process stays the same on every job. If we find something that changes the job, we call you and agree on it before the crew does any more work, never after the invoice is written.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
