We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning in The Villages per building, from the footprint and height of each one. Fall protection or a boom or scissor lift goes on every job, and you get a photo report when we leave. We are a gutter company with a crew scheduled for this work, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We service office, retail and multifamily buildings across Florida, most often in spring and late fall.
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 every gutter cleaning service per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Height is the biggest factor on our jobs. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift, and fall protection is set up before the first run is cleared. Gutters that have gone years without cleaning arrive packed with compacted debris, which takes longer than a light seasonal load. A gutter guard has to be lifted and reseated before the gutter can be reached. Oversized box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs and the number of buildings on one site all change the time on the roof.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are part of every thorough cleaning and are included per building, not billed as extras. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew knows the building and the footage is already measured. A gutter that still has overflow after cleaning usually has a slope problem, and water running down the siding is what we point out in the report instead of selling a second cleaning. Across the commercial properties we work on, the clog that causes the most trouble is a downspout that backs up onto a walkway, and it is found in the first visit more often than not. We send a written quote that lists every building, the lift needed and the cleaning steps, so the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
On a recent job, a three-story office building in The Villages had a flat roof with internal drains and two downspouts discharging onto a walkway. The quote was set by the stories, the lift, the number of drains and what we found on the roof, all listed in the written estimate. We need the address or a site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to before we can quote a The Villages property.
| 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 of the commercial properties we service in The Villages are on twice a year, spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees go on quarterly as part of gutter maintenance. On the restaurant gutters we clean, grease film and fryer-vent residue build up faster than any leaf load, so those sites are on the calendar every three months. The cleaning services we schedule for each property type follow what we pull out of the gutters on the last visit, not a standard template. Across Florida, the storm and hurricane season is when the post-storm inspections turn up debris and loosened hangers, and the managers who call us after a storm are usually the ones who skipped a fall visit.
On a flat roof, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile, a membrane blister or a leak, and water damage to the ceiling is usually what comes next, which is why we check the drains monthly between cleanings. For a building with a standard gutter system, the gutter cleaning process is the same each visit: clear the runs, flush every downspout, check the outlets and photograph each section. A single final inspection before we leave confirms the flow, and that is what goes into the report that goes to the property manager. Many of the gutter cleaning companies a manager calls only handle one property type, and we are set up for residential and commercial portfolios alike, so one schedule can cover a standard office, a restaurant and a warehouse. Our gutter cleaners work from the same checklist on every property, which keeps the schedules consistent across buildings. On restaurant gutters the crew also brings cleaning solutions for the grease film, so those visits are scheduled with that in mind.
| 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 Villages and the surrounding areas, including office parks, retail strips and multifamily complexes. For a portfolio spread over several buildings, one contact handles every property anywhere in our service area, and a date is confirmed in writing before anyone is dispatched. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival and times the work around tenant hours where asked, and keeps clear of the landscape beds and walkways. Residential gutter service is available for the homeowner who also manages a rental, so we also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses on the same schedule, and regular service helps protect your home from water at the eaves. A thorough gutter cleaning clears any blockage that has built up on a site before the flow test, and any gutter protection is put back in place, so the drainage is confirmed at the end of each visit. Whatever your gutter cleaning needs, whether it is one building or a full site, we offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on the same invoice, with the building list and footage shown, so the property manager can check the charges line by line. To book a date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will send the written quote.
We price per building, and the number comes in writing for each one. The price depends on the linear footage, the height, the gutter type and the number of downspouts. Per linear foot is one way to compare it, but the building's height and access are what move the number most.
The lease decides, not state law. The maintenance clause tells you whether the tenant or the landlord is responsible, and the lease types are laid out in the section above. This is not legal advice, so read the clause or ask the attorney who drafted it.
Restaurants and flat roofs with internal drains go on quarterly on our schedule. The grease film in a restaurant gutter and the drain backups on a flat roof are what we see most often, and a clogged gutter on a flat roof can cause roof leaks before anyone notices.
Yes. We provide gutter cleaning for commercial buildings above three stories, with fall protection and a boom or scissor lift. The lift size is confirmed for each building before the crew is scheduled.
Yes. We time the work around tenant hours and follow the access rules the property manager gives us. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs along with the gutters, and we report anything else we find, such as a loose strainer dome or a cracked scupper, in the photo report. What to do about it is up to you.
Across Florida, the post-storm call-outs we handle most often turn up debris in the downspouts and hangers that have pulled loose. We inspect the runs, clear the debris and send photos of anything that needs attention.
Yes. We invoice per building and set up a recurring schedule for several properties on one contact and one written calendar, whether it is a home or business. The invoice lists each building, so the owner or board can check it directly. Text a photo of the roofline or call (866) 435-6328 to start.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
