Stop Water Damage Before It Starts — Gutter Cleaning in Columbus, OH
Clogged gutters send water into your roof, siding, and foundation. We hand-clean every gutter, flush the downspouts, bag the debris, and send you photos of the results — so you know it's actually done right.
Everything Your Gutters Need
From a fall cleanout to guards that end the chore for good.
Clogged Gutters Are a Foundation Problem Waiting to Happen
It's easy to ignore gutters until water is running down your siding or pooling in the basement. Overflowing gutters push water behind fascia boards, under shingles, and straight down against your foundation — the most expensive place a house can leak. A one-hour cleaning is the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy. We clear it out by hand, prove it with photos, and keep the water going where it should.

Clean Gutters, Dry Foundations
Columbus homes with gutters flowing the way they should.
Where the Water Goes When Gutters Fail
The damage a clogged gutter quietly causes — until it isn't quiet anymore.
Behind the fascia & under shingles
Overflow backs up under the roof edge, rotting fascia boards and soaking the decking where it's most expensive to fix.
Down the siding & into the walls
Water sheeting off a clogged gutter stains siding and finds its way behind it, feeding mold and rot.
Straight into the foundation
Pooling at the base of the house is how basements leak and foundations crack — the priciest damage of all.

What Columbus Homeowners Say
The maples in Clintonville had packed our gutters solid. Whitaker & Boyd cleared them, flushed the downspouts, and showed me photos of everything they pulled out. Water finally drains right. No more overflow onto the porch.
We kept getting water in the basement every heavy rain. Turned out the gutters were overflowing against the foundation. They cleaned and re-pitched them and the basement's been dry since. Should have called years ago.
Had gutter guards installed and it's been a game changer — no more twice-a-year cleaning with all our oak trees. Professional install, fair price, and they hauled away all the old debris.

Gutter Cleaning Questions, Answered
How often should I have my gutters cleaned?
Most Columbus homes need it twice a year — late spring and after the fall leaf drop. Homes with lots of oaks, maples, or pines may need it more often, which is where gutter guards start to pay off.
Do you just blow the gutters out?
No. We remove debris by hand and bag it, then flush the downspouts. Blowing gutters out just scatters the debris onto your roof and lawn — where it washes right back in. Hand-cleaning is the only way to actually clear them.
Are gutter guards worth it?
If you have heavy tree cover, yes — quality guards dramatically cut how often you need cleaning and prevent the clogs that cause water damage. We install guards we'd put on our own homes and won't oversell you if you don't need them.
How much does gutter cleaning cost in Columbus?
Most single-story homes fall in a predictable range; two-story and heavily treed homes are a bit more. You'll get a free, upfront quote before we book — no surprises.
