We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in Taylor, priced from each building's footprint and height. Fall protection or a boom or scissor lift is on every job, and you get a photo report once we finish. The crew doing the work is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job squeezed between re-roofs. We service office, retail and multifamily properties in Taylor, and most of them book 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.
Our gutter cleaning service prices each building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Every quote covers a thorough cleaning of the building's runs and drains, and the number you get is the number on the invoice.
What moves a quote on our commercial jobs is mostly height and access. Anything above three stories needs a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup that goes with it. A clogged gutter full of compacted debris, on a system that has not been cleaned in years, takes more crew hours than a light load, especially where the overflow has already stained the siding. A gutter guard that has to be lifted and reseated, oversized or box gutters, and a clog at a roof drain or scupper on a flat roof all add time. The number of buildings on one site matters too, since one mobilization can cover several buildings at the same address.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are not billed as extras. Gutter protection work such as guard installation is quoted separately from the cleaning. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building and the footage is already measured. Our gutter cleaning service is set up the same way for a single building or a portfolio of commercial properties, and the crew can clean gutters on any of the commercial buildings on that account under one quote per building.
On one Taylor office property, the quote came down to three stories, a flat roof with internal drains, and what we found in the drains once the lift was up. Each run and each drain was photographed before and after, and the invoice was written per building. To quote your property, call (866) 435-6328 or send us the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to.
| 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 Taylor properties we service, most are on twice a year, in spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings with heavy landscape and tree debris on quarterly.
After the storm season, the post-storm inspections turn up the same pattern: leaf and debris load pushed into downspouts and drains, and a few hangers that let go under the weight. The month that leaves and pollen hit hardest is when the spring visit lands, which is why the season timing is set around it. Our gutter cleaning process starts with a check of each run before anything comes out, and gutter maintenance between visits is what keeps the drains clear.
Flat roofs are where we see the most silent trouble. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister. Left alone, that standing water can cause roof leaks. That is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on those properties, and why the quarterly schedule is the right fit for them.
Property managers who call us for cleaning services after a storm, or who compare gutter cleaners and gutter cleaning companies, usually want the same answer: what was actually in the gutters, and what it cost to clear it. A gutter system that gets a regular visit from the same gutter company gives you that answer before the problem reaches the ceiling, and it helps protect your home or business from water damage. Whether it is a single building or a residential and commercial portfolio, the schedule is built around what the building actually collects.
| 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 commercial corridors of Taylor and the surrounding areas, and the portfolios that come to us are usually a mix of office, retail and multifamily sites. We also offer gutter cleaning to homeowners and businesses, so a single account can cover both. For a property manager with several buildings, one contact handles all of them, and a date is confirmed in writing before the crew arrives.
When our crew arrives, it checks in with the on-site contact first, then starts on the lowest buildings and works up, and a final inspection of every run and drain closes out each visit. Each visit is a thorough gutter cleaning of the whole building, not a spot check. Where tenant hours or access rules apply, we time the work around them. Scheduling is set per property: call (866) 435-6328 and tell us your gutter cleaning needs, and we will confirm the lead time and whether your building is inside our service area so you can book a date.
Our crews cover commercial and residential properties alike, and residential gutter cleaning runs on the same method as the commercial work, so a manager with a few houses and a few storefronts can keep everything on one account. We also provide gutter cleaning for each homeowner, and the crew treats a house the same way it treats a storefront: every run and every downspout is cleared, not only the parts visible from the street.
The same crew handles gutter cleaning and maintenance across a site, with cleaning solutions chosen per building, which keeps the photos and the invoices consistent from one visit to the next. If a building shows water damage, a leak, or a blockage that the cleaning cannot clear, the photo goes in the report, and the same goes for staining on the siding. The decision stays with you.
We price per building, and the number depends on the building's linear footage, its height and the gutter type. We do not give a figure on this page; you get the number in writing for each building before the work is booked. When you compare gutter cleaning companies, ask whether each quote includes downspout flushing and haul-off, and whether the figure is per building.
The lease decides, not us. The section above on who pays walks through each lease type, and this is not legal advice, so check your maintenance clause or ask the attorney who drafted the lease.
On the restaurants and flat-roof buildings we service, quarterly is what keeps the gutters and drains clear, because grease, debris and standing water build up faster than on a standard building.
Yes. Above three stories on commercial buildings we work from a boom or scissor lift, with fall protection on every job, and the lift is matched to the roofline. Clean gutters on a tall building are a lift job, not a ladder job.
Yes. We offer gutter cleaning around your schedule, and we time the work around tenant hours and sign in with the building contact when access rules apply, so nothing surprises the tenants.
Both. On flat roofs a thorough gutter cleaning covers the roof drains and scuppers along with the gutters, and we photograph each one before and after.
Across Michigan, severe thunderstorms push leaf and debris load into downspouts and drains, and sometimes a hanger lets go. A backed-up gutter can cause roof leaks, so we photograph what we find and put it in the report.
Yes. We invoice each building separately and set up a recurring schedule for a portfolio on one account. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate to get your buildings set up.
