We quote commercial work per building in Pocatello, priced from each building's 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 around your building, not a roofer's side job squeezed between re-roofs. We work through the spring and fall visits your property needs, and we keep one contact for every building you manage so the invoice and the schedule stay in one place. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will book a date once the written quote is approved.
Quoted per building from footage, height and gutter type, in writing, before anyone is dispatched. Scheduled service costs less than a call-out.
This service quotes each commercial building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Nothing goes on the schedule until you have the number.
Height is the biggest driver on our jobs. Anything above three stories means a boom or scissor lift and a fall-protection setup under the rules, which changes the crew size and the time on site. Compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer to clear than a run we see every six months, and one stubborn clog at a low point adds time to the job. A gutter guard that has to be lifted and reseated, oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all move the quote. Choosing the right cleaning solutions for a stained run is part of the on-site assessment, and water that overshoots a bad run can stain the siding below. 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 gutter system and the footage is measured.
On our Pocatello jobs, the quote that surprised a property manager most was a three-building site where the gutters had been skipped for two seasons. The buildings were on one invoice, the debris came out in one haul, and the photo report showed two downspouts discharging onto a walkway with no splash blocks. For a property like that, what set the quote was the stories, the roof type and the compacted load in the runs, in the words we wrote in the report. The job is at its own link below.
Outside Pocatello, or for a property we have not seen, whether it is a home or business, what we need to quote it is short: the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. We quote residential and commercial buildings the same way, and other gutter cleaners and gutter cleaning companies often price by the roofline alone, which misses the stories and the lift. Send those and we will write the price for each building and tell you what the final inspection covers before we start.
| 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 cleaning services we run in Pocatello are on a twice-a-year schedule, spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees on quarterly. Across Idaho, the spring visit usually falls in late May to June, and the fall visit in Pocatello lands in October to early November.
What we pull out of these gutters is a function of the season. Pocatello gets 13.0 inches of precipitation a year, and the wettest months, March, April and May, push water and debris into the outlets along with the seed and pollen packed into the downspout elbows in spring. Late fall brings the wet leaf mat that sags runs under the first hard freeze. Pocatello has a freeze risk, and snow arrives from January through April and again in November and December, 29.7 inches a year in all, so an overflow is harder to catch before it does damage. The homeowner who calls after a storm usually finds the same thing: debris pushed into the outlets and a run that overflows at one low point. Across Idaho, storm season comes in with Pacific fronts, and that is when a clog or a blockage shows up first.
Flat roofs behave differently. A blockage on a flat roof can cause roof leaks that show up inside the building as water damage, and parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. A flat roof that drains into the building can hold water for days before anyone sees the leak.
One standard building is on twice a year. One restaurant is on quarterly, because grease and food debris build up in the runs faster than a standard lot. Our professional gutter cleaning services run on both schedules, and the gutter cleaning needs of a standard building and a restaurant are not the same. Homeowners and businesses get the same cleaning process, but we set the interval from the building, not the calendar, as part of gutter cleaning and maintenance. Each job's photo report is linked from the case list below. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will book a date for the spring or fall visit.
| 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 services across the business districts and corridors of Pocatello where we have serviced properties, and we handle the same gutter cleaning process for a property manager with buildings in more than one place. If a building sits in the surrounding areas, ask us first, because the service area and the travel time are set per property. You get one contact for every building, a date confirmed in writing, and a crew that checks in with the on-site contact when it arrives. Where a tenant needs quiet hours or a particular entry, we time the work around them. Any debris that lands in the landscape beds under the downspouts gets bagged out with the rest.
Lead time depends on the size of the portfolio and the season, so we give a date when we have one and do not promise it sooner. For a property with several buildings, we set one schedule, one invoice per building and one report that covers the whole site, so the facilities lead is not chasing three separate vendors. We provide gutter cleaning on the same terms for each building, and gutter maintenance across a portfolio works the same way whether the buildings are commercial and residential properties or a mix of both. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the site, and we will book a date in writing.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses in the same area, and the same crew runs both. That is a cross-reference only: this page is about commercial buildings. Clean gutters on a house and clean gutters on a commercial roof are not the same job, and a gutter company that works on both knows the rules of each.
We price per building, but the number is built from the linear footage, the height and the gutter type, so both ways of counting feed into the same quote. A thorough gutter cleaning is in that figure, not added at the end. We write the figure for each building in advance, and nothing is added after the crew arrives. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will walk through what your buildings need.
The lease decides, not the habitability rules that apply to apartments. The section above sets out who usually pays under each lease type, and we write the invoice 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.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service, quarterly is the schedule that holds. Grease and debris build up in the runs faster than a standard lot, and a clogged gutter on a flat roof backs up without warning. Text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which schedule your building fits.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift with a fall-protection setup, and we bring whatever lift the roofline needs. That is the setup for commercial properties with tall rooflines, and the lift and crew size go into the written quote for that building.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours and entry rules you give us, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Ask for a written estimate that lists those access conditions, so the thorough cleaning starts on the right day.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as part of the job, along with the gutters. A drain blocked by debris can cause roof leaks, and we photograph anything else we find without repairing it unless you authorize the work. Gutter protection is a separate job and is not part of the cleaning quote.
After a storm, the post-storm call-outs usually turn up debris pushed into the outlets and runs that overflow at one low point, which is the first sign of water damage. Across Idaho, storm season comes in with Pacific fronts, so a check after the first big front helps protect your home or business. Book a date with us and we will inspect each building and report what we find in writing.
Yes. We invoice per building and set one recurring schedule across a portfolio, with a single contact and one report for the site. We offer gutter cleaning on that schedule and tailor it to your needs. If a property sits outside the city, check its service area with us first, since the surrounding areas are quoted property by property. Call (866) 435-6328 to set up the schedule, or ask for a written estimate for each property.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
