Towslee's Got Pressure

Gutter Cleaning & Gutter Brightening in Duluth, MN

Pine needles, maple seeds and shingle grit pack Northern Minnesota gutters twice a year, and clogged gutters here mean ice dams in January and washed-out foundations in April. We clean gutters by hand across Duluth, Hermantown, Cloquet, Carlton and Esko, flush every downspout, and can restore the outside of the gutters too, the black "tiger stripes" a normal house wash doesn't touch.

Cleaned gutter and flushed downspout on a home in Duluth, Minnesota

Gutter cleanout (inside)

Hand removal of all debris, bagged and hauled, not blown onto your lawn. Every downspout flushed and confirmed flowing. We’ll tell you if we find loose hangers, pulled-away sections, or spots where the pitch is wrong.

Gutter brightening (outside)

Tiger striping is oxidized aluminum plus electrostatically bonded grime. It doesn’t rinse off with a house wash. Brightening uses a dedicated cleaner and hand agitation to bring the gutter face back to white. Usually done as an add-on to a house wash.

When to do it

Late spring, after seed drop, and late fall, after leaf drop and before freeze. Homes under pines often need a mid-summer visit as well.

What affects the price

Linear feet of gutter, number of stories, roof pitch and access, and whether brightening is added.

Gutter Cleaning questions

Do you repair gutters or install gutter guards?
We focus on cleaning and brightening. If we find loose hangers, separated seams, or drainage problems during the service, we document them and let you know so you can address them with a gutter contractor.
How do you handle second-story gutters?
We work from ladders with standoffs rather than walking on the roof. This protects the shingles and keeps the work safe on steep or older roofs.
Can gutter cleaning be combined with a house wash?
Yes. It is the most common combination we perform, and completing both in one visit is more economical than scheduling them separately.
What if my downspouts drain underground?
We flush the downspouts from the top and confirm whether water is flowing. If a buried drain line is blocked, we will let you know; clearing underground lines requires a plumber or drain specialist.
How often should gutters be cleaned in this area?
Twice a year is typical: late spring after seed drop and late fall after the leaves are down. Homes under pine trees often benefit from a mid-summer cleaning as well.
