"Paid $140 to think I would get more of a cleaning then I received. Kid shows up with a blower and just blows off my gutter guards. Outrageously expensive"

"A week later, we found out that all four corners of the gutters had not been caulked and were out of place and it was severely leaking, and we found out that the screens had not been cut right and they have been pushed up under the singles and been breaking the singles. We found that there were screens laying in the gutters and not attached together and half of them were missing. We call him to come back and fix them but he didn't show up. He said that his name was Harold Boscer but that was not his real name, we found out that his real name is Scott Belcher. I couldn't climb up and check if it was done right. I didn't have anybody at that time that could do that so I've paid him the money. I paid him before I found out about the gutter that are leaking and the screens are missing. Later on, my maintenance man climbed up and check then found out that everything was wrong and had not been done right. I had to bring another company in and pay them $800 to fix all of the mistakes. I found out that he gave me his fake name and his real name is Scott Belcher. Later, I found out that he has done bad work to other people before, no way will I ever use this man again."

FAQs for gutters & downspouts cleaning service projects in Tama, IA

You’ll want to clean gutters once or twice a year—in early spring and again in fall—to keep water flowing and avoid pricey leaks. Homes tucked beneath tall trees or hit with heavy debris may need two to four visits instead. Staying on schedule protects your roof, siding, and foundation from costly water damage.

Even with gutter guards, plan on an occasional cleaning—just not as often as homes without guards. Installing gutter guards blocks leaves, but grit and shingle granules still slip through and pile up over time. A quick sweep keeps water moving and stops overflow that can damage your roof or foundation.

Watch for overflowing water, slow or silent downspouts, sagging sections, or debris peeking over the gutter edge. You might also spot water stains, weeds, or an increasing number of ants in certain areas. Any of these red flags means it’s time to call a gutter cleaning pro for service before minor clogs turn into major leaks.

Skip cleanings for too long and gutters overflow, sending water under shingles, down siding, and toward the foundation. The result can be mold, rotted fascia, basement leaks, and repair bills that dwarf the price of a quick cleaning. It can also mean that future cleanings will be more expensive as it will take pros longer to deep clean gutters that are full of heavy debris. Staying on schedule saves money and headaches.

Plan on gutter cleaning service to take an average of one hour for an average single-story home and two to three hours for taller houses. Add extra time if gutter guards need to come off or clogs are packed in. Pros work methodically, clearing every linear foot so water can flow freely again.
