We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning in Bloomington per building, priced from each building's footprint and height. Fall protection or a boom or scissor lift goes on every job, and you get a photo report when we finish.
Our crew is ours and scheduled. We are not a roofer's side job squeezed between re-roofs, so the person who quotes the building is the person who climbs it.
Across Indiana we book the spring and fall visits our property managers rely on, and we pick up storm call-outs when a building needs them.
Quoted per building from footage, height and gutter type, in writing, before anyone is dispatched. Scheduled service costs less than a call-out.
Every job we quote on a commercial building is priced per building, from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, after we have a site plan or a satellite measurement. Nobody gets dispatched until the number is on paper.
Height is the first thing that moves a quote. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift and set up fall protection, and that setup is priced in. Compacted debris is the second. A clog that has sat for years, or a clogged gutter that backs up along its whole run, takes longer to clear than one on a regular schedule, and the gutter cleaning process on it is slower than a maintenance pass. Water backing up in the trough can overflow onto the fascia and siding. Any gutter guard or other gutter protection on the gutter system has to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the trough. Oversized and box gutters take more time per linear foot. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs get checked and cleared on the same visit, and the number of buildings on one site changes how we set up the day.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building. We do not bill them as extras, and a clear run is how we protect your home from water backing up at the eave. A scheduled semi-annual or quarterly plan is priced below a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building and the footage is on file.
On a Bloomington commercial job, the quote comes from the same information every time: address or site plan, stories, roof type, number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Send us a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which of those we still need. Share your gutter cleaning needs by phone or email: call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate, and the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
We keep every property's record in one place, so when a building comes back in season we already know what the last visit cost to do right. A thorough gutter cleaning on a property we have seen before is faster and easier to plan, because a thorough cleaning starts from the last visit's photos. A first visit with no history takes a little more time while we measure and photograph everything. That is the honest difference, and it is why we ask for the site plan before we commit to a date.
| 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.
On the Bloomington properties we service, most are on twice a year, spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover run on a quarterly schedule.
What we pull out of these buildings tells us the timing. The storm season across Indiana brings the post-storm inspections our managers call us for, and those visits often turn up a pulled hanger or a split seam we photograph and put in the report. The leaves and the pollen load the gutters every spring and fall, so those are the two windows the standard buildings get cleaned in.
Flat roofs need more attention than the calendar suggests. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, sometimes a leak. With about 49.4 inches of precipitation a year, and April, May and June the wettest months, a backed-up drain gets tested hard in spring. That is why the monthly check between cleanings is part of our gutter maintenance on the buildings that need it.
A residential and commercial mix on the same account is set up the same way: one schedule, one invoice per building, and the crew logs which property is on which visit. Whether it is a home or business, gutter cleaning and maintenance run on that same calendar. Many of the managers who book us for a single site end up with a recurring plan across several, and the cleaning services and the cleaning process stay the same from one building to the next.
Plenty of gutter cleaners book one visit a year and call it done. We run the cleaning solutions that fit each roof and leave a final inspection note on every visit, so the next crew knows what the last one found.
| 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.
Our professional gutter cleaning services cover commercial properties across Bloomington. We provide gutter cleaning in the business districts and corridors where we have serviced buildings before, and we serve homeowners and businesses alike. For the homeowner with a single-family house, the same crew does residential gutter work, and a property manager gets the same standard for a commercial building. That keeps commercial and residential properties on one crew and one written process.
Our service area is Bloomington and the surrounding areas, and a multi-building portfolio gets one point of contact with us. You get one date confirmed in writing for each site, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. If the tenants need quiet hours or the access has to be timed around a loading dock, tell us and we plan the day around that. Lead time depends on the season and the size of the job, so we give you a real date rather than a promise we cannot keep.
We offer gutter cleaning on a per-building basis, so a manager with a school, a retail strip and an office on the same account gets three clear invoices with the footage on each. That keeps the budget readable for the board and the owner.
We also clean gutters on the single-family homes and small multifamily buildings that share a block with commercial properties, which is how many of our referrals start. A blockage in a downspout on one building is usually the same problem on the next, and leaves from the landscape beds along the wall are often the cause. Our crew catches it on both before water damage reaches the wall. To get started, call (866) 435-6328, text a photo of the roofline, or ask us to book a date, and we will tell you what we still need for the quote.
We quote per building, and the number depends on linear footage, height and gutter type. Per-linear-foot figures from other gutter cleaning companies land in a similar place, but we put our number in writing for each building before anyone is dispatched.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, and see the lease-type breakdown above for how each arrangement usually reads. This is general information, not legal advice, so ask the attorney who drafted it if the clause is unclear.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service in Bloomington, quarterly cleanings keep the internal drains and scuppers clear. Between visits we check the parapets, because the first sign of trouble is usually a stained ceiling tile.
Yes. On commercial buildings above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift and set up fall protection before anyone goes up. The lift is matched to the roofline, and we confirm the setup with you when we write the quote.
Yes. Tell us the tenant hours or the access rules when you send the site plan, and we schedule the crew around them. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact when they arrive.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs on the same visit as the gutters. A blocked scupper can cause roof leaks, so anything we find that needs repair is photographed and reported, not repaired without your authorization.
Storm call-outs turn up pulled hangers, split seams and debris packed into downspouts. We photograph each one and send you the report, and we schedule the cleaning once you approve the work.
Yes. As a gutter company that runs its own crew, we bill each building separately with the footage shown, and a recurring schedule covers all of your properties under one contact. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate to set one up.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
