Out of sight, out of mind
Gutters only get noticed when they overflow.
Gutters fill quietly. Seeds and flowers in spring, then leaves all fall, packed down by rain until the water has nowhere to go. You find out in the middle of a storm, when it is sheeting over the edge and soaking the ground right next to the foundation.
The fix is not a heroic once-a-year cleanout. It is clearing them on a schedule, before they clog, and making sure the downspouts actually drain. That is how we do it.
What's included
What every visit includes
Whether it is a standalone package or part of the Lifesaver plan, the work is the same.
-
Two visits a year
A summer visit clears out what spring leaves behind, and a winter visit clears the fall leaves after they have come down. You are on the schedule, so you do not have to remember to call.
-
Gutters cleared end to end
Every run of gutter on the house is cleared of leaves, seeds, twigs, and built-up grit, so water can move freely to the downspouts.
-
Flushed and inspected
A clean gutter does not help if the downspout is blocked. We flush the gutters and downspouts so water actually leaves the roof, and check the system while we are up there.
-
Debris bagged and hauled away
Everything we pull out of the gutters is bagged up and leaves with us. Nothing is left in piles on the lawn, the beds, or the driveway.
The same trees that fill the gutters cover the lawn every fall. Clear the ground too with fall leaf cleanup, or keep the whole property in shape with landscape maintenance
The local picture
Why gutters work harder here
Northern Virginia's tree cover, clay soil, and winters all ask more of a gutter:
-
Big trees fill gutters fast.
The oaks, maples, and poplars that shade Arlington and Falls Church drop seeds and flowers in spring and a heavy load of leaves in fall. Most homes here need their gutters cleared more than once a year.
-
Overflow lands at the foundation.
When a gutter clogs, roof water spills over right beside the house. On our slow-draining clay soil it has nowhere to go, which is how damp basements and washed-out beds start.
-
Winter freezes make clogs worse.
Leaves left in gutters going into winter hold water that freezes, adding weight to the gutters and keeping them from draining. The winter visit clears them after the leaves are down.
-
It is easy to forget until it rains.
Nobody thinks about gutters until water is pouring over the edge in a storm. A standing summer and winter schedule takes it off your list for good.
Clear them twice a year, flush the downspouts, and the rain goes where it should.
Standalone or bundled

Five-star reviews from Northern Virginia homeowners
Fourteen years of consistent, communicative property care, and one yard at a time, it’s earned the kind of trust that shows up in the reviews.
David and his team are the best in the business in Arlington. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for landscaping or lawn care services and wants a company that cares about delivering top notch results. Their work speaks for itself.
I've had a great experience using this lawn service for regular grass maintenance in Falls Church. They're reliable, professional, and consistently do a clean, thorough job. My lawn always looks neat and well-maintained after each visit. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone in the Falls Church area looking for dependable lawn care.

Common questions
Gutter cleaning in Arlington, VA: answered
How much does gutter cleaning cost in Arlington, VA?
Gutter cleaning starts at $167 a visit, with a summer visit and a winter visit each year. The exact price depends on the length of the gutters, the number of stories, and the trees around the house. You are charged after each visit. Gutter cleaning is also included in the Lifesaver plan (from $579/month) for lots up to 5,500 sq ft.
How often do you clean gutters?
Twice a year: a summer visit and a winter visit. Gutter cleaning is a recurring package, so both visits are scheduled for you each year.
Why summer and winter instead of spring and fall?
In tree-heavy neighborhoods like ours, the leaves are not finished falling until late in the year. A winter visit catches them after they are down, and a summer visit clears what spring and early summer leave behind.
Do you clean out the downspouts too?
Yes. We flush the gutters and downspouts so water drains away from the house instead of backing up into a clean gutter. We use your outside water if it is available, and flushing needs above-freezing weather, so on a freezing winter day we clear the gutters and flush them only once conditions allow.
What happens to the debris?
We bag it up and haul it away. Nothing is left on the lawn, in the beds, or on the driveway.
How tall a house do you service?
Typically homes up to two stories. If your home is taller, call us and we will tell you honestly whether we can help.
Can I book a single cleaning?
Yes. Gutter cleaning is set up as a summer and a winter visit that continues from season to season, so if you only want one cleaning, just call us to cancel after the visit. Keeping both visits is what keeps gutters from clogging in the first place.
Is there a contract?
There are no long-term contracts. If something isn't right, tell us within 24 hours of the visit and we'll come back and make it right.
What areas do you serve for gutter cleaning?
Arlington is the primary service area. We also serve nearby Northern Virginia communities including Falls Church, McLean, Tysons, Vienna, Dunn Loring, Idylwood, Pimmit Hills, Seven Corners, Lake Barcroft, and Bailey's Crossroads.
