Our own crew cleans gutters on Hobbs homes, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, leaves hauled away, 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 hangs over the house, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 for a phone quote. Across New Mexico, spring visits run late May to June, and most Hobbs customers book the fall visit for November to early December.
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 in the gutters. Our gutter cleaning services are quoted 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 once the gutter length is counted, though that is a different way of arriving at the same figure.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement or sloped lot that raises the effective height of the roofline, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with compacted leaves, and guards on the gutter system that we have to lift and reseat before we can clear the run beneath them. Downspout flushing, flow testing and cleanup are included and are never billed as extras. Left alone, a twig or a clog at the downspout elbow backs water up into the trough, and that can turn into rot and structural damage in the fascia. If something changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
On Hobbs homes, the heaviest quotes have come from places where the gutters carried a full season of leaves and debris and the clogged downspouts were packed at the elbows. A rain gutter holding a season of wet leaves is heavier than most people expect, and clearing that buildup takes longer than a light cleaning, so we say so up front. The same goes for runs that are beginning to sag, where poor drainage usually means the slope is off, and we check the slope and the hangers before we promise a clean finish. Where a gutter is still throwing water over the edge after it is clear, the water flow is limited by slope or capacity, and we tell you that plainly instead of selling a second visit. Water away from the foundation is the goal, and we measure it by what comes out of the bottom of each downspout.
We are the gutter cleaning service that does this work, and the same three questions come up on most calls: how many stories, how big the house is, and whether the trees hang over the roof. Calls about commercial properties get the same three questions, and we tell you on the phone whether the job fits our crew. If you text us a photo of the front of the house, we can usually give you a firm number before we talk again. We are not a rate card, and we do not quote from one.
We do not repair, install or sell gutter products. If the crew finds a hanger pulled loose, a seam dripping or a run sitting flat, we photograph it and put it in the report, and what to do about it is your decision.

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 two cleanings a year, one in spring and one in fall. Across New Mexico, spring visits run late May to June, and in Hobbs the fall visit usually lands in November to early December. In spring the seeds, seed casings and pollen paste are the main load, and they clog the elbows. In fall it is the leaf mat, and a homeowner who skips the fall visit usually finds sagging runs and pulled hangers by the time the first hard weather arrives.
For a landscape with heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the schedule that holds, because the needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. With few or no trees, once a year in late fall is enough. Near busy roads or active construction, we move closer to the quarterly end. After the first clean we tell you which tier your lot actually needs.
Across New Mexico, the monsoon puts most of the year's rain down in short, violent cells. Hobbs averages 13.8 inches of rain a year, with the wettest months in May, August and September, so a single heavy rainfall can send water over a full run. Freeze risk is real here too, since water sitting in a full gutter over winter can freeze and pull at the hangers.
Our crews clean gutters across the area, and regular gutter cleaning keeps rainwater moving where it belongs. A blockage left through a rainy season turns a simple clean into a bigger job, so the calendar matters more than any one visit. Plan to clean your gutters ahead of the May rains, and each visit includes debris removal so nothing is left in the trough or on the lawn. Cleaning and maintenance on a set calendar is easier than a clog that backs up into the fascia.
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 cover Hobbs NM from our own crews. Hobbs gutter cleaning is done for Hobbs homeowners who want the job right the first time. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text, give us the stories, the approximate square footage and whether trees hang over the eaves, and we give you an estimate on the spot. If the house is easy to see, a photo of the front helps us confirm the number before the crew is scheduled. Ask about gutter services beyond cleaning on the call, and we will tell you what we do and do not handle.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, so the earlier you book, the easier it is to get the date you want. Residential and commercial jobs both go on this calendar, so ask about commercial properties when you call and we will say whether the job fits. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. Lead time depends on the season, and we confirm the actual date for the clean when you call.
Our crews serve homes across Hobbs and the surrounding areas, and if you have a second property nearby we can often schedule both visits on the same run. Residential properties get the same clean and the same photo report. Along the way we check for any leak at a seam and note it. We are here to keep your gutters working, flush every downspout so the water runs away from your home, and protect your home from water damage before the next heavy rain.
Our cleaning services in Hobbs are priced from stories and size, and we give the number to you by phone or text. We do not work from a price sheet, and we do not guess; the number we quote is the number we charge.
Most of our customers book a spring visit and a fall visit. Across New Mexico, spring visits run late May to June, and in Hobbs the fall visit lands in November to early December. In spring the seeds and pollen pack the elbows, and in fall the leaf mat needs clearing before the weather turns, so book ahead to get your gutters clear before the monsoon.
Same-day depends on the calendar, so we confirm a date when you call. We will tell you the earliest date our crew can reach you, and booking early in the busy season gives you the most room to choose.
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 check the gutters and downspouts together, flush every downspout and flow-test it, so you know the drainage is moving. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards are part of the gutter system, and on our jobs they keep leaves out, but needles, seeds and grit still sit on top of the guard and pack the run beneath it. We clear the surface and check that water is still getting in.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge has a slope or capacity problem, not a debris problem. Left alone, that water can rot the fascia board behind the gutter. Send us a photo or a short video during heavy rainfall and we will tell you what it is, because the goal is water away from your home, not a bag full of debris.
Only if something we did not see from the ground changes the job, and in that case you hear it before work starts. Gutter maintenance is quoted firm on the phone, and the invoice matches it.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
