We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning 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 of every run afterward. Our crew is ours and scheduled around your property, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We work in spring and fall, and we book around the storm calls managers ask us to clear across Kansas.
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 cleaning per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement before anyone is dispatched. Call (866) 435-6328 with the address of the home or business and we will put the number in writing.
Height is the biggest factor on our jobs. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift and set it up under fall-protection rules, and that changes the crew and the time on site. Compacted debris in a gutter system not cleaned in years takes longer for gutter cleaners to clear than a maintained run, and each gutter guard that must be lifted and reseated adds time. Oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all move the quote. Downspout flushing, debris haul-off and the cleaning solutions for the roof membrane are included per building and are not billed as extras. Gutter protection is quoted separately, not billed inside the cleaning price. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly gutter maintenance is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building and the measurements are on file. That is why owners who hire gutter cleaning companies for more than one visit a year usually choose a schedule.
On a Kansas City property we ask for the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. Text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you what the job needs before we quote the cleaning services. Our experience across Kansas tells us the properties that take longest are the ones with a residential and commercial mix on one site, where access and hours differ by building. Each one gets a separate line on the invoice so the owner can check it against the cleaning process we ran. We ask for the final inspection photos before we invoice, so the building manager sees each run before the number arrives.
| 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 Kansas City properties we service, most are on twice a year, spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy trees are on quarterly, and we offer gutter cleaning on a fixed calendar set around each property's gutter cleaning needs. Across Kansas the storm season is where the calls come in, and managers who call us after a storm usually find the same thing: a blockage at the downspouts first, the runs sagging next.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-bound debris mixed with fryer-vent dust and landscape litter, and the run fills faster than any residential gutter we see. Professional gutter cleaning services on a restaurant building are a different job from a standard office roof, so those visits sit inside our gutter cleaning and maintenance schedule on their own timing.
On a flat roof the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently until the water begins to overflow. The first thing the tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. We provide gutter cleaning on these roofs with the drains checked on the same visit, and we photograph the strainer domes before we leave.
| 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 service area covers the city's business districts and corridors and the surrounding areas where we have serviced properties, and we clean commercial buildings across all of it. We handle a multi-building portfolio with one contact for every site. Scheduling works the same way for a property manager as for a single building: a date confirmed in writing, our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival, and work is timed around tenant hours where you ask.
A clogged gutter on a commercial roof usually shows up first as a leak at the fascia or a stain on the soffit or the siding below it. A clog at a downspout elbow is one common cause, and water backing up from it can cause roof leaks, so the faster it is cleaned the less water gets behind the wall. We keep the same gutter cleaning process on every property, with a thorough gutter cleaning of each run, so the owner's invoice matches the report. We serve homeowners and businesses alike, and our commercial properties get the same photo report as any residential job. A homeowner who also manages a commercial building can book both with the same gutter company. A residential gutter cleaning helps protect your home from water damage. Commercial and residential properties share one schedule, and keeping clean gutters on that single calendar puts the maintenance records in one place for the owner.
We price it per building, and the number depends on the linear footage, the height and the gutter type. Each building gets its own quote in writing, so you can see what drives a thorough gutter cleaning before any work starts.
Your lease decides, not us. The lease type settles it, and the section above shows how each common lease reads. This is not legal advice, so read the maintenance clause of your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it.
Quarterly is the schedule that matches most gutter cleaning needs on the restaurant and flat-roof buildings we service, with a check between visits when a tenant reports a stain.
Yes. We bring a boom or scissor lift and set it up under fall-protection rules, so the height is handled on the day. Call (866) 435-6328 with the number of stories and we will confirm what the building needs, and whether it falls inside our service area.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours and sign in with the on-site contact when we arrive, and we follow the access rules the building sets.
We clear the roof drains and scuppers along with the gutters, and we photograph the strainer domes before we leave, so you see the condition of each drain. Gutter protection is a separate job we can quote, not part of this visit.
After a storm the call-outs usually turn up blocked downspouts and runs pulled loose from their hangers. We photograph anything we find and report it, and we clear what is blocked.
Yes. Each of your commercial properties is invoiced on its own line, and a recurring schedule covers all of them on one calendar. Text a photo of the roofline and we will set it up.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
