We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in High Point, priced from each building's footprint and height. Every job runs with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and you get a photo report when we finish. Our crew is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. We work on office, retail and multifamily buildings across the city, and most of our High Point bookings come in before the spring and late fall seasons.
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 building separately from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement before anyone is dispatched. What moves the number on our jobs is height above three stories and the boom or scissor lift it needs, compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years, a gutter guard that has to be lifted to reach the channel, oversized or box gutters, and roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs. The number of buildings on one site matters too, because we schedule the crew once and work the whole property in a single visit.
Downspout flushing, debris haul-off and the cleaning solutions the job calls for 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 crew already knows the building and the footage is already measured. Our cleaning services cover the full gutter system from the first run to the last downspout outlet, and the cleaning process ends with a final inspection that goes into the report. Ask two gutter cleaning companies for a number and you may get two different bases, which is why every quote from us states its basis in writing.
For a High Point property we need the address or site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and the name of the party the invoice goes to. That is enough for us to write the quote. A homeowner with a single-family house gets the same written quote as a home or business with a commercial roof, since residential and commercial jobs are measured the same way. Every quote shows the gutter linear footage and the height line item, so a board or a facilities lead can check it against the building.
| 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 High Point properties we service, most buildings go on twice a year, in the spring and fall windows below, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on quarterly. Across North Carolina the spring visit falls in late April to May, and the fall visit runs November to early December. Homeowners and businesses on a fixed calendar get the same crew each time. The high rainfall here, about 48 inches a year with the heaviest months in July through September, loads the gutters faster than the calendar suggests. Landscape debris from nearby beds and tree lines adds to that load, and after a storm the call-outs turn up the same thing again and again: debris packed into the downspout elbows and drains, not the open gutter run.
What we pull out of a restaurant gutter every second month is grease-laced leaf mat and fryer exhaust residue that the rain turns into a sludge. On a flat roof the parapets and scuppers back up without a sound, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister. That is why the monthly gutter maintenance check between cleanings exists. Each visit is a thorough cleaning of the drains, not a quick look from the ground, and a schedule built around the property type keeps those problems from ever reaching the tenant.
Our crews handle this kind of professional gutter cleaning services work on a regular basis, and the blockage we find is almost always the same two places: the first elbow below the roofline and the drain at the low corner. Managers who ask us to provide gutter cleaning on a fixed cycle tend to see the water damage stop showing up in their monthly reports. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on those cycles, and the gutter cleaning needs on each building are set from its own roof type and tree load. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roof to book a date.
| 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 is the city and the surrounding areas around it, where we work the business corridors and commercial buildings with flat roofs and tree-covered lots that need the most attention. The crew knows those sites well after a few visits. A multi-building portfolio gets one point of contact for every building, with a date confirmed in writing before the crew arrives and a check-in with the on-site contact when we pull up. Where tenants ask us to work around business hours, we time the crew for the quiet window.
A clogged gutter on a commercial building rarely stays a gutter problem for long. Water that backs up over the edge runs down the fascia and into the wall, and that is the usual route to a leak on the floor below. Our residential gutter cleaning work follows the same method, and we also serve homeowners in the area. For commercial and residential properties alike, we keep the gutter cleaning process the same, and the clean gutters in the report are the ones the property manager can check against the photos. Clean gutters help protect your home or business from that water.
We are a gutter company that works in the field, not a booking office, so our gutter cleaners are usually the same people who quote the job and drive the crew. That keeps the commercial and residential jobs consistent and gives you a single contact who knows the building. Poor drainage is the most common reason we see a roof start to leak, and a clean system is the cheapest way to keep water moving away from the structure before it can cause roof leaks. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the building to book a date.
We quote per building, and the number depends on the linear footage, the stories and the gutter type, so there is no single rate I can give you here. Every quote covers a thorough gutter cleaning of each run, and gutter protection such as a guard is quoted separately because it is not part of a cleaning. Our crew writes the quote in advance from a site plan or satellite measurement, and the figure we write is the figure you pay.
Your lease decides, not us. The lease type (triple net, gross or silent) sets who gets the invoice, and the section above on who pays walks through each case. This is not legal advice, so read the maintenance clause of your lease or ask the attorney who drafted it.
Quarterly is the schedule we set for restaurants and flat roofs in High Point, because grease and debris build up faster than on a standard building. The grease-laced sludge in a restaurant gutter and the blocked scuppers on a flat roof are what decide it.
Yes. Above three stories, on commercial properties, the crew works from a boom or scissor lift under fall protection, and we bring whatever lift the roofline needs. Height is the largest single factor in the quote for those buildings.
Yes. We schedule around the hours and access rules the property manager gives us, and the crew checks in with the on-site contact when we arrive. Tell us the window in writing and we will confirm the date against it.
Both. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs are cleared of debris and the strainer domes are reseated as part of the job. Anything below grade is cleared on request and quoted separately.
After a severe storm the calls we get are mostly debris packed into the downspout elbows and drains, which can clog the outlet and overflow onto walkways and siding. We photograph anything else we find, such as a pulled hanger or a separated seam, and put it in the report without repairing it.
Yes. Each building is invoiced separately with its linear footage shown, and a recurring schedule for several properties runs under one contact across our service area. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will set the dates.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
