Our own crew will clean your gutters, and we flush and flow-test every outlet before we leave. Debris is hauled off the property, and you get photos of every run before the truck pulls out.
The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most homeowners book a fall visit from December to early January, and across Texas spring visits run late March to April. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote.
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 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. A gutter cleaning service priced per linear foot usually lands in a similar place, but we would rather you know the full figure before the crew leaves the truck.
On our jobs, a third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and costs more to do safely. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline, and gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted leaf mat. Guards we have to lift and reseat add time too. Flushing, flow testing and haul-away are included in every gutter cleaning we do and are never billed as extras. If something changes the job, we raise it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Most of the Katy homes we clean have a clog in one or two runs that the homeowner never saw from the ground. When we open a rain gutter with a sag or heavy buildup, we flush the outlets and check whether the water flow is leaving through the drainage at the bottom. A gutter that is packed with leaves usually shows a clog at the elbow, and clogged downspouts are the most common reason gutters fail to carry water away from your home. Left alone, that kind of standing water can cause structural damage and wood rot in the fascia and soffit, and it can leak behind the trim. Text us one photo of the front of the house and tell us the story count, and we will give you the figure on the phone.
| 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, once in spring and once in fall, which fits the rainwater and roofline load for the area. Across Texas, spring visits run late March to April, and our fall visit runs December to early January. Katy gets about 49.1 inches of rain a year, and heavy rainfall in May, August and October is when the gutters work hardest. In spring we find the seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows. In fall it is leaves and debris, and if the house skipped the fall visit, the runs that sag or pull loose by the next season are the ones we get called to look at.
Under heavy tree cover in the landscape around the house, cleanings every three to four months are usually what keep the blockage from building up, because needles, twig fragments and grit pack the runs between visits, and debris removal comes with every visit. Few or no trees around the house means once a year, on the fall visit, is enough. Gutter guards cut down how often the gutter itself fills, but the surface still needs clearing, so guarded systems get serviced less often rather than skipped. We leave every run clean, dry and draining.
Our crew can be on the schedule for residential gutter cleaning services or a regular gutter cleaning visit, and the same rhythm applies to residential properties and commercial properties, since our schedule covers residential and commercial work alike. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and you can clean your gutters on that schedule from then on. Ask for an estimate by phone and we will walk through the timing for your roofline.
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.
Katy gutter cleaning is handled by our own crews, and our cleaning services in Katy reach the surrounding areas as well as the city itself. The crew is on the road from the nearest base, so keep your gutters on the schedule and we will confirm the date when you call.
The gutter cleaning process is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us, give us the story count, a rough square footage and whether there are trees over the roof, and send a photo of the house front if that is easy. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home. The two busiest windows of the year are spring and fall, so if you want a slot in those months, call early to get your gutters on the calendar. A quote from us should give you the full picture of the visit, and we will flush each outlet, leave the site clean and send photos of every run.
For Katy homeowners who want one visit to protect your home from water damage, our gutter services cover the cleaning and maintenance of the whole exterior roof run, gutters and downspouts included, not just the parts visible from the driveway. We know this is a lot to take in on the phone, so ask the questions you have and we will answer them directly.
Our gutter cleaning service prices from stories and size, and we give the number to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without knowing those two things. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
Across Texas, spring visits run late March to April. Our fall visit runs December to early January, once the last leaves are down. Katy gets about 49.1 inches of rain a year, and May, August and October are the wettest months, so a skipped visit shows up as sagging runs and wet leaf mat by the next season.
Most slots come up within the week. Our cleaning services are booked by phone, and we confirm the date when you call, so you know exactly when the crew will arrive.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run to your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, we flush every downspout, check that water is leaving at the outlet, and leave the yard clean. Clearing an underground drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes, a guarded gutter system still needs the surface cleared. Needles and seed casings sit on top of the guard, and once that mat is wet, the water runs over the front edge instead of into the trough. We clear what is on top and check that water is getting in. Guards change the gutter maintenance schedule, not the need for it.
A gutter that is clean and still spills water over the edge in rain has a slope or capacity problem, not a clog problem. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it actually 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 they start, never after the work is done.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
