Why Gutter Cleaning is Lucrative
I just wrapped up a little gutter job and wanted to share my experience. We’re about to head down to see some family, but I had a couple of quick jobs to knock out. This house was a one-story, 1,800 square foot property, and I charged $200 for the job. It took me about 20 minutes on the roof. Sure, there’s driving time and setup, but here's why I have a minimum charge of $200 for gutters:
- Inconvenience and Risk: Gutter cleaning is inconvenient and can be risky. Customers call us because they’re not comfortable or competent getting on the roof. That’s where we come in.
- Safety Concerns: Whether you have insurance or not, falling off a roof can be fatal or life-altering. That risk needs to be factored into your pricing.
Pricing Strategy
We set a minimum price of $200, even if it's just for one side of the house. People are willing to pay for the peace of mind knowing they don’t have to risk their safety. Sometimes, these jobs only take 20 minutes, but the charge is justified by the risks involved.

Essential Tips for Gutter Cleaning
- Dry Debris: Use a blower for dry debris to make the job quicker.
- Wet Debris: For wet debris, a water hose is more effective. Just be careful not to blow debris all over the house.
Recommended Product: Gutter Guard
When it comes to cleaning gutters efficiently, Gutter Guard is a game-changer. Here’s why you should consider it:
- Highly Efficient: Gutter Guard is cost-effective and highly efficient at removing black stripes from gutters.
- Versatile Use: Depending on the severity of the soil, it can be a touchless spray-on and rinse solution or require light agitation with a soft brush.
- Super Concentrated: This makes it attractive for shipping and cost-efficient. Dilute Gutter Guard with two parts water to one part product, or up to three parts water to one part product for lighter soils.
How to Use Gutter Guard
- Preparation: Dilute Gutter Guard as needed. For general cleaning, a 2:1 water-to-product ratio works best.
- Application: Wet down the gutter with the ready-to-use solution or apply a more concentrated solution using your pressure washer chemical injector.
- Rinse: Rinse off with lower pressure. For heavily soiled areas, light brushing with a soft brush may be necessary.
