Our own crew cleans gutters in Gautier, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled off, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover shades the house, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Mississippi, most of our customers book in the spring and fall, and we call before we come.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
Gautier homeowners ask one question first, and the answer depends on stories, square footage and what is in the gutters. We quote it 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 land in a similar place per foot of run, but the stories and the state of the gutter system matter more than the length on most houses.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a pitch too steep to walk, a sloped lot or walk-out basement that raises the back run, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with compacted buildup, and guards we have to lift and reseat before the gutter can be cleared. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris haul-off are included in our gutter cleaning services and never billed as extras. If something changes the job, we raise it before work starts, never on the invoice. A gutter clog that has been sitting long enough to rot the fascia takes more time than a clean run, and any structural damage from a sag or a loose hanger gets photographed, reported and kept out of the cleaning price.
On our Gautier jobs the quotes move most with stories and with the gutter that has not been touched in years. A house under a heavy canopy has more clogged downspouts than one in the open, and that shows up in the water flow once it is flushed. Commercial properties are priced per building on a separate quote, and a small house with leaves and debris packed into the elbows can cost more than a larger one that was cleaned last season.
Each quote is written for the house in front of the crew, and a clean number on the phone is the one on the invoice. Send a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories, and we will tell you on the phone whether the number moves for the gutter, the drainage or the water away from your home. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roof edge, and we will give you the number before anyone climbs a ladder.

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 here book two cleanings a year, in the spring after the seed and pollen drop finishes and again in the fall after the last leaves come down. Across Mississippi the spring visit falls mid to late April, and in Gautier the fall visit usually lands late November to December. Our Gautier MS gutter cleaning service calendar fills around those two windows. In spring the downspout elbows are packed with seed casings and pollen paste; in fall it is the wet leaf mat, and that is where a clog starts to back water up the wall.
Under heavy tree cover, clean your gutters every three to four months, which keeps the gutter from packing, because needles and grit fill the downspouts between visits and a single rain can overflow a run that looked fine in June. In the open, with few or no trees, once a year in late fall is usually enough. Houses near a busy road or construction get the shorter interval for the same reason: the grit does not stop at the gutter, and clearing it out on every visit keeps the buildup from settling into the elbows.
Gautier homes that skip the spring or fall visit are the ones we see with a sag by the next season, and in a heavy rainfall they are the first to show water behind the fascia. A rain gutter kept clean on schedule keeps rainwater moving away from the foundation and out of the roofline, and residential and commercial properties both need regular gutter cleaning, since a blockage caught early is a short visit, not a repair. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the spring or fall date, or ask for a written estimate to get your gutters on a schedule that fits your lot.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot needs for gutter maintenance, twice a year, every three to four months, or once a year, and we write it on the invoice. Text a photo of the roof edge and we will tell you the interval before we book the first visit.
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.
We clean across Gautier and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and the crew does not change for the neighborhood. Booking runs by phone or text: send the stories, the approximate size, a yes or no on tree cover over the house, and a photo of the house front if it is easy. We quote from that and confirm the date when you call. Lead time moves with the season, and the two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, when the calendar fills first. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
A homeowner who books early in the year gets the slot they want, and those who wait until the first rain find the calendar full for two weeks. If you are on the fence about a schedule, text a photo and we will tell you which window fits the house. Our gutter services stop at the gutters and downspouts, and anything we see past them, like a leak at a seam or a loose hanger, is photographed and reported.
Keep your gutters clean of leaves, grit and the odd twig, and the rain will run where it should, whatever the landscape around the house. On each visit we flush every downspout and check where it drains, which helps protect your home from water damage at the foundation and the back of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date, or text your address and we will confirm the next open window for your area.
Gautier gutter cleaning is priced from the stories and the size of the house, and we give the number by phone or text. Send a photo of the front and tell us the stories, and the quote is the price we charge.
Our customers here book gutter maintenance in the spring after the seed and pollen drop, and again in the fall after the last leaves. If you wait past the first heavy rainfall of the fall, the wet leaf mat is already in the gutters and clogged downspouts take longer to clear, so the slot takes longer to open.
Most slots for cleaning services in Gautier come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. We do not promise same-day work unless the calendar has a gap that day.
No. The gutter cleaning process runs outside, the crew does not come inside, and photos of every run and downspout reach 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 outlet until the water runs clean at the bottom. Debris removal is included in the price. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. Under guards we find needles, seed casings and grit packed on top of the screen, and the water never gets in. We lift the panels, clean underneath, flush the downspouts and reseat the guards, so you get your gutters back in working order.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem, and it is not moving water away from your home. 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. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before they start, never after. The balance for cleaning and maintenance is charged once the job is clean and finished, with the photos on your phone.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
