We quote each commercial building in Commerce City on its own, priced from its footprint and height, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job and a photo report when we finish. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We work across Colorado on office, retail and multifamily properties, and spring and late fall are when most property managers book us.
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 building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Some gutter cleaning companies quote one price per house, but every building here gets its own starting price from the rate panel above and a quote confirmed in writing.
Height is the first thing that moves a quote. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift and set fall protection before the crew climbs, and that setup costs time on site. Compacted debris, or a blockage that has sat for years, takes longer to clear than a seasonal load, and any gutter guard has to be lifted and reseated on every run. Oversized or box gutters take more time per linear foot, and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs need to be cleared as well as the gutters. The number of buildings on one site matters too, because a cluster of buildings is one mobilization.
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 measured. Every gutter cleaning service we run starts with a clog check, and gutter protection, where the building has it, gets checked at the same time.
On a multi-story office or a retail strip, the clog is usually at the downspout elbow, and a clogged gutter that looks clear from the ground often is not. A downspout that is holding water back will overflow at the lowest joint, and that overflow can reach the siding, the parapet or the surrounding areas and cause water damage. A thorough gutter cleaning clears the runs and flushes every downspout until it runs clear, then the crew photographs the result. Protect your home is not the subject of a commercial quote, but protecting the building is, and that is why we check the outlets.
For a recent job on a mid-rise multifamily property in Commerce City, what set the quote was four stories, a built-up roof with internal drains, and a run of guards that had to come off and go back on. The number of buildings on the site was three, and the owner wanted one invoice. The crew found standing water at two drains and photographed both in the report. The full case is linked from our job list.
To get a number for your building, we need the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. A quote for a commercial property in this service area goes out in writing once we have those five things, and a crew can book a date after you approve it.
| Per building | |
|---|---|
| Standard, one to two stories | from $150 |
| Oversized box or industrial gutters | from $295 |
| Three stories and up, with a lift | from $395 |
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 commercial properties we service in Commerce City are on twice a year, in spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover are on quarterly. The cleaning services we schedule follow the property type, and gutter maintenance is planned around the standard intervals for each.
Across Colorado, hail season dents gutters and washes shingle grit into the runs, and the managers who call us after a storm usually want the runs inspected before anything else. Spring is when the pollen and seed load from the landscape packs the elbows on residential and commercial buildings alike, and late fall is when the wet leaf mat sits in the gutters until the first hard freeze.
On the properties we service, the gutter cleaning process is the same at every visit: clear the runs, flush every downspout, check the outlets, photograph each run. Clean gutters that drain properly will show their water flow at the outlet, and that is the test we use before we leave. Some managers ask for a final inspection of the building after the crew has finished, and we do that from the ground or the lift, depending on height.
Flat roofs are a different problem. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and a blocked drain can cause roof leaks before a tenant notices a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister. That is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on flat-roof properties, and why we report what we see rather than waiting for the leak.
A restaurant on a quarterly schedule is a good example of how the rhythm works. Grease and food debris build up faster than leaves, so the crew clears the runs and the downspouts on every visit and notes the condition of each outlet in the report. The property manager gets the same photo set each time, and the report notes which cleaning solutions were used on grease-heavy runs, which makes it easy to see when something is getting worse.
| 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.
For commercial properties across Commerce City, we provide gutter cleaning, including business districts and corridors where we have already serviced buildings, and every job is run by our own professional crew. The neighborhood list in our service area is kept current, and any district not on it can be confirmed when you call. Our crew also does residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses, and a single homeowner gets the same photo report and written schedule as a property manager. We serve commercial and residential properties on the same schedule, but this page is about commercial buildings.
For a property manager with several buildings, scheduling runs through one contact. A date is confirmed in writing before the crew arrives, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact when they pull in. Where tenants need quiet hours or access is restricted, we time the work around them. Lead time depends on the portfolio and the season, so we give you a date instead of promising one on the spot.
We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a single visit or on a schedule, and most portfolio clients want the schedule because it keeps one invoice per building on a fixed calendar. Our professional gutter cleaning services run the same way either way. If you have gutter cleaning needs across several sites, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to book a date, and one call sets the whole list up with its own quote and photo report for each building.
A commercial job is quoted per building. Our crew measures the linear footage, the height and the gutter type, and the number is written before anyone is dispatched. The price depends on those three things and on what is in the gutters, so the number comes in writing for each building. A quote built for a single home does not carry over, so anyone comparing a gutter company or gutter cleaners should ask for that same breakdown.
Who pays for exterior cleaning on a commercial lease depends on the lease itself, so the lease decides. The lease types and what they usually mean are set out in the section above, and we write invoices to whichever party the lease names. This is not legal advice, so read the maintenance clause of your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it.
A restaurant or a flat-roof building in Commerce City usually goes on quarterly, because grease and parapet debris build up faster than leaves. We set the frequency from what we find on the first visit, and the report tells you when the next one is due.
Yes, we clean gutters on buildings over three stories. The crew works from a boom or scissor lift with fall protection set up before anyone climbs, and the lift is matched to the building. Call (866) 435-6328 to confirm the setup for your roofline before the date is booked.
Yes, we work around tenant hours and on-site access rules. We confirm the access plan with the on-site contact before the crew arrives, and we ask for the hours in writing so the schedule matches the building.
Yes, we clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as well as the gutters. Those are included per building, and any problem we find, such as a cracked scupper or a pulled hanger, is photographed and reported rather than repaired without authorization.
After a severe storm, the post-storm call-outs in Commerce City usually turn up hail grit in the runs, bent downspout elbows and debris packed against the outlets. Across Colorado, hail season is when most of those calls come in. We inspect the runs and send photos before anything else.
Yes, we invoice per building and set up a recurring schedule for several properties. One contact covers the whole list, whether a site is a home or business, and a homeowner with one property gets the same photo report and written schedule. Text a photo of the roofline to start, or ask for a written estimate and book a date.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
