We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in Rancho Cordova, priced from each building's footprint and height. Every job runs with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and you get a photo report of every run when we finish.
Our crew is scheduled and employed by us, not a roofer's side work between re-roofs. We handle office, retail and multifamily buildings across California, and most of our calls come in before the spring and late fall visits. Regular cleaning is how you protect your home or business, for residential and commercial buildings alike. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to book a date.
Quoted per building from footage, height and gutter type, in writing, before anyone is dispatched. Scheduled service costs less than a call-out.
Every quote is set per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or satellite measurement before anyone is dispatched.
Height is the first thing that moves the number. Anything above three stories needs a boom or scissor lift under our fall-protection rules, and that adds setup time and equipment to the job. On a system not cleaned in years, thorough gutter cleaning takes longer, since compacted debris has to come out first, and gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add crew time. Oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all factor in.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are part of the gutter cleaning process and included per building, not billed as extras. A thorough cleaning of each run is the baseline, not an upgrade. 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.
Our experience with Rancho Cordova commercial properties is one reason we ask for the same details on every quote: address or site plan, stories, roof type, number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Those five things let us write a clean number before we arrive. A clog that needs more than a hand tool or an overflow at a low corner is found in the walk-around, and we photograph it and note it in the report, not in a surprise line on the invoice. An overflow at a low corner often shows up as staining on the siding below it. Gutter protection products are outside our scope, and if one is failing we report it.
| 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 Rancho Cordova properties we service, most buildings are on twice a year, in spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover run on quarterly visits.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laced leaf and food grit, and it packs the downspout elbows faster than any other property type we see. Industrial sites with dust and debris come next. The managers who call us after a storm are usually reacting to the first time they looked up in a year, the same way a homeowner does after the first ceiling stain.
On a flat roof the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and a backed-up drain can cause roof leaks before anyone sees water. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, and by then the water has been sitting for weeks. That is why gutter maintenance between cleanings includes a monthly check on those buildings.
Gutter guards are one of the cleaning solutions people ask about, but a clean gutter system still needs someone who lifts the guard, clears what sits under it, and reseats it. Some gutter cleaning companies only blow the top of the run, and cleaning services like that miss what the gutter system is holding. Our cleaning process is the same for every residential and commercial property: we clear, flush, and photograph the run before we leave, and the final inspection is the report you receive that day.
| 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 Rancho Cordova for commercial properties, and our professional crews work the business corridors and business parks where we have serviced buildings before. Landscape debris, leaves and dust fill those runs fast. Our service area covers Rancho Cordova and the surrounding areas. For a property manager with several sites, the setup is simple: one contact with us for every building, a date confirmed in writing, and a crew that checks in with the on-site contact on arrival.
Work can be timed around tenant hours when that is what the lease or the site requires. A blocked run left for a season is how water damage starts at the fascia and the wall below it. We can offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a single schedule across a portfolio, so your gutter cleaning needs for each building stay on one calendar. We also take on mixed sites, so a building with a commercial ground floor and residential units above is handled as one job, with the invoice split by building if you ask.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners, and the same crew handles both kinds of work. Our professional gutter cleaning services cover homeowners and businesses, and the blockage we remove from commercial and residential properties alike is the same kind of blockage. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the building list, and we will book a date and confirm it in writing.
We quote commercial buildings one at a time. The number depends on linear footage, height and gutter type, which we measure from a site plan or satellite image. Some gutter cleaners price by the foot, but height and access change the job, so we quote the whole building and write the figure down before anyone is dispatched.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, and see the section above on who pays by lease type. This is not legal advice, so check with the attorney who drafted the lease if the clause is unclear.
On restaurants and flat roofs with internal drains we are on quarterly visits, because the grease and the blocked scuppers build up faster than leaves alone. Ask us for a schedule and we will set the dates for the building.
Yes. We work from a boom or scissor lift on taller buildings, with fall protection on every job. Tell us the height when you request the quote so we bring the right equipment.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours when that is required, and we check in with your on-site contact on arrival. Text a photo of the roofline and the access gate to us before the date so the crew arrives ready.
We clear the gutters, downspouts, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and we photograph each one before we leave. If a drain line below grade needs clearing, we quote it separately and only with your approval.
After a storm we get calls from managers who find debris in the gutters and water coming off the parapets. We inspect the runs and downspouts, clear what the storm left behind, including any clogged gutter, and note any leak source that needs a repair in the report, not in the work order.
Yes. We invoice per building, and as one gutter company for every property you own, we set up a recurring schedule on one calendar. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate by building, and we will confirm the dates in writing.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
