The cost to clean gutters usually ranges from $120 to $230, depending on the type, length, and location. Seamless gutters usually come in at the lower end of that range since the lack of seams means there are fewer places for debris to build up. In fact, seamless gutter cleanings usually cost 10% to 25% less than sectional gutter cleanings.

To clean the tops of gutter guards, use a soft-bristle brush or a leaf blower to remove debris like leaves, twigs, or dirt. For stubborn grime, spray the guards with a garden hose, directing water downward to avoid forcing debris into the gutter. If the guards are removable, take them off and rinse thoroughly before reattaching. Regular cleaning, especially during fall or after storms, will help maintain their effectiveness.
Gutters should be cleanedat leasttwice a year, in the spring and in the fall, to remove the debris from trees that can clog the eavestroughs and downspouts.
