Gutter Cleaning, cleared and flow-tested

Interior scoop-out, every downspout flushed and flow-tested.

What it is

Gutter Cleaning — done properly

We clear needles, leaves and grit from the gutter troughs, bag the debris, flush every downspout and flow-test each run. Photos of the cleared gutters are sent on completion. Exterior gutter-face brightening — removing the black "tiger stripe" staining — is available as an add-on through our separate Gutter Brightening service.

Why it matters here

What gutter cleaning is up against in the Northwest

Needles pack solid

Fir and pine needles knit into a mat that holds water and rots the fascia. They have to come out by hand, not by blower alone.

Overflow finds the foundation

A blocked run sends water down the wall and against the footing. Clearing gutters each season is cheap insurance against rot and settling.

Roof grit builds sludge

Shingle grit and moss debris wash in and set into a heavy paste that screens will not stop. We scoop it and flush it.

What's included

Every job, every time

  • Debris hand-cleared and hauled away, not blown around
  • All downspouts flushed and flow-tested
  • Gutter-face brightening available as an add-on
  • Before/after photos from the ladder
How it works

Four steps, no surprises

01

Hand-clear the troughs

Every run is cleared by hand and the debris is bagged and taken with us — nothing blown onto the roof or the beds.

02

Flush the downspouts

Each downspout is run with water and flow-tested; minor clogs are cleared on the spot.

03

Check pitch & hangers

We eyeball the slope to the downspouts and note any loose hangers or seam leaks so you know what to keep an eye on.

04

Photo report

We send photos from the ladder showing the cleared troughs and the confirmed flow.

What it costs

Single-story homes generally run $99–$200 and two-story homes $200–$350, based on linear footage and how packed the gutters are. Bundled rates when added to a roof wash, house wash or gutter brightening.

Gutter Cleaning FAQ

Before you book

Do you clean the outside of the gutters too?

That is our Gutter Brightening add-on — a soft wash of the exterior faces that removes the black "tiger stripe" staining, not just the debris inside. It is quoted on top of the cleaning, or bundled at a lower combined rate.

How often should gutters be cleaned around here?

Twice a year for most homes with any conifers nearby — late spring after the seed drop and late fall after the leaves. Open lots with no trees can often go once a year.

Can you install guards so I stop doing this?

Yes — see our gutter guard installation page. We clean and re-pitch the gutters first, then fit micro-mesh guards.
