Our own crew cleans the whole gutter system in Boulder City NV, and we flush every downspout, test the flow and haul everything away. You get photos of every run before we leave, so you can see each one clean. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover hangs over the house, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Nevada, most customers book in spring and fall, and we do the same work on every visit.
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 big it is, and what is sitting 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. A clean estimate starts with those three answers. Companies that run gutter cleaning services by the linear foot land in a similar place per foot, but the per-foot math leaves out the height and the pitch of the house, which is where the time goes.
Here is what moves a quote on our jobs. A third story or a steep roof that we cannot walk changes the crew and the equipment. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the back run. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted buildup, and a clog like that takes longer to clear. A twig wedged in a downspout elbow is another clog that can hold back a whole run. A run that sags under the packed debris adds time too. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time on both ends. Once the run is clean, the water flow test takes a few minutes. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included in the price and never billed as extras. We price gutters and downspouts as one job, so nothing shows up later as an add-on. If anything we find changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is an example from a house in the older part of town with a heavy canopy over the back. Gutters that had not been opened in several years held a full season of leaves and seeds, and one clogged downspout had to be cleared from the upper side before water would run. Once that downspout ran clean, the crew moved on to the next run. That detail is what set the crew time, and we told the owner before the first ladder went up. The same pattern shows up on many boulder city homes, and it is why we ask about tree cover before we give a number. We quote residential and commercial jobs the same way, and Boulder City homeowners see the reasoning on the phone.
To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories and rough square footage. We will give you a price you can plan around, and we will clean your gutters the way we described. Regular gutter cleaning is priced the same way, house by house.

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.
Across Nevada, most customers book twice a year: in mid to late July, after the spring seed and pollen drop, and in late October to November, after the last leaves are down. Gutters that are clean in July still fill up before November. When we open a gutter in July we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows. In November it is leaves and debris soaked into a wet mat, with needles mixed in, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we find runs that sag or have pulled from the fascia by the rainy months that follow. A fascia board that stays wet that long can rot, and a run that sits low can lead to structural damage.
Under heavy tree cover we see customers on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits and the gutter fills back up faster than a twice-a-year clean can keep up with. Boulder City averages 4.8 inches of rain a year, and its wettest months are January, February and March, so a rain gutter that is clean in late fall gets tested by the heavy rainfall of the new year. Across Nevada, monsoon storms can drop half an inch to an inch of rain in under an hour, and a packed gutter leaves that rainwater nowhere to go. On lots with few or no trees, once a year in late fall is usually enough. Houses with gutter guards get cleaned less often, but the surface along the roofline still has to be cleared, because a mat of grit sitting on the guard sheds water over the edge in a storm.
We do not have one schedule for every house. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, based on what we found in the gutter and up top. A blockage or a leak that keeps coming back is a sign the drainage needs a second look, and we will say so in the report. A regular schedule helps protect your home from water damage, and choosing the right tier is how you keep your gutters working between visits. Regular gutter maintenance is what keeps the fascia off the repair list.
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 runs cleaning services in boulder city from the nearest base, and we cover the surrounding areas too. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text: tell us the stories, the rough square footage and whether trees hang over the house, and send a photo of the house front if that is easy. Lead times change with the season, and we will tell you the first date we have when you call. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows, late spring and late fall, so the earlier you book, the better your odds of getting the date you want. A clean first visit keeps the schedule simple. Call (866) 435-6328 to get your gutters on the schedule, and keep water away from your home once the downspouts are flowing.
When the crew arrives we call before we come, nobody needs to be home, and we set the ladder stand-offs so the landscape under the eaves stays put. Anything the crew sees up high that is outside gutter cleaning gets photographed and reported. Booking a regular schedule of cleanings is the simplest way to keep up, and the gutter cleaning process is the same for every Boulder City visit. Whether you are a first-time homeowner or have had us out before, the steps stay the same, and you will know the day before what time we are coming. Booking Boulder City gutter cleaning takes a few minutes, and the crew keeps each run clean once it is open. Cleaning and maintenance visits are booked the same way, and so are our other gutter services, so ask for whichever you need.
The number comes from the house, not a fixed rate. Stories and size set the crew time, and we give you a number by phone or text before we book. Our cleaning services in Boulder City are priced that way on every house.
Across Nevada, most customers book in mid to late July and again in late October to November. For Boulder City homes we tie the date to what is in the gutter, and if you wait longer than that, we find the seed and leaf load packed into the downspouts and the gutter may already be sagging.
Most of our slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. If we have an opening sooner, we will tell you on the phone.
No. Our crew works outside and does not come inside. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets in while the ladders are up. Ladder stand-offs keep the ladder off the gutter lip, so the landscape under the eaves stays put, and we send photos of every run to your phone before the truck leaves.
Yes, every downspout is flushed and flow-tested, and clogged downspouts get cleared from whichever end the crew can reach. We check the whole gutter system and that the water away from your home is leaving at the outlet. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes. On our jobs we find needles, seed casings and grit sitting on top of the guards, and that mat stops water from getting in. Guarded gutters usually take less time, but the surface still needs clearing and the run has to be clean before we leave.
A gutter that is clean and still spills water over the edge in rain has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. 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, and a gutter left spilling for long can cause structural damage.
Yes. A rain gutter still collects dust and grit, so on lots with few or no trees, once a year in late fall is usually enough. Leaves and debris from the street build up anyway.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
