October–November
First rain finds every packed gutter.
The first real rain of the season is when pine needles, eucalyptus bark, and summer dust become a dam. Water goes over the fascia, into the wall, or down a downspout that’s already full. Sometimes it ends up in a drain line that wasn’t ready for it either.
What to do before the storm
If you can see moss on the roof or needles in the trough, clean the gutters before the first atmospheric river. Single-story from $225. Two-story from $325. Bundle with demossing and take $100 off.
When the downspout is the problem
A clean gutter with a blocked downspout can still flood the corner of the house. Internal drains and scuppers start at $275 for a basic flush. Packed lines are quoted on site.
If the house is already backing up
That’s a drain job, not a gutter job. Clogs are starting at $275 (range $225–$350). A main line is starting at $475 (range $425–$595). Call (831) 239-7023 and we’ll tell you which one from what you describe.
