Downspouts flushed and tested
Every gutter cleaning ends with water running through the downspouts, so you know it drains.
Careful with tile, slate and copper
We do not walk fragile roofing. Ladders, poles and vacuum tools protect the roof.
Houston-specific timing
May before hurricane season and December after fall drop, with extra visits for heavy pine and pecan lots.
Price before the work starts
A per-foot rate or a written total for the whole house, not a vague starting-at number.
Houston Gutters Work Harder Than Most
Houston gets close to 50 inches of rain a year, spread over about 104 rainy days, and the wet season runs from spring into early fall. Hurricane season adds heavier storms from June through November. A gutter that overflows in a normal thunderstorm will not survive a tropical downpour.
The trees add to it. Live oaks shed old leaves and long catkins in spring. Loblolly pines drop needles all year. Pecans and sweetgums fill gutters in the fall. Magnolia leaves stack up through summer. Each one clogs gutters in a different way and on a different schedule.
Then there is the ground. Much of Houston sits on expansive clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry. Roof water that dumps at one point along your slab is exactly what that soil does not like, which is why we treat downspouts as part of the job. See gutters and foundation problems in Houston.

Frequently asked questions
How much does gutter cleaning cost in Houston?
Most Houston homes run about $155 to $370 for a standard cleaning. Single-story homes are typically $155 to $260, two-story homes $190 to $370 and three-story homes $220 to $460. Your price depends on gutter length, height, roof pitch and how much debris is in the gutters.
How often should I clean my gutters in Houston?
Twice a year for most homes: May, before hurricane season, and December, after fall leaf and needle drop. Lots under heavy pines, pecans or sweetgums often add a September or October cleaning.
Do you clean the downspouts too?
Yes. We flush every downspout with water and confirm it drains. A clean gutter with a clogged downspout still overflows.
Do you walk on tile or slate roofs?
No. Tile, slate and other fragile roofing is cleaned from ladders, poles and vacuum tools. We tell you the method before we book.
Do gutter guards mean I never have to clean gutters?
No. Guards reduce debris but do not eliminate it. Oak pollen, pine needles, moss and roof grit still build up in Houston. Plan on cleaning guarded gutters about once a year.
Can clogged gutters hurt my foundation?
They can contribute. Overflow and short downspouts concentrate water at one spot along the slab, and Houston’s expansive clay reacts to uneven moisture. We clean and flush gutters and note drainage problems, but we do not diagnose foundation damage.
What areas do you serve?
Houston and the surrounding metro, including the Heights, River Oaks, Garden Oaks, Tanglewood, Montrose, West University, Bellaire, Memorial, Sugar Land, Katy and The Woodlands.
Do I need to be home?
Usually not. We need access to the gutters and any gates. We confirm the price first.
