Why gutter cleaning matters in a dry city
San Diego gets most of its rain in a few winter storms, which is exactly why gutters here cause so much damage. They fill with leaves, pine needles, eucalyptus bark and roof grit for months with nothing to flush them, then the first real storm sends water over the edge onto stucco, windows, walkways and foundations instead of down the downspouts.
We clear gutters by hand, bag the debris instead of blowing it onto your yard, flush every downspout and run water through the system to check that it drains. If we see loose brackets, separated seams or a downspout that empties against the house, we show you photos so you can decide what to do about it.
How we do it
Inspect
We check the gutters and downspouts before we start.
Clear by hand
Debris is removed and bagged, never blown onto your yard.
Flush
Downspouts are flushed and the whole line is flow tested.
Report
If we see loose brackets or leaks, we show you photos.

- Plants or weeds growing out of the gutter
- Water streaks or stains on stucco under the gutter line
- Overflow at the corners during the last rain
- A downspout that drips but never really flows
- Large trees, especially eucalyptus, pine or pepper trees, over the roof

Gutter Cleaning questions
When should gutters be cleaned in San Diego?
In the fall, before the first rain, is the most important time. Homes under eucalyptus, pine or other large trees often need a second cleaning in spring.
Do you clean the downspouts too?
Yes. Every downspout is flushed and checked, because a clogged downspout makes a clean gutter overflow anyway.
Do you need to get on my roof?
We work from ladders whenever we can. Roof cleaning is not a service we offer.
How do I get a price?
Call or send the form. Gutter quotes are free and based on the length of gutter and how many stories the home has.
Do you install or repair gutters?
We clean gutters. If we find a problem, we show you photos so you can have it repaired.
What do you do with the debris?
It is bagged and removed. Nothing is blown onto your yard, driveway or your neighbor's property.
Can you clean gutters with gutter guards?
Usually, yes. Guards slow debris down but do not stop it. We lift or remove them, clean underneath and put them back.
