Professional gutter cleaning costs in Phoenix run between $120 and $260, with an average cost of $188.

Maintaining clean gutters and keeping them free of debris and clogs helps protect your roof, exterior walls, and ultimately your interiors from potentially costly water damage.

Gutter Cleaning Cost Factors 

The city of Phoenix is actively planting trees to help counter the effects of the area's high temperatures. While trees add shade and can boost your home's curb appeal, they're also the main culprit when it comes to gutter system clogs. As a result, gutter cleaning is crucial for protecting your home and its contents. The following are the primary factors that will impact the cost of your gutter cleaning project. 

Length of Gutters

Gutter cleaning pros often charge by the linear foot, so the longer your gutters, the more you’ll pay. On average, expect to pay $0.95 to $2.30 per linear foot of your gutters, though this price can be higher on a multi-story home. Most homes have about 125 to 200 linear feet of gutters, though larger homes could have more.

That said, some contractors write an estimate based on the square footage of your home rather than the length of your gutters. In this case, they’ll charge around $0.40 per square foot for the first floor and $0.80 per square foot for the second floor.

Gutter LengthAverage Cleaning Cost
100$105–$185
125$135–$230
150$160–$275
200$215–$365

Height of Roof

Because gutters on single-story homes are easier and safer to reach, they’ll cost less to clean. The higher the roofline, the more cleaning gutters costs, especially since maneuvering ladders into position will make your project take longer. You’ll pay about $0.95 to $1.30 per linear foot for a one-story home or $1 to $1.90 per linear foot for a two-story home.

Here’s a look at gutter cleaning costs based on house height:

Height (stories)Average Cost (linear foot)Average Job Cost
1$0.95–$1.30$145–$260
2$1–$1.90$180–$370
3$1.25–$2.30$210–$460

Type

There are two main types of gutters: seamed and seamless. Seamed gutters are the more traditional (and costlier) option, while seamless gutters are popular for new gutter installations and are easier to clean.

Here are some key differences between seamed and seamless gutters:

Gutter Pro Costs

Other factors can also affect your gutter cleaning costs. If your gutters require repairs or need additional attention, your gutter cleaning pro in Phoenix has solutions. However, you may also need the services of other pros, particularly if the trees on your property also need attention.   

Labor

While cleaning your home's gutters is possible as a DIY project, the risks of injury from falling off a ladder or the roof are high. Most homeowners simply hire a pro to stay safe. The bulk of the price of gutter cleaning consists of your contractor's labor costs and overhead. Below are factors that can affect the cost of labor. 

  • Expect increased labor costs of up to 15% if your home's roof is particularly steep or is hard to reach by ladder alone, as your contractor may require additional equipment and working time to stay safe. 

  • Gutters that are in poor condition clog more easily and can take longer to clear, resulting in higher overall labor costs. 

  • Having gutter guards on your home's system reduces gutter-cleaning frequency. However, if removing the guards to clean the gutters is necessary, it can increase the job's cost on a per-time basis.  

Trip Charge

Some gutter cleaning companies include a trip charge for individual jobs, particularly for smaller projects. Trip charges vary considerably between companies and can be per mile or per trip. To help minimize trip charges, ask your pro about scheduling regular cleanings at a discount.    

Tipping

Gutter cleaning professionals don't expect tips for the work they provide. However, if your contractor does a particularly great job or provides money-saving suggestions, you may consider offering a $10 or $20 tip for each associate on the job.  

Additional Pros to Consider Hiring

If your gutters, fascia, or soffit are in poor condition or need repairs due to gutter issues, investing in repairs now can save significant amounts later. Additionally, trimming nearby trees can help reduce gutter clogging frequency and lower your gutter cleaning costs overall. 

Does Gutter Cleaning Increase Home Value?

Gutter cleaning is a maintenance task that doesn't do much to boost your home's value on its own. However, proper gutter system maintenance will reduce the potential for water damage and help maintain the house's value and its integrity. While Phoenix doesn't receive as much rainfall as many parts of the country, when it does rain, gutter problems can lead to hidden mold growth. 

Additionally, if your gutter system is in significant disrepair and requires replacement, the cost of installing new gutters ranges from $600 to $1,700. While new gutters don't provide a substantial ROI on their own either, they will help maintain your equity by protecting your Phoenix home’s structure.
