We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in Brooklyn Park, priced from each building's footprint and height, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every job and a photo report after. The crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Our Brooklyn Park crew works across Minnesota properties most often in spring and fall, so we plan the schedule around your building's cleaning window.
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. The gutter cleaning service we write up covers the full run of each building, and a thorough gutter cleaning of the gutter system is what the number pays for, so the figure you approve is the figure on the invoice.
Several things move the quote on our jobs. Height above three stories means a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup that goes with it. Compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer to clear and haul, and a clog that has sat for a season costs more time than a light load. Gutter protection that has to be lifted and reseated, including a gutter guard on every run, adds time to the job. Oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all change the footprint of the job. Commercial buildings with flat roofs and internal drains take longer than a standard run. A run packed with debris will overflow at the low corner in the next heavy rain, and water that spills past the edge runs straight down the siding. Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and not billed as extras, and scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call.
For commercial properties we need the address or site plan, the stories, the roof type and the number of buildings before we write the number. We also need to know who the invoice goes to, so the property manager is not stuck in the middle. Once we have that, the quote comes back the same week, and before we leave, the crew runs a final inspection of every run and drain. Keeping the runs clear is how we protect your home or building from water at the foundation. A building that overflows after cleaning is a slope question we will point out, not a reason to sell a second cleaning. To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a roofline photo, and we will write it up.
| 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 Brooklyn Park properties we service most buildings are on twice a year, in spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover run on a quarterly schedule. The same schedule works for residential and commercial buildings alike, and gutter maintenance on a fixed calendar is what keeps a building off the emergency list. Our fall visit runs October to early November, and to book a date for either window, call (866) 435-6328.
Minnesota storm season and the post-storm inspections are what we find most often, and the storm call-outs show loose debris and clogged runs that were fine a month earlier. Spring pollen and seeds pack the downspouts, and the autumn leaf load fills the runs before the freeze, so a clogged gutter is the usual result. The wettest months here are May, June and July, and clean gutters can fill with that rain well before the fall visit, so a monthly walk-around between visits is one of the cleaning solutions we add to a schedule.
On flat roofs the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, and a leak at the ceiling usually shows up after a run has been full for months. Standing water from a blocked drain can cause roof leaks at the membrane seams, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. Our crew can fit your gutter cleaning process to any schedule the building needs, and the cleaning services stay the same on a homeowner's roof or a commercial one: the same crew, the same photos, the same report.
| 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 Brooklyn Park and the commercial corridors of Minnesota, plus the surrounding areas. For a property manager with several buildings we offer one contact for all of them, a date confirmed in writing, and a crew that checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Work can be timed around tenant hours where asked, and we give the schedule up front rather than promising a day that depends on the weather. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date, or text a site plan for the first building.
We also do professional gutter cleaning services for residential gutter jobs, and we offer gutter cleaning and maintenance to homeowners and businesses alike. Residential and commercial work share the same crew, so one crew can handle a home or business on the same account, and we take commercial and residential properties under one contract.
We provide gutter cleaning for each site as a separate, photographed visit, which keeps the blockage on one building from being blamed on another. A single clogged run can cause water damage on a shared wall, and we address those gutter cleaning needs building by building, with the landscape beds under the downspouts kept clear of the debris we pull.
A thorough cleaning is quoted per building, and the number depends on footage, height and what is in the runs. We put it in writing per building before we book.
Who pays depends on the lease. The lease decides, not the state, so read the section above and check the maintenance clause. This is not legal advice.
Restaurants and flat-roof buildings on our route are cleaned quarterly, since grease and debris clog the runs faster than a standard building. Some gutter cleaning companies quote by the roof, but we quote per building so the number matches the footage.
Yes, we can work on a building over three stories with a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup it requires. When you compare gutter cleaners, ask whether the lift is in the quote.
We can work around tenant hours and on-site access rules. Tell us the window and we confirm it in writing. Residential gutter cleaning is quoted on the same footage and height basis, so a homeowner sees the same logic.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs as well as the gutters, and a thorough gutter cleaning on a commercial building takes longer than the same job at a house. A gutter company that skips the drains leaves the water that can cause roof leaks in place.
After a severe storm we get call-outs for debris-filled runs and loose downspouts, and we photograph each one before we touch it.
Yes, we invoice per building and can set up a recurring schedule for several properties. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to ask for a written estimate.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
