Southern California is famous for its sunshine, but every homeowner knows the rains arrive quickly each winter. When those first storms hit, clogged gutters can overflow, damage siding, flood foundations, and invite pests. Routine gutter cleaning is one of the smallest investments a homeowner can make to protect their largest asset—even in a region that averages just 15 inches of rain a year.
• Extends roof life by preventing standing water at eaves
• Preserves stucco and paint from unsightly streaks
• Protects slab foundations from saturated soil and cracking
• Eliminates mosquito and rodent breeding zones
• Reduces emergency roof repair calls during heavy downpours
Traditional gutter maintenance requires multiple site visits, handwritten quotes, and phone-tag scheduling. CountBricks replaces that friction with AI-driven workflows designed for Los Angeles’ fast-paced residential market.
Using your smartphone, walk the perimeter of your property and describe gutter lengths, stories, and downspouts. CountBricks’ real-time voice engine translates your narration into precise linear-foot measurements, matches them with current Los Angeles labor rates, and produces a detailed estimate before you finish your lap around the house.
• Regional labor costs pulled daily from verified Los Angeles trade databases
• Material pricing synced hourly with leading suppliers, reflecting fluctuations in aluminum, copper, and hanger hardware
• Automatic markup suggestions ensure healthy margins without overbidding

If gutter cleaning is part of a larger remodel—new fascia boards, roof replacement, or solar panel prep—upload digital plans to CountBricks. The platform automatically identifies gutter runs, downspout locations, and tie-ins with rain barrels, then folds those quantities into a master project estimate. No manual scaling or missed sections, even on complex Spanish-tile roofs.
A single-story 1,800 sq ft ranch with 150 linear feet of K-style aluminum gutters typically costs between $225 and $275 for a standard clean-out. Add another $1 to $2 per foot for two-story access with 40-foot ladders and OSHA fall protection. CountBricks auto-calculates these premiums so you can present transparent, trustworthy pricing every time.
• Downspout flush and flow test
• Minor sealant touch-ups at miters and end caps
• Basic roof debris blow-off
• Installation of snap-in gutter guards to reduce future cleanings
CountBricks checklists ensure every tech follows Cal/OSHA ladder protocols, uses PPE, and photographs each elevation before and after work. Those images auto-attach to the final invoice, providing proof of performance and reducing payment disputes.
• Schedule cleanings for early autumn, before Santa Ana winds blow leaves into valleys
• Offer bi-annual service plans and let CountBricks auto-remind customers when it is time
