What are Oaks' gutter cleaning prices?
These are the prices on Oaks' own price list, updated October 2026. Gutter cleaning is priced by the house or by the metre.
| Job | Price |
|---|---|
| Gutter cleaning, single storey | from R950 |
| Gutter cleaning, double storey | from R1,600 |
| Gutter cleaning, per metre | from R35 |
| Downpipe flush, each | R150 |
A price marked 'from' is where that kind of job starts. The price list also gives 15% off bi-annual cleaning. Oaks confirms the final fixed price on a free quote.
How is the price worked out?
When gutters are priced by length, the price is the metres of gutter multiplied by the list rate, plus any downpipes flushed. The example below uses made-up sizes to show the maths. It is an example, not a quote. Oaks confirms the measurements when it quotes.
Example: a house with 40 m of gutter and 4 downpipes
Because the gutter rate is a 'from' price, the total is a starting price. The list also gives per-house prices, so ask which way suits your house.
| What | List price | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 40 m of gutter | from R35 per m | R1,400 |
| 4 downpipes flushed | R150 each | R600 |
| Example total (a starting price) | R2,000 | |
What makes gutter cleaning cost more or less?
These are the things that change what any gutter cleaner quotes. Oaks confirms how they affect your job in its quote.
- Storeys. A double-storey house costs more to reach, which is why the list has two house prices.
- Length. A long run of gutter takes longer than a short one.
- How blocked they are. Gutters packed with wet leaves and sludge take longer than gutters with a light layer of grit.
- Trees. Houses under mature trees, such as jacarandas and planes, collect leaves and flowers faster.
- Downpipes. Each one that is blocked needs flushing, at R150 each.
- How often you clean. The price list gives 15% off bi-annual cleaning.
- Extra problems. A gutter that is rusted through or has come away from the roof needs repair or replacing, which is not part of cleaning. Oaks gives a new quote for extra work before doing it.
