We quote commercial gutter and downspout cleaning per building in Hillsboro, 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 of every run when we are finished. The crew doing the work is ours and scheduled, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. On our Hillsboro jobs we clean office, retail and multifamily properties, and most managers book us ahead of 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 commercial work per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. The same method covers residential and commercial work, and a home or business gets a written quote before the crew is booked. What moves the quote is what we run into on the properties themselves. Buildings above three stories need a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup that goes with it. A system nobody has cleaned in years carries compacted debris that takes longer to clear. A gutter guard has to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the channel, and oversized or box gutters take more time per run. Where a gutter system sits close to siding, the crew notes any damage along the run in the photo report. Roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs add work, and the number of buildings on one site changes the day's schedule. Each gutter cleaning service is quoted per building, and downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included, not billed as extras. If a building needs cleaning solutions beyond water, that is quoted before use. Scheduled semi-annual or quarterly service is priced lower than a one-off call, because the crew already knows the building. Every job closes with a final inspection of each run and drain. Ask any gutter cleaners or gutter cleaning companies you compare for the lift and haul-off line in writing. On the Hillsboro jobs we have handled, a commercial clog that backed water over a roof edge set the scope, and the photos and the written quote came back the same day. To quote a Hillsboro property we need the address or site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and ask for a written estimate.
| 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 Hillsboro properties we service are on twice a year, spring and late fall, while restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on quarterly. Between the storm season and the leaf drop, the gutters carry more load than the schedule assumes, and the post-storm inspections are where we find the blockage that cleanings alone do not catch. A run that spills over in the same spot every storm is how water damage starts at the fascia, so that spot gets a second look. On a flat roof, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently. The first thing a tenant usually notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why we check the roofline between scheduled cleanings. Our professional gutter cleaning services on these properties follow the same cleaning process every visit, so the record stays comparable from one season to the next. Homeowners and businesses both get the same photo report, and we provide gutter cleaning for each building on the schedule as a separate line. A homeowner with a single house gets the same photo report and one written quote. Our gutter cleaning and maintenance plans start with a walk of the site, and the gutter cleaning needs of each building are written down before the first visit. We offer gutter cleaning for multi-building sites on one invoice, and the schedule is set once a season. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the gutters 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 Hillsboro, and we do professional gutter cleaning for commercial and residential properties across the city, with the business district properties on our route getting the most frequent visits. Managers who run more than one building usually want a single scheduler, so we book every site through one contact and confirm each date in writing. The gutter cleaning process is the same at every site: we walk the roofline, clear each run, photograph it, then invoice the building. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival and works around tenant hours when asked. We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners in the same area, but the commercial schedule is what we plan around. Every building gets its own photo report, so a facilities lead can compare runs from one season to the next and see where a gutter company's work is holding. Every run gets a thorough cleaning, not a sweep of the sections visible from the lot. Leaves and landscape debris from nearby trees are cleared with the rest of the run. Gutter protection, meaning guard installation, is not part of a cleaning visit. Routine gutter maintenance between visits keeps a building from building up debris, and a clean gutter is easier to check for slope problems that cause roof leaks. Keeping the runs clear also helps protect your home from water damage at the eaves. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to book the next date.
We price each building on its own, using the linear footage, the height and the gutter type. Each number includes a thorough gutter cleaning and comes to you in writing per building, so you can see exactly what each site costs before we book it.
The lease decides, not state law, so the maintenance clause is the place to look. The section above on who pays covers the usual lease types. This is general information and not legal advice, so ask the attorney who drafted the lease if the clause is unclear.
On the restaurants and flat-roof buildings we service, quarterly is the schedule that keeps the internal drains clear. Grease and debris build up faster there than on a standard building, and the monthly check between cleanings catches a backup before it turns into a leak through a ceiling.
Yes. Buildings above three stories are cleaned from a boom or scissor lift with fall protection in place, and the lift is matched to the building before the crew arrives.
Yes. We schedule around tenant hours when asked and follow the site's access rules, and our crew checks in with the on-site contact when they arrive. We keep the surrounding areas clear of the debris we bag, including walkways and parking under the work.
We clear roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs along with the gutters on commercial properties, and we photograph each one. Anything else we find is noted in the report and not repaired without your authorization.
Storms bring leaves, branch debris and grit into the gutters all at once, so post-storm call-outs often find a clogged gutter or a blocked downspout that needs clearing before the next rain. A sagging run that holds water is how an overflow starts at the eave. We inspect and clear what we find, then send photos of every run.
Yes. Each building is invoiced separately, and a recurring schedule for several properties is set up once per season with one contact. Call (866) 435-6328 or ask for a written estimate to get the schedule started.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
