Local gutter cleaning You Can Trust
Clogged gutters are one of those home maintenance tasks that's easy to forget about — until it causes a $10,000 problem. When gutters fill with leaves, sticks, and shingle grit, water has nowhere to go. It overflows, soaks into your fascia boards, runs down your foundation, and eventually causes basement leaks, foundation cracks, and rot. In Marion's wet Ohio springs and falls, clean gutters aren't optional — they're essential.
At Priceless Powerwashing LLC, we don't just scoop leaves. We do a complete gutter cleaning service: clear the troughs, flush the downspouts, check for sagging or damage, and even brighten the outside of the gutters to remove those ugly black 'tiger stripes' that develop over time. The result is gutters that work like they're supposed to and look good doing it.
We recommend having your gutters cleaned at least once a year — twice if you have mature trees near your home (which most of Marion does). Spring and fall are the best times. We're locally owned and operated, insured, and we treat your home with the same care we'd give our own.
Serving Marion & All Surrounding Areas — from the streets of Marion out to Pleasant Township, Waldo, Caledonia, Prospect, and beyond. Locally owned and operated. A+ BBB rated. Free estimates.
How Our Gutter Cleaning Service Works
Inspection & Quote
We get up on a ladder (or use our inspection camera) to see exactly what's in your gutters — leaves, granules, sticks, or even a bird's nest. We give you a written quote based on the linear footage and condition.
Clear the Troughs
We hand-scoop the big debris (leaves, sticks, nests) into buckets — not onto your landscaping or down your downspouts. We work section by section so nothing gets missed.
Flush the Downspouts
This is the step most DIYers skip. We run water through each downspout to make sure it's flowing freely. If it's clogged, we clear it from the top or bottom until water runs clean. A clear trough is useless if the downspout is blocked.
Check for Issues
While we're up there, we check for loose hangers, sagging sections, separated joints, and any signs of rust or damage. We'll report anything we find — we don't fix it without your OK, but we want you to know.
Optional Gutter Brightening
Those black streaks on the outside of white gutters (called 'tiger stripes') are a mix of algae, oxidation, and runoff. We can brighten the gutters with a soft wash that removes the streaks without damaging the finish or your landscaping.
Clean Up
We bag all the debris, rake up anything that fell on the lawn, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. You shouldn't have to clean up after the cleaners.
What We Clean
- Standard aluminum gutters (the most common in Marion homes)
- Seamless gutters
- Vinyl gutters (we use gentle methods — vinyl can crack)
- Half-round gutters on older homes
- Downspouts and underground drains (we flush what we can reach)
- Gutter guards — we can clean around most types, or tell you if yours need replacing
- Exterior gutter faces (the brightening step)
- Fascia and soffit areas around the gutters
- Second-story gutters (we have the right ladders and safety equipment)
Why It Matters
Prevents Water Damage
Overflowing gutters are the #1 cause of basement flooding, foundation cracks, and rotting fascia boards in Ohio homes. A $200 gutter cleaning can prevent a $10,000+ repair bill. It's the highest-ROI maintenance you can do.
Brightens Exterior
Gutter brightening removes those ugly black streaks that make your home look dirty even when the siding is clean. It's a small detail that makes a big visual difference.
Protects Your Roof
Clogged gutters cause water to back up under your shingles, leading to ice dams in winter and roof rot year-round. Clean gutters extend the life of your roof — and a new roof in Marion runs $8,000–$15,000+.
Cheaper Than Repairs
Annual gutter cleaning costs a fraction of what you'd pay to fix water damage, replace rotted fascia, or repair a cracked foundation. It's preventative maintenance that pays for itself many times over.
Gutter Cleaning starting at $125
Most single-story Marion homes run $125–$200 for a full gutter cleaning. Two-story homes and homes with heavy tree debris are $200–$350. Gutter brightening is an add-on. We bundle discounts when combined with house washing — ask about our Complete Home Package.
All pricing is subject to change based on property size, condition, and location. We use GPS mapping and Google Earth to measure your cleaning area for an accurate, fair quote.
Why Trust Us With Your gutter cleaning
We're not just another pressure washing company. Here's what makes us different for this specific service.
We Flush Downspouts Too
Most DIYers and cheap services just scoop the troughs. We flush every downspout with water to make sure it's flowing freely. A clean gutter is useless if the downspout is clogged.
Free Gutter Inspection
While we're up there, we check for loose hangers, sagging sections, separated joints, and rust. We'll report anything we find — you get a full gutter health check with every cleaning.

Bundle & Save Big
Gutter cleaning pairs perfectly with a house wash. Bundle both and save — plus your gutters look better when the siding below them is clean too.
Safety First, Always
We use proper ladder safety, stabilizer stands, and the right equipment for two-story homes. Gutter cleaning is one of the most dangerous DIY tasks — let us handle it.
Common Gutter Cleaning Questions
How often should I clean my gutters?
At least once a year — twice if you have mature trees near your home (most Marion homes do). Spring and fall are ideal. Clogged gutters are the #1 cause of basement flooding and foundation cracks in Ohio homes.
Can you clean gutters on a two-story house?
Absolutely. We have the right ladders, stabilizer stands, and safety equipment for two-story and even three-story homes. We follow strict ladder safety protocols on every job.
Do you install gutter guards?
We can clean around most existing gutter guards. If you're considering installing guards, we can advise on which types work best for your situation — some are great, others cause more problems than they solve.
What are the black streaks on my gutters?
Those are called 'tiger stripes' — a mix of algae, oxidation, and runoff that bonds to the gutter surface. We can remove them with our gutter brightening service, a soft wash process that restores the original finish without damage.
