Our own crew cleans gutters in Converse, and every downspout is flushed and flow-tested before we leave. Debris is hauled away, not blown onto your lawn, and you get photos of every run. The price comes from your stories, your home's size and how much tree cover hangs over the gutter line, and the number we give on the phone is the number on your invoice. We have been doing this work here through the spring and fall visits, and most of our customers book those two windows every year.
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 give an estimate over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we give is the number we charge. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place, but we would rather give you one number you can check against the job.
On our jobs the things that move the price are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run well up in the air, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with compacted leaves and grit, and guards we have to lift and reseat to get at the trough. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. If something we find changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
On one job, a house with a steep front roof and heavy shade had gutters packed with a clog of wet leaves and grit, and the clogged downspouts were sending water over the front edge. The crew cleared the runs, flushed every downspout until the water flow ran clean at the bottom, and photographed the sag in the front run so the owner could see it. The number was set from the stories and the tree cover before the first ladder went up, and that is the number that was billed.
Gutter cleaning services are priced the same way for residential and commercial properties: we look at the building, the stories and what is in the drainage path, and quote from that. Converse homes and residential properties get the same photos and flushing, and a clean gutter gets the same price, whatever the gutter system looks like. Our gutter cleaning process is the same on both kinds of building. If you want a regular gutter cleaning plan on the spring and fall schedule, the quote covers the whole visit.
| 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 of our customers book twice a year. Across Texas, the spring visit usually falls late March to April, and the fall visit lands late November to December, after the last leaves come down. In the spring we find seeds and pollen packed into the downspout elbows. In the fall it is the wet leaf buildup, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have found runs that sagged loose before winter was over. A rain gutter packed with wet leaves cannot drain. Rainwater has nowhere to go, and that is how a blockage turns into water running down the siding and into the eave.
Converse gets about 33.6 inches of rain a year, and May, June and September are the wettest months, so a clean gutter earns its keep then. Across Texas, Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms bring heavy rainfall, and a clog at the front run can overflow fast. Freezing is a real risk in winter here, and water trapped in a clogged gutter can ice up at the edge. Water that sits in the trough finds the first leak at a seam and works into the fascia, and rot follows, which is how a small problem turns into structural damage. Regular visits protect your home from water damage.
Under heavy tree cover, we see customers on a three to four month schedule, because needles, a twig or two, and grit drop off the roofline and pack the downspouts between visits. A home with few or no trees does well once a year in late fall. Near a busy road or construction, we move it closer to every three to four months as well. Gutter guards need less frequent visits, but the surface still has to be cleared, because a mat of leaves and grit on top of a guard stops the water just as well.
On one of our jobs with no trees over the house, the homeowner booked a single late fall visit each year and the crew found the gutters clean each time. On another under a canopy of trees in the same city, the crew goes back every three to four months, and every downspout is kept open between visits. Both are on the schedule that fits their lot.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and we put it in writing so you know when we are coming back. Keep your gutters on that calendar, because a clean run in May is a run that does not overflow in June. Repeat cleanings keep the schedule on track, and if you would rather we clean your gutters on a set calendar, say so when you book.
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 worked across Converse TX, and the neighborhoods we clean in most often are the ones with mature trees along the street and older gutters that have not been opened in years. Converse gutter cleaning booking starts with a quote by phone or text at (866) 435-6328. We ask for your stories, the approximate square footage and whether trees hang over the house, and a photo of the house front if that is easy to send. The number comes from those details, so there are no surprises when the crew arrives.
The two busiest windows on our calendar are the spring visit across Texas, late March to April, and the fall visit in late November to December, when customers are clearing out seed, pollen and leaves. Book early in those windows if you want a set date. Outside them, slots open up more readily, and customers in the surrounding areas book the same way. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit, so a clean run is what you come home to.
When you ask for the first visit, we will tell you the lead time for your part of the city. Once you have booked, the crew keeps the same schedule for every visit after that, so the gutter maintenance is on the calendar and you do not have to remember it. Our gutter services cover the whole cleaning and maintenance visit, and we check gutters and downspouts on every visit, and we flush every downspout, not just the front run. Any gutter guards on the house are cleared on the same visit. Every visit has one job: keep water away from your home, and get your gutters back to clean runs before we leave. If a run has pulled loose, we photograph it and tell you, so the landscape beds below it stay dry.
The number comes from stories and square footage, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front, and we will quote it from there. That quote is the amount you pay.
Our customers here book two visits. Across Texas the spring visit usually falls late March to April, and the fall visit lands late November to December. If the fall visit is skipped, we see runs that sag or pull loose by the next spring, so the late fall visit matters most.
Same-day slots depend on the calendar that week for our gutter cleaning services in Converse. Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call.
No. 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 and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, every downspout is flushed and watched until the water runs clean at the bottom, and we check where the outlet drains. Clearing an underground drain line is a separate job, and we price it before anyone touches it.
Yes. On our jobs guards keep leaves and debris out, but needles, seed casings and grit sit on top of the guard and mat down, and water stops going in. We clean the surface and check that water is still getting through.
A gutter that is clean and still spilling water over the edge has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. Send us a photo or a short video taken in the rain, and we will tell you what it is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. The number comes from stories, size and tree cover, and anything we find that changes the job is raised with you before work starts, never on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
