We are the crew that does the work, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Every commercial building gets a per-building quote for gutter and downspout cleaning, priced from its footprint and height, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job and a photo report when we finish. Across Arizona our scheduled crews book the same properties each June and again in November and December, and the managers who call us after a storm know exactly what we will do on the roof.
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. Ask any gutter cleaners you call for a figure per building and get the scope in writing too. What moves the number is what we run into on the property: a building over three stories that needs a boom or scissor lift to reach the eaves under fall-protection rules, compacted debris that has built into a clog on a system nobody has cleaned in years, each gutter guard or other gutter protection that has to be lifted and reseated, oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building, not billed as extras, and a thorough gutter cleaning on a scheduled semi-annual or quarterly plan is priced lower than a one-off call. A run that overflows sends water down the siding and into the fascia, so every gutter cleaning service we book includes a thorough cleaning of the outlets, not just the run you can see from the ground. Tell us the property type, stories, roof type and building count and we will tell you what the job takes.
On a recent Tucson job a three-story office building with a flat roof and internal drains set the quote, because the back run needed a lift and the scuppers had sat packed with grit through a full monsoon season, which is what we found and cleared. Each property we quote needs an address or site plan, stories, roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the roofline, and we will send a written estimate per building.
| 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.
Most Tucson properties we service are on twice a year, a visit in mid to late June and another in November to December across Arizona, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on quarterly. The residential and commercial properties we clean follow that calendar, and the gutter cleaning process is the same on every visit: clear, flush, check, photograph. The managers who call us after a storm usually find the same problem, a downspout blocked by debris that backed water into the fascia and siding.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-bound leaf mat and packaging, and a flat-roof building under the monsoon fills its internal drains faster than the roof surface shows. On a flat roof the parapets and scuppers overflow without a sound, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a leak over the desk, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists.
Gutter maintenance between visits is that monthly check, and for a flat roof the cleaning solutions that hold are a set schedule and drain checks, not one visit a year. Each property goes into the plan according to what it actually needs, and every visit ends with a final inspection of the gutter system and roof drains, with the findings in the photo file. We will tell you which schedule fits your building after the first visit.
| 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 run professional gutter cleaning services across Tucson for commercial buildings, from single-storefront offices to multi-building sites. We also provide gutter cleaning for a homeowner with a house and a shop, so one crew handles both, and we treat commercial and residential properties on the same written schedule, with every residential gutter run photographed the same way as a commercial one. A portfolio gets one contact who sees every building on the schedule, a date confirmed in writing, and a crew that checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Where tenant hours or access rules apply, we time the work around them. Lead times depend on the season and the building count, so we give you the date when we confirm the booking.
The service area is Tucson and the surrounding areas, and we serve homeowners and businesses on the same written terms. Our crew handles the landscape around each building as part of the visit, clearing debris from walkways and planting beds under the work, and we flag any water damage at the fascia or soffit in the report. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a schedule that matches the building, and we tailor each portfolio to its gutter cleaning needs and the blockage each site collects.
Call (866) 435-6328 to set up a site walk or send the building list and we will return a written schedule.
We price per building, but the number is built from linear footage, height and gutter type, so each property gets its own figure in writing. Compare any gutter cleaning companies on that same basis, because what the number depends on is the building in front of us, not a standard rate. Send the site plan or address and we will write the quote.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause and see which section of the lease names the party responsible; the lease types above are set out in that section of this page. This is not legal advice, so ask the attorney who drafted the lease if the clause is unclear.
On the restaurants and flat-roof buildings we service, quarterly is the schedule that holds, because grease and the monsoon load fill the drains faster than an annual visit can keep up with, and a clogged gutter on a restaurant can overflow before the next annual visit. Between cleanings we check the internal drains on each visit.
Yes. Commercial buildings above three stories get a boom or scissor lift with fall protection, and the crew is tied off the whole time. Tell us the height and we will confirm the setup in the quote.
Yes. We time the work around the hours and access rules you give us, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact before going up. Send the access requirements with the quote request so the booking is right the first time.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as part of the visit, along with the gutter runs and downspouts, and a final inspection closes out the job. Anything else we find is photographed and reported, not repaired without your authorization.
Monsoon storms across Arizona can drop a lot of water in an hour, and Tucson averages about 12 inches of rain a year, most of it in July, August and September. A blocked downspout or a packed scupper can cause roof leaks and water damage at the fascia, so clear the gutters before the season to protect your home. Text us a photo of the roofline and we will tell you whether it needs a visit.
Yes. We invoice per building, so whether it's a home or business, each property owner or manager can match each invoice to their books. We also set up a recurring schedule across a portfolio with one contact, and a gutter company that can do that is easier to hold to the scope. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate with the building list.
