Common Mistakes We See

Ice dams start with clogged gutters, not cold weather

Blocked gutters trap meltwater at the roof edge, where it refreezes and backs up under your shingles. A $200 cleaning prevents $3,000+ in ceiling damage.

Federal Hill and Elmhurst gutters fill up twice as fast

Dense oak and maple canopy means two cleanings per year minimum. If you're only cleaning once, you're probably dealing with overflow by November.

What Affects the Cost?

Number of Stories
high impact

Two-story homes cost 30–50% more due to ladder height and safety requirements. Three-story homes typically require specialized equipment.

Example range: $40–$100 more per story

Home Size / Linear Feet
high impact

Gutter cleaning is priced by linear foot. A 2,500 sq ft home has roughly 200 linear feet of gutter vs 120 for a small home.

Example range: $60–$120 difference

Tree Coverage
medium impact

Homes surrounded by mature oaks and maples (common in Federal Hill, Elmhurst) may need cleaning twice per year.

Example range: $120–$280 per additional cleaning

Gutter Condition
low impact

Badly neglected gutters with compacted debris or plant growth take longer to clean and may require repair.

Example range: $30–$60 surcharge

Ways to Save Money

Book in spring instead of fall

Potential savings: $30–$70

Tradeoff: Fall is when leaves actually drop, so you may need a second cleaning

Bundle with deck staining or exterior painting

Potential savings: $50–$100

Tradeoff: None — same truck, same ladder

Install gutter guards to reduce cleaning frequency

Potential savings: $200–$400/year

Tradeoff: $400–$1,100 upfront cost; still needs occasional cleaning

Use a hose from the ground for single-story sections

Potential savings: $60–$100

Tradeoff: Only works for single-story; won't catch blockages

Sign up for a biannual maintenance plan

Potential savings: $40–$80/year

Tradeoff: Requires commitment to two cleanings per year
