We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building, priced from each building's footprint and height. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Every job runs with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and every building gets a photo report afterward. Most of our commercial work across California is booked for spring and late fall, when debris and leaf load peak on flat roofs and in long gutter runs.
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 jobs per building, from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or satellite measurement before anyone is dispatched. What moves the number on our jobs is mostly height above three stories and the boom or scissor lift it requires under fall-protection rules. Compacted debris on a system that has not been cleaned in years takes longer than a light maintenance pass, and a clogged gutter that has been spilling its overflow down the fascia takes longer still. Gutter protection that has to be lifted off first, oversized or box gutters, and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs all add labor. The number of buildings on one site also changes the setup and the invoice.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are not billed as extras, which is the line to check when you compare gutter cleaning companies. 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.
A Garden Grove property we quoted recently was a multi-building office site where the quote came down to stories, roof type and the number of buildings on the parcel. For a quote, send us the address or a site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. The gutter cleaning service, the clog check, the siding and gutter guard questions and the gutter system layout all get sorted out on that first call, and the final inspection photos show what was done on each building. Residential and commercial properties are quoted the same way, by building, and the owner or manager gets one invoice for each property. Our gutter cleaners price the home or business by the same measures, and the cleaning solutions we use are plain water and a soft flush, so nothing about the quote depends on chemicals. Call (866) 435-6328 for a written quote per building.
| 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 Garden Grove properties we service, most are on twice a year, in spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees on quarterly. The storm season and the post-storm inspections are what we see most: after the big rain events, the call-outs come from managers whose downspouts backed up. Leaves and pollen load the gutters on a predictable schedule, which is why the spring and fall visits are set around it. We provide gutter cleaning on either schedule, so the crew holds these windows for you.
Flat roofs back up quietly. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers hold water without any sign on the surface, and the first sign a tenant usually sees is a stained ceiling tile, a membrane blister, or a leak, and by then water damage has usually started. That is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on flat-roof properties.
Our gutter cleaning process on a restaurant or tree-covered building is the same as on a standard building, only on a shorter cycle. What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laced debris that a twice-a-year visit would miss. Cleaning services on that schedule keep the downspouts flowing, and the photos from each visit show what was found. Our professional gutter cleaning services on a quarterly plan are priced per building, and we offer gutter cleaning on both cycles. For a property that is a homeowner's rental or an HOA building, the cycle is the same and the invoice goes to the owner. Homeowners and businesses on our schedules get the same photo report. Our gutter cleaning and maintenance on a fixed calendar catches the blockage before it reaches the fascia, and that keeps gutter cleaning needs predictable for the year. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the cycle for your buildings, or text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which cycle it needs.
| 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 clean gutters for commercial and residential properties in Garden Grove, on the same crew. Our residential gutter cleaning is a separate schedule from the commercial work, but the same people do both. On the business districts, corridors and surrounding areas we have serviced, the properties range from single-story retail to multi-building office sites. Landscape conditions around each building change how fast debris collects, so we factor the planting and the drain layout into the cycle.
For a property manager with several buildings, scheduling works through one contact. The date is confirmed in writing before the crew arrives, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Work can be timed around tenant hours where asked. Lead time is set per property and confirmed on the call; we do not promise a same-day visit. Multi-site portfolios get one invoice per building, and one gutter company contact handles all of them. Gutter maintenance across every building in the portfolio means fewer surprises at the next inspection, since each one gets a thorough cleaning, and we will tell you if a building is showing signs that could cause roof leaks so you can plan around it. Call (866) 435-6328 or send us the list of addresses and we will confirm what can be scheduled.
We quote per building, but the number depends on what each building's gutter footage, height and gutter type require. We send the quote in writing per building, and the number on the quote is the number on the invoice.
The lease decides, not us. Check the maintenance clause of your lease, and see the section above on who pays for each lease type. This is not legal advice, so read the lease or ask the attorney who drafted it. Tell us who the invoice goes to and we will write it that way.
On the restaurants and flat-roof properties we service in Garden Grove, we see grease-laced debris and internal drain backup that a twice-a-year visit misses, so most of them run quarterly. We confirm the cycle after the first visit.
Yes. Buildings above three stories are done from a boom or scissor lift under fall-protection rules, and we bring the lift the roofline needs. Send us the stories and the roof type so we can confirm the setup before the crew is dispatched.
Yes. We time the work around tenant hours when asked, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Tell us the access rules when you book so the crew arrives prepared.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as part of the scope, along with the gutters and downspouts on the building. Where a drain shows a problem we cannot clear, we photograph it and put it in the report.
After a severe storm, the call-outs we see are a clogged gutter or downspouts backed up with debris, and water running over the parapet on flat roofs. We clear the blockage, flush the downspouts and photograph each run, which is a thorough gutter cleaning on that building. Clearing the downspouts is how you protect your home or business from storm water at the roofline. If the storm damage is beyond cleaning, we say so in the report and you decide the next step.
Yes. We invoice per building for every property in our service area and set up a recurring schedule across several properties under one contact. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will send a written estimate for each building.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
