Our own crew cleans gutters here, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, leaves and grit hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave, so you can see the gutters come out clean. 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 you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Texas, most of our customers book in spring and fall, and we keep the same crew on each visit so you know who is on the ladder.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price for our gutter cleaning services depends on stories, square footage and what is in the gutters and downspouts. We give an estimate over the phone or by text from those factors, 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 a single number from stories and size is easier to check against your house.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a pitch too steep to walk takes more time and more safety setup, however simple the gutter system looks from the ground. A walk-out basement puts the back run much higher than it looks from the yard. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out with a heavy buildup of packed grit and wet leaves, and that takes longer to clean out. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time on both ends. Downspout flushing, drainage checks and debris removal are included and never billed as extras. Anything that changes the job is raised before work starts, never on the invoice.
Here is what we have seen on our jobs here. A house with a steady clog in the back run turned out to have clogged downspouts at the lower elbow, where a twig, leaves and grit had packed in and the water could not get through. We cleared it, flushed the line and showed the homeowner the water flow at the outlet before we left. Left alone, that kind of blockage sags the run and can lead to structural damage and rot at the fascia. Most of the Grand Prairie homes we clean are two-story homes with a moderate tree load, and for them a regular gutter cleaning schedule keeps the sag from starting.
Residential properties and commercial properties are priced the same way, from the building and what is in the gutters. If you have a question about a specific house or building, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the gutters, and we will give you a number from what we see. The landscape around a property shows up in the quote more than the square footage does. We do not give a price from a list without looking at the property, because the same gutter can be a quick job or a long one depending on what is in it.
| 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 in Grand Prairie, TX book twice a year: in the late spring after seed and pollen drop, and in late fall after the last leaves come down. In spring we find seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In fall it is the leaf load, which sits wet on the gutter floor and holds rainwater against the roofline through the rainy months.
When we open a gutter here in May we find the clog starts at the first elbow and works its way up. Here it averages 40.1 inches of rain a year, and across Grand Prairie the wettest months are May, June and October. A gutter that is not clean before the heavy rainfall season can overflow at the corners and leave water running down the fascia behind it. That is the first sign of a blockage that will turn into a leak if it is left alone. Keep your gutters clean through those months and you protect your home from water damage.
Under heavy tree cover, and with trees in surrounding areas dropping needles onto the roof, every three to four months is the schedule that keeps the gutters running, because needles and grit pack into the pipe between visits. We flush every downspout on each visit, so the rain carries water away from your home. Near a busy road or a construction site the same schedule applies, because the grit settles faster. Few or no trees over the house means once a year in late fall is enough, though a single twig can still start a clog. Gutter guards need less frequent cleaning, but the surface still has to be cleared on the same visit, because a mat of needles and grit on top of the guard stops the water from getting in.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and how many cleanings a year it takes to keep the gutters running. Book the first cleaning, and we will show you what we found at each run before we leave.
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 cleaning services in Grand Prairie run from the nearest base, and we keep a regular route through the neighborhoods where we have done the most work. Booking for Grand Prairie gutter cleaning starts with a quote by phone or text from stories, size and tree cover, plus a photo of the house front if that is easy. Lead time depends on the week, and we give you the date when you call, not a promise we cannot keep. The two busiest windows of the year are late spring and late fall, when the calendar fills fastest.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home. When you book a gutter cleaning process with us, you hear the arrival window the day before and again when the crew is on the way. The visit is outside only, and the photos of every run go to your phone before the truck leaves. To get your gutters on the calendar before a heavy rainfall, book early in the season, since that is the easiest way to get a slot. Our gutter services cover the cleaning, the flush and the photos, and any gutter maintenance beyond that is quoted before we start.
We keep the same crew on the route where possible, so the people up the ladder know the house from the last visit. If you have a gutter cleaning and maintenance question, or want to clean your gutters between visits, call (866) 435-6328 and we will answer it from our own jobs, not a script.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give you an estimate by phone or text. We do not quote a price range without seeing the property, because the same two-story house can be a quick job or a long one depending on what is in the gutters.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. If the gutters wait past the first heavy rainfall, we usually find water already running over the front edge. Under heavy tree cover, with leaves and debris settling in the trough, the schedule is closer to every three to four months.
Same-day depends on the week and the route. Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call so you know exactly when the crew arrives.
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 in the gutter system is flushed and we check the flow at the outlet. If a downspout drains into an underground line, we check that water is leaving at the end. Clearing a buried line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes, a guarded rain gutter still needs cleaning, though less often. On our jobs we find a mat of needles and grit on top of the guard, and the water runs off the front edge instead of going in. We clean the surface and check that water is getting through.
A gutter that is clean and still overflows in the rain usually has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. Send us a photo or a short video of it 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. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before work starts, never after. The number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
