The service process
Measure. Confirm. Clean.
A short, repeatable process keeps the estimate and the onsite work aligned.
We confirm access, stories, guards, and the sections to be cleaned.
We clear accessible debris and check the path water needs to follow.
We clean the work area and flag visible maintenance concerns.
Downspout cleaning
Downspout cleaning and drainage checks come with every gutter job.
A clean gutter still overflows if the downspout is packed. On every visit we clear the outlet, flush each downspout with water and watch it exit at the bottom, the splash block or the drain it feeds. Clogs at the top elbow are cleared from above; a plug in the lower elbow is cleared by opening that elbow, not by forcing it down the pipe.
Downspouts in Portland clog with the same things as gutters, fir needles, maple seeds and shingle grit, and they clog first because the elbows are narrow. The signs are water sheeting over the gutter lip while the rest of the run is clean, a downspout that gurgles or drips long after the rain stops, and a wet or heaving patch of soil at the base.
If your downspouts drain into underground lines, we confirm whether the line takes water during the flush. A line that backs up is reported with photos rather than blindly jetted, so you can decide on a drain specialist before winter. Downspout cleaning is included in the gutter cleaning price; there is no separate line item unless a downspout has to be taken apart.
- Every downspout flushed and watched at the outlet
- Top and bottom elbows cleared when packed
- Underground drain lines checked for flow, backups reported with photos
- Splash blocks and extensions reset so water lands away from the foundation

Common questions
Questions about gutter cleaning.
How often should Portland-area gutters be cleaned?
Tree cover and roof design matter more than a universal calendar. Many homes need attention in the fall and again after winter or spring debris; lightly covered properties may need less.
Do gutter guards change the price?
They can. Guard type, removal needs, access, and the amount of trapped material affect labor. The measured quote accounts for those details.
Can I book gutters without a membership?
Yes. One-time and twice-yearly gutter service are available. Complete Home Care is an option for homeowners who want the work planned across the year.
Do you clean downspouts too?
Yes. Downspout cleaning is part of every gutter cleaning. Each downspout is flushed and checked at the outlet, and packed elbows are opened and cleared. It is not a separate charge unless a downspout has to be disassembled.
My downspout drains underground. Can you clear that?
We flush the downspout and confirm whether the underground line accepts water. If it backs up we document it with photos and tell you what we saw. Clearing a blocked underground drain line is a job for a drain specialist, and we will say so rather than guess.
Do you install gutter guards or repair gutters?
We clean gutters and downspouts, including gutters that already have guards or screens. We do not install gutters, guards or covers. Loose hangers, separated seams and sagging runs are photographed and flagged in your report so you can get them repaired before the rain.
How much does gutter cleaning cost for a two-story house in Portland?
Two-story homes usually land between $250 and $350, versus $150 to $250 for a single story, because of the ladder work and the time it takes to do it safely. Guards, long runs and heavy fir debris push toward the top of the range.
Is gutter cleaning priced per foot?
Some companies quote $1 to $2 per linear foot as a planning anchor. We quote the house, because stories, guards and debris change the number more than length does, and every downspout is flushed as part of the price.
