I did my own up North, with a leaf blower and the gutter cleaning attachment, all I had to do was remember to not do this after a rain shower. As long as the leaves, etc., are dry, this works really well. If the downspouts are clogged, check the length of the screws holding these together. Guys back up North used 2 inch (yes 2 inch) screws on all of the joints and straps, which provided a great place for debris to collect and block the downspout. I replaced with 3/8 inch screws and completely ended the clogs. As for your original question, I would guess some of the local handymen would do this.
