Our own crew cleans gutters in Clarksdale MS, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, everything we pull out hauled away from your home, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover hangs over the house, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on your invoice. On our Clarksdale jobs most customers book in the spring and fall, when the seed and pollen drop is done or the last leaves are down.
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 packed into the gutters. Our gutter cleaning services are quoted over the phone or by text from those three things, and the estimate we give is the number we charge. Some companies price by the linear foot and land in a similar place per foot, but on our jobs the whole house is what matters. The same three details set the quote for Clarksdale homes and for commercial properties.
On our jobs, a third story or a steep roof we cannot walk changes the quote. So does a walk-out basement or sloped lot that raises the effective height of the eaves, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with compacted leaf mat and the odd twig, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can clear the run. 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.
Here is what a recent job looked like from the ladder. The homeowner had a two-story house under heavy tree cover, and the gutters had not been opened in several years. When we pulled the first run, the sag at the low end was holding a standing pool of black water, and the buildup had created a full blockage in two of the clogged downspouts. Once the runs were clear and flushed, drainage ran clean to the outlet, and the water flow followed. The quote covered the stories, the size and the tree cover, and the number on the invoice matched it. Gutters cleared, no surprises, no extra structural damage to chase down.
If you tell us the stories, the size and whether trees overhang the house, we can give you the number while you are on the phone. If the easiest way to start is a photo of the front of the house, text it to us and we will look at the eaves and the runs before we quote.
| 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.
Most of our customers book twice a year, in the spring after the seed and pollen drop, and in the fall after the last leaves come down. In spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In fall we find leaves and debris, plus the wet mat they turn into, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that sagged or pulled loose before the winter was out.
Under heavy tree cover, most customers book cleanings every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits and a clog can build fast. Residential properties with few or no trees, and a simple landscape around the house, do well with one visit a year in late fall. Near a busy road or active construction, the grit settles faster and the schedule tightens. Guards help with leaves, but they are part of cleaning and maintenance, not a replacement for it, and we check underneath on every visit.
Every gutter run we open shows the same thing: when the leaves and grit sit, the drainage slows, the rainwater backs up to the roofline, and a leak at the joint starts to rot the fascia behind it. Regular gutter maintenance, with clean runs and flushed downspouts, stops that before it starts. A clean run moves water away from the fascia, which is the cheapest way to head off the structural damage that wet wood invites. It is also easier to keep a clean gutter than to recover one that has spilled water for a season.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, with the photos of the runs to back it up. For your home, call (866) 435-6328 today and we will get your gutters on the schedule for the first spring or fall 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.
Our crew works residential and commercial jobs across Clarksdale from the nearest base, and we keep the calendar open for homeowners who call first. Booking is simple. You get a quote by phone or text from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover overhangs the house, and a photo of the front of the house helps us see the job before we arrive. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit.
Our gutter services are busiest in two windows each year, the spring after the seed drop and the fall after the leaves come down, so booking early keeps your preferred date. Outside those windows slots open up more easily. We would rather give you an honest date than promise one we cannot keep.
When you book, we flush every downspout and check the drainage before we leave, so the gutters and the downspout are doing their job when the next storm comes through. Every visit includes a flush and a photo of every run, so you can see the gutters come out clean. The gutter cleaning process is simple: we call before we come, clear every run, and send the photos to your phone. We also cover the surrounding areas around town on the same route. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will check the next open date with you. If you clean your gutters on a set schedule, you protect your home from water damage, and our crew is here to keep that cycle on track.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, plus what is packed into the gutters. We quote it by phone or text, and the quote is the number on your invoice.
Most of our customers here book in spring after the seed and pollen drop, and in fall after the last leaves come down. If you wait longer, the leaf mat and the packed grit make the job harder, and runs can sag before winter.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call. We do not promise same-day cleaning services in Clarksdale unless the calendar has an opening that day.
No. Our crew works outside and does not come inside. We send photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves, so you can check the runs are clean.
Yes, we flush every downspout and check the water flow at the outlet. Clearing an underground drain line is a separate job and is quoted before we touch it.
Yes. A rain gutter with guards still gathers leaves and needles on top and grit underneath, and the gutter system below still needs checking. We clear the surface and check the run is clean before we leave.
If a clean gutter still spills water in heavy rainfall, it is usually a slope or downspout size problem, not a clog. Send us a photo or short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is.
Only if we find something that changes the job, and in that case you hear it and agree to it before we start. The number 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.
