The best gutter cleaning in Johnston.
Most Johnston homes need gutter cleaning twice a year — late spring after seed-pod drop and late fall after the leaves come down. JBL Exterior Pros hand-clears every run, flushes every downspout, and photo-documents the work before leaving. From Beaver Creek area, Northbrook, Greendale to the rest of Johnston, JBL covers every ZIP in the city — 50131, Polk County.
— Why Johnston homes need this
Gutter Cleaning, the Johnston way.
The homes
Johnston runs 1980s–2010s subdivisions for the most part — executive-scale homes with brick fronts, vinyl side and rear, attached three-car garages. The Beaver Creek and Saylorville-adjacent properties trend larger and more wooded.
Some newer lakefront/lake-near homes have wraparound decks and outdoor kitchens that need pressure-wash + soft-wash combinations. Asphalt shingle roofs are universal; few tile, few cedar shake.
In the gutters here
Johnston's executive-scale homes carry long gutter runs, and the trees decide how fast they fill. On the standard 1980s-2010s subdivision lots in Greendale and Northbrook the load is moderate, but the larger wooded properties out by Beaver Creek and the Saylorville-adjacent edge drop heavy oak, maple, and walnut debris — leaves in fall, seed and samaras in spring — that packs the troughs and clogs downspouts.
Left full, gutters overflow against fascia and soffit, and in an Iowa winter that standing water backs up into ice dams. Most Johnston homes do best cleaned twice a year, fall and spring; the heavily canopied creek-adjacent lots often need a third pass to stay ahead of the drop.

What central Iowa homeowners are saying.
Real reviews from the families and properties we’ve cared for across central Iowa.
“Super thorough, prompt, professional — and fantastic work. Our house sparkled when they were finished. I've hired window washers before and was always bummed by streaks the next day. Not so with JBL — everything looked perfect, even after it rained.”
“They are a fantastic crew. Came and cleaned all the windows in a professional manner and with very little interruption. I highly recommend them — we couldn't be more pleased!”
“Very dependable folks who do great work — I've got their number filed. Window cleaning, power-spray decks, sidewalks, driveways. These kids do it all at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend.”
“We used JBL Exterior Pros for a complete exterior soft washing of our home and are extremely happy with the results. The work was completed exactly as promised and on schedule. A team of four arrived promptly, were professional and courteous, and did an exceptional job with minimal disruption.”
“Tatum was great to work with, and gave our windows a much needed cleaning after winter.”
“JBL Exterior Pros were awesome to work with. Very professional. On time and did a great job. Highly recommend them.”

Gutter cleaning questions, answered.
The things Johnston homeowners ask us most, before the first visit. Don’t see yours? Just ask.
Yes — JBL Exterior Pros covers every Johnston neighborhood and ZIP code (50131, Polk County), from Beaver Creek area, Northbrook, Greendale to Saylorville-adjacent. We're on Johnston streets regularly — only 10 miles from downtown Des Moines.
Twice a year for most central Iowa homes — late spring (after seed-pods) and late fall (after leaf drop). Heavily-treed properties may need a third in mid-summer.
We document and report — loose hangers, sagging runs, fascia rot. Minor fixes we can usually handle on the spot; bigger repairs we'll recommend a specialist and won't add filler work.
No. Even the best guards collect fine debris on top and let some material through. Most homes with guards still need annual cleaning — just lighter and faster.
Gutter cleaning in Johnston is priced by the size of your home and the scope of the job — every Johnston property is a little different. Every quote is free and walked in person within one business day, so the price reflects the actual home, not a flat rate.
Ice dams form when clogged gutters back water up under shingles, where it freezes and expands. The best prevention is fall cleaning before first freeze (typically late October–early November in central Iowa). We don't service active ice dams in winter — that's a specialized job.
Yes. While we're on the ladder cleaning gutters, we look for fascia rot, soffit damage, loose hangers, and pitch problems. We document anything we find in the photos and report it to you on the walk-through.
Honest answer: gutter cleaning is one of the more dangerous home tasks (ladder falls are the leading cause of home injury). It's also one of the easiest to do incompletely — missing a downspout clog doesn't show until the next big rain, when water spills over the gutter and damages the fascia. We do it safely and confirm the work — that's the value.
Yes, smaller commercial properties (storefronts, small offices, apartment buildings under three stories). For larger commercial gutter contracts we partner with crews equipped for that scale — we'll refer you if your property is beyond what we handle.
