Wilmington NC • Gutter Cleaning + Inspection
Clogged gutters cause roof leaks, fascia rot, and foundation damage. We clean Wilmington gutters by hand, flush downspouts, and inspect for issues before they cost you thousands.
Wilmington's combination of salt air off the Cape Fear River, hurricane history (Florence set rainfall records here in 2018; Fran's 12-foot surge in 1996 damaged three-quarters of New Hanover County homes), and 73-to-81% summer humidity is hard on every exterior surface. That's the backdrop for any honest conversation about gutter cleaning and inspection here.
From the antebellum brick of the Historic District to the planned communities of Landfall, Mayfaire, and Forest Hills, the constants are the same: humidity, salt, sun, and storms. Our job is to clean what's already in place and add years of life without replacement. Wilmington's housing mix is unusually wide. The Downtown Historic District (one of the largest in the US, with antebellum and Victorian homes) and the post-1980s subdivisions of Landfall and Mayfaire are very different conservation challenges.

Twice-a-year service prevents nearly all gutter-related home damage. Licensed and insured, coastal NC owned and operated. Bio-based products. Free, no-obligation quotes,we'll tell you straight whether our service is the right fit or not.
Gutter cleaning and inspection for Wilmington homes.
Twice a year is the baseline for Wilmington: once in late spring after pollen and seed-pod fall, once in late fall after leaves drop. Homes surrounded by pines may need more.
Hand-clean the gutters, flush every downspout to confirm flow, bag and remove the debris, inspect for sagging or separation, and give you a written summary of anything that needs attention.
Most homes fall in the $200 to $500 range, depending on linear footage, height, and how much debris is in there. Free quote first.
We do minor repairs (re-pitching, re-securing, replacing a section). Full gutter replacement we refer out to a trusted partner.
Most Wilmington homeowners benefit from a pre-season service or inspection in May or June, before peak storm activity. Post-storm work in September through November is also smart, especially after a named storm passes through the Cape Fear region. We schedule around the forecast.
