Gutter Cleaning
Clogged gutters cleared, downspouts flushed, debris hauled off.
Get my written quotePick this if your gutters are overflowing, sprouting weeds, or you want them cleared before the fall leaf drop and winter rains.
Clogged gutters send water behind your fascia, into the foundation, and over the walkways. We hand-clear the debris, flush the downspouts, check the flow, and bag everything off your property—priced by the linear foot so the quote is honest.
What you can expect
- Full clear-out by hand, not just a blow-through
- Downspouts flushed and flow-checked
- Debris bagged and hauled off—no piles left behind
- Priced by linear foot; 1 & 2-story homes
Why this service matters in South Carolina
- Canopy debris fills gutters fast; overflow stains siding and drowns foundation plantings.
- Humid summers mean wasp paper and organic buildup at eaves—small blockages become waterfall events in one storm.
- Pine straw and seed pods pack downspouts, so water backs up long before the gutter itself looks full.
Common homeowner mistakes we see
- Blowing gutters out onto open windows or into open soffit vents.
- Ignoring fascia rot signs—cleaning doesn’t fix swelling boards.
- Skipping downspout checks—underground drains stay clogged after “clear” gutters.
Real-world scenarios we solve on Midlands properties
Mature tree-lined streets
Overflowing gutter corners
Water spills over the corners into foundation beds and streaks the lower siding.
How we handle it: Find the real clog and clear the downspout flow, not just the visible trough debris.
Homes under heavy canopy
Pre-winter clear-out
Late-fall leaf drop packs the runs right before the winter rains arrive.
How we handle it: Schedule after most leaves are down so one visit holds through the wet season.
Newer subdivisions
Two-story with underground drains
Gutters look clear but water still backs up because the buried drain is clogged.
How we handle it: Flush and flow-check every downspout; flag any that don't drain so it's fixed before damage.
When to schedule this service
- Late fall after most leaves drop; early spring before pollen masks clogs.
- After heavy wind events if you hear water slapping at night.
- Before listing photos when drip lines show on siding.
Signs you need this service
- Water runs over gutter lips in straight streams.
- Splash mud appears on lower siding or hostas under corners.
- You see plants leaning from constant waterfall weight.
What affects pricing?
- Linear feet of gutters and how many stories for ladder access
- Downspout count and whether any feed underground drains
- Tree cover overhead—it drives how fast they clog again
- Lot layout, slope, and obstacles in and around the greater Midlands
- How fast you want the work completed (peak season vs flexible)

Common problems we solve
