Why Book Roof and Gutter Cleaning Together
Your roof and gutters work as one system. Rain runs down the shingles, into the gutters and out through the downspouts. When moss and fir needles build up on the roof, they don’t stay put. Every storm washes some of it down into the gutters, where it packs in with leaves and turns into a soggy plug.
That’s why cleaning only one of them tends to leave you with a problem. Clean the gutters but leave a mossy roof, and they start filling up again with the next big rain. Treat the roof but skip the gutters, and the moss we brush off ends up sitting in them. When we do both, roof first and gutters second, everything that comes off the roof gets cleaned out before we pack up.
It’s easier on you, too. You get one quote and one appointment instead of trying to line up two.

How Often Should You Clean Your Roof and Gutters?
It mostly comes down to how many trees are around your house. Here’s a good rule of thumb for homes in Thurston County.
Few or no trees nearby
Gutters: Once a year, in the fall.
Roof: Check for moss each year and have it treated when you see green starting to show.
A few trees close to the house
Gutters: Twice a year, in late fall after the leaves drop and again in spring.
Roof: Plan on a moss treatment every few years, since shade helps it come back.
Under tall firs or cedars
Gutters: 2 or 3 times a year, because needles come down in every season.
Roof: Shady roofs grow moss the fastest, so keep a close eye on it once the guarantee period is up.
After a roof treatment, the dead moss keeps coming off for 3 to 6 months. It’s a good idea to book one more gutter cleaning once the roof has cleared up, so the last of it doesn’t sit in your gutters all winter.
What Clogged Gutters Can Do to Your Home
Gutters have one job: carry rainwater off the roof and away from the house. When they’re packed full, the water spills over the sides instead. Olympia gets around 50 inches of rain a year, so that adds up fast.
The overflow soaks fascia boards and siding, which leads to dry rot and mold. It pools along the foundation, where it can cause leaks and cracks over time. It also pounds the flower beds and landscaping below. If your gutters spill over in a heavy rain, or you can see plants growing out of them, it’s time to get them cleaned.
The Best Time to Book in Olympia
Late fall is when most homeowners around here think about their gutters, and for good reason. Once most of the leaves have dropped, usually by November, it’s a great time to clear everything out before the worst of the winter storms.
Spring is the other good window. It lets you clean up after a winter of wind and rain and get ahead of new moss before it takes hold. The roof treatment needs a few dry days after it goes on, so we’ll work with you on timing. If your gutters are overflowing right now, there’s no need to wait.

What Our Customers Say
Zach did a great job cleaning my roof and chain link fence. My house is surrounded by tall trees so the backside of my roof and my backyard fence get a lot of moss and mildew buildup… I’m happy that the moss on my roof is dead and falling away. Zach was also respectful of the plants around my home with regard to the water runoff. I will definitely hire him again.
Ang S.
Zach was very professional and easy to work with. I had other scheduling issues and he worked with me. The workers were very careful setting up around my house, flower beds, and garden area.

Roof and Gutter Cleaning FAQs
How much does roof and gutter cleaning cost in Olympia, WA?
It depends on the size and pitch of your roof, how many stories the house has, how much moss is up there and how full the gutters are. A single-story ranch with a few trees will cost less than a steep two-story home under tall firs. For an exact price, request a quote or call 360-915-3282.
Should the roof or the gutters be cleaned first?
The roof comes first. We brush off the big clumps of moss and treat the roof, then clean out the gutters, so whatever came down from the roof gets cleared out before we leave. Doing it the other way around just fills the clean gutters back up.
Do you pressure wash the roof?
No. We soft wash roofs with a treatment that kills moss, algae and lichen, and we don’t put pressure or water flow on the shingles. Pressure washing can take years off a roof’s life and even cause leaks.
Will dead moss end up in my gutters again after the roof is treated?
Some of it will. The treated moss dies and turns white, and over the next 3 to 6 months the wind and rain wash it off the roof, so part of it lands in the gutters. Many homeowners book one more gutter cleaning once the roof has cleared up. After that, our 2-year guarantee means no new moss grows back on the roof for 2 years.
How often should I clean my gutters in Olympia?
At least once a year, usually in the fall. If you have trees close to the house, plan on twice a year, in late fall and again in spring. Homes under tall firs or cedars often need it 2 or 3 times a year, because needles come down in every season.
Can I book just the roof or just the gutters?
Yes. If you only need one, take a look at our pages for roof cleaning in Olympia and gutter cleaning in Olympia. For heavy moss, our roof moss removal service is the best fit.

Yes. Along with Olympia, we clean roofs and gutters in Lacey, Tumwater and other parts of Thurston County. Call 360-915-3282 if you’d like to check whether we cover your address.
Can you clean roofs and gutters in the winter?
Gutter cleaning is available year-round, so you don’t have to wait for summer if they’re overflowing now. Roof treatments need a stretch of dry weather after they go on, so we’ll plan that part around the forecast.
