San Diego doesn't get a lot of rain — but when it does rain, it really comes down. And if your gutters are full of leaves, dirt, and debris from months of dry weather, that water has nowhere to go except over the edge, down your walls, and into your foundation.
Squeegex provides professional gutter cleaning for homes and businesses throughout San Diego County. We clear out all debris, flush the downspouts, and check for proper drainage so your gutters are ready before the next rain hits.
When Should San Diego Homeowners Clean Their Gutters?
Most San Diego homes should have gutters cleaned twice a year — once in late fall before the rainy season (October/November) and once in spring after tree pollen and blooms have settled (April/May). Homes near eucalyptus trees, palms, or large oaks may need cleaning three to four times per year because those trees drop debris year-round.
What Happens When You Skip Gutter Cleaning
Water overflows and saturates soil around your foundation, leading to cracks and costly structural repairs
Standing water in gutters becomes a breeding ground for mosquitoes
Wet debris attracts rodents, birds, and insects looking for nesting material
Heavy debris causes gutters to pull away from the fascia board, requiring expensive repairs
Water backing up under roof shingles causes rot and interior water damage
What's Included in Every Gutter Cleaning
Remove all debris from gutters by hand and with blowers
Flush downspouts to confirm proper drainage
Check for sagging sections, separated joints, or damage
Clean up all debris from the ground around your home

Bundle Gutter Cleaning With Window Cleaning and Save
Most homeowners book gutter cleaning and window cleaning together because we're already on-site with ladders. Bundling both services saves you a separate trip charge and gets everything done in one visit. Ask about our bundle pricing when you call.

Also Consider: Pressure Washing and Awning Cleaning
While we're at your property for gutters, many homeowners also add pressure washing for driveways and patios, or awning cleaning to round out a full exterior refresh in one visit.
