What to know before you book

Signs a downspout is blocked

Water pours over the gutter near the downspout in a storm, the downspout gurgles or drips instead of running, or nothing comes out at the bottom. Leaves and seed pods jam at the elbows, and a garden hose or a plumber's snake usually clears them.

Many cleanings include a flush. When they don't, it's $25–$100 per downspout, and $60–$150 if the crew has to take the elbows apart. Adding an extension ($30–$60) moves the water away from the foundation.

What small repairs cost

Leaks at seams, corners and end caps cost $50–$150 to clean and reseal. Gutters that sag or pull away get new hangers for $75–$200. Both are cheaper on a cleaning visit than on a separate trip, which often comes with a minimum service fee.

A full repair visit for a sagging run, a bad slope or storm damage runs $75–$625, with $350 typical in 2026 cost data. Two-story repairs often cost about twice as much as one-story ones.

Compare

Repair or replace

Replace when the gutters are rusted through, split in many places or pulling loose along most of the house. New seamless aluminum gutters cost $8–$15 a foot installed, about $1,600–$3,000 for 200 ft before downspouts. A downspout costs about $8 a foot.

Licenses and who to call

A gutter cleaning company can handle seals, hangers and downspouts. For new gutters, hire a gutter or roofing contractor. In California, any job of $1,000 or more, labor and materials together, needs a state contractor's license; check your own state's rules before you sign.
