We quote commercial gutter work per building in Napa, priced from each building's footprint and height. Our crew does the work on every job, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on any roofline that needs one, and you get a photo report after. We are our own scheduled crew, not a roofer working between re-roofs. Our Napa work runs across office, retail and multifamily buildings, and most of our bookings come in 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.
Our gutter cleaning service quotes each building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement before anyone is dispatched. If your building is in our service area, text a photo of the roofline to (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you what the quote turns on.
Height is the biggest factor. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift, and the crew works tied off from it under fall-protection rules. Compacted debris on a system not cleaned in years takes longer to clear, and a clog that has been sitting against the siding for a season takes longer again. Any gutter protection that has to be lifted off adds time, and oversized or box gutters and roof drains with scuppers on flat roofs are priced for their extra work. The number of buildings on one site also changes the setup, so a multi-building property gets one quote for the whole site.
A thorough gutter cleaning is priced per building, and the downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included rather than billed as extras. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew knows the property and the footage is already measured. Our Napa jobs deal with the usual overflow complaints that come with a standard system, and keeping the gutter system clear is how you protect your home or business from water damage.
A recent commercial job in Napa set its quote on property type, stories, roof type and the number of buildings, and the notes from the first visit are what we used to write the estimate. For your building we need the address or site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. Ask for a written estimate on your commercial properties and we will return it with the scope itemized 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 Napa properties we service, most buildings are on twice a year, spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees on quarterly. Across California the spring visit lands in mid to late June, and in Napa the fall visit runs December to early January. Either way, our cleaning services follow the building, and the cleaning process starts with what the roof needs.
After a storm we see the same thing on the managers who call us afterward, leaves and grit packed into the downspout elbows and water running back behind the fascia. Across California, atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and that is when a blockage in the gutter system does the most harm. Napa gets about 26.7 inches of rain a year, with January, February and December the wettest months, and Napa has freeze risk in winter, so we plan around it so runs do not sag under ice.
Flat roofs are where the schedule matters most. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and a blockage there can cause roof leaks that a tenant notices only as a stained ceiling tile. That is why the monthly check between cleanings ends with a final inspection, so a backed-up drain gets caught before it reaches the ceiling below. A gutter guard does not change that, because grit still collects on top of it.
| 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.
Our crew works the business districts and corridors of Napa and the surrounding areas where we have serviced commercial properties, and we bring the same setup to each site. A property manager gets one contact for every building in the portfolio, across the service area, and each date is confirmed in writing before the crew arrives. Buildings with heavy landscape around them, where trees drop leaves into the gutter system, get a look at the lower runs on arrival. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact and times the work around tenant hours when that is asked.
This page covers commercial work, but we also do residential work for homeowners and businesses, and a homeowner gets the same crew and process as a commercial client across commercial and residential properties alike. Multi-building portfolios are handled as one schedule, with one invoice per building so an owner can check each one against its own footage, and any blockage or water damage found on the way is photographed in the report.
Tell us what your buildings need, whether a one-off visit or a standing schedule, and we will quote the gutter cleaning and maintenance in writing. Our professional gutter cleaning services cover each building in the portfolio, and we work on the same terms for every site. We also cover the surrounding areas, and our cleaning solutions are built per building so one contract can cover several sites. Each visit is a thorough cleaning. Call (866) 435-6328 or book a date and we will confirm the scope in writing.
We price per building, and the number depends on the linear footage, the height and the gutter type. Many gutter cleaning companies quote by the foot alone, but gutter cleaners on a commercial roof also have to price the lift, so each building gets a written quote before we schedule it.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, and see the lease-type section above for how responsibility usually reads. This is not legal advice, so check the lease with the attorney who drafted it.
Restaurants and flat-roof buildings with internal drains are on a quarterly schedule with us. Between cleanings we run a monthly check, because a clogged gutter or drain is where a leak starts, and a backed-up drain can cause roof leaks before it shows on a ceiling. Commercial buildings on other schedules get the same gutter maintenance check between visits.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift, tied off under fall-protection rules, and we bring the lift the roofline needs. Send the stories and the roof type and we will confirm the setup in your written estimate.
Yes. We time the work around tenant hours when asked, check in with the on-site contact on arrival, and follow the access rules the building sets. The same approach applies to a home or business.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs along with the gutters, and every visit ends with a final inspection, with each one photographed in the report. Anything else we find is described and photographed, not repaired without authorization.
After a storm the calls we get are about leaves and grit packed into downspouts and water running behind the fascia. Our gutter cleaning process starts with an inspection, then we clear what is blocked and send photos, so you know what the storm left behind and how to keep clean gutters on the building through the wet season.
Yes. As a gutter company that works on residential and commercial properties, we invoice each building separately, and a multi-site portfolio runs on one recurring schedule. Call (866) 435-6328 or book a date and we will set up the plan in writing.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
