For most standard homes in the UK, professional gutter cleaning typically costs in the region of £60–£120 per visit , with smaller, simple properties sometimes coming in around £45–£70 and larger or taller houses often ranging from about £100 up to £250 or more when access is awkward or the gutters are heavily blocked. These prices are usually for a straightforward clean only and do not include repairs or major parts replacement.

Typical UK price ranges

  • Small terrace or flat: roughly £45–£70 for an easy-access, low-level clean.
  • Average 2-storey semi / 3-bed house: commonly £60–£120 depending on length of guttering and condition.
  • Larger detached or tall/complex homes: often £100–£250+ , especially with three storeys, conservatories or awkward roof lines.
  • National “ballpark” averages: many guides quote about £80–£150 per visit across the UK when you smooth out regional differences.

What affects the price?

  • Size and length of gutters
    • Longer runs and more sides of the property mean more time and higher cost, sometimes priced per metre (for example, 20m often lands around the low-to-mid hundreds including VAT).
  • Height and access
    • 3-storey houses, those needing scaffold or cherry pickers, and properties over conservatories can see prices jump significantly; adding scaffold can more than double the labour cost in some guides.
  • Condition of gutters
    • Light debris and a routine clean stay near the lower end of ranges, while heavy moss, plants, or long-neglected gutters push quotes up towards the higher bands.
  • Extras and add-ons
    • Clearing blocked downpipes, fitting filters or guards, or doing minor repairs are often charged on top, with individual downpipe clearances and accessories adding small but noticeable extras to the bill.

Regional differences in the UK

  • London and South East: often at the top end of ranges, for example around £80–£150 or more for standard houses.
  • Other regions (e.g. Wales, parts of the North): can be closer to £50–£100 for similar work on typical properties.

Practical tips before you book

  • Get 2–3 fixed quotes that clearly state whether VAT, waste disposal, and any downpipe work are included.
  • Ask how they’ll access higher areas (ladder vs. gutter-vac vs. scaffold) and whether that’s all covered in the price.
  • For routine maintenance, many homeowners aim for a clean once a year (more often in very leafy areas), which usually keeps costs near the lower end because the job stays simple.
