Our own crew cleans gutters in Whitney, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, the mess hauled off, and photos of every run on your phone before we leave. The trough is clean when the truck pulls away. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our Whitney customers book in the spring and fall, and we have been on those roofs enough to know what the season leaves behind. Call (866) 435-6328 or book by text.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price depends on stories, square footage 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. Some companies price per linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the run count is added up, but we would rather give you one number for the whole house. Our gutter cleaning services price the same way on commercial properties, one number built from the stories, the roof area and the run count.
On our jobs the things that push a quote up are consistent. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk safely, 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, so the back run sits higher than it looks from the driveway. Gutters that have not been opened in years arrive packed with compacted grit, a clog that takes far longer to clear than a seasonal leaf load. Guards on a gutter system we have to lift and reseat add time on every section. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-off are included and never billed as extras. A gutter can look clean from the ground and still choke its water flow at the elbow, and that gets priced before work starts, not after. If anything we find changes the job, you hear about it on the phone first, not on the invoice.
Where we have cleaned on whitney homes, the quote moved for reasons that were visible from the ground: a long run of rain gutter that held leaves and debris from a large canopy, and a drainage path that was clogged before the first visit. Those jobs are where we learned to check each downspout end to end, because a sag, a buildup at the elbow or a leak at a seam can look fine from below and still send water over the edge. A clogged downspout is what starts most of the structural damage and fascia rot we see, and any downspout that cannot carry water away from the foundation is quoted as a repair, not a cleaning. Our crew quotes the job after a photo of the front of the house and three answers, and we tell you why the number is what it is.
| 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.
Most of our Whitney customers book twice a year, once after the seed and pollen drop and again after the last leaves. Across Nevada, the spring visit falls in mid to late July. In Whitney the fall visit runs late December to January, where the ground freezes and the first ice forms at the eave. In spring we find seeds, seed casings, twig fragments and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows, and a clean run there is what we leave behind. On houses that skipped the fall visit, a clog at the elbow holds water through the wettest months here, January, February and August, and a run that was already sagging can pull loose under it.
Under heavy tree cover, we see customers on a schedule of every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the rain gutter and the clogged downspouts between visits. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is usually enough to keep the roofline draining and the trough clean. Gutter guards cut how often the trough fills, but the surface still needs clearing, so the schedule shortens less than most people expect. Across Nevada, monsoon cells can drop half an inch to an inch of rain in under an hour, and that heavy rainfall is the test a blocked run fails first. Near a busy road or active construction, we see the same pattern as heavy cover.
When we open a gutter, we look for a blockage at the outlet first, because that is where the water stops. Our crew checks the full run and the downspout ends until the water runs clean at the outlet, then tells you which tier your lot actually needs. A regular gutter cleaning service on your schedule is the easiest way to keep the rainwater moving away from the home and across the landscape, and the estimate for each visit is the same whether it is your first or your fifth.
If you book with us through the site, the regular schedule is set on the first visit and written into your record, so the next date is never a guess. Whenever you clean your gutters between our visits, check the downspouts too, since a clog there is what the water finds first. For residential and commercial jobs in Whitney NV, we set a debris removal schedule that matches how fast the leaves come down, and the same goes for residential properties with large roofs.
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 Whitney from the nearest base, and we book a slot by phone or text once we have your stories, your approximate square footage and whether there are trees over the roof. Call (866) 435-6328 and the crew gives you the first open date while you are on the line. A photo of the front of the house helps us see the roofline before we call back, but it is not required. The two busy windows are spring and late fall, when the seeds and leaves are heaviest and our calendar fills first. Whitney gutter cleaning is booked the same way on every house, with the price set before the first ladder goes up.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. If you want to keep your gutters clear between visits, we can schedule the next cleaning when the first one is done so you are not depending on a reminder. Every homeowner gets the same process on every one of our cleanings, and our customers in surrounding areas book the same way. Our gutter cleaning process runs in a set order: we flush every downspout, check the outlets and clear the trough, so the trough comes out clean and the water has a clear path away from the home. Whatever the house, we work to protect your home from water damage by clearing the gutters and downspouts and the outlets in one pass.
If you are not sure a gutter cleaning service is the right call, send us the photo and we will tell you what we see. Our gutter services stop at what we can see and clear, and we would rather tell you the trough is clean than sell you a visit you do not need.
The number comes from stories and size, and we quote it by phone or text once we know those and whether there are trees over the roof. Whitney homeowners get the same number on the invoice that they heard on the phone.
Our fall visit here runs late December to January, after the last leaves are down, and across Nevada the spring visit falls in mid to late July. Gutter maintenance is set around those two visits. Wait past the fall visit and the January and February rains can lift runs that were already sagging.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the exact date when you call. We do not promise same-day unless we have an open crew that day. Our cleaning services in Whitney run on the same calendar, so ask for the first open date.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves. The photos show every run clean before the truck pulls away.
Yes, we flush the downspouts and check the water flow at the outlet so it runs onto the landscape away from your home. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
On our jobs, guards keep leaves out of the trough, but needles, twigs, seed casings and grit still settle on top and into the downspouts. The surface of a guarded gutter system still needs clearing, though less often than an open gutter.
A clean gutter that still sheets water over the edge is usually a slope or capacity problem, not a cleaning problem, and water spilling over it is how fascia rot starts. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is. A test in heavy rainfall shows the problem faster than a dry look, so send that one.
It should not. If we find something that changes the job, we tell you and you agree before work starts, not after. Cleaning and maintenance are quoted together, so the one clean number covers both. Get your gutters quoted at (866) 435-6328 and that is the number you pay.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
