Gillette homeowners get gutters that come out clean, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, the debris hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. Our own crew does the work, and the price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover hangs over the roof. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our customers book in late June to July or in October to early November, when the seed drop and the leaf load are heaviest.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
Our gutter cleaning services are priced from three things: how many stories the house has, its square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. We quote it over the phone or by text, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Gillette homeowners get one figure before the crew is on the ladder, not a number that grows as the job goes on.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the ones you can see from the street. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A walk-out basement or a sloped landscape raises the effective height of the roofline, so the back run sits well above the ground. Gutters that have not been opened in years come down packed with compacted leaf mass, and a clog that has set like that takes more time to clean out than a seasonal load. Guards we have to lift and reseat add their own labor. The flushing and the debris haul-off are already in the quote. If anything we find changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Gillette homes vary a lot in how much they hold. Under heavy tree cover, needles and grit pack the runs faster than you would expect, and the elbows are where the trouble starts. The crew gets each run clean by hand, flushes every downspout until the water flow runs clear at the bottom, and photographs each step. A clogged run that cannot send water away from the foundation lets it sit against the fascia until it finds a way into the wall, and that is how drainage trouble turns into structural damage. We do not price a job by the neighbor's, so the number comes from your house alone.
When a gutter is left full for a long stretch, the buildup can start a sag in the run, and the weight of wet leaves and debris pulls the hangers loose. Our crew checks every visit for a loose hanger or a small leak, reports what it finds rather than selling a repair, and notes on the estimate any run still pulling away from the house.
| 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 Wyoming, the spring visit falls in late June to July and the fall visit in October to early November. Gillette gets about 18 inches of precipitation a year, and the wettest months are April, May and June. Heavy rainfall in those months pushes water into any clog fast, and seeds and pollen pack the elbows in the same stretch. Snow falls from October through May, about 56 inches a year, and freeze risk is real, so the fall visit is the one that gets the runs clean before the first hard freeze and the ice dams start at the eave.
The schedule follows the lot. Under heavy tree cover, needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, and rainwater that meets a blockage at the elbow has nowhere to go, so regular gutter cleaning on a shorter cycle makes sense. A twig or a wad of needles in one elbow is enough to back up a whole run. Lots with few or no trees can usually manage with one visit a year in the fall that leaves the runs clean. The same logic holds for residential and commercial jobs: trees and grit set the schedule, not the calendar. Guards reduce how often the gutter fills, but the surface still has to be cleared, so guarded gutters are visited less often, not skipped.
Residential properties and commercial properties both follow the lot, not the calendar, so the first visit sets the pace. Give us a call for an estimate and we will tell you what the first visit covers, including the debris removal and a check on every run. After that, clean your gutters on the schedule the crew recommends, and the rest of the year follows from what they found in the gutters.
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.
Gillette gutter cleaning is booked by phone or text, and the gutter cleaning process is the same for every house. Our crew covers Gillette WY and the surrounding areas from the nearest base. Start with a quote: give us your stories, the approximate square footage and whether trees hang over the roof, and send a photo of the house front if that is easy. We will tell you what the job looks like and when we can fit it in. Calendars fill up in the two busy windows of the year, late June to July and early fall, so call or text to get your gutters on the schedule before those windows open.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the visit. The crew works from the outside of the house and sends photos of every run before it leaves, so you can see a clean trough for yourself. A homeowner with a backed-up gutter should call the same day, because water left in the trough finds its way into the siding and the fascia board, and gutter guards cut down how often it fills without replacing the visit.
Gutter services on a regular route mean the same crew comes back to the same houses and knows the lot. Gutter maintenance on a set schedule is the simplest way to keep your gutters clean, and between cleanings the crew can flag a loose hanger or a dripping seam before it becomes a larger job. Each visit covers gutters and downspouts together, because a clear trough with a stuck elbow still overflows, so the crew will flush every downspout while it is on the ladder. Booking cleaning and maintenance on a set schedule helps protect your home from water damage, so call (866) 435-6328 and we will set it up.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and our crew gives it to you by phone or text before we schedule anything. A two-story house is quoted from those inputs and the number is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will send a written estimate.
Most of our customers here book in late June to July or again in October to early November. In the spring we find the seeds and pollen packed in the elbows, and in the fall it is the leaf load and, in a freeze climate, the first ice. Waiting past the first hard freeze means the ice dams are already forming at the eave, which is when runs start to pull away and the fascia board begins to rot.
We offer cleaning services in Gillette on a booked date, and most slots come up within the week. We confirm a date when you call. We do not promise same-day service.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside, 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, each run is flushed and watched until the water runs clean at the bottom, and the crew checks that water leaves at the outlet. Clearing a buried drain line is a separate job, so we quote it separately and do not touch it until you agree to the price.
Yes, guarded gutters still need cleaning, though less often. Needles, seed casings and grit sit on top of the guard and mat once they are wet, and rain runs over the mat and off the front edge. The crew lifts the panels, clears underneath, flushes the outlets and reseats the guards, and the trough is clean when they leave.
A gutter system that is clean but still spills water over the edge in rain usually has a slope, capacity or downspout-size problem, and clogged downspouts get checked first. Send us a photo or short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is. We will not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear about it and agree to the new number before they start work. The number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
