Our own crew cleans gutters and downspouts in Myers Corner, flushing every downspout, hauling away what comes out, and sending 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 roof, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on your invoice. Across New York, spring visits run late May to June, and we keep the same schedule for every house we clean.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
Our gutter cleaning services are priced from three things: stories, square footage and what is in the gutters. We give an estimate over the phone or by text, and the number we give is the number we charge. Some companies price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the length is counted, but we would rather a homeowner see one figure for the whole house.
On our jobs, the price moves for a few reasons. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out choked with leaves and debris, plus grit buildup at every elbow, and guards we have to lift, clean underneath and reseat add time. We flush every downspout and haul off what comes out, and both are included and never billed as extras. If anything changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Our local work follows the same logic. The Myers Corner homes we clean range from modest single-story ranches to two-story houses with a rain gutter run on every side, and what we find is what drives the number. Where a run has taken on a sag, the crew flushes the clogged downspouts from the top so the water flow carries water away from the foundation. A run like that, left longer, turns into structural damage. Every gutter system we price gets walked before the number is set, so the phone number and the invoice still match. We clean residential properties as well as commercial properties, and the same pricing rule applies to both: stories, size, condition, and nothing added at the end.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $225 | from $295 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $200 | from $260 | from $335 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $235 | from $305 | from $395 |
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 gutters here do well with two visits a year, one each spring and fall, with the fall visit running October to early November, after the last leaves come down. Across New York, the spring window runs late May to June, and regular gutter cleaning is the cleanest way to keep a gutter from overflowing. In spring we find seeds, seed casings, the odd twig and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In fall we find leaves matted in the trough, and where freezing starts we also find the first ice at the eave, and by March the runs on houses that skipped the fall visit bow or pull loose, with the fascia behind them starting to rot.
Under heavy tree cover, or near a busy road, a construction site or a landscape bed that drops mulch, the clog risk climbs fast, so those homes go on a three to four month schedule, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A house with few or no trees usually needs one visit a year in late fall. Gutter guards change the frequency, not the need: they keep the big leaves out, but the surface still needs a clean on our schedule.
When we open a gutter in Myers Corner NY in May, we find the same pattern we see every spring: a thin layer of grit in the bottom of the trough and a blockage at every elbow. Every visit follows the same steps. We clean the run, flush the downspout, and check the drainage at the outlet. Cleaning and maintenance go together on every visit. Every gutter cleaning service visit ends with photos of each run on your phone. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, so the schedule is based on your roofline and not on a guess.
Heavy rainfall hits hardest in June, August and September, so that is when a clogged run shows itself. The rainwater that cannot leave the trough spills over the edge and soaks the ground by the foundation. Clean your gutters before June, keep your gutters clear through August and September, and treat the whole gutter system as one job, because a single clog at one elbow is enough to overflow it.

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.

Our gutter services reach Myers Corner and the surrounding areas. Our crew works the streets, including the ones where the tree cover over each roof is heaviest and the homes sit closest to the road. Myers Corner homeowners get the same flush, the same debris haul and the same photos as every other house we clean across Myers Corner. Myers Corner gutter cleaning is simple to book: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a quote from stories, size and tree cover, so you can get your gutters on the calendar. Lead time depends on the calendar, and we will tell you the first open date when you call. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for an exterior visit.
Here the fall window runs October to early November. If you want a slot in those weeks, book early. Outside those windows, call and we will tell you the first open date. Debris removal is part of the visit, not an extra, and any leak at a seam gets photographed and flagged. The crew clears the gutters first and the glass only after the runs are clear, which is the order that helps protect your home from water damage and keeps the job clean.
Every price is built from the stories, the size of the house and what is in the gutters. Give us a call at (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front, and we work it out from those three things. No number appears on the invoice that was not discussed first.
Late spring and late fall are the two windows we suggest for clearing gutters. Here the fall window runs October to early November, after the leaves come down. Wait past that and the fall leaf mat is packed into the runs, and on houses that skipped the fall visit, the gutters bow by March and the fascia behind them can rot.
We offer cleaning services in Myers Corner on a booked calendar, so we do not promise same-day service. Call and we will give you the first open date.
No. Our crew works outside and never comes inside, and the ladders are set away from your home so nothing rests on the gutter lip. Tell us about any gate or pet before the visit, and the photos reach your phone once the runs are done.
Yes, we clean out and flush every downspout, then check the flow at the bottom. Where a line feeds an underground drain, we check that water is leaving at the outlet and tell you if it is not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is priced before anyone touches it.
Yes, guarded gutters still need attention. On our jobs we find seed casings, pollen and grit blown off the shingles sitting on top of the guard, and water that never gets in. We lift the panels, clear underneath, flush each downspout and reseat the guards.
A clean gutter that still sheds water over the edge usually has a slope, capacity or downspout size problem, not a clogged run. Tell us what you see, ideally with a short video taken during the rain, and we will say what it is. A second cleaning will not fix a slope problem, so we will not sell one.
It should not. The gutter cleaning process is built from stories, size and tree cover, and anything that changes the job is raised before work starts. Once we agree, the number on the invoice matches it.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
