Our own crew keeps gutters clean on the homes we serve. We flush every downspout and flow-test it, haul the debris away, and take photos of every run before we leave. 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 a spring and fall visit, and that is the pattern we keep seeing on our jobs.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
For Wells Branch homes the price depends on stories, square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo, and we quote it from those three things. The number we give you is the number we charge. Some outfits charge for gutter cleaning services by the linear foot and land in a similar place, but we would rather price the whole house than count feet of trough.
On our jobs, a few things move the price. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and more equipment. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline, so the back run sits well above the ground. Gutters nobody has opened in years come down packed with buildup, and the clogged downspouts that feed them take more hours. A run that has begun to sag holds water, and any leak at its seam soaks the fascia behind it. A clog at the bottom of the run adds time too. Guards on the gutter system we have to lift and reseat add time as well. Flushing and flow testing come with the price, and so does debris removal. The price buys a clean drainage path that moves water away from the foundation. A rain gutter left full through a storm can cause structural damage to the trim and fascia. A homeowner hears about any change before work starts, never on the invoice.
The jobs that run highest tend to be the houses where the gutter has been left so long that the buildup has turned into a mat and water runs behind the trough instead of into it. Once the run is cleared and the downspout flushed, the crew can tell whether water flow is clean or whether the slope is the real problem. Text us a photo of the front of the house and we can give you a closer estimate. The crew handles the leaves and debris and the buildup, and our gutter services cover residential and commercial properties on the same basis, one building at a time.
| 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.
Plan a spring and fall visit. Across Texas, spring visits usually land in late March to April, after the seed and pollen drop. The fall visit lands in late November to December, once the last leaves are down. Book a gutter cleaning service for both. In spring the seeds and pollen paste pack the downspout elbows, and in fall the wet leaf mat holds rainwater against the roofline.
If you want to clean your gutters on time under heavy tree cover in Wells Branch TX, plan every three to four months, because needles, grit and the odd twig pack the downspout between visits. With few or no trees, once a year in late November is usually enough. Gutters under guards need fewer cleanings, but the surface still has to be cleared.
In the wettest months, May, June and October, heavy rainfall washes leaves and grit into the elbows. A clog at the first elbow turns into overflow, blockage and a rain gutter that pulls loose from the fascia or leaks at the seam by the next season. A visit before that happens keeps the run working and avoids structural damage to the trim and the wall below it. Regular gutter cleaning also makes each visit shorter, because the buildup has not had time to compact, and a clean trough is easier to flush. Debris removal is part of every visit. The same timing suits residential properties and residential and commercial roofs alike. Send a photo of the house front for a closer estimate before you book, and we tell you how often your lot actually needs a visit.
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 cover the surrounding areas, so the crew reaches your street without a long wait. That includes residential properties, and every homeowner gets the same process. Homes with gutter guards get priced as a guarded system, and the guards are lifted and reseated for the run. Booking starts with a few details about the house, and the fastest way is to call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front. We ask about stories, size and tree cover, and tell you the first open date when we talk. Lead time depends on the calendar at the time you call. On every visit we flush every downspout, check the flow at the bottom, and leave the run clean.
Our calendar fills in two busy windows: the weeks after the spring seed drop and the weeks after the fall leaves. Booking early in those windows keeps a slot, so call (866) 435-6328 or book a date to get your gutters on the schedule. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. Our Wells Branch gutter cleaning covers residential and commercial work, and our gutter services protect your home from water damage by keeping gutters and downspouts clear and draining. A clean run is what keeps water moving away from your home. Keep your gutters clear and the rest of the house follows.
The number comes from stories, size and what is on your gutter system, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not give a range without those details. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
Across Texas, spring visits run late March to April, and the fall visit in Wells Branch runs late November to December. Skipping the fall visit is the usual gutter maintenance mistake, and by the following season runs can sag under the wet leaf mat.
Same-day slots depend on the calendar that week. Our cleaning services in Wells Branch usually come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call, so you can get your gutters on the calendar.
No. Our gutter cleaning process is outside only: the crew 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 checked, and the water should run clear at the bottom. Standing water in a clogged run can rot the fascia board behind it. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job and is priced before anyone touches it.
Yes, usually less often. Guards turn the job into cleaning and maintenance on the surface. Across Wells Branch, seed casings and grit from the landscape still settle on top, so the top has to be cleared and the downspouts flushed to carry water away from your home.
If a clean gutter still sheets water over the edge during heavy rainfall, the problem is slope or downspout capacity, not the leaves. Send us a photo or a short video in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning.
Only if something changes the job. You hear it and agree before work starts, so the invoice matches the quote.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
