What gutter cleaning covers
High Quality Roofing cleans gutters across San Jose by hand: leaves, needles, roof grit and nests out, debris bagged, then every downspout flushed with water to prove it drains. We check seams, hangers and slope on the way, and fix small leaks and sagging sections during the same visit. The estimate is free.
Who calls us for this
Homes under oaks, sycamores, pines or liquidambar trees that drop into the gutters every fall. Anyone who has watched water pour over the gutter edge instead of down the downspout, or found a puddle against the foundation after a storm.
Signs you need gutter cleaning.
Water spilling over the front edge
When a gutter is full, rain jumps straight over it and lands next to your foundation, the one place you least want it.
Plants growing along the roofline
If seedlings have taken root in the gutter, there is enough soil in there to hold water against the fascia board all winter.
Gutters pulling away from the house
A gutter full of wet leaves is heavy. The weight bends hangers and pulls screws out of the fascia, and the run starts to sag.
Stains or peeling paint under the eaves
Overflow runs down the fascia and siding. Left alone, it rots the wood behind the gutter, which turns a cleaning into a carpentry job.
What's included
- Hand-clearing of every gutter run, with debris bagged and removed
- Downspouts flushed and unblocked, then tested with running water
- A check of seams, end caps, hangers and slope
- Small repairs on the spot: resealed seams, re-hung sections, loose downspouts
- A note of anything on the roof edge that needs attention
What it costs
The estimate is free, and you get a fixed price before any work starts. What moves the price:
| Price factor |
|---|
| Length of gutter and how many downspouts the house has |
| One or two stories, and how easy the edges are to reach |
| How full the gutters are, and whether anything is growing in them |
| Repairs found during the clean, which we price before doing |
Gutter cleaning and the San Jose weather.
In San Jose, the right time to clean gutters is late fall, after the trees have dropped and before the winter storms. Homes under heavy tree cover usually need a second clean in spring. A gutter that is clear in October can be full again by the first big storm if the oaks next door shed late, so it is worth looking after windy weeks.
Why we test downspouts with water
A gutter can look clean from the ladder while the downspout below it is packed solid at the elbow. Running water through each one is the only way to know the system works before the storm does the test for you.
What overflowing gutters do to a house
Water that misses the downspout soaks the soil against the foundation, splashes the siding and runs behind the gutter into the fascia board. Dry rot in fascia and rafter tails often starts with a gutter that overflowed for a few winters.
