Our own crew runs a gutter service in Burleson TX, with every downspout flushed and flow-tested, the leaves hauled off, and 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 is over the house, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our customers here book in the spring and fall, and we can give you an estimate in the time it takes to answer three quick questions. Call (866) 435-6328 to start.
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 it over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Residential and commercial properties get quoted the same way. Other gutter cleaning services price by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once the house is measured, but we would rather give you one number from what we can see from the driveway and the rain gutter run.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk, means the crew works from a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder, and that takes longer. A walk-out basement or a sloped landscape raises the effective height of the back run. Gutters that have not been opened in years come out packed with compacted buildup, and that adds time to every run before it is clean. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too. Clearing gutters and downspouts, flushing, checking water flow and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. If something changes the job, you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Burleson homes range from older houses near the old downtown streets to newer builds on the edge of the city. On one recent job at a two-story house with heavy tree cover, what drove the quote was the leaves and debris packed into the back run and the clogged downspout that had been backing water up against the foundation. The crew cleared the buildup, flushed each downspout and left the run clean, and found no structural damage beyond some rot at one fascia joint, which we photographed and reported. You can see that job here: this case study. Text us a photo of the front of your house and we can usually tell you from it what your quote will look like.
| 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.
Most homeowners here book twice a year, in the spring and fall. Spring comes after the seeds and pollen drop, and across Texas that visit usually lands in late March to April. Fall is after the last leaves come down, November to early December. When we open a gutter here in May we find seeds packed to the elbow and a pollen paste sitting on the drainage path. When we open a gutter here in November we find a wet leaf mat that has been sitting since the first cold snap, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that have pulled loose by March.
Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the right schedule for most lots, because needles and grit pack the downspout between visits and the gutter line stays clogged. Lots with few or no trees usually do fine with one visit a year in late fall. Guarded gutters still need cleaning and maintenance, but less often, and gutter maintenance does not stop just because there are guards. Our crew walks the lot on the first visit, tells you which tier your gutters actually need, and sets how often to clean your gutters from there.
A clog that sits through a rainy season does damage, and heavy rainfall makes it worse. Burleson gets about 36.5 inches of rain a year, and March, May and October are the wettest months. Water that cannot get out of the gutter spills behind it, and a blockage at the downspout holds it there until the rainwater reaches the fascia along the roofline and starts a leak. A run that stays full long enough can sag. Keeping the system open moves water away from your home, which is the easiest way to protect your home from water damage, and a regular cleaning schedule costs far less than the repairs that come from water running where it should 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.
We work on residential properties across Burleson and the surrounding areas, and we cover them from the nearest crew base. Burleson gutter cleaning starts with a quote by phone or text, using stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the front of the house if that is easy to send. Call (866) 435-6328 to get your quote. Cleanings and gutter services fill up in two busy windows each year, the spring and the fall, so calling early in those months gets you a better slot. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit, so a busy homeowner does not have to take time off. A dependable crew that shows up when we said we would is the point, and the goal is to keep your gutters clean between storms.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it to you by phone or text. We ask a few quick questions and give you one figure. The number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. If you wait past the fall leaf drop, the wet leaf mat and any freeze damage get worse, and by March we see runs that have started to sag or have pulled loose. The sooner you get your gutters clean after leaf drop, the less work the crew has to do.
Most of our cleaning services here have slots within the week, and we confirm the date when you call. If you need something sooner, tell us when you call and we will check what the crew has open.
No. Our gutter cleaning process happens outside, and the crew does not come inside. We send photos of every run and downspout 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 flow-tested as part of the job. Where a downspout feeds an underground drain line, 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 quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes, even with gutter guards, the surface still needs clearing and every downspout still needs checking. On our jobs we find seed casings, pollen, grit and the odd twig sitting on top of the guards, and that stops water from getting in. The job is usually shorter than an open gutter, but it is still needed.
A gutter system that is clean and still overflows in the rain has a slope, capacity or downspout size problem, not a clog problem. Send us a photo or a short video of it in heavy rainfall and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. If we find something that changes the job, we tell you and you agree to it before work starts, never after. The number we quote on the phone is what you pay.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
