We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning in Bend per building, priced from the footprint and height of each one. Every job runs with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and you get a photo report of each run when we finish. We are the crew that does the work, scheduled on your calendar rather than fitted in between roof jobs. Our Bend work covers office and retail buildings that book for the spring and fall visits, and our crew is ready for the storm season, which brings atmospheric rivers across Oregon.
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 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. Every quote covers a thorough cleaning of each run and drain, and the number on the quote is the number on the invoice.
Several things move a quote on our jobs. Building height changes the setup time, and so does the number of stories a crew has to reach from the ground. A gutter system that has not been touched in years carries a heavier clog load than a light seasonal one, so a thorough gutter cleaning on an old system takes longer to clear. Gutter protection that has to be lifted and reseated adds time, and oversized or box gutters carry more footage per run. Where siding sits close to the gutter line, the crew protects it while working, and a site with heavy overflow takes longer than one where the water stays inside the channel. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs are part of the count, a building set in heavy landscape adds bagging time when trees drop debris, and the number of buildings on one site changes how the day is scheduled. A service area with several properties is quoted as one route, so the drive time is shared.
Commercial properties vary a lot, from single-story offices to multi-building sites, and a quote for each one starts with its footprint. We quote buildings in the surrounding areas on the same written basis. Ask any gutter cleaners you are comparing for the same written scope, so the lines on the quotes can be read side by side. On a Bend quote, we need the address or site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Those five details are enough for us to write a per-building number and send it back in writing. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the building, and we will send a written quote for it.
| 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 buildings we service run on twice a year, spring and late fall, with restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover on quarterly service. Across Oregon, the spring visit usually falls in mid to late June. In Bend, the fall visit runs late September to October, so the crew clears the leaves before the wettest months of January, November and December. Across Oregon, the storm season brings atmospheric rivers, and after a heavy blow the post-storm check is where we find debris pushed into the outlets and loose hangers.
Bend gets about 21.6 inches of snow a year, mostly from January through March and again in November and December, and freeze risk is real here, so a backed-up run can ice up before anyone sees it. Our cleaning services follow the same order each visit: the crew opens the outlets, clears the gutter system from the high end down, checks the gutter guard where one is fitted, and walks the site for a final inspection before leaving. Quotes from gutter cleaning companies differ, so ask any of them for the footage, the lift and the drains in writing. The spring visit is when the seed and pollen load comes out of the downspouts, and a building under the canopy of tall trees sees its gutters fill faster and the schedule tightens.
On flat roofs, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without any noise. The cleaning process on a flat roof starts with the drains, not the gutters. The first sign is usually water damage, a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on those buildings. A cleaning every six months does not catch a drain that clogs in March. We walk the roof between visits so the water has somewhere to go.
Restaurants run quarterly because grease and food debris build up in the gutters faster than leaves do. The crew brings different cleaning solutions for that load, and the schedule should match it. For a manager running residential and commercial properties side by side, one calendar keeps the crew on the same dates each season, and a homeowner with one house follows the same spring and fall logic. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date for the next 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 offer gutter cleaning across Bend's commercial core and the neighborhoods around it, and the professional gutter cleaning services we run are the same for an office as for a house. Our crew handles commercial and residential properties on one schedule, so a property manager with several buildings gets one date confirmed in writing for each site. A blockage in one downspout can back water into the whole run, and we clear it on the same visit.
When the crew arrives, we check in with the on-site contact before the ladder goes up, and we time the work around tenant hours where asked. If the building has a gate code or a rule about when the lift can run, we note it on the job sheet before the visit. We do not work on a building without a confirmed date and a named contact.
We provide gutter cleaning for houses too, and residential gutter cleaning runs on the same calendar, so a house on the portfolio gets booked alongside the commercial buildings. Whether it is a home or business, we match the crew size and lift to each site and send one invoice per building so the accounting stays clear. Clearing the gutters is how we protect your home or building from the water that runs down the wall.
Gutter maintenance is most useful when the same crew knows the buildings. We keep the site notes from each visit, so the crew arriving for the spring visit knows where the blockage was and what the drain looked like the last time. If you change gutter company, ask for those site notes first. That is how we meet the gutter cleaning needs of a property that has been on the same schedule for years. Text a photo of the roofline or book a date, and we confirm the time in writing. Call (866) 435-6328 if you want to talk it through first.
We quote per building, and the figure depends on the footage, the height and the gutter type. The number comes in writing before any crew is sent out, based on a site plan or a satellite measurement.
Look at the upkeep terms in your lease first, since they name who carries the exterior work. If the wording is unclear, the attorney who drafted the lease can confirm it, and we invoice whichever party you name on the request.
On the restaurants and flat-roof buildings we service, quarterly is the schedule that holds up, because grease and internal drains fill faster than leaves. Between visits, we walk the roof so a drain does not quietly back up.
Yes. Tell us the height when you request the quote, so the setup is planned into the number and the right equipment is booked for the right day.
Yes. Our gutter cleaning process includes a check-in with the on-site contact on arrival, and we time the work around tenant hours when you ask. Send us the gate codes and access rules before the visit so the crew is not waiting at the door.
We clear roof drains and scuppers as part of the job on flat roofs. A clogged gutter or drain can cause roof leaks, and a leak that reaches the ceiling costs far more to fix than a cleaning during the visit.
After a heavy blow we see debris pushed into outlets and hangers pulled loose. Call us after the storm, text a photo of the roofline, and we will schedule an inspection and a clean on the next available date.
Yes. We invoice each building separately and set up one recurring schedule across the portfolio, with a date confirmed in writing for each site. Call (866) 435-6328 to set up the schedule, or ask for a written estimate by email.
