A typical visit.
Ladder walk
We walk the perimeter on ladders — no standing on the roof unless the pitch demands it.
Scoop
Every run hand-cleared. Leaves, needles, shingle grit, tennis balls — all of it.
Flush
Hose down each downspout until it runs clean out the bottom.
Document
Photo report texted to you before we leave: condition notes on anything that needs a follow-up.
A rough guide.
Flat-rate by linear foot. Two visits per year is the sweet spot for most homes (late spring, late fall).
Cottage
Single-story ranch, bungalow, or small cape.
Standard
Most two-story suburban homes.
Large
Larger two-story or L-shaped homes, includes detached garage.
What homeowners worry about — straight answers
I did gutters last November — why are we already talking about another visit?
Two reasons. First, Tidewater oak + pine canopy drops debris in two waves — the post-winter April drop is almost as heavy as fall. Second, spring storms redistribute what winter caught into hidden downspout blockages that only show up at the next heavy rain. Twice-yearly gutter service is standard here, not a sales upsell — it's the canopy you live under.
Don't storm forecasts give us enough warning to book gutter work before landfall?
Tropical forecasts sharpen 2-4 days out; gutter routes fill days before that. When the cone narrows, our calendar is already full with earlier pre-storm requests. Standing twice-a-year service booked before late August puts you ahead of the reactive crowd. Post-storm emergency work is still available, but pre-scheduled customers get routed first.
Why do my downspouts clog faster than my [Midwest / mountain] friends' do?
Three overlapping factors: pine needles (slow to decompose, weave into mats), live oak acorns + fine debris, and humid coastal air that accelerates internal corrosion. Midwest maple-canopy debris composts away within months; Virginia's pine + live oak mix doesn't. Downspout snaking or full-replacement becomes necessary on a shorter cycle than your out-of-state experience suggests.
Common questions, straight answers.
Why not just use a leaf blower from the ground?
Blowers pack debris into the downspouts and push grit into the seam sealant. Hand-cleaning is slower but it's the difference between a gutter that drains and one that doesn't.
How often should I have gutters cleaned?
Twice a year if you have any trees overhead — late spring (post-pollen) and late fall (post-leaf-drop). Once a year if you have guards installed and no trees nearby.
Do you do gutter guards?
We don't install them, but we'll give an honest opinion on whether your home would benefit. Most guards trade one problem for another.
