Gutter Cleaning in San Antonio, TX

Gutter Cleaning · San Antonio, TX

Cleared inside, brightened outside, water moving where it should

Gutter cleaning is a twice a year job at most San Antonio homes. Live oaks drop a heavy load of leaves every spring. Cedar and oak pollen, shingle grit and seed pods fill in the rest. We clear the troughs by hand, bag what comes out, and flush every downspout.

Clogged gutters send water over the lip and down your wall. That soaks fascia boards and drops rain right at the foundation. We clean the inside and the outside face in one visit. Many owners add a soft wash of the siding on the same day.

What We Handle

  • Hand clean-out of the full gutter run, corner to corner
  • Leaves, seed pods, shingle grit and pollen sludge bagged and hauled off
  • Downspouts flushed and checked for flow at the outlet
  • Gutter face brightening that lifts black tiger stripes and chalky oxidation
  • Overflow stains on the fascia pointed out to you while we work
  • Ladder work on one story and two story homes
  • Ground debris picked up before we pull off the property
  • Residential and commercial buildings, with repeat visits on a schedule

What our gutter cleaning service clears out

Live oaks cause most of the trouble here. They hold their leaves through winter, then drop them in spring as new growth comes in. That shed lands in March and April, right before the wettest stretch of the year. Gutters under a big live oak pack tight in a few weeks.

Pollen is the second load. Mountain cedar runs from December into February, and oak pollen peaks in late March. That fine grit mixes with shingle granules and turns to sludge in the trough. We scoop it out by hand instead of pushing it toward the downspout.

We work the full run, then flush each downspout until water runs clean at the bottom. Black streaks on the shingles above are a separate job. Those come off with our roof cleaning service, which uses low pressure and cleaning solutions.

Gutter brightening for tiger stripes and oxidation

Those black stripes down the face of your gutters have a name. Painted aluminum builds a chalky oxidized layer as it ages. Roof runoff carries shingle granules, dust and pollen over the lip, and that grime bonds to the chalk. The result is the striping you can see from the driveway.

Regular house washing leaves those stripes in place. They bond to the finish, so the face needs its own cleaner and hand work. We apply the cleaner, let it sit, scrub the face, and rinse from the top down. Most gutters come back to an even color across the run.

Brightening pairs well with the rest of the exterior wash. The same low pressure approach behind our soft wash method lets the cleaner do the work instead of the water. We price gutter brightening on the length of your run and how set the stripes are.

When to schedule gutter cleaning in San Antonio

Two visits a year fit most homes on the corridor. The first comes after the spring live oak drop, ahead of the May storms. The second comes in late fall, once the last leaf litter is down. Homes under heavy tree cover usually want a third pass.

Standing water is the other reason to stay on schedule. A clogged trough can hold gallons for days after a storm. The CDC tells homeowners to clear standing water first for mosquito control, and roof gutters make that list. Clearing the trough takes the water away.

We cover the San Antonio to Austin corridor, roughly 30 miles out from the city. That takes in the Hill Country side and the towns along I-35. The full list sits on our service areas page. Call or text (512) 905-8038 for a free estimate.

FAQ

Gutter Cleaning Questions, Answered

Common questions about gutter cleaning across the San Antonio to Austin corridor. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (512) 905-8038

How much does gutter cleaning cost?
Our services start at $299, and the estimate is free. Gutter pricing follows the length of the run and the height of the home. Packed gutters and heavy striping take longer, so those price higher. Financing is available on larger projects.
How often should gutters be cleaned in San Antonio?
Twice a year works for most homes here. Book the first visit after the live oaks finish dropping in spring, and the second in late fall. Homes with big oaks over the roof do better with a third visit in summer.
Do you clean the outside of the gutters too?
Yes. The face gets its own treatment, and that is what lifts the black tiger stripes and the chalky oxidation. Interior clean-out and exterior brightening are separate parts of the job. Tell us when you call if you want both, and we will quote them together.
Do I still need gutter cleaning if I have gutter guards?
Usually yes, just less often. Guards keep the big leaves out. Shingle grit, pollen mats and seed pods still slip through or pile on top. Where the guards lift out, we clear what has settled underneath and set them back.
What do you use to clean the gutters?
The inside is hand work plus a water flush at each downspout. The outside face gets a cleaner and a soft brush, then a low pressure rinse. High pressure stays off the gutter face and off the shingles above it.
Can you clean the windows on the same visit?
Yes. Plenty of homeowners add exterior window washing while we are out, since the ladder work is already set up. Mention it when you call or text (512) 905-8038 and we will price both together.

I had them power wash my driveway, and it turned out amazing! They got all the oil stains and dirt off, and now it looks like it was just paved. I’m really happy with the results and would definitely recommend them!
