We are a gutter company with our own crew, scheduled on our own calendar, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Property managers and facilities leads book us for office, retail and multifamily buildings, and most of them book us ahead of the spring and late fall seasons.

What Commercial Gutter Cleaning Costs in Ontario

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. Call (866) 435-6328 or send us your site plan and we will put the number in writing. Get it in writing so you can compare gutter cleaning companies on the same basis.

What moves the quote on commercial buildings in Ontario is height above three stories, which means a boom or scissor lift and tie-off under fall-protection rules. Compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer, and so do the gutter guards and gutter protection that have to be lifted and reseated, oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site. 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 already measured.

For a quote we need the address or site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Our Ontario properties with a flat roof and internal drains take a different route than a pitched roof with open gutters, and the written estimate shows which one you have. Our crew handles the gutter cleaning service for each building and covers the surrounding areas around Ontario inside our service area. Thorough gutter cleaning on a commercial roofline is what we are there to do, and thorough cleaning means every run gets cleared, not just the easy ones. A clog caught early costs less than an overflow that runs down the siding, or a leak that reaches a tenant's ceiling. Ask for the written estimate, because clean gutters are how we help protect your home from water that gets behind the fascia.

Who Pays for Gutter Cleaning, the Tenant or the Landlord

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.

How Often Commercial Gutters in Ontario Need Cleaning

At least twice a year for a standard building. Restaurants, flat roofs and anything under trees, quarterly.

Most Ontario properties we service 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, spring visits fall in mid to late June and fall visits in late November to December, and the cleaning services we schedule for each property start with what the roofline is actually carrying.

Across California, atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and on the properties we clean the post-storm inspections turn up the most, with debris packed into the runs and downspouts that were fine a month earlier. The gutter cleaning process on a commercial roof is the same checks each visit, run by the same gutter cleaners, which is why we keep the same people on the same buildings.

On flat roofs, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without any warning. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister. A backed-up drain can cause roof leaks before anyone sees a stain. That is why gutter maintenance includes a monthly check between cleanings, and why every visit ends with a final inspection. Text us a photo of the roofline and we will tell you what we see. Our crew works to the same standard on every roof, and we keep the gutter system on each building in the state we would want on our own. Where a gutter guard is fitted, we check it at each visit and pick cleaning solutions that suit the roofing material.

Fall Protection and Lifts on Commercial Rooflines

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.

What a Commercial Gutter Cleaning Includes

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.

Scheduled Semi-Annual or Quarterly Service

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.

Where We Work Around Ontario

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 and professional gutter cleaning services for residential and commercial properties across the Ontario business districts where we have serviced buildings. We also handle residential gutter cleaning for each homeowner who asks, on the same schedule and invoice rules. Our crew arrives at the site, checks in with the on-site contact, and works around tenant hours where asked.

For a portfolio or a multi-site account, you get one contact for every building, and the same contact covers commercial and residential properties if you manage both. We confirm each date in writing, and the invoice goes to the party you name, per building, with the linear footage shown. Sites with several buildings get a single schedule so the crew can clear one property and move to the next without a second call. The residential gutter work and the landscape around the building are scoped separately from the commercial roofline.

Gutter cleaning and maintenance on these sites is what keeps a building from developing water damage at the fascia and soffit. A blockage that goes unchecked is the most common cause of the roof leaks we find, and it affects homeowners and businesses alike. Tell us your gutter cleaning needs and we will offer gutter cleaning on a date that suits the building, in writing. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date, or text a photo of the roofline.

Frequently asked questions about commercial gutter cleaning in Ontario

How is commercial gutter cleaning priced, per linear foot or per building?

We can price either way, and the number depends on the linear footage, the height and the gutter type. The number comes in writing per building before we are dispatched. When you compare gutter cleaning companies, ask every one for the same basis, per building or per linear foot, so the numbers line up.

Who pays for gutter cleaning on a commercial lease, the tenant or the landlord?

The lease decides, and the section above on who pays walks through each lease type. This is not legal advice, so read the maintenance clause of your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it.

How often should a restaurant or a flat-roof building in Ontario be cleaned?

On our Ontario jobs, restaurants and flat-roof buildings with internal drains go on a quarterly schedule. A clogged gutter on a flat roof can cause roof leaks, so we look at these buildings more often than a standard office, and our gutter maintenance schedule follows the roof.

Can you clean gutters on a building over three stories?

Yes. We work from a boom or scissor lift with tie-off on commercial buildings above three stories, and the lift is matched to the building.

Can you work around tenant hours and on-site access rules?

Yes. Tell us the access rules and the hours you need, and the crew works to them. We check in with the on-site contact on arrival.

Do you clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, or only gutters?

We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as part of the scope, along with the gutter runs and downspouts. Where a drain is blocked below grade, we quote that separately.

What happens after a severe storm in Ontario?

After a severe storm the post-storm call-outs turn up debris packed into the runs and downspouts, along with the occasional pulled hanger. Our gutter cleaners photograph what they find and report it, and what to do about it is your call.

Can you invoice per building and set up a recurring schedule for several properties?

Yes. Each building gets its own invoice, and a recurring schedule covers all of them. We are a gutter company that serves commercial and residential properties alike, so the same crew handles both kinds of property. Call (866) 435-6328 to set up a schedule, or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with a written estimate.
