Our crew cleans your gutters, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, the buildup hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave, so you know they came out clean. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is over the house, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Texas, most of our customers book in spring and fall, and we keep it that way on purpose.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price for a gutter cleaning service depends on stories, square footage and what is sitting 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. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place once they add up a whole house, though we do not quote that way. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will give you a figure before anyone climbs a ladder.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep pitch you cannot walk takes longer and needs more equipment. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the back run. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted buildup, and that takes longer to clean by hand. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time on both ends of the visit. Flushing, flow testing and haul-off of the leaves and debris we pull out are included and never billed as extras. If anything we find changes the job, like soft fascia or structural damage, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Most of our work here is on residential properties, and the pattern repeats. We see clog after clog on brownwood homes where the leaves and twigs from one fall have turned into a dense mat that holds water against the fascia board until it sags. On a house like that, the crew clears the buildup out of the rain gutter, flushes the clogged downspouts, and confirms the water flow and drainage run clear to the outlet, which keeps water away from the foundation. We handle residential and commercial jobs alike, and commercial properties are quoted per building. Whatever the building, the number you hear on the phone is the one you pay.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $195 | from $255 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $170 | from $225 | from $295 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $200 | from $265 | from $345 |
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 Texas, most of our customers book twice a year, in spring after the seed and pollen drop, and again in fall after the last leaves come down. In spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows at the bottom of each pipe, a common blockage we clear. In fall it is the leaf and twig load, and in a freeze-belt city the first ice and the ice dams that form at the eave. On houses that skipped the fall visit, we have found runs that sagged or pulled loose by March. Here in Brownwood TX, the fall visit usually lands in November to early December, but the wet leaf mat that holds rainwater is already a problem by then. Brownwood gets about 30.6 inches of precipitation a year, and the wettest months are May, June and October, so heavy rainfall finds a full gutter fast.
Tiers, as we see them on our jobs. Twice a year covers most houses. Under heavy tree cover, or near a busy road or construction, the gutter fills faster and we see a clog every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the pipes between visits. Few or no trees means once a year in late fall is usually enough. Guards mean fewer visits, but the surface still needs a clean, since a guard only holds back the big stuff while the grit and paste come through. Debris removal is part of every visit either way, so nothing is left on the roof.
After a clean first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, based on what we found in your gutters, and we give you a written estimate for it. Regular cleanings on that schedule keep up with the cleaning and maintenance the house needs.
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 works out of the nearest base, which keeps the drive short and the calendar honest. Homeowners can book a brownwood gutter cleaning visit by calling (866) 435-6328 or texting a photo of the house front. Give us the stories, the rough size and whether trees hang over the house, and we quote the job the same day. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, so get your gutters on the books early in those seasons to keep your slot open.
A homeowner in the surrounding areas usually finds that regular gutter cleaning helps protect your home from water damage, and if you keep your gutters on a schedule, the whole gutter system stays sound. Our crew cleans gutters and downspouts in one pass, will flush every downspout, and checks flow on each run, so the water moves away from your home instead of pooling by the foundation. If your house has gutter guards, we lift them, clear underneath and reseat them. If you have questions about the gutter services we offer, ask when you call and we will answer them plainly.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it to you by phone or text before we schedule. We do not quote a range here because the same two-story house can be a different job depending on what is in the gutters. Once we have the house details, you get a clean number, and that is the price on the invoice.
Good gutter maintenance means booking in spring and in fall, once the seed drop and the leaf drop are finished. If you wait longer than that, the clog gets worse and the water has more time to rot the fascia. Across Brownwood, the same spring and fall rhythm holds, and under heavy tree cover we see customers on a shorter schedule, every three to four months.
Most slots come up within the week for our gutter cleaning services in Brownwood, and we confirm a date when you call. We will tell you the first open day on the phone, and we do not promise same-day unless the calendar actually has room that day.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked, move any landscape beds away from the ladder feet, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, our gutter cleaning process includes a flush of every downspout and a check that the water leaves at the outlet. If a pipe feeds an underground drain line and water is not leaving, we tell you. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards stop leaves, but on our jobs we find needles, seed casings and grit working through and sitting on top of the guard, and once that mat is wet the water runs off the front edge. We lift the guards, clean out what is underneath, and reseat them, so the water actually gets in.
If the gutter is clean and still spills water over the edge in rain, the problem is usually slope, capacity or outlet size, not debris. Water backing up behind the trough can also turn into a leak at the fascia, so send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. The number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to it before any work starts, never after.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
