We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning in Phoenix per building, priced from each building's footprint and height. Our crew does the work on every site, not a roofer fitting it in between re-roofs. Fall protection or a lift goes on every job, and you get a photo report once we are done.
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 and downspout work 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 number on our jobs is height above three stories and the boom or scissor lift it requires under fall-protection rules, a gutter guard that has to be lifted before the run can be cleared, oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site. A clog in a box gutter adds time, and so does siding that has to be protected while the crew works the run. Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building, not billed as extras. A final inspection of each run closes out the job before the crew leaves the site. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly gutter cleaning service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building and the footage is already measured. Cleaning solutions for stained fascia are quoted on the written estimate, not added to the invoice later.
Our Phoenix work covers residential and commercial buildings, mostly standard commercial buildings and multi-building sites where the managers want one contact and one invoice per property. Whether it is a home or business, the quote starts with the building and its gutter system. To quote a Phoenix 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. Send those and we will put the number in writing. Ask the gutter cleaners and gutter cleaning companies on your list to put their lift and fall-protection plans in writing too. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will confirm the lift and fall-protection setup before the date is booked.
| Per building | |
|---|---|
| Standard, one to two stories | from $150 |
| Oversized box or industrial gutters | from $295 |
| Three stories and up, with a lift | from $395 |
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.
On the Phoenix properties we service, most are on twice a year, spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on quarterly. Across Arizona, spring visits usually land in mid to late June and fall visits in November to December, and we set each date to the building. Our cleaning services follow the same logic: the building sets the interval, not the calendar. What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laden debris that a semi-annual visit would let harden into a crust. Monsoon storms hit across Arizona, and the blockage that built up over the summer is what overflows onto walkways below.
On a flat roof, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and the first sign of water damage is usually a stained ceiling tile or a blister in the membrane. That is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. We would rather catch a slow drain on a schedule than find water in a ceiling on a Monday. A homeowner with a flat-roof addition gets the same logic. We provide gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses on one calendar, and the cleaning process stays the same: the interval follows the gutter cleaning needs of the building. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance as one scheduled visit, and professional gutter cleaning services are priced on that calendar, not per emergency call. Book a date for the season and we will set the interval with you building by building.
| 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 serve commercial and residential properties across Phoenix, and where a site needs it we handle the full gutter job for an entire portfolio in one visit. A property manager with several buildings deals with one contact on our side, gets a date confirmed in writing, and receives a single invoice with each building itemized. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival and times the work around tenant hours when that is what the lease requires. Lead time depends on the season and the size of the site, so we give it when we quote rather than promising a fixed window. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date, and we will put the gutter maintenance schedule in writing.
Multi-site scheduling is where the residential gutter cleaning process and the commercial one differ most. Each building keeps its own footage, lift requirement and schedule of cleanings, so a portfolio is not priced as one lump sum. A building with heavy landscape around it drops more debris into the runs, so its cleanings come more often. For property owners who also run homes, we do residential work on the same calendar, but the commercial schedule is built around the building, not the house. Our crew will clean gutters on every run and check the downspouts, because blocked runs can cause roof leaks at the fascia and flashing. A gutter company that cannot tell you which downspouts were flow-tested will leave water behind a wall, and we would rather show you the photos than promise it.
We quote per building, and the number depends on the linear footage, the height and the gutter type. Some managers ask for a per-foot rate to compare vendors, and we can break the building figure down that way on the written estimate. The total you approve is the total on the invoice.
The lease decides, not state law. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, which sets out the triple net, gross or silent cases in the section above. This is not legal advice, so ask the attorney who drafted the lease if the clause is unclear.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service, quarterly is what keeps the drains clear, because grease and grit build up faster than a semi-annual visit can handle. Skipping that visit is how a slow drain turns into a leak. We set the first date after a walk-through so the interval matches the building.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift, and every job gets fall protection tied off to the building or the lift. Tell us the height when you request the quote so we can bring the right equipment. A thorough gutter cleaning at that height takes the right lift, not a ladder.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours when the site asks for it and follow the access rules the property manager gives us, including check-in at the front desk. Give us the rules when you book so the crew arrives ready.
Both. On flat roofs we clear the roof drains and scuppers along with the gutters and reseat the strainer domes. A clogged gutter on a flat roof rarely shows until water is already inside, so anything we find that needs repair is photographed and reported, not fixed on the spot. Ask about gutter protection if the runs clog every season.
Monsoon storms hit across Arizona, and a single cell can drop heavy rain in an hour, even in a city that averages only 8.9 inches a year. The problem after that is usually a clogged gutter that let water overflow onto walkways. We inspect the runs, do a thorough cleaning of what is packed, and send photos of the drains and downspouts, because a thorough cleaning is how you protect your home from the next storm.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice and its own interval, and we can set up a recurring schedule across the whole portfolio. The schedule covers every building inside our service area, and we also cover surrounding areas, so a property just outside the city can join the same calendar. Commercial properties with several sites are set up in one pass. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate and we will have it set up before the first visit.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
