Our own crew cleans gutters in Las Cruces, leaves them clean, and every downspout gets flushed and flow-tested before we leave. Debris is hauled away, and you get photos of every run. The price comes from your stories, your square footage and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most Las Cruces homeowners book in spring and fall.
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 our gutter cleaning services over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Other companies price by the linear foot and land in a similar place per foot, but we would rather quote the whole house. The numbers on this page are for residential properties, and commercial properties are not priced from it.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder. A walk-out basement or a sloped landscape raises the effective height of the top run, so the back gutter sits higher than it looks from the yard. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted debris, and a clog like that takes longer to clean out than a seasonal load. Guards on the gutter system that we have to lift and reseat add time too. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, we raise it before work starts, not on the invoice.
On the residential side, a typical Las Cruces homeowner gets the same gutter cleaning process: a clean run, a flushed downspout, and a check that the water flow at each outlet carries water away from the house. When we open a rain gutter that has gone two seasons without service, a buildup of leaves and debris has usually turned to paste that holds water against the back edge and puts a sag in the run, before it becomes a leak. We would rather catch that on the first visit than see it turn into structural damage, or a board that starts to rot, by the next rain. Tell us what you are seeing, text a photo of the front of the house if it is easy, and we will tell you what the job looks like before we set a date.

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.
In Las Cruces NM, most of our customers book twice a year. Across New Mexico, the spring visit window runs late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit lands in November to early December, after the last leaves come down. When we open a gutter in the spring window, the seeds, seed casings and pollen paste are packed into the downspout elbows. In November it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that have sagged or pulled loose by the time winter weather arrives. Book both visits and the gutters are clean going into the monsoon, which across New Mexico puts most of the year's rain down in short violent cells.
Under heavy tree cover, the big trees over the roof, our customers are on every three to four months, because needles, grit and the odd twig pack the downspouts between visits. Lots with few or no trees usually need a single visit to clean your gutters in late fall. Gutter guards cut down how often the gutters need work, but regular gutter cleaning still applies, because a guard only keeps the surface clean for so long. When heavy rainfall hits, rainwater that cannot get past a clog or blockage backs up at the eave and finds the nearest seam.
Once we have seen your roofline, we tell you which of those tiers your lot needs, and the gutter cleaning service you book follows from it. There is no advice to take on faith here; we show you what we found at each run, clean or not.
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.
The crew covers Las Cruces and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and we book across Las Cruces as a whole. Getting a Las Cruces gutter cleaning estimate is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text us, tell us how many stories the house has, roughly how big it is and whether trees hang over the roof, and send a photo of the front if that is easy. Lead times change with the season, and we confirm a date when you call. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit.
The calendar fills in two stretches of the year, late spring and late fall, when the seeds and leaves are heaviest, so booking early for our gutter services in those windows helps. Outside those, cleanings are usually easier to fit in. Whatever the month, we keep your gutters and downspouts clean and clear, flush every downspout so the next storm has somewhere to send water away from your home, and protect your home from water damage at the eave and foundation. Get your gutters on the calendar early and keep them clean through the seasons, because regular cleaning and maintenance keeps the rest of the house drier.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and how much debris is in the gutters. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front, and we will give you the price before we set a date. Residential and commercial jobs are not quoted from this page.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and late fall. If you wait past the fall visit, we usually find sagging runs and ice-damaged eaves on the first visit of the new year.
Most slots come up within the week. We confirm a date when you call, and sometimes a sooner opening appears, so ask when you book.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout, clean or not, to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes. Every downspout is flushed, and where clogged downspouts will not clear from below, we work them from the top. We check the drainage at the outlet. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes. Seed fluff, leaves and grit thread through the guards and sit on top, and wet debris keeps water from getting in. Guards on a gutter system cut the work, but the surface still needs gutter maintenance, and a clean trough is what lets the water in.
If a clean gutter still sheets water over the edge in rain, the problem is usually slope or downspout size, not a clog. Send us a video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning.
It should not. Anything that changes the job is raised with you before work starts, and the number we quote 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.
