Our own crew cleans gutters in Redmond, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled off, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. We have been booked this way across Washington (WA) for years, with most customers choosing a spring and fall visit.
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, whether that is leaves, a twig or two, or packed seed casings. We quote it over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Most cleaning services in Redmond price by linear foot, which comes out to a similar figure per foot, but the total is what matters to a homeowner. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will give you a written estimate.
What moves the price on our jobs is what the crew finds when it gets up there. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and more equipment. A walk-out basement or sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline. Gutters nobody has opened in years come out packed with compacted leaves that have to be worked loose by hand, and the drainage on those runs is poor by the time we arrive. Gutter guards we have to lift and reseat before we can reach the trough. The goal is a clean trough, and everything above is what it takes to get there. Gutters and downspouts get flushed and flow tested, and debris removal is included in the quote, never billed as an extra. If anything changes the job, you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice.
On our jobs, one customer with a two-story house and heavy tree cover had gutters that had not been opened in several years. The crew found the trough full of compacted leaves and seed casings, a clog at every elbow, and a run that had pulled loose from its hangers. The runs were clean again by the time the crew left. The number we gave reflected the extra time and the reseating of the run, and the price on the invoice matched the quote. You can read that job here: gutter cleaning case.
We know many homeowners want their gutters cleaned without the guesswork. Our gutter cleaning process is simple: we confirm the address, ask about stories and trees, and give you a firm number before we book. Heavy rainfall here, about 43.9 inches a year, is why Redmond homeowners call us for a second look after the first cleaning, and we include that in the same process. Cleaning and maintenance over time is what keeps the gutter system working, and our price includes a check of every run.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $225 | from $295 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $200 | from $260 | from $335 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $235 | from $305 | from $395 |
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 two cleanings a year: spring after the seed and pollen drop, and fall after the last leaves. On our jobs here, the spring visit finds seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the elbows of the clogged downspouts. The fall visit finds the wet leaf mat and buildup that sits in the rain gutter through the rainy season. Freeze risk here means the fall cleaning matters more. Jan, Nov and Dec are the wettest months here, so a gutter cleaned at the late November visit can be full again by December. On Redmond homes that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs sag or pull loose from the fascia by the following winter, and once water sits behind them the fascia can rot, which is how structural damage starts.
Under heavy tree cover we see gutters fill faster, and our customers there are on a three to four month schedule, because a clog forms fast when needles and grit pack the drain pipes between visits. With few or no trees, one clean a year in late fall is enough. Gutter guards need less frequent cleaning, but the surface still has to be clean, because guards hold back the leaves while needles and grit settle on top and wash over the edge, and a full trough can leak at the joints. Most gutter systems we open here have some combination of these, so the schedule follows the landscape around each house and what the crew finds. Across Washington (WA), storm season brings atmospheric rivers and Pacific fronts, so the fall visit is the one that matters most.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs. We keep the schedule in writing, a clean record you can check, and we send a reminder before the next visit is due. For commercial properties the schedule is set per building, but the same logic applies: the gutter cleaning services we run for business sites in the area follow the same visit cadence, and gutter maintenance is priced the same way.
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 has left clean gutters with good water flow in several neighborhoods, and we work across Redmond and the surrounding areas from our nearest base. Booking 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 to send. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home, since the crew works outside and stays away from your home. Spring and fall fill up first, so if you want a particular week in those windows, book early.
Our gutter cleaning service covers residential properties, including single-family homes and townhouses across Washington (WA). The schedule for a visit is set when you book, and we confirm the date by phone. If you want us to clean your gutters on a set schedule, we can hold recurring dates so the crew comes back at the same interval each year to keep your gutters working through the wet months.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it by phone or text. We will not put a figure on this page, because the house decides it. Call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and rough square footage and we will confirm the number on the call.
On our jobs most customers book late spring and late fall. In the spring the crew finds seed casings and pollen paste; in the fall it is the wet leaf mat, and if you wait past the first freeze the ice starts to load the runs. A clean gutter in the fall is how you protect your home from water damage, because it moves water away from the fascia. Waiting until spring after a skipped fall visit is the most common mistake we see.
Spring and fall fill first, so the sooner you call, the better your chance of a fast slot. We confirm the exact date on the call.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and sends photos of every run and downspout to your phone before the truck leaves. The same visit runs across Redmond and the surrounding areas. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. We leave the yard clean when we go.
Yes. We flush every downspout with water and watch it until it runs clean at the bottom. A blockage shows up as water that stalls in the pipe instead of leaving at the bottom. Where a drain pipe feeds an underground line, we check that water leaves at the outlet and tell you if it does not. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes, less often. On our jobs under guards we find needles threaded through the mesh, seed casings sitting on top, and roof grit settling underneath. Once that mat is wet, rain runs over the front edge, so the surface still has to be kept clean and the drain pipes flushed.
A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge has a slope, capacity or outlet size problem, not a cleaning problem. Send us a photo or short video of the rainwater coming over the edge and we will tell you what it is. We do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Only if the job changes, and you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice. The figure we give on the phone is the number we charge for our gutter services, and anything that changes it is raised and agreed first.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
