What the job is

A gutter clean is not a rinse. Leaves, pine straw, roof grit and the compacted silt that builds underneath it are lifted out of the trough by hand, then the downspouts are checked to make sure the water has somewhere to go. Flushing a full gutter with a hose moves the blockage along the run and into the downspout, where it is harder to reach.

In the Triangle the debris is mostly oak leaf and pine straw, and pine straw is the awkward one: it knits together into a mat that holds water against the metal long after the rain stops. That mat is what a hose pushes around and what hand-clearing actually removes.

Why the photos matter

Almost nobody gets on a ladder to check their own gutters, which means almost nobody knows whether the work was done. The technicians here photograph the gutters as they go, and customers mention it repeatedly in the reviews. You see what was up there and what it looks like now.

Raleigh Gutter Cleaning is firefighter owned and operated. Aaron Proctor runs it as a local small business, and the habits that come with the day job show up in the reviews: he answers the phone, he tells you who is coming, and the crew treats a ladder on a wet roof as something to be done properly rather than quickly.

The work

What is included

  • Gutters cleared by hand. Debris is removed from the trough, not pushed along it.
  • Downspouts checked. So the water that reaches the trough actually leaves it.
  • The work photographed. Before and after, without you climbing anything.
  • Ground cleaned. Sidewalk, porch and beds cleared before the crew leaves.
  • A named crew. You are told who is coming before the day.
Questions

Gutter cleaning: what people ask

How much does gutter cleaning cost in Raleigh?

Price depends on the house: how much roof there is, how high it is, and how much is up there. Reviews repeatedly describe the pricing as fair and reasonable. Call (919) 630-2033 with your address and Aaron will quote it.

How long does a gutter cleaning take?

Most single-family homes are a single visit. The variables are the height of the house and how long it has been since the last clean.

Do I need to be home?

No. The work is outside and it is photographed, so you can see what was done whether or not you were there.

What happens to the debris?

It comes away with the crew, and the ground around the house is cleared. Customers mention sidewalks and porches being left cleaner than they found them.
