What customers say
Came out and quoted my gutters the same day I requested it! Came out and cleaned my gutters and did some repair while they were up there for a reasonable price! Going to use them for my windows in the spring. Great service
Amazing! Sent in a request form on their website in the morning, heard back that afternoon, and booked for the next day. Very fast, reliable, and efficient.
They are efficient, hardworking, and reliable. I’ll definitely call them again for other services. Highly recommended!

Before and after
The same gutter, before and after
Photographed from the same spot before we started and again once we had finished.
Duncan is a small city in a big valley. The municipal boundary covers only a couple of square kilometres, but the houses people describe as being “in Duncan” spread out into North Cowichan and the regional district in every direction. That spread matters for gutters, because a downtown lot and a lot off Glenora Road shed rain in completely different ways.
We clean gutters and downspouts across all of it, from the older blocks around the train station to the newer subdivisions on the slopes at the edge of town.
In town, the water goes underground
On most of the older streets near downtown and around University Village, downspouts run straight into a pipe at the base of the wall. That pipe ties into a perimeter drain or a storm connection, and you never see where the water ends up. It is tidy until the gutter above sends down a slug of fir needles and grit. The elbow at ground level catches it first, and once that fills, every heavy rain backs up the downspout and spills over the gutter lip at the corner.
So in town, a clean trough is only half the visit. We run water down each outlet and watch the joint at grade. If the underground line will not take it, you hear that from us the day we find it.
Out of town, it goes into a ditch or a rock pit
Head out to Glenora, Gibbins Road, Somenos or the acreages past Bell McKinnon and the picture changes. Many of those houses have no storm main at all. Downspouts empty onto splash pads, into a buried rock pit, or along a swale to the roadside ditch. A rock pit that has been taking needle sludge for fifteen years stops draining, and the water starts to pool against the foundation.
We cannot dig out a rock pit, but we can stop sending it debris. Clearing the gutters properly, and pointing out an outlet that is soaking the ground beside the house, is the cheapest part of keeping that system working.

What lands in a Duncan gutter
The valley floor grows big trees quickly. Douglas fir and western red cedar shed fine needles and scale all year, heaviest after wind. Bigleaf maple drops leaves the size of a dinner plate in late October, followed by the winged seeds that lodge sideways in downspout openings. Around Quamichan Lake and the older parts of town, lots of houses sit under a mix of all three.
Fir needles do the most damage. They knit into a wet mat that holds water against the fascia board all winter, and fascia that stays wet long enough goes soft at the nail line. Once the hangers lose their grip, the gutter sags and the low spot holds a standing puddle every time it rains.
Why choose us
Why choose us for gutter cleaning in duncan
Based in the valley
Duncan is the centre of our Cowichan service area. Quamichan, Glenora and Bell McKinnon are all short drives, not a trip across the Malahat.
We follow the water to the ground
A clean trough means little if the downspout below it is packed. Every outlet gets flushed and watched before we pack up.
Ten-plus years on island roofs
Our experience comes from more than a decade of Vancouver Island rooflines, and Douglas fir behaves the same on this side of the hill.
Insured, WCB-registered, guaranteed
Ladder work carries real risk. We carry insurance and WCB coverage, and the work is backed by our guarantee.
Houses we see most around Duncan
Character homes near the downtown core tend to have short runs, tight side yards and old downspout connections. Subdivisions on the slopes around town bring two-storey walls, longer runs and the occasional third-storey gable. Newer builds near Bell McKinnon and the hospital site are often townhouses or strata, where one blocked shared downspout floods the unit next door. We price each one from what we see, never from a postcode.
The work
On the job
If your gutters overflow at one corner every storm, or you have not looked up there since you moved in, send us the address. The quote is free, and we will tell you what the roof edge needs.

Duncan gutter cleaning FAQ
How often should gutters be cleaned in Duncan?
Once a year after the leaves are down suits an open lot in town. If a Douglas fir or cedar stands within reach of the roof, plan on twice: once in late fall and again in spring to clear the needles and cones the winter storms brought down. We will tell you honestly which group your house is in after we have seen it.
Do you cover the areas outside the City of Duncan itself?
Yes. Most of what people call Duncan is actually North Cowichan or the regional district, and we work all of it: Quamichan Lake, Bell McKinnon, Somenos, Eagle Heights, Gibbins Road, Glenora and out toward Cowichan Station. A rural address with a long driveway is fine; tell us about access when you ask for a quote.
My downspout disappears into the ground. Can you tell if it is blocked?
We can tell whether the downspout itself runs clear, and we flush water into the underground connection to see whether it takes it or backs up. If it backs up, the blockage is below grade, in the perimeter drain or the line to the street or rock pit. That is drainage work rather than gutter work, and we will say so instead of guessing.
Can you clean gutters on a two-storey house with a steep driveway?
Usually, yes. We look at ladder footing, rooflines and what sits under the eaves before anything goes up. Where the ground is too steep or soft for a ladder to stand safely, we will explain what that means for the job before we quote it.
Do you take the debris away?
Yes. Needles, leaves and sludge are bagged as we go and leave with us. Nothing gets dumped in your garden beds or left in a pile by the driveway, and we rinse off what splashes onto siding or paths.
