How Much Does Gutter Cleaning Cost in Portland?
Portland's rainy climate and all those beautiful trees mean one thing: your gutters work overtime. I see it all the time when I'm out on jobs. Between the Douglas fir needles, maple leaves, and our 40+ inches of rain each year, gutters fill up fast and need regular attention.
Average Gutter Cleaning Prices
For most homeowners I work with in Portland, here's what gutter cleaning typically costs:
- Small 1-story home (1,000-1,200 sq ft): $125-$175
- Medium 1-story home (1,500-1,800 sq ft): $160-$225
- 2-story home (2,000-2,500 sq ft): $220-$350
- Larger 2-story home (2,500+ sq ft): $280-$425
The average cost runs around $235 for a typical Portland home. If your gutters haven't been cleaned in over a year, expect to pay 10-20% more since compacted debris takes longer to remove.
Why It's Worth It
I've seen too many homes with thousands in water damage from clogged gutters. We're talking rotted fascia ($1,500-$5,000 to repair), foundation issues ($2,000-$10,000+), and basement flooding. Spending $200-$300 twice a year is way cheaper than dealing with those headaches.
Plus, when I clean gutters, I also check for roof damage, loose sections, and potential problems before they become expensive repairs.
Best Time to Schedule
In Portland, I recommend cleaning your gutters twice a year: late spring (May) and late fall (November). You'll catch the bulk of debris after the big leaf drop and before winter rains really kick in. Schedule in early fall or late summer if you want to avoid the seasonal rush and potentially save a bit on pricing.
