On average, homeowners can expect to pay $175 for gutter cleaning but it can range from $175 to $450, with services priced per linear foot to reflect the actual work needed. Additional charges may apply for complex setups, gutter guards, or heavily neglected gutters.

Neglecting gutter maintenance can lead to costly repairs down the line. Gutters need to be cleaned at least twice a year – in the spring and in the fall. If you have pine trees near your home, needles will need to be removed every three months to reduce the potential for clogging the gutters and downspouts.

Working from the ground, lift the gutter vacuum extension into the gutter. Vacuum out debris. Empty the vacuum as necessary because suction decreases as it gets full. After collecting all debris, flush the gutters and downspouts with a hose.
