Gutter Cleaning in New Braunfels, TX
Gutters and downspouts cleared of oak, cedar, and pecan debris and flushed so they flow again. Seasonal maintenance that prevents overflow, fascia rot, and foundation pooling.
What Gutter Cleaning Covers
A gutter cleaning clears the leaves, catkins, cedar needles, pecan husks, and grit out of the gutter, then flushes the gutter and downspouts to confirm water actually runs through to the outlet — a gutter can look clean but still have a downspout packed solid at the elbow. While the gutters are open, they're checked for the things that cause bigger problems: failed seam seals, sagging runs holding water, loose hangers, and pitch issues, so a small fix can be flagged before it becomes overflow and fascia rot.
In New Braunfels, the realistic schedule for an open gutter under live oaks or cedar is twice a year — late spring after the oaks finish dropping catkins, and late fall — plus a check before storm season. Homes with heavy canopy clog faster. If the seasonal ladder routine gets old, that's the point where gutter guards usually pay off.
Pricing is by the size of the home and the debris load, quoted before the visit.
Why It Matters More Than It Seems
A clogged gutter is a foundation problem in disguise. When the gutter overflows, the water sheets down the wall and soaks the soil right at the foundation — the expansive clay that swells and shrinks and moves slabs in Central Texas. Keeping gutters clear keeps roof water in the system and away from the base of the house.
Standing water rots fascia and breeds mosquitoes. Debris that holds water against the fascia rots the wood the gutter hangs on, and standing water in a clogged gutter is a mosquito nursery. Clearing it solves both.

Gutter Cleaning FAQ
About twice a year for most homes — late spring after live oaks finish dropping catkins, and late fall — plus a quick check before storm season. Homes under heavy oak, cedar, or pecan canopy may need more. If the gutters clog faster than you want to clean them, gutter guards are usually the better long-term answer.
It's priced by the size of the home, the roofline, and how much debris has built up — a single-story home with light debris is a small job; a large or two-story home with heavy clogs is more. Downspout flushing and a leak/pitch inspection are part of the visit. The quote is given before the work.
They clog, then overflow in the next downpour. The spillover rots the fascia, pools water at the foundation (which drives soil movement in Central Texas clay), and standing water breeds mosquitoes. A clogged gutter does more harm than no gutter, because it concentrates the overflow at the corners.
Yes — with the gutters open and being flushed, they're checked for failed seam seals, sagging or water-holding runs, loose hangers, and pitch problems. Catching those during a cleaning lets a small repair happen before it turns into overflow and fascia damage.
