We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in Dayton, priced from each building's footprint and height. Fall protection or a boom or scissor lift goes on every job, and you get a photo report when we are done.
Our crew does this work on a schedule. We are not a roofer picking up gutter jobs between re-roofs, so the people who quote your building are the people who climb it.
Across Ohio our crews clean office, retail and multifamily buildings on the spring and fall visits that property managers book most.
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 commercial gutter cleaning service per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched.
Height is the largest single factor on our jobs. Above three stories we bring a boom or scissor lift, and that setup is priced into the building. A clog from compacted debris on a system nobody has cleaned in years takes longer to clear, and gutter guard systems have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be flushed. Where a run is blocked and water can overflow, it runs down the siding below, so we check the lower courses on every building. Oversized box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs and the number of buildings on one site all move the number too.
Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are not billed as extras. Each quote covers a thorough gutter cleaning of every run, with a thorough cleaning of each downspout included. 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 measured.
Our service area includes Dayton and the surrounding areas, and commercial properties are most of what we quote there. 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, and we will put the quote in writing. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with what we need.
| 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 commercial properties we service in Dayton are on twice a year, a spring visit and a fall visit, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on quarterly. Across Ohio, spring visits run late May to June, and fall visits in Dayton run late October to November. Our cleaning services follow the same cleaning process for every home or business on the calendar.
Across Ohio, severe thunderstorms and derechos are what drive the schedule. The managers who call us after a storm usually find leaves and landscape debris packed into the runs and downspouts that were clear in the spring, and the post-storm inspection is where we catch a pulled hanger or a separated seam before it becomes a leak.
On a flat roof the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without any warning. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists. Restaurants push the same problem faster, with grease and food debris in the gutter line, so their gutter cleaning process is set to the quarterly calendar. Between visits, gutter maintenance on a flat roof is a look at the gutter guard and the drain strainer. We pick the cleaning solutions to match the debris, so a restaurant's grease and a warehouse's grit are not treated the same way.
Book your spring or fall date now and we will confirm it in writing before the crew arrives. A gutter system that gets a fixed calendar stays out of the emergency queue. We run the same schedule for a residential and commercial mix, so a homeowner or a property manager gets the same final inspection with photos at the end of each visit.
| 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 Dayton, and we treat a multi-building portfolio as one account. We offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on one schedule, so a property manager with several sites deals with one contact.
Scheduling works like this. You get one contact for every building, a date confirmed in writing, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Tell us your gutter cleaning needs once and we set the schedule for every building. Where tenants need quiet hours or restricted access, we time the work around them. Lead time depends on the season and is confirmed when we book, so ask for the earliest open date.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses, and the same crew handles the residential gutter needs on the same schedule. Clean gutters protect your home from water damage near the foundation, and that holds for residential and commercial buildings alike. A landlord with commercial and residential properties can keep one vendor for both, and the crew uses the same professional gutter cleaning services on either kind of building.
Our work covers the blockage and water damage that come from a clogged system, and we photograph everything we find so the owner has a record. Ask any gutter cleaning companies you are comparing for photos of the finished work, because a report is the only way to check it.
We price per building, and the number depends on linear footage, height, gutter type and what is in the runs. Our gutter cleaning process starts with the quote, which you get in writing before we are dispatched, so there is no surprise on the invoice.
The lease decides, not us. Read the maintenance clause of your lease, and see the lease section on this page for how the common lease types usually read. This is not legal advice, so check with the attorney who drafted the lease.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service in Dayton, quarterly gutter maintenance keeps grease and debris from backing up into a clogged gutter or drain. A standard building can go twice a year.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift under fall-protection rules, and that setup is included in the building's quote. Send the stories count with your request.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours and sign in with the on-site contact on arrival. Tell us the access rules when you book and we will plan the crew around them.
Both. On flat roofs we clear roof drains and scuppers along with the gutters, and we photograph the strainer domes so you can see their condition. Where there is gutter protection on the run, we lift it for the clean and reseat it afterward.
After severe storms our post-storm calls usually turn up leaves and grit packed into the runs, plus the occasional pulled hanger, and a blocked run left alone can cause roof leaks. Clean gutters carry water away from the roof, so we photograph each finding and report it rather than repairing it without authorization.
Yes. We invoice per building and can set up one recurring schedule covering all of your properties, with one contact and one confirmed date per visit, so you deal with one gutter company instead of several gutter cleaners. Call (866) 435-6328 to set it up.
