We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning in Hoover per building, priced from its footprint and height. Fall protection or a boom or scissor lift goes on every job, and you get a photo report when we finish.
Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Spring and fall are when most property managers book us, and we work across Alabama on the same per-building basis.
Quoted per building from footage, height and gutter type, in writing, before anyone is dispatched. Scheduled service costs less than a call-out.
We quote commercial gutter cleaning per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched.
What moves the quote on our jobs is height. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift and set it up under fall-protection rules, which adds time and equipment to the visit. Compacted debris on a system not cleaned in years takes longer to clear than a maintained run. A single clog at a downspout elbow clears quickly on a maintained run, but a clogged gutter packed with debris takes the crew much longer. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated, oversized or box gutters take more footage per hour, and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs need their own pass. A site with several buildings is quoted building by building so the invoice shows each one.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are not billed as extras. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly gutter maintenance is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the property and the footage is measured. A gutter that stays full after a storm will overflow onto the siding and the landscape below it, and that water damage costs more than the visit. Commercial buildings in surrounding areas are quoted the same way, building by building.
On a Hoover building, flat roofs with internal drains and stories above three are the two features that move the number most, because they bring in the lift, the drain pass and the compacted debris we find on the roof. For any Hoover property, we need the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. We use the commercial buildings we service as the reference for how a site like yours is handled, and the service area question is answered the same way for every building.
Our thorough cleaning covers the gutter cleaning service itself, and the thorough gutter cleaning sequence is the same on every job, so the quote reflects the work and nothing else. Gutter protection is outside this scope and is not part of the number. Clean gutters are what keep water off the fascia and away from the foundation, which is how you protect your home or business.
| Per building | |
|---|---|
| Standard, one to two stories | from $150 |
| Oversized box or industrial gutters | from $280 |
| Three stories and up, with a lift | from $375 |
Your lease decides, not state law. Here is how the three common cases usually read.
On a commercial lease, responsibility for gutter and downspout cleaning is set by the lease itself, not by the habitability rules that apply to apartments.
Triple net (NNN). The tenant usually carries building maintenance and exterior upkeep, in full or as a pro-rata share, and that normally includes gutters and downspouts.
Gross lease. The landlord usually keeps the roof system and exterior upkeep, gutters included, inside the base rent.
Lease silent. When the lease says nothing, the obligation generally falls to the landlord, because gutters are treated as part of the building's roof and structure.
Whoever the lease names, tell us and the invoice goes to that party, so the property manager is not stuck in the middle.
This is general information, not legal advice. Read the maintenance clause of your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it.
At least twice a year for a standard building. Restaurants, flat roofs and anything under trees, quarterly.
Semi-annual service, spring and late fall, suits most commercial buildings, and restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees go on quarterly. Across Alabama, the spring visit lands in mid to late April. The fall visit runs November to early December.
After the storm and hurricane season we see what the post-storm inspections turn up: debris packed into the outlets, separated seams and downspouts pulled from their brackets. Leaves and pollen load the gutters on a predictable schedule, which is why the spring and late fall visits are timed to them.
On flat roofs, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, and by then a leak has usually started, which is why we flag them at every visit.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laden debris that holds water against the fascia. A standard office building on twice a year is a different job, mostly leaves and grit. The gutter cleaning process is the same, but the interval is set by what the building collects.
For a commercial cleaning on a property like yours, we start with the cleaning services we already offer and set the interval from the first visit. Our cleaning solutions are fitted to what each building collects, not to a fixed calendar. Gutter cleaners who only visit once a year miss the buildup that starts in the second season, and gutter cleaning companies are not all alike on commercial work. The same interval logic applies to a home or business, and we set it on the first visit. Our crew can also set up the schedule so that a homeowner-style single visit is never needed for a commercial building, and the gutter guard on any roofline is only checked, not sold. The gutter system is inspected at each visit so the interval stays tied to what we find, and the final inspection is photographed for the file. To set the interval on your building, call (866) 435-6328, text a photo of the roofline, or book a date and we will confirm the schedule in writing.
| Property type | Baseline | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Standard office, retail, multifamily | Twice a year, spring and late fall | Seasonal debris before heavy rain and freeze |
| Restaurant and food service | Every two months | Grease and exhaust residue speed up clogs |
| Industrial and manufacturing | Quarterly to semi-annual | Airborne dust and soot |
| Heavy tree cover over the roof | Three to four times a year | Leaf and needle load |
| Flat roof with parapets and internal drains | Quarterly, monthly checks | Drains back up silently; membrane damage |
Tied off or working from a lift, never free-standing on a ladder against a parapet.
Federal OSHA requires fall protection for construction-type work at six feet and above (29 CFR 1926.501) and for general industry at four feet (29 CFR 1910.28). Commercial gutter lines sit well above both. Our crew works tied off or from an aerial lift, never free-standing on a ladder against a parapet. Above three stories the job is done from a boom or scissor lift, which is why height is the biggest single factor in a commercial quote. The lift is matched to the building: we bring whatever boom or scissor lift the roofline needs. Where a state runs its own OSHA plan with stricter triggers, the crew follows the stricter rule.
Gutters, downspouts, drains and scuppers, hauled debris, and a photo report per building. Nothing on this list is an extra.
Per building. Every gutter run cleared by hand or vacuum, not just the sections visible from the parking lot. Every downspout flushed until it runs clear; a blocked downspout cleared from above where reachable. Below-grade drain lines are cleared on request and quoted separately. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs cleared of debris and the strainer domes reseated. Debris bagged and removed from site, including from parking areas and walkways under the work. Downspout outlets and splash blocks checked.
Report. Before-and-after photos of each run and each drain, per building, with anything found (a pulled hanger, a separated seam, standing water that points to slope, a cracked scupper) noted and photographed, not repaired without authorization. Invoice per building with the linear footage shown, so a board or an owner can check it.
Not included. Gutter repair or replacement, guard installation, roof repair, pressure washing of the building. Where a problem is found, you get the photo and a plain description; what to do about it is your call.
The same crew on a fixed calendar, a lower per-visit rate, and a storm call-out when you need one.
A one-off cleaning is priced as a one-off: dispatch, setup, lift if needed. Put the property on a schedule and the plan is priced for that building, because the crew knows it, the footage is already measured and the dates are booked a season ahead. Semi-annual (spring and late fall) suits most standard buildings; quarterly suits restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and anything under heavy trees. Plans and their pricing are set building by building: call or email us to set one up.
A scheduled property also gets one contact for every building in the portfolio, across city lines where we cover the neighboring towns.
One contact for every building, a date in writing, and the crew checks in with your on-site person before a lift goes up.
We work the business districts and corridors of Hoover where we have serviced properties, and we handle a multi-building portfolio under one contact. A property manager gets a single point of contact for every building, and each building is quoted and invoiced on its own line.
A date is confirmed in writing before the crew arrives. To book a date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline. On arrival the crew checks in with the on-site contact, and the work is timed around tenant hours when that is asked. Lead time depends on the site and the season, so we give you the date we can actually hold rather than a promise.
We provide professional gutter cleaning services for residential and commercial properties, and residential gutter jobs get the same crew where the property is a home. We offer gutter cleaning on a single building or across a portfolio, and the work covers the blockage that a property accumulates between visits. Whether you manage a landscape of retail units or a single office, we take on the gutter cleaning needs of homeowners and businesses alike. Water damage from a clogged system is what we are trying to prevent, and our gutter cleaning and maintenance schedule is built around that.
If you also run residential properties, we also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners, and the same crew handles both.
We price per building, and the number depends on the footage, the height and the gutter type. Quotes for commercial and residential properties follow the same basis. Each building gets its own written quote, so you can see what each one costs before we book it.
Yes. A flat roof with internal drains needs its own drain pass and a pitched roof does not, so the roof type goes on the quote request along with the stories and footage.
For restaurants and flat roofs with internal drains, quarterly is the interval that keeps drain blockage in check. A clogged gutter on a restaurant holds grease, so that is the interval we set for those buildings.
Yes. Taller commercial buildings get the same treatment: we work from a boom or scissor lift set up under fall-protection rules, and the lift is matched to the building.
Yes. The gutter cleaning process is timed around tenant hours, and we follow the access rules you give us. We check in with the on-site contact when we arrive.
Both. Roof drains and scuppers get their own pass on a flat roof, and the strainer domes are reseated afterward. Debris packed into a drain makes it back up, and that can cause roof leaks, so this pass is part of our gutter maintenance on any flat roof, not an add-on.
Across Alabama, the storm season brings Gulf hurricanes and tropical remnants. After a storm we see separated seams, pulled hangers and debris packed into the outlets, and we photograph each one. Having clean gutters before the storm makes it easier to see what the storm actually did. A post-storm visit is quoted the same way as a scheduled one.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice line. We are a gutter company that sets up one recurring schedule for the whole portfolio, so residential and commercial properties sit under a single contact. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate and we will set it up.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
