Gutter cleaning
in Scranton
Cleared by hand, flow tested at every downspout, and photographed so you know what you paid for. Booking through the autumn across Scranton and the surrounding boroughs.
What will it cost?
Tell us the address and the storey count. You get a real number back the same day.
The job, step by step
Four things happen, in this order
Almost none of this happens where you can watch it. That is exactly why it is written down here, and why you get the pictures at the end.
Hand clearing, not just a blast
Debris comes out by hand into a bucket. A pressure wand just pushes packed leaf mulch into the downspout. That turns a clog you can see into one you cannot.
Every downspout flow tested
We run water through each one and watch it come out the bottom. A clear gutter feeding a blocked downspout is still a blocked system.
Debris hauled off
It leaves with us. No bags on the lawn, nothing raked into the beds.
Photos before and after
You cannot see your own gutters from the ground. So you get pictures of what they looked like and what they look like now.
Why there is no price on this page
Because any number we posted would be wrong for most houses. A single storey ranch with short gutter runs is not the same job as a neglected three storey Victorian. Pretending otherwise is how you get a quote that changes when the van turns up.
What drives it is storey count, total run of gutter, roof pitch and access. Send the address and the storey count. You get a real figure back the same day, and if it is not worth doing we will say so.

The things people ask
When should gutters be cleaned in Scranton?
Late autumn is the one that matters, after the leaves have finished dropping and before the first hard freeze. In this part of Pennsylvania that usually means the back half of November. A lot of houses with heavy tree cover also want a spring clear to move the seed pods and winter debris.
How much does gutter cleaning cost?
It depends on the size of the house, how many storeys, the run of gutter, and how bad it has got. We quote per property rather than posting a flat rate that would be wrong for most homes. Send the form and you get a real number, not a range.
Do I need to be home?
No. The work is all outside. Most people are at work when it happens. You get the photos when we are done either way.
How long does it take?
A typical single-family house is an hour to two hours. Larger properties, steep roofs or gutters that have not been touched in a few years take longer.
Do you repair gutters or fit guards?
No. Cleaning only. If we find a seam pulling apart, rot behind the fascia or a section hanging loose, we tell you. You get a photo so you can have it dealt with. We do not quote work we do not do.
What if it rains?
We move you to the next dry slot and let you know. Nobody works a wet roof, and anyone who says otherwise is not somebody you want up there.
Weighing up how to hire
Most people start on a marketplace
Fair enough, they are free and they are quick. These pages explain how each one works for a homeowner, using what each company publishes about itself.
