We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building, priced from the footprint and height of each one, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job and a photo report when we finish. Our crew does this work on a schedule, not as a side job between roofing contracts, so the person on the ladder is the person you booked. Across California we run spring and late fall visits for property managers, HOA boards and facilities leads who need the same crew every season. Call (866) 435-6328 or request a quote for your building.
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. Each building gets its own number, so a property with four buildings on one site sees four quotes that add up to the total. Each quote covers the full gutter cleaning service for that building, so the number is known before the crew arrives.
Height is the main thing that moves the quote. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift, and the fall-protection setup costs more time than a one-story run. Other things we see on Anaheim properties: compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, oversized or box gutters on industrial buildings, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and a second building added to the same visit. A clogged gutter that has been causing overflow for a season takes longer to clear than a fresh one, and that shows on the quote. Where a downspout discharges onto siding, we check the base for staining and standing water. Each downspout gets a thorough cleaning from the top outlet to the splash block. A thorough gutter cleaning on a long run is priced by the footage. Commercial buildings in the surrounding areas are quoted the same way, from a site plan. Any gutter protection work is quoted separately from the cleaning. Clearing the outlets is how we protect your home or building from water damage before it starts. Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are not billed as extras. 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 measured.
On a recent office job, a multi-building site with flat roofs and internal drains was quoted per building after a site walk, and the quote reflected the roof drains and the scuppers that had backed up behind the parapet. You can see the job here: commercial case in Anaheim. To quote your property we need the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, how many buildings sit on the site, and who the invoice should go to.
| 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.
Most commercial properties we service in Anaheim are on twice a year, spring and late fall. Across California, spring visits land in mid to late June and fall visits in late November to December. Restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on quarterly. Our schedule follows what we pull out of each gutter on the visit before, which is why we check the first visit closely before we set the interval. Whether it is a home or business, the interval has to follow how much debris the first visit pulls out. Our cleaning services for property managers run on a set calendar once the first visit is done. On a building with a gutter guard, debris sits on top of the guard and works in under its edges, so the first visit checks the guard seams too. Ask gutter cleaners or gutter cleaning companies how they count a flat roof's internal drains before you compare numbers.
Storm season is what sends property managers to us outside the calendar. Across California, atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and the gutter system is the first thing to show it. After a heavy rain, the post-storm call-outs turn up leaf mats in the outlets and downspouts that were clear a month earlier. A leak that shows up after a storm usually started as a blocked outlet. On flat roofs, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister. That is why gutter maintenance on those roofs includes a monthly check between cleanings. Crews serving residential and commercial accounts clear the outlets first, then check the scuppers, and where a membrane needs cleaning solutions the crew agrees the product with the property manager first. The cleaning process ends with a final inspection before the crew leaves the site. To set the interval for your building, call (866) 435-6328, text a photo of the roofline, or book a date for 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 have serviced properties in Anaheim's business districts and corridors, and we schedule them with one contact for every building on the site. Every property in our service area gets the same written quote, whether a homeowner is calling about one house or a manager is calling about several buildings. Our professional gutter cleaning services cover the whole site, including the lot edges where landscape debris collects. A date is confirmed in writing, our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival, and we time the work around tenant hours where asked. We clear any blockage at a lot-edge downspout first, because standing water there is where water damage starts. We do not promise same-day or next-day dates; lead time depends on the calendar and is confirmed when you call. Call (866) 435-6328 or book a date for your site.
For a property manager with several sites, we set up one recurring schedule, one invoice per building, and one point of contact. Our commercial work runs next to our residential gutter cleaning, which is what keeps our crews working through the year. We provide gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses alike, and if you manage a mixed portfolio we can offer gutter cleaning for both under one schedule. Gutter cleaning and maintenance for each building stays on that same schedule, and we confirm your gutter cleaning needs for every site in writing before the first visit.
We price per building. Linear footage, height and gutter type set the number, and it comes in writing for each building before work starts, so you can compare it against a per-foot figure if that is how your board reads bids. If you want to check a gutter company's bid against ours, ask whether the number includes height and roof drains.
The lease names the party that carries exterior upkeep, and we bill that party building by building. Check the maintenance clause of your lease, since it governs both the work and the invoice. If the clause is unclear, ask the attorney who drafted it.
On the flat roofs and restaurant lines we see, quarterly is what keeps the internal drains and scuppers clear between storms. A blocked drain is what can cause roof leaks, so a roof with heavy grease or debris load may need the monthly check added.
Yes, and the height is priced into that building's quote. The setup depends on the roofline, so we bring the lift it requires and state it in writing.
Yes. Tell us the access window and the rules for the building, and we plan the visit around them and check in with the on-site contact when we arrive.
Both. The gutter cleaning process on a flat roof starts at the drains and works out to the gutters, and roof drains and scuppers are cleared of debris and the strainer domes reseated. We photograph each one in the report. Repair of any defect we find is a separate job you decide on.
Post-storm call-outs most often turn up leaf mats in outlets and downspouts that were clear a month earlier, and occasionally a pulled hanger. A clogged gutter after a storm is usually leaf mat, and a leak in a ceiling is usually a blocked outlet upstream. We photograph what we find and report it before anything else happens. This applies to commercial and residential properties alike, and if you want clean gutters before the next storm, ask us to schedule a visit now.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice and a single schedule covers the whole portfolio. The schedule can also cover gutter maintenance between cleanings, quoted building by building. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to start one.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
