We quote each commercial building in Fort Collins separately, priced from the footprint and height of each roofline, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job and a photo report when we are done. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We book spring and fall visits for offices, retail and multifamily properties across Colorado, and we handle one building or a whole portfolio on the same 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 building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement before any gutter cleaning service is dispatched. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will send the written estimate. The same method covers residential and commercial properties alike, and each job closes with a final inspection before the crew leaves.
Height is the biggest single factor. Anything above three stories 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 and is quoted for the extra time, and a clog that has built up for seasons is priced as a clog, not as routine cleaning. A gutter guard has to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Oversized or box gutters take more material per foot, the siding below a run gets checked for staining from overflow, and flat roofs with roof drains and scuppers add their own clearing time. The number of buildings on one site is priced as one visit, which lowers the per-building cost. 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 booked a season ahead. Per-building pricing also gives owners one number to budget, instead of the per-foot figure some gutter cleaning companies quote.
On properties we have cleaned for property managers, the quote came down to stories, roof type, number of buildings and what the crew found on the first walk, including the condition of the whole gutter system. Gutter cleaners comparing bids should ask for the same list. We need the address or site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, whether it is a home or business, and who the invoice goes to, and we will return a written estimate from those. Any cleaning solutions a roof needs appear as a line item in that estimate before work starts.
| 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 Fort Collins 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 Colorado, spring visits run late May to June, and fall visits in Fort Collins run October to early November. The cleaning services we run follow the same cleaning process on every property, and the schedule is set by what we find on the roof, not by a rule of thumb. Spring pulls seed and pollen paste into the downspout elbows, and the post-storm inspections after hail season turn up dented runs and shingle grit washed into the gutters, which can lead to water damage if it sits. Late fall brings the wet leaf mat, and runs that skipped the fall visit sag under the first snow load and can overflow when the thaw comes.
On flat roofs, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without any warning, and a clog at a drain can overflow onto the membrane before anyone sees it. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. On restaurant properties the grease and debris build faster, so the crew comes back every second month. Our professional gutter cleaning services are scheduled around that pattern. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on that basis for homeowners and businesses alike, and we provide gutter cleaning for each building on the same schedule logic. A homeowner with a similar roof would see the same blockage on a smaller scale. Tell us your gutter cleaning needs by phone or text: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roof, and we will set the schedule.
| 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 run professional gutter cleaning for commercial and residential properties across the Fort Collins service area and the surrounding areas we already cover on the same route. The business districts we have worked include the corridors and business parks where our crews have serviced properties. Every visit follows the same gutter cleaning process, from the first walk to the photo report, and the goal is clean gutters on every run, not only the ones visible from the parking lot. Scheduling for a property manager works through one contact for every building in the portfolio. A date is confirmed in writing, our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival, and work is timed around tenant hours where that is asked for. Lead time depends on the season and the size of the site, so we give the date when we quote rather than promising a slot. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners, and the same crew handles a landscape-heavy site or a small residential gutter run on the same route. Our gutter maintenance schedules are built per property, so a multi-site portfolio gets one invoice per building and one calendar, with one gutter company answering for every building. Where a roof shows a fault that cleaning will not fix, the crew reports it and does not drive the next step, because a clogged run that still overflows after cleaning can cause roof leaks on its own, and the report tells you which one you are dealing with. If a run is clean and still leaks at a seam, that goes in the report too.
We quote per building, and the number depends on linear footage, stories and gutter type. Each way of pricing carries its own variables, so the figure comes to you in writing for each building before we are dispatched. Quotes for commercial properties and homes follow the same method, and a home or business gets a final inspection after the thorough cleaning.
The lease decides, so check the maintenance clause in yours first, and the attorney who drafted it can confirm the wording. Tell us who the invoice goes to and we will write it there.
On the restaurants and flat-roof buildings we service, quarterly is the schedule that keeps internal drains clear, because grease and debris build faster than on a standard building. Between cleanings a monthly check catches the early signs of a clogged gutter, a leak or an overflow before it reaches a ceiling.
Yes. Above three stories the job is done from a boom or scissor lift with fall protection set up on every run. The lift is matched to the building, and we confirm the setup when we quote.
Yes. Tell us the tenant hours and access rules for your commercial properties when you book, and the crew works to them. We check in with the on-site contact on arrival so nobody is surprised by a lift in the parking lot.
We clear the gutters, downspouts, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as part of the same visit, and the strainer domes are reseated afterward. Anything beyond clearing, including any gutter protection repair, is reported with photos, not repaired.
Hail season across Colorado dents gutters and washes shingle grit into the runs, so after a storm we inspect and do a thorough gutter cleaning on every affected run in Fort Collins and the surrounding areas. Managers who call us after a storm usually find the grit has already reached the downspouts, and we report each run.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice with the linear footage shown, and a recurring schedule sets the dates for all of them on one calendar. Our service area covers Fort Collins and the surrounding areas, and a single-building owner gets the same thorough cleaning, which helps protect your home from water damage. Call (866) 435-6328 or book a date and we will set it up.
