We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in Billings, based on the footprint and height of each one. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Every job is done with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and you get a photo report of every run after. We work on office, retail and multifamily buildings, and most property managers book us for the spring and fall.
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 every building as a gutter cleaning service job, priced 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 and we will send the figure for your buildings.
What moves the quote is what we run into on the property. Height above three stories means a boom or scissor lift and fall protection on every run. A clog at a downspout elbow, or compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years, takes longer to clear. Gutter protection has to be lifted and reseated before the run is cleaned, oversized or box gutters take more time, and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs need their own pass. The number of buildings on one site also changes the math, because we set up once and work across them.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are never billed as extras. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the footage is already measured and the crew already knows the building. We work commercial properties across our service area and the surrounding areas, and the price you see reflects the same thorough gutter cleaning every time. When a run is left to overflow, the water can soak into the siding and cause water damage, and a thorough cleaning is how we protect your home from that.
On one Billings job, the quote came down to the number of stories, the roof type and the number of buildings on the site, plus what we found in the gutters once the guards were lifted. Those are the details we need to size your gutter cleaning needs: the address or a site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Text a photo of the roofline and we will start the quote from there.
| 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.
Most Billings properties we service are on twice a year, spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover on quarterly. Those are the properties where the debris builds up fastest, and the gutter system works hardest.
On the Billings properties we service, the spring visit clears the seed and pollen that packs the downspout elbows, and the fall visit clears the wet leaf mat before the first hard freeze. Where a building has a gutter guard, the spring visit lifts it to clear the seed and pollen that gets under it. Clearing the debris comes first, and cleaning solutions are only used where a run needs them. Storm season is the other reason to call: the post-storm inspections are where we find pulled hangers and seams that have let go, and the property managers who call us after a storm usually want those checked the same week.
Flat roofs need more attention than they look like they do. Parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without a sound, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile, a membrane blister or a leak. That is why the monthly check between cleanings is part of our gutter maintenance on those properties, so the drains are seen before the ceiling is.
Restaurants are the same story. What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laden debris from the kitchen exhaust and the rooftop, and that is why the schedule is shorter. Whether a building is on one of our cleaning services plans or a one-time visit, the crew is the same, and the gutter cleaning process is the same: every run, every downspout, every drain, photographed.
| 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 provide gutter cleaning for commercial properties across Billings, and our professional gutter cleaning services run from single buildings to multi-building sites. Our crews work the business districts, corridors and business parks where we have already serviced properties, and much of the debris that fills the runs comes off the landscape around those buildings. As a gutter company, we schedule each site with one contact for every building in the portfolio. You get one invoice per building with the linear footage shown, so an owner or a board can check it.
A date is confirmed in writing, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Where tenant hours matter, we time the work around them, and we will work around the access rules your building already has. We also offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a recurring schedule, so the same gutter cleaners know the buildings and the blockage points before they go up the ladder. Every visit ends with a final inspection of each run and drain before the crew leaves the site. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will book a date.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for a homeowner with one house, or for a home or business that needs a single building cleaned, but this page is about commercial buildings. If your portfolio includes commercial and residential properties, we handle the scheduling for both in one place.
We price per building, but the figure is built from linear footage, height and gutter type, so the way you see it depends on the property. The number comes in writing for each building once we have the site plan or a satellite measurement.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause in your lease, and if it is unclear, ask the attorney who drafted it. We send the invoice to whichever party the lease names, so the property manager is not caught in the middle. This is general information, not legal advice.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service, quarterly is the normal schedule, because grease and drain debris build up faster than on a standard building. A flat roof with internal drains is the one we watch hardest, since a backed-up drain shows up as a ceiling stain or a leak first.
Yes. Above three stories we use a boom or scissor lift with fall protection on every run. Tell us the height and the number of stories when you request the quote, so we can match the lift to the building.
Yes. We time the work around tenant hours where asked and follow the access rules of your building. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival, and the date is confirmed in writing.
Both. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs get their own pass, cleared of debris with the strainer domes reseated. A clogged gutter or drain left alone can cause roof leaks, so we photograph each one, and anything we find that needs repair is noted in the report, not sold to you.
After a severe storm, the post-storm call-outs turn up pulled hangers, separated seams and downspouts knocked out of their brackets. We photograph each one and note it in the report, so the property manager has a record before the next inspection.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice with the linear footage shown, which is also what to ask for when you compare gutter cleaning companies. A recurring schedule can cover several properties under one contact. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to start the schedule.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
