Our own crew will clean the gutters in Dickinson. On every visit we flush every downspout, flow-test it, haul the load away, leave the yard clean, and send photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your 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. We have run this route across North Dakota for years, and most of our bookings land 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 in the gutter system, clean or packed. We quote it 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 per foot of run, but the lineal count alone misses what the crew actually climbs over.
On our jobs the things that move a quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run far up from grade, and gutters nobody has opened in years. A gutter with compacted buildup takes longer than a clean one, and a clog that has been there a season costs more to clear than one caught early. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too, and we say so before we start.
Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. Our crew checks the water flow and drainage at the outlet of every downspout, and if a line drains into the ground we tell you where it goes before we touch it. Anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, never on the invoice. Dickinson gutter cleaning is priced this way on every house, so the homeowner sees the same number we quoted.
Here is what a Dickinson job looked like recently. On one house in town the gutters were packed with leaves and debris on a two-story roof. The crew found a sag at the run and a leak at the seam where water was pooling behind the fascia. We cleared the leaves and needles, flushed the clogged downspouts, and reset the run so water away from the foundation was moving again. We quoted it by phone from the stories and the tree cover, and it went out the door at the number we gave.
Gutter cleaning services for commercial properties follow the same method we use for residential properties. A gutter cleaning service on a larger building simply means more runs and longer hauls. The same checks run on Dickinson homes, too. Before a crew leaves a job, every downspout has been checked for structural damage and every run has been cleared and left clean, so rain gutter water flows the way it should. That is the whole point of the visit, and it is why the number holds.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $185 | from $240 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $165 | from $215 | from $280 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $190 | from $250 | from $325 |
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.
Across North Dakota, the spring melt is the main event, and the spring visit falls in mid to late June, after the seed and pollen drop. The fall visit falls in late September to October, after the last leaves are down. On our Dickinson ND route, regular gutter cleaning is booked around those two windows, and each gutter cleaning service for residential and commercial buildings follows the same calendar. The spring and fall visits clear the seed casings, pollen paste and leaf load that stop rainwater at the elbows before it can freeze in place.
When we open a gutter here in May we find seeds packed to the elbow and a thin paste of pollen sitting in the trough. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs sag and pull loose by March under the weight of ice. Freeze risk is real in this city, so a blockage that stays through winter, or a clog left sitting, becomes an ice dam at the roofline, and that is a bigger job than a routine clean.
Tiers follow the lot. Under heavy tree cover, cleanings every three to four months is what we see, because needles and grit pack each downspout between visits. On a lot like that, cleaning and maintenance runs on a tighter schedule, and heavy rainfall in May, June and July washes the buildup straight into the downspout. With few or no trees, a clean gutter once a year in late fall is usually enough. Gutters with guards can go less often, but the surface still has to be cleared, because a wet leaf mat sitting on a guard runs straight over the edge.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and we put it in the photo report so you can check it yourself. That first visit also sets the schedule that will keep your gutters clear between cleanings, and debris removal is part of every visit, so the goal is to clean your gutters before the next storm. Call (866) 435-6328 for an estimate, or text a photo of the gutters and we will book your spring or fall date.
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 has cleaned gutters and downspouts across Dickinson, and the work covers the homes and buildings in the surrounding areas. We handle residential and commercial jobs from the same base, and our gutter services are the same either way. Booking is simple: for Dickinson gutter cleaning we give you a quote by phone or text from your stories, your square footage and your tree cover, and a photo of the front of the house helps if it is easy to send. Most Dickinson homeowners get a slot within the week, and we confirm a date when you call.
The gutter cleaning process starts with a phone call, and the calendar fills in two busy windows, late spring and early fall, so book early if your house needs a clean gutter before the rainy season or before the first freeze. Call to get your gutters on the calendar, and keep your gutters on a schedule after that. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. You get photos of every run before the truck leaves.
A gutter cleaning is one of the cheapest ways to protect your home from water damage, and it keeps rainwater moving away from your home. Our crew flushes every downspout, clears any twig or leaf that has lodged in the run, and checks for a leak at each seam. If your house has gutter guards, the crew lifts the panels and clears what sits on top, because a wet mat stops the water getting in. Each of the cleanings ends with the same check, and the work is done from the ground and the ladder, so there is nothing to set up inside and the yard stays clean. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you what the first visit needs.
Q: What does gutter cleaning cost for a two-story house in Dickinson? A: The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and the condition of the gutter system, and we give it by phone or text. The number we quote is the number on the invoice, and downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included.
Q: When should I clean gutters in Dickinson? A: Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in fall. If you want to clean your gutters before the first hard freeze, book the fall visit for late September or October. A clog that waits past the freeze can become an ice dam at the eave, and water that backs up behind it can rot the fascia. That turns a cleaning into a repair conversation.
Q: Do you offer same-day gutter cleaning in Dickinson? A: We offer cleaning services in Dickinson on a set schedule, and most slots come up within the week. We confirm a date when you call, and we will tell you if a sooner window opens. Call (866) 435-6328 and ask about the next open date to get your gutters on the calendar.
Q: Do I need to be home? A: No. The gutter cleaning process runs outside, the crew does not come inside, and photos go to your phone. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Q: Do you flush each downspout and check where it drains, including underground lines? A: Yes, every downspout is flushed and checked at the outlet. If a line drains underground, we tell you where it goes so the water ends up away from your home and off the landscape. Clearing a buried line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it.
Q: If my gutters have guards, do they still need cleaning? A: Yes. On our jobs guards keep leaves out, but needles, seeds and grit still sit on top and cut the water flow. We clear the surface, flush each downspout underneath, and leave the gutter clean. Gutter maintenance with guards is lighter than an open system, but it is not zero.
Q: What happens if the gutters still overflow after you leave? A: A gutter that runs clean but still sheets water over the edge during heavy rainfall has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a blockage problem. Send us a photo or video in the rain and we will tell you what it is.
Q: Will the price change once the crew is on the roof? A: Only if something changes the job, and you hear about it before work starts. The quote from the phone call is the number on a clean invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
