What drives the price
- Linear feet of gutter and the number of stories
- How full the gutters are, and whether debris is loose or packed down and composted
- Roof pitch and access — steep roofs may be worked from ladders only
- Number of downspouts, and whether any are clogged below the gutter line
- Gutter guards, which change how debris has to be removed
- Minor findings during cleaning, such as loose fasteners or a leaking seam, and whether small fixes are included
Common questions
How much does gutter cleaning cost?
Typical US cost for gutter cleaning is $119 to $234 USD, based on published market research. Your exact price depends on project size, scope and materials.
How can I get an exact gutter cleaning quote?
Use the HomeTarget cost calculator for a range based on your project size, then request quotes — local pros price the actual job, and requesting quotes is free for homeowners.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
A common pattern is once or twice a year — after the fall leaf drop and again in spring. Homes under pine trees or heavy canopy may need an extra visit, because needles and seed pods pack into gutters faster than leaves.
What happens if gutters stay clogged?
Overflowing water can stain siding, rot the fascia boards behind the gutter, and pool against the foundation, and in cold climates clogged gutters contribute to ice dams. Wet debris is also heavy, and its weight is a common reason gutters sag or pull away from the house.
