Upper Arlington’s mature oaks and maples are part of why it is a Tree City, and they are also why gutters and underground drains fill up. Older homes in 43212 and 43221 sit under a dense canopy. Leaves, seed pods, and shingle grit collect in the troughs; roots find joints in older yard lines. Some houses have original or long-lived roofing—slate and copper details show up on older streets. That is the neighborhood, not a specialty we claim. The work is the same: keep water off the roof edge and away from the foundation.
A+ Gutters & Drains LLC serves Upper Arlington from Columbus. We clean and repair gutters, reslope sagging runs, replace worn 5-inch systems with 6-inch where it makes sense, and clear or replace drain lines. Call (614) 305-7246.
Gutter and drain services
Gutter cleaning
We clear leaves, seed pods, shingle grit, and debris from gutters and downspouts so water can leave the roof. Cleaning starts at $125 for single-story homes up to 2,000 square feet. Two-story homes start at $225. Larger homes, guarded gutters, unwalkable roofs, walk-out basements, and homes taller than two stories may cost more.
Gutter repair and reslope
Leaks, loose hangers, separated seams, and sagging runs are common. Repair starts at $125. If water sits in a clean gutter, the pitch is often the problem. Reslope starts at $125, depending on run length, height, and access. We do not reslope gutters still fastened with old spike-and-ferrule hardware; those systems are usually better replaced with hidden hangers.
Gutter replacement and guards
Most builder-grade homes have 5-inch gutters. We install 6-inch systems at $11–$18 per linear foot. Guards are not “never clean again,” but they do cut how often you need service. Micro-mesh-style guards we install run about $10–$13 per linear foot on a full install. We will tell you if a guard is a poor fit for a steep roof or a heavy valley.
Drain cleaning and clogged drains
Hair, soap, grease, and debris slow sinks, tubs, and floor drains. A clog can be a simple jetting or a full pipe rebuild, so we start with a camera look ($150) or jetting ($275 for the first line if that clears it). A rebuild is quoted after we see the line. Recurring clogs usually mean a deeper line problem, not just a fixture trap.
Hydro jetting and camera inspection
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clear grease, sludge, and roots from the pipe wall. Pricing is $275 for the first line and $125 for each additional line, with a camera inspection included. A standalone camera inspection is $150 when you only need a look inside the line.
Drain repair, replacement, and French drains
Cracked pipe, separated joints, and corrosion are repair or replace decisions. Drain line replacement starts at $25 per linear foot for a full drain line install over 100 linear feet. French drains, used to move groundwater away from a foundation or low yard, start at $95 per linear foot.

Why local service in Upper Arlington
Tree-lined streets and older housing stock mean seasonal gutter loads and aging downspout and storm ties. Homes around the older core and the later ranch and colonial streets all shed a lot of leaf litter in fall. We already run this part of Franklin County and do not treat Upper Arlington as an add-on market.

Signs you need service
Overflowing or dripping gutters
Water sheeting off the fascia, staining siding, or pooling at corners usually means a clog, a failed seam, or a gutter that has lost pitch.
Standing water in the gutter
If the gutter is clean and water still sits, the run is flat or hanging low. That is a reslope or replacement issue, not a cleaning issue.
Slow drains and recurring clogs
Water that lingers in a sink, tub, or floor drain, or the same clog coming back, points to buildup or a restriction farther down the line.
Odors or backups
Smells from a drain, or water coming back into a fixture, need attention the same day when possible.
Wet soil or a damp basement after rain
Gutters dumping at the foundation, a short downspout, or a failed underground drain can put water against the house. Tree roots in older clay or older plastic lines are common in older neighborhoods.
Older lots with large maples and oaks also see root pressure on buried downspout and storm lines. Camera work shows whether you have a clog or a broken pipe before anyone digs.

Frequently asked questions
How much does gutter cleaning cost? Gutter cleaning starts at $125 for single-story homes up to 2,000 square feet. Two-story homes start at $225. We can often price a typical house over the phone.
Do you repair gutters or only clean them? Both. Gutter repair and reslope each start at $125. If the system is old, nailed on, or undersized, we will say so and quote 6-inch replacement at $11–$18 per linear foot instead of stacking small repairs.
What do gutter guards cost? Guards we typically install are about $10–$13 per linear foot. They still need occasional service. We do not sell plastic clip-in guards.
How much is drain jetting? $275 for the first line and $125 for each additional line. A camera inspection is included with jetting.
What does a clogged drain or camera inspection cost on its own? A standalone camera inspection is $150. A clogged drain has no flat price: we start with a camera look ($150) or jetting ($275 for the first line), and a rebuild is quoted after we see the line.
Do you offer same-day service? Often, yes, for cleaning, clogs, and many repairs in Columbus and the nearby suburbs. Peak spring and fall gutter weeks book further out.
When should a drain be replaced instead of cleaned? If the pipe is cracked, collapsed, or keeps clogging after a proper cleaning, replacement is the longer-term fix. Line replacement starts at $25 per linear foot for a full drain line install over 100 linear feet.
Can you work on homes with slate roofs or copper gutters? We can clean and assess most residential gutter systems in Upper Arlington. Slate roofs and copper runs need extra care for access and for what we attach to. We do not market ourselves as a copper or slate specialty shop. If the job is outside what we can do safely, we will say so before we start.
