Gutter cleaning

Hand-cleared, bagged, downspouts flushed and flow tested.

Gutter cleaning in Knoxville

Overview

What the job actually involves

East Tennessee drops a lot of leaf litter, and a blocked gutter finds the one place your fascia is soft. We clear gutters by hand rather than blowing debris across the yard, bag what comes out, then flush every downspout and watch where the water goes.

Book gutters with a window clean and the crew handles both in the same visit, which is why the window and gutter bundle is our most popular booking in October.

Step by step

How we run a visit

Four or five steps, the same every time, so you always know what happens next.

  1. 1

    Set up and protect

    Ladders get standoffs so they never rest on the gutter, and beds below are covered.

  2. 2

    Clear by hand

    Debris is scooped into buckets and bagged, not flung onto the roof or the lawn.

  3. 3

    Flush and test

    Every downspout is run with a hose until it flows clear and drains away from the foundation.

  4. 4

    Report

    You get photos of anything we found: loose spikes, rust, separated seams or damaged fascia.

Why bother

What you actually get

  • Water goes where it should

    A clear run moves storm water away from the foundation instead of down the siding.

  • Fewer pest problems

    Standing leaf sludge is where mosquitoes and carpenter ants start. Clearing it removes the habitat.

  • Early warning on repairs

    Photos of sagging or rust give you time to fix a section before a whole run has to be replaced.

Pricing

What moves the price

Prices start at $169. These are the four things that change the number on your quote. Sample figures, confirmed in writing before any work starts.

FactorHow it affects your quote
Roof storeysSingle storey runs are quick. Two and three storey work needs longer ladders and more setup.
Linear feetPriced by the total run of gutter, not by the size of the house.
Debris loadGutters skipped for two or more seasons hold packed sludge that takes extra time.
Gutter guardsCovered gutters need the guards lifted and refitted, which adds to the labour.

Questions

About this service

All questions

Yes. We lift the guards, clear underneath, rinse the mesh and refit them. Let us know the brand so we bring the right clips.

Twice a year suits most Knoxville homes. Under heavy oak or pine cover, three times is more realistic.

We re-seat loose spikes and re-seal small seam leaks. Full replacement is referred to a licensed gutter contractor.
