We quote commercial gutter work per building, priced from its footprint and height, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job and a photo report after. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We work on properties across California, and we book the spring and fall visits ahead so your buildings stay on one calendar.
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 each commercial building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Once the numbers are in, we send them to you so there are no surprises on the invoice.
Height is the biggest single factor on our jobs. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift, and the setup time and fall protection add to the crew's day. Compacted debris matters too: a clogged gutter that has not been cleaned in years takes longer to clear than one we see on a regular schedule. A gutter guard that has to be lifted and reseated, siding that needs protecting during the work, oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site each move the quote as well. 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 dates are set a season ahead.
To quote a San Ramon property we need the address or site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. A property manager or facilities lead sends us those five things, and we come back with a per-building number in writing. Our gutter cleaning service is set up for commercial buildings that need clog clearing, downspouts checked and the gutter system flow-tested before we leave, with a final inspection on the building before we close the job. Whether you are comparing gutter cleaners or pricing a home or business with several buildings, the quote is written for the property you have.
| 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.
Most San Ramon properties we service are on two cleanings a year, spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees on quarterly. The managers who call us after a storm are usually the ones who skipped the last visit, so we look at the storm season and what the post-storm inspections turn up when we set the dates.
On a flat roof the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. We see this on restaurants most of all: what we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease, food debris and grit that never gets a rain to wash it off.
Our cleaning services and cleaning solutions for commercial sites are set around the property rather than a fixed template, and our gutter cleaning process is the same on every building: clear the runs, flush every downspout, check the drains, and photograph the result. Each visit is part of gutter cleaning and maintenance, and each one is a thorough cleaning that keeps the water off the roof and away from the walls. Water damage on a commercial building usually starts at a blockage nobody saw, so we give every site the same attention whether it is a single store or a multi-building campus. Property managers who need us to provide gutter cleaning on a fixed calendar tell us the dates they need, and we offer scheduled dates that match each building's gutter cleaning needs. Homeowners and businesses both get the same crew, and we also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners.
| 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 professional gutter cleaning services for commercial and residential properties across the San Ramon service area and the surrounding areas, and we handle multi-building portfolios and multi-site accounts the same way. Each property gets a written quote and a scheduled date, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival so the work is timed around tenant hours where that is asked for.
For a property manager with several buildings, you get one contact for all of them. A date is confirmed in writing, and the photo report for each building goes to the same inbox. We run a clean gutter company operation for commercial properties, which means the same crew, the same checklist and the same invoice format on every building in the portfolio. Our residential gutter work follows the same method for every homeowner on single-family and multi-unit homes, and our landscape crews work around the building's grounds so nothing gets tracked into the lobby.
Gutter maintenance between visits is part of how we keep a site clean, and a blocked run is the usual reason a building that looks fine from the parking lot starts to leak. A gutter that is full of debris can cause roof leaks at the edge where the membrane meets the drain, so a thorough cleaning includes checking those points on every visit. To schedule a building or a portfolio, call (866) 435-6328 and we will put the dates on the calendar.
We price per building, and the number depends on linear footage, height, gutter type and how much debris is in the system. The figure comes in writing for each building before we are dispatched, so you know the total before the crew arrives.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, and if it is unclear, ask the attorney who drafted it. We write the invoice to whichever party the lease names. This is not legal advice.
On the restaurant and flat-roof properties we service, quarterly is the schedule that holds. Grease and grit build up faster on a restaurant, and internal drains on a flat roof back up without warning, so the shorter interval keeps the membrane dry.
Yes, on residential and commercial buildings alike. We work from a boom or scissor lift with fall protection on every job above three stories. Tell us the height when you request the quote so the right lift is on site.
Yes. We schedule around the hours you set and follow the access rules for the site. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival and keeps the work area clear of walkways.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs along with the gutters and downspouts, and we flush the downspouts to confirm the flow. Anything we find that needs repair, including damaged gutter protection, is photographed and noted in the report.
After a severe storm, the post-storm calls usually turn up debris packed into runs and downspouts that were already partly blocked. We schedule those visits quickly and photograph every run so you have a record of the condition, and clearing them before the next storm is how you protect your home from overflow.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice, and a recurring schedule can cover every property in the portfolio. Ask for a written estimate, the same way you would from any gutter cleaners you are comparing, and we will set the dates for the whole year. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the roofline to book a date.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
