Our own crew cleans gutters here. Every downspout gets flushed and flow-tested, the debris is hauled off, and you get photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from your stories, your square footage and how much tree cover sits over the house, and the number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice. Across Utah, most of our customers book for spring and fall.
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 our cleaning services in Hurricane over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we give you is the number we charge. Gutters that are nearly clean take less time than ones packed solid, and regular cleanings mean less to dig out on each visit. A blockage at the elbow, or a twig caught in it, adds time. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place, though the per-foot math hides what the crew actually climbs.
What moves the price on our Hurricane homes is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run well up the wall, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with compacted leaf mat, and gutter guards we have to lift and reseat. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-away are included and are never billed as extras. Anything that changes the job gets raised before work starts, never on the invoice. If the crew finds a leak at a seam, it shows up in the photos and the report.
On jobs under big canopy, the gutter cleaning process takes longer because the trough is packed deeper and the runs clog from the elbow down, which makes clogged downspouts the slowest part of the job. We tell you what we found before we start, and if the job needs more time than a standard clean we say so on the phone. Most homeowner calls for gutter maintenance end the same way: we confirm the stories, the size and the tree cover, and you get a number that holds. Text a photo of the front of the house if that is easier than describing it, and we will tell you what we see from the driveway. Call (866) 435-6328 to get your gutters on the schedule, and the crew will confirm the visit.

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 here book twice a year, once after the spring seed and pollen drop and once after the leaves and debris are down. In spring the downspout elbows are packed with seeds and pollen paste. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, booked for November to early December, and that is the visit that counts before the first hard freeze. A clean gutter going into that freeze leaves the ice nothing to hold onto. Rainwater left sitting in a trough is where the damage starts.
On our Hurricane UT jobs, freeze risk is real here, so the fall visit does the most work. When a house skips it, the first cold snap turns the trapped water into ice at the eave, and by March we find runs that sag or have pulled loose from the fascia line, which is where structural damage and fascia rot start. Houses with no trees need one visit a year in late fall to keep the gutter system clean. Houses under heavy canopy need every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the outlets between visits and the water flow drops off fast. Hurricane gets about 13.6 inches of precipitation a year, and January through March are the wettest months. Across Utah, a monsoon can put down heavy rainfall in an hour on a gutter that has been dry for weeks. Every visit ends with a flush of each downspout.
Guards cut the frequency but do not end it. The surface still needs clearing, a few times a year at most on a lot with moderate cover, and the crew leaves the guard clean and seated. A single clog at the elbow is enough to back water over the front edge. Across Utah the pattern holds: the more debris falls on the house, and the more the landscape around it sheds, the more often the rain gutter needs the crew. Cleaning and maintenance on a set schedule catches a sagging run early, before it pulls loose from the fascia. The whole point of the schedule is to get water away from your home. Our gutter cleaning services follow the tree line more than the date. Keep an eye on the rain gutter after storms and call us if it runs over. After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, and we put that in writing on the invoice.
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 works across Hurricane UT from the nearest base, so the city is covered as a whole. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text for your home, based on stories, square footage and whether trees hang over the house. A photo of the front of the house helps if it is easy to send, and it gets you a clean number faster. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. Drainage gets checked at every downspout outlet before the crew leaves. If you live in surrounding areas just outside town, call and ask whether your address is on the route before you book. This page is about residential properties. For a commercial properties job, or a building that is part residential and commercial, call first and we will tell you whether the crew can take it.
Lead time depends on the calendar, not on the job. The two busy windows are spring and fall, when most homeowners here book the same month, so the earlier you call the easier the slot. Outside those windows the calendar opens up and the crew can usually fit a visit in within a few weeks. Booking early helps protect your home from water damage through the wet months, so the earlier you call, the sooner the gutter services can start. Buildup in the trough gets cleared by hand before any downspout is flushed. Debris removal is part of every visit, so the bags leave with the crew.
We keep the process simple: you call, we confirm the date, we arrive, we clean, we send the photos. If you want regular gutter cleaning, we book the next two visits when we finish the first, and you can have us clean your gutters on a set schedule without calling in between. Call (866) 435-6328 to book, or text the quote details and we will confirm the date in writing.
For homeowners here, the number comes from stories and square footage. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we give you an estimate on the spot.
Our customers here book late spring and late fall, and that schedule is how most people keep your gutters clean through the wet months. The fall visit matters most because freeze risk in this area turns trapped water into ice at the eave.
Most slots come up within the week. Our gutter services are booked by phone, and we confirm a date when you call.
No. The crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Yes. We flush every downspout and flow-test it, so rainwater leaves through the bottom. Underground drainage is checked at the outlet, and a clean outlet is what we look for. Clearing a buried line is priced separately before anyone touches it. We check the gutters and downspouts together so you know where the water is going.
Yes, though less often. Under guards we find needles, seed casings and grit sitting on top, and the surface still has to be cleared to keep water moving.
That is usually a slope or downspout-size problem, not a blockage. Send us a photo or short video in the rain and we tell you what it is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Only if something changes the job, and you hear about it before work starts. The number we give you is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
