Our own crew provides gutter cleaning services in Stevens Point WI, with every run of gutters and each downspout flushed and flow-tested before we leave. The leaves go into bags, and you get photos of every run so you can see the trough is clean. The price comes from stories, size and tree cover, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most homes here book in spring and fall, and we have been doing this work across Wisconsin long enough to know what a season of runoff does to a house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will tell you when we can get out.
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. Companies that price by the linear foot land in a similar place, though that method hides the height and the load of wet leaves that actually drive the time on a ladder. Owners of commercial properties should call first, because access and roof type move the quote more than square footage, and the same questions set the price for residential and commercial buildings. Our services for Stevens Point homes start from the house itself, not from a flat rate.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a walk-out basement that puts the back run well above grade, gutters nobody has opened in years, and guards we have to lift and reseat before we can reach the trough. A sag in the run holds water, and standing water is how a small buildup turns into fascia rot and structural damage. A clog that has sat long enough becomes packed leaves and debris that we have to dig out by hand, and that adds time. Downspout flushing, flow testing and debris haul-off are included and never billed as extras. Once the gutter system is clean, the crew checks the drainage at each outlet, and if anything we find changes the job, you hear about it before work starts, never on the invoice.
On our work here the homes that cost more to clear tend to be the older ones with long runs and heavy overhang, where one sag holds a full season of water. One recent job at a home with a heavy canopy over the back run had a clog packed hard at the outlet, and what we found there is exactly why we flush every downspout instead of stopping at the trough. Clogged downspouts hide the problem, because the stretch of rain gutter that looked clear from the ground was carrying almost no water flow. The fix was a clean run from the top to the outlet, so the water away from the house is not held back by a plug. That is what a fair quote covers.
| 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.
Across Wisconsin, spring visits usually land in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop. Here the fall visit matters most, October to early November, after the last leaves are down. Stevens Point gets about 34 inches of precipitation a year, and May, June and July are the wettest months, so the spring clean has to clear the trough before the heavy rainfall starts. Seed and pollen paste pack the downspout elbows, and in November the wet leaf mat does the damage. On houses that skipped the fall visit, we have found runs sagging under ice by March. Freeze risk here is real, and a fall clean is often what keeps an ice dam from forming at the eave.
On residential properties under heavy tree cover, every three to four months is the rhythm we see work, because needles and grit pack the outlets between visits. That is regular gutter cleaning, and it is what keeps a clog from turning into a blockage at the outlet. Where there are few or no trees, once a year in late fall is enough for most houses. Guards change the schedule a little, but the surface still needs clearing. Rainwater running off the roofline should reach the downspout, not the fascia, so after the first visit our estimate tells you which tier your lot actually needs. Debris removal is part of each visit, and you can clean your gutters on a schedule that fits the calendar. To book a date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the 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.
Our Stevens Point gutter cleaning service runs across Stevens Point and the surrounding areas from the nearest base, and the crew does the work as a single visit per house. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text from stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the house front if that is easy for you to send. Homeowners here tend to call in the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, so it is worth calling early. If a leak shows at a seam or water is pouring off the front edge, say so when you call. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date, or text a photo of the gutters and we will reply with a window for a clean first visit. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the work.
If you have been putting off your gutters, the simplest first step is a single call, and our gutter services start there. We will tell you what the lot needs and when we can get out, and once the crew is there we will flush every downspout and send the photos to your phone. A twig in a downspout elbow or a seed head sitting on the gutter guards is the kind of thing we clear on the way through, and the cleaning process ends with a check of the gutters and downspouts. Our cleanings include the roofline and the drainage at each outlet, so keep your gutters clean through the season and keep the water away from your home. The goal on every visit is a clean trough and a clean outlet. For a homeowner watching for water running behind the fascia, that is the quickest way to protect your home from water damage before the next storm.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without knowing the house, and the number we give is the number on the invoice.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. If you wait past the first hard freeze, the fall leaf mat can freeze into the trough and sag the run by March. Regular gutter maintenance twice a year is the easy way to avoid that.
We confirm a date when you call, and most slots come up within the week. Our cleaning services in Stevens Point depend on the schedule that week, so we will tell you honestly what we have. If you want to get your gutters on the calendar before a storm, call early.
No, you do not need to be home. The gutter cleaning process happens entirely outside, and the crew does not come inside. Our crew 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 watched until it runs clear at the bottom. Where a downspout feeds an underground drain line, we check that water is leaving at the outlet, and we run a clean flush to confirm the water away from the foundation is moving. Clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Yes. Guards stop leaves but not the seeds, needles and grit that mat on top, and once that mat is wet, water runs off the front edge. Under a wooded landscape the mat builds faster. Cleaning and maintenance on a guarded house still means clearing the surface, flushing each downspout and reseating the guards, and leaving the trough clean.
A clean gutter that still sheets water over the edge in heavy rainfall has a slope, capacity or downspout problem rather than a debris problem. Send us a photo or short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling you a second cleaning.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to it before work starts, never after. The number we quote is the number we charge.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
