We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning in Lodi per building, priced from the footprint and height of each one. Every job is worked from fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and you get a photo report of every run when we finish. We are the crew that does the work, scheduled on your calendar, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. On our Lodi jobs the properties we see most are offices, retail strips and multifamily buildings, and they book us ahead of the spring and late fall visits, before leaves and seed load the 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 cleaning per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. The quote lists each building separately so the invoice matches it line for line. The same method applies to every commercial property and every gutter cleaning service we quote, and it is the fairest way to compare gutter cleaning companies: on the written scope, not the rate alone.
Four things move the quote on our jobs. Height above three stories means a boom or scissor lift under fall-protection rules, and that changes the setup. A clog of compacted debris on a system not cleaned in years takes longer to clear and flush, and a clogged gutter can overflow and back water up onto the siding. A gutter guard or other gutter protection that must be lifted and reseated adds time on every run. Oversized or box gutters and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs add their own footage to the gutter system. The number of buildings on one site is the last factor, because we bill them as one visit with one contact.
A thorough gutter cleaning includes downspout flushing and debris haul-off per building, and neither is billed as an extra. Every run gets a thorough cleaning, not a quick pass from the ground. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the footage is already measured and the crew is already booked. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to book a date.
On a recent Lodi job we quoted an office property with two buildings: a two-story building with standard gutters and a three-story building with a flat roof and internal drains. The three-story building needed the lift and the drains, which set its quote. The full case is at the Lodi office job.
To quote a Lodi property we need the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. Send them and we will write the quote back to 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 Lodi properties we service, most are on twice a year, spring and late fall. Restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover are on quarterly. The managers who call us after a storm are usually the ones who skipped a fall visit and found water coming off the fascia. Scheduled gutter maintenance is what keeps those calls from happening. The late fall visit runs December to early January, right in the wettest months here, December, January and February, so clean gutters going into that stretch are what keep water off the fascia. Lodi averages 18.4 inches of rain a year.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laden debris, fryer exhaust residue and the grit that blows in off the parking lot, all of it packed into the downspout elbows, along with landscape debris from the planters along the walls. Storm season across California brings most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and the post-storm inspections turn up sagged runs, pulled hangers and standing water in the low sections of flat roofs. Freeze risk is real in Lodi in winter, so wet debris left in a downspout can freeze solid.
Flat roofs back up quietly. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers fill with leaf and grit, and the blockage stays out of sight until water sits and finds a seam. Water that sits on a flat roof will cause roof leaks, and a leak usually shows up first as a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists.
On a three-building office site we clean twice a year, and last spring we found two downspouts discharging onto a walkway and missing splash blocks. That is the kind of thing the final inspection and the photo report flag before a tenant does.
| 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 business districts and corridors of Lodi where we have serviced properties. Our service area is Lodi and the surrounding areas, and we handle a multi-building portfolio as one account, as a gutter company that works building by building. Whether it is a home or business, you get one contact for every building, a service date confirmed in writing, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Work can be timed around tenant hours when you ask for it. Our cleaning process is the same on every building, so the photo report reads the same way from site to site.
Property managers and facilities leads book us for office parks, retail strips and multifamily sites, and the same crew handles a single building as readily as a portfolio. Our professional gutter cleaning services cover commercial properties and the flat roofs they sit under, with the same photo report on every visit. We also offer residential gutter cleaning for the homeowner, which helps protect your home from water damage, and our residential and commercial schedules run side by side for owners who hold both kinds of property. Owners of commercial and residential properties often put both on one account, and we serve homeowners and businesses alike, with one calendar for gutter cleaning and maintenance.
Lead time for our cleaning services depends on the season and the size of the site, and we confirm it in writing once the site details are in. Send us the addresses and we will tell you what we can schedule and when. Ask any gutter cleaners you compare us with for the same thing: a written scope for each building and a photo report.
We price per building from the footage, height and gutter type, and the number comes to you in writing before any work is scheduled. The factors are the same whether you pay per linear foot or per building. Ask any gutter cleaning companies you compare us with which cleaning solutions they use, and get the answer in writing.
The lease decides it, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it, and we will invoice whichever party the lease names. This is not legal advice.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service, quarterly is what keeps internal drains clear. Each visit we photograph the drains and scuppers so the next visit starts from a known condition. Clean gutters on that schedule keep the drains from backing up between visits.
Yes. We work from a boom or scissor lift on taller commercial buildings, with fall protection on every job, and we bring the lift the roofline needs.
Yes. Tell us your gutter cleaning needs, along with the hours and the access rules, when you book, and the crew will work inside them. We check in with the on-site contact when we arrive.
Both. Roof drains and scuppers are cleared of debris and the strainer domes reseated, and the report shows each one.
The post-storm call-outs turn up sagged runs, pulled hangers and downspouts blocked with storm debris. The gutter cleaning process starts with a photo of each finding, and we clean the runs once they are safe to work.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice, and a recurring gutter maintenance schedule can cover the whole portfolio on one calendar. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will set it up.
