We quote each commercial building in Aliso Viejo separately, 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. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We service office, retail and multifamily properties across California, and most of our commercial clients book for spring and late fall.
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 each building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Height is the biggest single factor: above three stories the job runs from a boom or scissor lift, and the setup changes the quote. Compacted debris on a system that has not been cleaned in years takes longer to clear and reseat, a clog at one downspout can back up the whole run, any gutter guard or gutter protection on the run has to be lifted to reach what sits beneath it, and oversized or box gutters carry more volume per foot. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs add their own time, and the number of buildings on one site affects how we set the crew.
Our gutter cleaning service is priced per building, and downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included and not billed as extras. Some gutter cleaners price a building by eye, which misses height and access. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building and the footage is already measured.
At city scope, the work we have done on a comparable Aliso Viejo property is a useful reference: a multi-story office building where the roof type, the number of buildings and what we found on the first pass set the quote. Across California, what we need to quote an Aliso Viejo property is the address or site plan, stories, roof type, number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Send those and we will return a written estimate for each building. The same written quote covers the surrounding areas, so a property owner with buildings on both sides of town gets one format. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate by email, and we will confirm your address is inside our service area.
Our thorough gutter cleaning covers every run, not just the sections visible from the parking lot. Thorough cleaning also means the photo report records each run before and after, so the property manager has a record of the work.
| Per building | |
|---|---|
| Standard, one to two stories | from $150 |
| Oversized box or industrial gutters | from $340 |
| Three stories and up, with a lift | from $455 |
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 Aliso Viejo properties we service, most are on twice a year, in spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees or beside landscape beds are on quarterly. Across California, spring visits usually land in mid to late June and fall visits in late November to December, with storm and leaf seasons driving the timing. Post-storm inspections are where we most often find downspouts blocked and gutters sagging under debris, with overflow at the roof edge.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laden debris that holds water and drops onto walkways, which is why those properties stay on the shorter cycle. Our cleaning services for these buildings include gutter maintenance in the form of a monthly check between visits, so a problem shows up before it reaches a ceiling. The gutter cleaning process is the same as for any building: clear, flush, flow-test, haul away, then photograph. Our cleaning solutions are matched to the debris on each roof, so a restaurant line gets a different approach than an office.
Flat roofs deserve particular attention. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile, a membrane blister or a leak. A clogged gutter on a flat roof rarely shows until water has already found a seam, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. A property manager on a flat roof is usually reacting to damage that started weeks earlier, and a short schedule prevents that.
Whether the property is a homeowner-style multi-unit complex or a retail strip, the same schedule logic applies. We clean both residential and commercial properties, and a building on our schedule gets the same final inspection before the crew leaves the site. For a homeowner or a property manager with commercial and residential properties on one account, the schedule is set building by building. For a gutter system with heavy tree load, the answer is quarterly; for a standard building with few trees, twice a year is enough to keep clean gutters on the roof. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the schedule for your property, or text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which cycle fits.
| 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 provide gutter cleaning for commercial properties across Aliso Viejo, and we handle multi-building portfolios and multi-site accounts with one point of contact. Put simply, we cover commercial buildings whether it is a single office or a full portfolio. As a gutter company with our own crew, we schedule each building ourselves. For a property manager, the process is simple: one contact covers every building, each date is confirmed in writing, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Where tenants need quiet hours, we time the work around them.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses, so a mixed portfolio can run on one account. A home or business on the same account gets the same written scope. Our professional gutter cleaning services cover the full property, and we offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a recurring schedule so the building is not waiting on a call after a storm. Whatever the property, the gutter cleaning needs are scoped in writing before work begins, and blockage is cleared at the source rather than pushed further down the system, which keeps water damage off the wall. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to book a date.
We quote per building, and the figure depends on the linear footage, the height, and the gutter type. Each building gets its own number in writing before we are dispatched, so you can compare buildings on the same basis. Some gutter cleaning companies bid by the foot alone, which misses height and access.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, and tell us who the invoice goes to so we bill the right party. This is not legal advice; see the section above for how the common lease types read.
On the restaurants and flat-roof buildings we service, quarterly is the schedule that holds. Grease and debris build up faster there, and parapets and scuppers back up without warning, so the shorter cycle catches a clogged gutter or backed-up scupper before it can cause roof leaks.
Yes. We set up a boom or scissor lift and fall protection for taller buildings, and the lift is matched to the building. Height is part of what the quote covers, so send the story count with your request.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours and follow the site's access rules, and we check in with the on-site contact on arrival. Send us the access requirements when you request the quote.
Both. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs are cleared of debris and the strainer domes reseated, and the photo report records each one. Clearing them is how we protect your home, or the building behind it, from water that backs up at the parapet.
After a severe storm we inspect the properties on our schedule, and the most common finds are blocked downspouts and gutters pulled loose by debris. When gutters overflow, the water runs down the siding and can soak the wall behind it, which is how water damage starts, so a clogged gutter after a storm is worth a call. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will book the post-storm visit.
Yes. As a gutter company with its own crew, we invoice each building separately with its linear footage shown, and a recurring schedule covers several properties under one account. Ask for a written estimate and we will set the dates.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
