Hire the best
gutter cleaners in
Portland, Oregon.

Most Portland houses land between $150 and $315 for a full clean, with a typical single-storey home around $200 and a large two-storey around $305. A small cottage with one roofline can come in near $100, and a complex multi-storey roof packed with moss can reach $550. Price follows the length of guttering, how high it is, and how much is in there. Skoq prices your job against the live local market rate and shows the number on the page before you commit to anything.

Twice a year in the Portland area — once in late autumn after the big-leaf maples have finished dropping, and once in spring after the Douglas fir needles and catkins come down. That is more often than the national once-a-year advice, and it is a genuine regional difference: fir needles fall year-round and pack into a mat that leaves alone never form. Houses under heavy conifer cover often need a third visit.

Water backs up over the front edge and lands against the foundation instead of draining away, which is how crawlspaces and basements get wet. Standing debris holds moisture against the fascia board and rots it, and the weight of a packed, waterlogged gutter pulls the hangers out of the roof edge. In a Portland winter this shows up fast — an atmospheric river will find a blocked gutter within one storm.

Every run of gutter cleared by hand of leaves, needles and grit, all downspouts checked and flushed so water actually leaves the property, debris bagged and taken away, and the gutter line looked over while someone is up there — loose hangers, sagging sections, separated seams and rot get reported back to you. Moss removal and gutter guard removal and refitting are priced as add-ons.

A typical single-storey house with 100–150 feet of guttering takes about 1 to 2 hours. A two-storey home, or 200 feet or more of roofline, usually runs 2 to 4 hours. Heavy moss or gutters that have not been touched in several years take longer, because packed debris has to be lifted out by hand rather than scooped.

No. The work is entirely outside, so most customers are out when it happens. Your Pro needs access to the perimeter of the house and, ideally, an outside tap for flushing downspouts. You get a completion notification with photos, and your card is only charged once the work is finished.

Yes, just less often. Guards stop leaves but not fir needles, seed pods or roof grit, which sift through the mesh and build up underneath, and debris sitting on top of a guard can dam water straight over the edge. Guarded gutters typically need clearing every two to three years, plus a check that the guards themselves are not blocked. Skoq pros price removing and refitting guards as an add-on.

Every Pro is identity-verified and background-checked before taking work, carries their own liability insurance, must hold a 95%+ order satisfaction rate, and has their qScore recalculated after every completed job. Pros who fall below the bar stop receiving orders. Ladder work on a two- or three-storey roofline is exactly the job you do not want an uninsured stranger doing.
