The Scope
What a gutter cleaning includes
Clearing the channel is only half the job — if the downspouts are blocked, the water still has nowhere to go. A proper visit handles both, and confirms the system actually drains.
Gutter Guards
- Clean debris off existing guards
- Adjust & reseat loose sections
- Install new guards on request
- Cut how often gutters need clearing
Exterior Face Cleaning
- Wash the visible gutter face
- Remove streaks & “tiger stripes”
- Brighten the roofline’s look
- Optional add-on to any clean

Detail
Clogged gutters cost more than they look
Why It Matters
When gutters fill, water spills over the edge and runs straight down the fascia and siding — then pools at the foundation. Over a season or two that shows up as rotted fascia, stained siding, and water finding its way toward the foundation. Clearing them is cheap insurance against repairs that aren’t. The two times it matters most: after leaf season, when the channels fill fastest, and after a wind or rain storm, when a single storm can pack a gutter solid. Our guides cover how often to clean gutters here, what clogged gutters do to your home, the signs it’s overdue, and whether gutter guards are worth it.

Who It’s For
Our gutter work has been residential to date, and homes are where this service is built to shine — single-story ranches through multi-story homes with more complex rooflines. If you manage a commercial property, we’re open to it by inquiry: send us the details and we’ll see whether we can match you with the right professional for the job.

Terms & scope
Gutter cleaning terms, defined.
| Term | What it means at Maid VIP |
|---|---|
| Clearing and flushing | Debris removal from the gutter run, then a downspout flush to confirm the system drains; a clear gutter with a blocked downspout still overflows. |
| Roof and gutter repair | Repair is a roofer's job; gutter cleaning is maintenance, not repair. |
| Gutter guards | Guards reduce, not remove, the need for cleaning: are gutter guards worth it. |
| Residential / house | Single-storey and two-storey homes in Los Angeles and Ventura County; commercial buildings by inquiry. |
| Pressure washing, power washing, window cleaning | Outdoor tile, pavers and pool decks are pressure-cleaned under tile & grout; other pressure washing is not a Maid VIP service. Windows are a separate service: window cleaning. |
| Frequency | Once or twice a year in Southern California, before and after the rainy season: how often; signs they need it. |
| Price | Quoted flat on the roofline: linear feet, storeys and guards. Gutter cleaning cost guide. |

Common Questions
Gutter cleaning FAQ
How much does gutter cleaning cost?
Gutter cleaning is quote-based: price depends on your home's size and roofline, the linear footage of gutters, and whether you add gutter guards or exterior-face cleaning. You receive a fixed quote — price and estimated time — before anything is scheduled. For real 2026 ranges by home size and condition, see our gutter cleaning cost guide.
What does a gutter cleaning include?
A standard visit clears all debris from the gutters by hand, flushes the downspouts, and confirms water flows freely. Cleaning the exterior gutter face and installing or servicing gutter guards are available add-ons.
Do you install or clean gutter guards?
Both. The referred professionals clean and adjust existing guards, clear debris that collects on top of them, and can install new guards if you'd like to cut down on how often the gutters need clearing.
How often should gutters be cleaned?
Once or twice a year for most homes — typically after leaf season. Homes under heavy tree cover, or anyone coming out of a wind or rain storm, often benefit from a more frequent or one-off clearing.
Do you offer commercial gutter cleaning?
Our gutter work has been residential to date, and that's our focus. We're open to commercial properties by inquiry — reach out with the details and we'll see whether we can match you with the right professional.
Do you repair or replace gutters?
No. The referred professionals clean gutters and install guards; they don't perform structural gutter repair or replacement. If a section is damaged or pulling away, that's a separate trade outside this service.
