I'm a first-time homeowner and just found out that the company quoted me $625 for spot cleaning my gutters because I didn't mention that we have gutter guards. Originally, they quoted $295 for the cleaning, so I'm a bit confused about the increase. We live in a one-story ranch home that's around 1,800 square feet, and this cost seems really high to me. Is this a reasonable price for this service?

Honestly, $625 seems steep for a one-story home, especially with gutter guards. My house is similar in size and I was quoted about $550 without any guards just a few weeks ago. But if you want to avoid hefty charges, you might consider doing it yourself. I used a pressure washer attachment that lets you clean from the ground, and it worked really well. It only took me about 30-45 minutes to finish! Also, you could try finding a handyman who charges by the hour for a more reasonable rate.
What kind of pressure washer attachment did you use? I'm looking into getting one myself!
