We quote commercial gutter work per building in El Dorado Hills, priced from 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 work on the properties we service across California, and our schedule runs through the spring and fall visits that keep downspouts clear before the seasons turn.
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 professional gutter work per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. The number on the phone is the number on the invoice, and we will not add a surcharge after the crew is on the roof.
What moves the quote on our jobs is mostly height. A commercial building above three stories needs a boom or scissor lift set up under fall-protection rules, and that changes the crew size and the time on site. Compacted debris in a clogged gutter on a system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer to clear than a seasonal load, and a gutter guard that has to be lifted and reseated adds time on every run. Left alone, a blocked gutter can send water over the edge and onto the siding, and that spillover is an early route to water damage at the fascia. Oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of commercial buildings on one site all go into the figure.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building, unlike the add-ons that some gutter companies bill. A scheduled semi-annual or quarterly gutter maintenance plan is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building and the footage is measured. Gutter cleaning service for a single building and for a campus is quoted the same way, building by building.
Our most recent commercial work in El Dorado Hills is a useful picture of what sets a quote. We need the address or a site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and the name of the party the invoice goes to before we write anything. For a clog that keeps water spilling past the roofline, we flag it on the report rather than selling a second visit. Commercial properties of every size get the same written estimate for a thorough gutter cleaning, and a gutter that still shows overflow after cleaning usually points to slope, which we photograph and describe for you.
| 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 El Dorado Hills 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 are on quarterly. For residential and commercial buildings alike, the twice-a-year visit is the usual start. That split is what we see on the job, not a rule we are passing along.
Managers book our cleaning services after a heavy run of weather, and across California atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days. The post-storm calls usually find grit-packed downspouts and sagging runs, and the inspection turns up what the season did to the system. Leaves, pollen and landscape debris load the gutters in the months around the fall visit, and the freeze risk is a reason to clear the gutter system before the cold comes.
Flat roofs behave differently. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently, and the first thing the tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile, a membrane blister or a leak. That is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on those buildings, and why the gutter cleaning process on a flat roof includes the drains, not just the gutters.
A building on the twice-a-year schedule and one on the quarterly schedule look different when we open them, and the crew writes that down so the next visit starts from the last one. Every visit ends with a thorough cleaning check, a final inspection and photos of each run and each downspout. To book the next visit, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the gutters and we will set the date 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 provide gutter cleaning across the city's commercial corridors and business parks, through the professional gutter cleaning services that portfolios with several buildings need. Our service area also takes in the surrounding areas, so one coordinator sets the dates for every building, the schedule is confirmed in writing, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact when it arrives. The crew brings its own tools and cleaning solutions, so the site has nothing to supply. Where a property asks for work timed around tenant hours, we plan the visit that way.
A property manager gets the most out of the schedule when the building list and the access rules arrive with the first request. We also do cleaning for commercial and residential properties, and homeowners and businesses both get the same written quote for a residential gutter or a commercial roofline. Residential work for a homeowner is the same kind of crew on a different kind of roof. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on the same calendar, and gutter protection such as guard installs is quoted separately from the cleaning. Multi-site owners get one invoice per building with the linear footage shown, so an owner or a board can check the numbers line by line.
The point of a scheduled portfolio is that the crew knows the buildings. The blockage that formed on a roof last season is already in the report, and the next visit starts from that record instead of from zero. That is a practical answer to the gutter cleaning needs of a commercial property with several buildings. Keeping the gutters clear is the simplest way to protect your home or business from water damage, whether it is one building or a campus. To set up a schedule, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline.
We price per building, but the number is built from linear footage, height and gutter type, so each one is measured. What it depends on is in the pricing section, and the figure comes to you in writing for that building before we are dispatched.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause of your lease, and the section above on who pays shows how responsibility usually reads under each lease type. This is not legal advice, so check the lease with the attorney who drafted it.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service, quarterly is what we see holding up, because grease and the internal drains fill faster than on most commercial buildings. We check the drains between cleanings, since a blocked drain can cause roof leaks that show up on the ceiling first.
Yes. Some gutter cleaners only work from a ladder, but above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift under fall-protection rules, and the lift is matched to the roofline. Height is the biggest factor in the quote, so tell us the stories when you ask.
Yes. Give us the access rules and the hours the building needs quiet, and we plan the visit around them. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact when it arrives.
Both. On flat roofs the drains and scuppers are part of the job, because that is where water backs up first. We clear the debris, reseat the strainer domes and photograph what we find, and any leak we see gets flagged on the report.
Managers in El Dorado Hills and the surrounding areas call us after a storm, and the post-storm inspections usually turn up grit-packed downspouts and sagging runs before they become water damage. We inspect, clear what is blocked and report anything that needs a repair, without selling it to you.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice with the linear footage shown, and one gutter company runs the recurring schedule for the whole list under one contact. A residential gutter cleaning on a home is invoiced the same way. Send us the addresses and we will set the dates in writing.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
