Our own crew comes out to clean gutters for Norman homeowners, and we flush every downspout, test the flow, haul the debris away and send photos of every run before we leave. 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. We have been doing spring and fall visits here for years, and most of our Norman customers book in those two windows. Call (866) 435-6328 to get your gutters on the schedule.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price depends on how many stories the house has, how much square footage it covers and what is 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 by the linear foot, and that gets to a similar place per foot, but the stories and the eave height matter more than the foot count on most Norman homes. We price residential and commercial jobs the same way, from those three questions, so residential properties and commercial properties get the same number.
On our jobs, a third story or a steep roof that cannot be walked changes the approach and the time on the ladder. A walk-out basement puts the back run much higher off the ground than the front, and a sloped lot does the same. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted debris and take longer to clean out, and any guards we have to lift and reseat add time. A sag in a run or a slow water flow usually means buildup in the trough, and drainage problems in the gutter system tend to show up first at the downspout. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and are never billed as extras. Gutters and downspouts get the same flush and flow test on every job. If something changes the job, you hear it before the crew starts, not on the invoice.
Our Norman jobs show this clearly. On one recent visit the house had two stories and a large tree shading the back run, and the crew found a full seed and leaf buildup in that run that needed a second pass before the downspouts would flush. We flagged the extra time on the phone before the visit, so the number on the invoice matched the quote. Every Norman quote we give follows the same three questions: stories, size and what is in the gutters, and we tell you the number before we arrive. Across the Norman homes we clean, that is how a clog, a sag or a slow water flow gets priced, from what we see up top rather than a rate card.
| 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.
Most Norman homeowners book two visits a year, once in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in late fall after the last leaves come down. Those two visits keep your gutters clear between storms. When we open a gutter here in late spring we usually find seeds, seed casings and a pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows, which is exactly where a rainwater blockage starts, and a twig or two wedged in the outlet is common. In fall the leaves and debris are the main problem, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs that sagged under ice by the first hard freeze.
Under heavy tree cover, needles and grit pack into clogged downspouts faster, and those customers are on every three to four months. Houses with few or no trees near the house usually need only one visit a year, in late fall. Gutter guards change the schedule a little, since leaves stay out, but the surface still needs clearing. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot needs, and that schedule is how we protect your home from water damage over the years. Keeping the rain gutter clean through the wettest months of the year, May, June and August, is the goal, since heavy rainfall is when a blocked run shows first.
The gutter itself is only part of the picture. Structural damage often starts at the fascia, with a bit of rot, or from a clog that has been sitting for a season, and it shows up as a leak inside before anyone sees it outside. Our crew checks the gutters and downspouts, the eave line and the roofline on every visit and photographs what we find. A clean trough tells you nothing about the slope, so we check that too. Clean your gutters on a schedule that fits your lot, and keep water away from your home through the heavy storm season across Oklahoma.
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 provides cleaning services in norman, OK and the surrounding areas, so drive time stays short on most Norman gutter cleaning calls. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text. Give us the stories, the rough size of the house and whether big trees hang over the house, and send a photo from the driveway if that is easy, since a clean shot of the gutter line tells us most of what we need. If your landscape has a lot of mature trees, mention it on the call. Lead time depends on the season, and the busiest windows are late spring and late fall, when the calendar fills fastest, so call (866) 435-6328 early in those months.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home. The crew works outside and does not come inside. If you want the gutter cleaning process walked through before you book, ask on the call and we will go through the steps. For a Norman homeowner who wants the house kept dry without thinking about it, we handle the full cleaning and maintenance on one schedule, which is the gutter maintenance most Norman homes need, with regular gutter cleaning built in, so you never have to track when to clean it yourself. Ask us for a written estimate for our gutter cleaning services if that helps your planning, and we will put the scope and the number in writing, along with any of our gutter services you add.
The number for our gutter cleaning services comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text before we visit. We do not quote a range without those details, because the same two-story house can take much more time when the gutters are packed. A clean run goes faster than one full of seeds and grit, and that difference is what the quote reflects.
Our gutter services here book late spring and late fall, and those are the windows when we clean your gutters most often. In late spring we clear the seeds and pollen, and in fall we clear the leaves and debris before the first ice. On houses that skipped the fall visit we see the sags and loose runs by the first freeze.
Same-day depends on the day and the season. Regular gutter cleaning clients usually book ahead, but when you call we tell you the first slot we have and confirm the date with you, and most slots come up within the week.
No. The crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of the gutters and downspouts to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and a clean path to the back helps the crew move.
Yes, we flush every downspout and check drainage at the outlet, because a downspout that does not carry water away from the foundation is not finished. If a downspout feeds an underground drain line that will not clear from the surface, we tell you and quote that work separately, with no surprise charge.
Yes. On our jobs guards keep the leaves out, but needles, seed casings and grit sit on top of the guard and wash into the gutter system, and guards do not stop clogged downspouts from forming below them. A guarded rain gutter still needs the surface cleared and the downspouts flushed.
If a gutter that is clean still spills water over the edge in heavy rainfall, the problem is usually slope or downspout size, not debris. Send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is. A run that has pulled away from the fascia is structural damage, and we say so. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. Residential properties and commercial properties both get the number before the crew arrives. If something we find changes the job, we stop and call you before going further, and the number on the invoice matches the quote you agreed to.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
