Our own crew cleans gutters in East Wenatchee, every outlet flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave, so you can see the clean trough for yourself. The price comes from the number of 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. Most of our East Wenatchee customers book in spring and fall, and we are glad to walk you through which visit your house needs. Call or book online today at (866) 435-6328.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price depends on how many stories the house has, its size and what is sitting 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. Other gutter cleaning services that price by the linear foot land in a similar place per foot, but on our jobs the stories and the condition of the trough matter more than the length of the run.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a steep pitch that is unsafe to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run well up the wall, gutters nobody has opened in years, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can get at the trough. A gutter with a heavy clog can sag under its own weight and choke the drainage, and the buildup of wet leaves and seeds is the first thing our crew clears, so the trough comes out clean. Clearing, flow testing and debris removal are included and are never billed as extras. If anything we find changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before the crew starts, never on the invoice.
On East Wenatchee homes with heavy tree cover, the gutters tend to be the most packed, with leaves, the odd twig and seed casings working into every corner of the trough. One customer with a two-story home and a long run of rain gutter came to us with a trough packed solid, and water had been spilling over the front for a season. The crew cleared the whole system, left every run clean, and photographed each run before leaving, so the owner could see the difference, and the price was the number we quoted on the phone. A clogged trough that goes unchecked can leak at the joints and lead to structural damage, which is why we treat the flow check as part of the job, not an add-on.

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 two cleanings a year. Across Washington the spring visit usually falls in mid to late June, after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit runs late October to November, after the last leaves are down. When we open a gutter in the spring we find seed casings and pollen packed into the elbows, and in November it is the wet leaf mat along the roofline that has to come out before the rain and snow start. Houses that skipped the fall visit are the ones where we find runs sagging by late winter, pulled loose from the fascia by the weight of ice and water, with the board behind them starting to rot. A clean gutter going into the wet season is far less work to keep running.
Under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is what we see working, because needles and grit pack the drains between visits and a clog can start before the next regular gutter cleaning. Heavy rainfall in November, December and January is what makes the late fall visit matter, since a trough full of wet needles holds rainwater right where it should be draining away. Houses with few or no trees overhead usually do fine with one visit a year in late fall. Homes near a busy road or active construction also tend to need a closer schedule, since dust and grit settle into the trough faster than leaves do. Guarded gutters need less frequent work, but the surface still has to be cleared, and the guards themselves need checking for blockage.
Our crew can give you a schedule estimate after the first visit, once we have seen how fast the gutters fill and where the water is going. If you want a fixed calendar, a standing booking keeps the spring and fall slots from filling up before you call. Gutter maintenance on a set calendar keeps the crew ahead of the buildup. We clean residential and commercial gutters alike, and debris removal is part of every visit. For residential properties the frequency is set by the house, and for commercial properties it is set by the building and the number of stories, but the goal is the same: clean your gutters often enough that the water keeps moving.
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 East Wenatchee and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and we have cleaned gutters across the city's neighborhoods, from older houses with deep eaves to newer homes with lower pitches. East Wenatchee gutter cleaning is quoted by phone or text from the number of stories, the size of the house and the tree cover over it, and a photo of the front of the house helps if it is easy to send. Lead time depends on the season, so call (866) 435-6328 and we will confirm a date while you are on the line.
Our calendar fills in the busy windows, which are late spring and the weeks before the first hard freeze in late fall. Booking early keeps a homeowner out of the rush, and it gives us time to plan the trip so the crew arrives with the right ladders and boom or scissor lift for the job. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. If you want to keep your gutters clean all year, ask us about a standing schedule and we will set one up around your house, which is the simplest way to get your gutters on the calendar.
Every visit is about helping you protect your home from water damage, and our gutter services are built around that goal, which is why we clear the trough, flush every downspout and check where the water drains. Where a downspout dumps near the landscape, we check that the water is moving away from the foundation. If the gutters are clean but still overflow after the crew has left, we tell you what the problem is, whether it is slope, capacity or outlet size, instead of selling a second cleaning. That is how we keep homeowners coming back, one house at a time.
Our cleaning services in East Wenatchee are priced from the stories, the size of the house and what is in the gutter system, and we give you the number by phone or text. We do not quote a figure before we know those things. The price we quote is the price on the invoice.
Across Washington the spring visit usually falls in mid to late June, and most of our customers here book after the seed and pollen drop, then again in late October to November after the last leaves fall. If you wait until after the first hard freeze, we often find runs that have sagged under ice. Text a photo of the house and we will tell you which visit makes sense for your home in East Wenatchee WA.
Same-day slots are not something we promise. Most open slots come up within the week, and we confirm the date when you call.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and outlet to your phone before the truck leaves, so you can see how clean they are. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes, every outlet is flushed with water and flow-tested, and the crew tells you if water is not leaving the system. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, and we quote it before anyone touches it.
Yes, guarded gutters still need cleaning and maintenance, just less often. They still collect needles, seed casings and grit on top of the guard, and the trough can fill from underneath. Under guards we find the same packed buildup, just less of it, and the crew clears the surface and checks that water is getting in.
If the gutters are clean and still sheet water over the edge in the rain, the cause is usually slope, capacity or outlet size rather than leaves in the trough. A clean gutter should carry rainwater away from your home, so send us a photo or short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. Our gutter cleaning process runs from the quote we gave you, and if the crew finds something that changes the job, we stop, tell you what it is and agree on the change before we continue. Nothing gets added to the invoice that you did not hear about first.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
