We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building, priced from the footprint and height of each roofline, 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, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Shreveport properties on our books are mostly office, retail and multifamily buildings that book ahead of the spring and fall visits.
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 each commercial building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or satellite measurement before anyone is dispatched. Your number comes back in writing, so nothing changes on the invoice. Many gutter cleaning companies quote by the foot alone, which misses height and roof type, so ask what the number covers. Call (866) 435-6328 for a written quote on your building.
Height is the biggest single factor. Above three stories we run a boom or scissor lift, and that setup is priced into the building. Compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer to clear than a seasonal load, and each clog at a downspout adds time on that run. A clogged gutter left alone can overflow onto siding and soften the wall under it, which is why we photograph the outlet before we leave. Gutter protection that has to be lifted and reseated adds time on every run. 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 and debris haul-off are included per building and are never billed as extras. A gutter cleaning service on a fixed schedule, semi-annual or quarterly, is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building.
Our Shreveport experience is most of what we clean on a flat roof with internal drains: one office building with three downspouts discharging onto a walkway was quoted per building from its footprint, and the photo report showed the discharge point before any work began. Thorough gutter cleaning on that kind of roof checks the internal drains as well as the gutter run, and a thorough cleaning is documented in the photo report. To quote a Shreveport property we need the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. Our service area covers Shreveport and the surrounding areas, and if your building sits outside it, tell us the address and we will say so before you book.
| Per building | |
|---|---|
| Standard, one to two stories | from $150 |
| Oversized box or industrial gutters | from $280 |
| Three stories and up, with a lift | from $375 |
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 Shreveport properties we service are on twice a year, spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover are on quarterly. Those schedules come from what we pull out of these buildings, not from a general rule.
Our cleaning services follow the same gutter cleaning process on every property: gutters cleared, every downspout flushed, and a final inspection before we leave. The storm season matters too, since hurricane-season landfalls across Louisiana are when the managers who call us after a storm see debris in the system. Across Louisiana the spring visit runs mid to late April, and the fall visit runs late November to December. Shreveport averages 53.7 inches of rain a year, and its wettest months are March, April and December, so both visits sit close to the wettest months of the year. Freeze risk shows up in the late-fall visit on the run that sags under ice.
On a flat roof the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without warning. The first thing a tenant usually notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why a monthly check runs between cleanings. A leak at a seam is often the first sign of a blocked run, so the check looks for it. A gutter guard that is not seated right will hold debris on the same roofline, and the gutter system shows it in the photo report. Whether it is a home or business, the schedule should match what the gutters actually carry, and a homeowner or property manager gets the same answer after the first visit. Our schedules are built for residential and commercial buildings alike.
| 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 for commercial properties in Shreveport and handle multi-building portfolios as one job. One contact covers every building on a site, a date is confirmed in writing, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Where asked, we time the work around tenant hours. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date for your site.
We provide gutter cleaning for a range of properties, and the same crew handles residential gutter work and landscape-adjacent exterior runs when a property needs it. A blockage on a single downspout can send water into a wall, which is why we inspect for water damage at the outlet on every run. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a set schedule, and we match the cleaning to the gutter cleaning needs of each building rather than a fixed package. Our gutter maintenance covers the roofline and the outlets, and a sagging run or a leak gets noted in the photo report. Clear gutters help protect your home or building from water damage. Stained siding or fascia is a question for cleaning solutions, not gutter cleaning, and we say so in the photo report.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses across the city. As a gutter company with our own scheduled crew, we run one schedule for commercial and residential properties when a client owns both, and the photo report looks the same on each. Lead time depends on the season and the size of the portfolio, so ask for a date when you call.
We price per building, and linear footage is one of the inputs along with height and gutter type. Each number comes in writing before we are dispatched, so you know what the building costs before the crew arrives.
The lease decides, and the section above on who pays walks through the lease types. We send 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.
Restaurants and flat roofs with internal drains are on quarterly schedules on our Shreveport jobs, and a clogged gutter on a restaurant line is often the reason. Those roofs back up silently, so the monthly check between cleanings catches problems before a tenant sees a ceiling stain.
Yes, we use a boom or scissor lift for commercial buildings above three stories and fall protection on every job. The setup is included in the quote for that building.
Yes. Tell us the hours and any access rules when you book, and the crew will work within them and check in with the on-site contact on arrival.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs along with the gutters and downspouts. Debris is hauled off site, and any drain we cannot clear is photographed and reported.
After a storm we get calls from managers who see debris piled in the downspouts and water backing up at the roofline. Debris left in the gutter can cause roof leaks once water finds a seam, so we clean gutters on the whole run and photograph each one, and you get a record of what came down.
Yes. We invoice per building with the work shown on each one, and a recurring schedule covers every property in the portfolio under one contact. Call (866) 435-6328 to set one up.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
