Clogged gutters are easy to ignore until water spills over the edge, stains the siding, or pools against the foundation. Here is what gutter cleaning costs in Arlington and the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and what should be included for the price.
The Short Answer
Most homes in DFW pay $125 to $275 for professional gutter cleaning. A one-story home with light debris lands at the lower end. Two-story homes, long gutter runs, and heavily packed gutters land toward the top.

What Changes the Price
Number of stories
Second-story gutters take more time and more careful ladder work, so they cost more than a single-story home.
Length of the gutter runs
More linear feet of gutter means more to clean. Homes with lots of corners, dormers, and downspouts take longer.
How clogged they are
A light layer of leaves goes quickly. Packed debris, seedlings growing in the gutter, or mud from years of buildup takes much longer.
Trees near the house
Homes under oaks, pecans, and other large trees fill their gutters faster and often need more frequent cleaning.
What a Professional Gutter Cleaning Includes
- Removing leaves, twigs, and packed debris by hand
- Bagging the debris and hauling it away
- Flushing the downspouts and checking that water flows freely
- A look for loose hangers or sagging sections you should know about

How Often Should Gutters Be Cleaned in Texas?
We recommend twice a year for most North Texas homes, usually in late spring and again in fall after leaves drop. Homes with heavy tree cover may need it more often. Read more in how often to clean gutters in Arlington.
DIY vs. Hiring a Pro
Cleaning your own single-story gutters is doable with a sturdy ladder, gloves, and a helper. Second-story gutters are where most ladder accidents happen, so many homeowners choose a pro for those. If you do it yourself, our guide on cleaning gutter downspouts helps with the part most people skip.
