We quote every commercial building in Melbourne on its own, priced from the footprint and height of each roofline. Our own scheduled crew does the work with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job, and you get a photo report of every run afterward. We are not a roofer's side job between re-roofs; we clean gutters, and that is what the crew is booked for. Across Florida, property managers book us in spring and late fall, when the rains and the leaf drop have done their damage.
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 jobs per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Every quote is a number we commit to, and it is the number on the invoice. The same method covers residential and commercial work, whether the job is at a home or business, so a homeowner with a single house gets one figure and a property manager gets one per roofline.
Height is the biggest mover. Above three stories the job needs a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup that goes with it, and that time is priced in. Compacted debris on a gutter system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer than a maintained one, so a first visit on a neglected building is quoted with that in mind. A gutter guard or other gutter protection that has to be lifted and reseated adds time, and so do oversized or box gutters and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs. The number of buildings on one site matters too, because a campus is quoted as one visit with a per-building line for each roofline. 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.
On a Melbourne job, the quote starts with the same questions every time: address or site plan, stories, roof type, number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. A recent commercial site in the city needed a lift on its taller block, a flat roof with internal drains, and a full clean on the lower building's drains and gutter runs; what we found in the drains set the time, and the quote was written before we dispatched (see this job).
Cleaning services for commercial buildings are priced by the crew that will do the work, and the cleaning process is the same whether the building is a strip plaza or a three-story office. A thorough cleaning of every run and drain is part of the price, cleaning solutions included, and so is the final inspection before we leave, with the photos going to whoever signs the invoice. Gutter cleaners and gutter cleaning companies quote differently, so compare the scope line by line before you sign.
| 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.
Across Florida, most of the properties we service are on twice a year, with the spring visit landing mid to late April and the fall visit in November to December. In Melbourne, the restaurants, the flat roofs with internal drains and the buildings with heavy tree cover are on quarterly, because their gutter cleaning needs are heavier and the load builds faster.
Our crews see grease and grit packed into restaurant runs every second month, and that is the build-up professional gutter cleaning services have to clear on a kitchen building. The hurricane season and the rain that comes with it load everything in June through September, and the managers who call us after a storm are usually calling about a run that started to overflow or a downspout that stopped. Residential gutter work runs on a similar rhythm, and we serve homeowners and businesses alike, but a commercial roofline with a lot of drainage area asks for more frequent visits. On a site with a landscape bed or a parking lot draining toward the building, the blockage tends to come from the ground up, and water that overflows the run can run down the siding.
Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister. That check between cleanings is part of our gutter cleaning and maintenance schedule, and it is why we photograph each drain on every visit, not only the ones that look bad. Melbourne gets 50.8 inches of rain a year, with June, August and September the wettest months, and a flat roof with a blocked drain can stand water long enough to cause roof leaks and water damage below.
| 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 clean gutters on commercial properties across Melbourne's commercial core and the surrounding areas, from the older strip plazas along the main corridors to the newer office and medical buildings in the business parks. Our crew is booked by property, and the properties we have serviced in the city are the ones that come up when a manager asks where we have been.
For a property manager with several buildings, scheduling runs through one contact. A date is confirmed in writing for every building on the list, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival so no one is surprised by a ladder in the parking lot. The gutter cleaning process runs the same way on every building: check-in, fall protection set up, then the runs and drains in order. Where the tenants want work done around business hours, we time it that way. Lead time across our service area depends on the season and the number of buildings, so we give you a date rather than promising one on the spot. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will book a date for every building on the list.
A gutter company that handles commercial and residential properties in the same market knows the difference between the two. We run the same gutter maintenance on both, with a clogged gutter treated the same way wherever it sits, because a leak that starts at a gutter can cause roof leaks in the space below no matter the building class. We also do residential gutter work for homeowners, and we keep the commercial schedule separate from the residential one so a board or a facilities lead gets a clean invoice per building.
We quote per building, and the number depends on the linear footage, the height and the gutter type, all of which we measure before the visit. Some companies price per linear foot, but on our jobs the quote comes out as one figure per building, in writing, before anyone is dispatched.
The lease decides, not us. The lease type and its maintenance clause set who receives the invoice, and the section above on who pays walks through the common lease types. This is not legal advice, so read your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service in Melbourne, quarterly is the schedule that keeps the drains clear. The grease, grit and standing water build up faster on those buildings than on a standard two-story office.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift with fall protection set up before the first run is opened, and that is what a thorough clean takes at that height. The lift is matched to the roofline, and the setup is part of the quote.
Yes. Tell us the tenant hours and any access rules and we schedule around them. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival and keeps the work area clear of the parking lot and walkways.
Both: roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs get cleared of debris and their strainer domes reseated, each drain is photographed for the report, and anything that needs repair is described rather than fixed without your authorization.
Across Florida, hurricane season is when the calls come in, and after a storm we get calls about runs that overflowed and downspouts that stopped. The post-storm inspection usually finds debris packed into the downspout elbows and a few hangers that pulled loose, and we photograph each one for the report. A clog found after the storm is quoted on the same per-building basis, and clearing it is part of a thorough gutter cleaning that helps protect your home.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice with the linear footage shown, and a recurring schedule can cover every property on the list under one contact. Semi-annual and quarterly plans are priced for the buildings they cover, so set one up by calling (866) 435-6328 or emailing us a list of addresses.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
