About Des Moines Gutter Cleaners

What We Do

Three things: we clean gutters, we brighten them, and we maintain them for commercial properties. Across the Des Moines metro, in Polk, Dallas, and Warren Counties.

We do not install gutters. We do not repair them. We do not sell gutter guards. We do not clean windows or wash houses. Those are separate trades, and companies that do all of it tend to treat cleaning as the thing they do while they are up there looking for the bigger job.

That is the short version of what makes us different in this metro. Nearly every company that will quote your gutters here is really something else: a window cleaner, a pressure washer, a gutter installer. Gutter cleaning is their fifth service, or their way onto your roof. It is our only one.

Why the Narrow Scope

Two reasons, and the first one is just competence. Doing one thing all season means doing it a lot, and gutters reward that more than they look like they should. Two houses on the same street, built the same year by the same builder, will fill up at completely different rates, and the reason is usually something you can only learn by having seen it before. None of that is difficult. It just takes repetition, and repetition is the thing a crew never gets when gutters are what they do between window jobs.

The second reason is that it removes the conflict. When the company cleaning your gutters also sells gutter replacement, every cleaning is also a sales call, and you have no way to know whether the problem they found is real.

Our only upsell is a second visit next season. If we find something wrong up there, we tell you and we point you at someone who does that work. There is no version of this where we benefit from your gutters being worse than they are.

How We Price

From your address and roof height, over the phone, before anyone drives out. Most metro homes land in a predictable range and we would rather tell you the number than send someone to your driveway to build up to it.

Downspouts are part of the job rather than an add-on, because a clean gutter draining into a packed downspout is not a finished job. The debris leaves with us.

The Part Most Companies Skip

Iowa has no license for gutter cleaning. The state licenses plumbers and electricians. It does not license gutter cleaners, and there is no exam, no inspection, and no competency standard specific to this work. Anyone with a ladder can start tomorrow, and plenty do.

We would rather say that out loud than pretend a credential exists. It means the questions you ask matter more here than in a licensed trade: ask what is included, ask whether downspouts are part of it, ask whether the debris leaves. Ask us, and ask whoever else you call.

Where We Work

We are a service-area business, so there is no shop to visit. We come to you across West Des Moines, Johnston, Clive, Norwalk, Polk City, and the surrounding metro.
