Gutter Cleaning
Clogged gutters can’t do their one job — moving rainwater away from your roof and foundation. We clear leaves, twigs, and debris by hand, check for damage, and leave your property spotless, so the next storm drains the way it’s supposed to.
The Chimney Sweep has provided gutter cleaning across Dallas–Fort Worth since 1980, bringing the same care and attention to detail we’re known for in chimney work to exterior home maintenance.
Why Gutter Cleaning Matters
Gutters are designed to move rainwater safely away from your roofline and foundation. When they’re clogged with leaves, twigs, and roof grit, water backs up and overflows instead, causing deterioration to your roofline, fascia boards, foundation, and landscaping. Routine cleaning helps you avoid water damage to your roof and walls, mold and mildew growth, soil erosion, ice dams in winter, and insect infestations from standing water.
What Regular Gutter Cleaning Protects
Prevents water damage to your roofline
Overflowing gutters send water where it shouldn't go — straight into your fascia boards and roof edge.
Keeps water away from your home's base
Clogged downspouts let water pool right where your foundation needs it least.
Prevents erosion and washed-out beds
Overflow from clogged gutters is a common cause of eroded soil and damaged flower beds.
Removes standing water that attracts both
Stagnant water in clogged gutters is an easy breeding ground for insects and mold.
Our Gutter Cleaning Process
Thorough, mess-free, and careful with your roof and landscaping.
Visual Inspection
We assess the entire gutter system for damage, sagging, or blockages.
Debris Removal
All leaves, twigs, roof grit, and organic buildup are cleared from the gutters by hand or with specialized tools.
Downspout Clearing
We ensure all downspouts are flowing freely and flushing water properly away from the home.
System Check
We confirm gutters are sloped correctly and securely attached to the structure.
Site Cleanup
All debris is bagged and removed from your property, leaving no mess behind.
Gutters often clog during the same season chimneys need sweeping — many customers bundle gutter cleaning with a chimney sweep for efficient seasonal maintenance.
Signs Your Gutters Need Cleaning
- Water overflowing the sides during rain
- Visible sagging or pulling away from the roofline
- Vegetation or plants growing out of the gutters
- Water stains on the siding below the gutter line
- It's been six months or more since the last cleaning
We recommend cleaning gutters at least twice a year — spring and fall — with more frequent service for homes surrounded by pine trees or dense foliage.
Gutter Maintenance Tips
- Inspect gutters after any major storm, not just on a seasonal schedule
- Watch for granules from asphalt shingles collecting in the gutter — a sign of roof wear
- Keep downspouts clear at the base, not just at the top
- Consider gutter guards if you have heavy tree coverage
- Don't attempt gutter cleaning yourself on a steep or multi-story roofline
