We quote commercial gutter cleaning per building, 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 the roof, and you get a photo report of every run after we leave.
We are the crew that does the cleaning, scheduled on a fixed calendar, not a roofer fitting gutters in between re-roofs. Most of our work is on properties that need a predictable service rather than a one-off emergency call.
Across California, we book most commercial properties for spring and late fall, when leaf and seed loads are heaviest and property managers want the work done before the next busy season.
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. Our cleaning services and the cleaning process behind them come down to what the building actually needs, and every quote is written before the work is scheduled. Property managers comparing gutter cleaners or gutter cleaning companies should ask for the figure per building, not one total for the site.
Height is the largest single factor. Above three stories the job needs a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup that goes with it. Compacted debris on a system not cleaned in years takes longer to clear than routine leaf fall, and a gutter guard that must be lifted and reseated adds labor on each run. The gutter system matters too: oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all move the quote. Downspout flushing, cleaning solutions and debris haul-off are included per building and are not billed as extras, and scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call.
Across California, residential and commercial properties are quoted the same way: we need the address or site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Send those for any home or business and we will write the number up for your West Covina property, so a homeowner with one house gets the same written quote as a manager with a site. Every quote goes through a final inspection by a crew lead before the job is confirmed, so the number we give you is the number on the invoice. Our crew works from that same plan for every property in West Covina. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will write the number for your 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.
Most West Covina properties we service are on twice a year, spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover on quarterly. Professional gutter cleaning on a set interval keeps pace with what the building drops into its gutters, and your gutter cleaning needs set that interval building by building.
What we find on these properties after a storm is what drives the schedule: the heavy rain days we get each winter push grit and debris into the downspouts, and the managers who call us after a storm usually want the runs cleared before the next event. Spring brings seed and pollen, and fall brings the leaf mat. A property with a landscape bed or planted strip along the wall sees more of both. A residential gutter on a house sees the same loads, but commercial roofs are larger and their drains clog faster.
On flat roofs we see parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently. The first thing the tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. Our crew looks at the drains and the scuppers on every visit and flags anything that is starting to hold water. Those checks are part of how we run every property, so the schedule follows what the roof actually does rather than a fixed calendar.
When gutters go too long without service, water damage is the usual outcome: overflow runs down the fascia, soaks the siding below, and eventually reaches the framing. A blockage that sits through a wet season costs more to fix than a clean every few months, and the offer gutter cleaning on a schedule is the cheaper path. Our crew handles gutter cleaning and maintenance on the schedule the property needs, not the one we would prefer.
| 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.
West Covina is our main service area. We work across the commercial districts, and we have serviced properties in the corridors and business parks that the property records we work from list for this city. Whether the site is a single office building or a portfolio of several, the scheduling runs through one contact. You send one request, we confirm the date in writing, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. We also take jobs in the surrounding areas, where the same quote and schedule apply.
For properties with tenants, we time the work around tenant hours where asked, and we coordinate access before the crew is on the roof. A clogged gutter that has been overflowing onto a walkway is handled first if the manager flags it, because a leak down a wall is how overflow from a clogged gutter can cause roof leaks and interior damage. The gutter cleaning process on a multi-building site runs building by building, with a separate invoice for each from our professional gutter cleaning services so that accounts payable can match the work to the property.
We cover commercial buildings and commercial and residential properties on the same schedule, so a property manager with a mixed portfolio gets one gutter company for all of it. The same crew serves homeowners and businesses, and the scheduling is identical either way. Our commitment to clean gutters across the portfolio is the same whether it is one building or ten. We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners in West Covina, and we provide gutter cleaning on the same crew. To book a date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will confirm the schedule in writing.
Commercial gutter cleaning is priced per building, and the number depends on linear footage, height and gutter type. We do not quote a figure or a range here; you get the number in writing for each building after we measure it.
The lease decides who pays for gutter cleaning, not state law. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, which is set out by lease type in the section above, and send us the invoice party so the bill goes to the right office. This is not legal advice.
Restaurants and flat-roof buildings in West Covina are usually on quarterly service. Restaurant kitchens and buildings with internal drains tend to clog sooner than most, so a quarterly visit suits them better.
Yes. We clean gutters on buildings over three stories with a boom or scissor lift and fall-protection rigging on every job. The setup is confirmed for each property before we are scheduled.
Yes. Our crew works around tenant hours and site access rules, and we confirm the access plan in writing before the first visit.
Thorough cleaning on a flat roof means clearing roof drains and scuppers in addition to the gutters, so we flush the downspouts and check the outlets on every building as part of a thorough gutter cleaning. Gutter protection is not part of the cleaning scope, but we note where a guard would help.
After a severe storm in West Covina, the post-storm call-outs most often turn up debris packed into the downspouts and runs that have pulled off their hangers. We photograph each run and send the report to the property manager. Scheduled cleaning is the simplest way to protect your home or business from that kind of overflow.
Yes. We invoice per building and set up a recurring schedule for several properties on one contact, with a separate invoice for each site so the accounts match.
