Four steps, every visit.
- 01
Ladder with a stand-off
It rests on the wall or the roof, never on the gutter, and stays well clear of power lines.
02Scooped out by hand
Leaves, needles and sludge lifted out, not blown across your lawn and windows.
03Every downspout flushed
Water run through each one and checked at the outlet, so the next rain reaches the ground away from the foundation.

What’s included
- Every gutter cleaned by hand with a scoop, not blown onto your lawn and windows.
- Every downspout flushed with water and checked at the outlet. A downspout clogged underground (in a buried drain) is noted with a photo; clearing a buried drain is a separate job.
- Debris bagged in paper yard-waste bags, left at your curb where your town collects yard waste, or hauled away where it doesn’t (+$25).
- Before-and-after photos of each side of the house, sent with your receipt.
- A note on anything loose: a sagging hanger, a gap at a joint, an elbow that has come off. We tell you; we don’t upsell on site.
When to book in Greater Boston
At Boston Logan the average high is 51.6 °F in November and 42.2 °F in December, and most snow falls from December on (9 in in December, 14.3 in in January, 1991–2020 normals). Gutter cleaning runs until mid-December; book early in a heavy leaf year.
The best date is after your trees are bare, usually from early November to early December in the suburbs we serve.
The spring visit clears what fell over the winter (seeds, needles, roof grit) before the April rains. Book both now with the spring + fall plan and both visits are 10% off.
For a detached two-storey home, the two-visit plan is $448.20 total: $224.10 after each completed visit. Selected add-ons apply on both visits. We arrange the opposite-season visit with you separately.
Why it matters
Water that can’t get down the downspouts spills over the gutter and lands next to your foundation. The University of Minnesota Extension notes that a great number of basement water problems can be solved by handling rainwater with working gutters and downspouts, discharging at least 4 feet from the wall.
How the visit works
- The pro texts when they’re on the way, within your morning or afternoon window. You don’t need to be home if the gates are open.
- Ladder with a stand-off, so it rests on the wall or roof, not on the gutter. Ladders stay well clear of overhead power lines.
- Cleaning and flushing: about 1 to 2 hours for most houses.
- Photos and the card link: you pay once you’ve seen the work.
Gutter guards
Already have guards? We lift and reset them (+$60), because leaves and grit still build up under most screens. Want new guards? Tell us when you book: a partner installer measures and quotes in person, and you decide after.

How much does gutter cleaning cost in Greater Boston?
With UpkeepGo: $169 for a townhouse or semi, $189 for a detached bungalow, $249 for a detached two-storey and $339 for a large or three-storey house. Existing guards add $60.
Do I need to be home?
No, as long as the gates are open and the pro can reach every side. You get the photos and the payment link by text.
What if it rains on my date?
Light rain doesn’t stop the work. Heavy rain, ice or high wind does: we text to move you to the next free slot, at the same price.
Can you clean my gutters in December?
Usually until mid-December in the Boston suburbs. Once the gutters are frozen we stop and book you for spring.
Do you repair gutters?
We note and photograph anything loose or leaking. Repairs and new gutters are quoted separately by a partner installer; you are never charged for repairs on a cleaning visit.
Are your pros insured?
Yes. Every partner pro carries commercial general liability insurance before their first UpkeepGo job, and we check it again every 90 days.
