We quote commercial gutter cleaning per building, from the footprint and height of each roofline, and put the number in writing before anyone is dispatched. The crew that quotes the job is the crew that climbs it: our own employed people, not a roofer's side job between re-roofs. Every job runs with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift, and every building gets a photo report of each run and downspout when we finish.
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 gutter cleaning per building from linear footage, height and gutter type, in writing, from a site plan or a satellite measurement, before anyone is dispatched. Each figure is for one building, so a multi-building site gets one quote per structure, each with its own thorough gutter cleaning scope, rather than a single number for the lot.
What moves the quote is what we run into on the property. Commercial buildings above three stories need a boom or scissor lift and the fall-protection setup that goes with it. Compacted debris, or a clog that has built up in a gutter system not cleaned in years, takes longer to clear than a light seasonal load. When a run backs up, the overflow runs down the siding and that is where the staining starts. Gutter guards or other gutter protection that has to come off first, oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all change the hours. Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building in this gutter cleaning service and are not 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.
On our Collierville commercial properties, the quote that stays with a property manager is the one where the building class, the height and the debris load were all written down on the first visit. For an office building off a main road we quoted a single structure with one lift setup and a flat-roof section with internal drains, and the invoice listed each run separately so the board could check it. We need an address or site plan, the stories, the roof type, the number of buildings and who the invoice goes to before we can write the quote for your property. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will return 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 Collierville properties we service are on twice a year, spring and late fall, and the restaurants, flat roofs with internal drains and buildings under heavy tree cover go on a quarterly schedule. That split is what we see on the sites we clean, not a general rule. Every visit runs the same cleaning process, from the first run to a final inspection before the crew leaves, and our cleaning services are booked the same way for a home or business.
Spring visits clear what the season leaves behind: seed and pollen packed into the downspout elbows and a damp leaf mat from the wet months. Late fall visits clear the leaves that drop after the last warm week. Each visit ends with a thorough cleaning of every run. The storm season across Tennessee brings hail and heavy rain that push grit into the runs, and the managers who call us after a storm usually want the same crew back on the same building within the month. Where a freeze comes, we check for sagged runs and split downspouts before the first hard cold.
On a flat roof the parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up without any sound. The first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, and that blister is the start of a leak and water damage, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on those roofs. The cleaning solutions are matched to the membrane type, so the roof gets checked before the crew starts. A restaurant gutter pulls grease-laden debris that a standard building never sees, and that is what puts it on quarterly. Where a building has no gutter guard in place, the debris sits in the runs instead of washing past them, and that changes the interval as well. A gutter system cleaned on the same calendar every year is easier to keep clear than one that gutter cleaning companies only get called to after a complaint.
| 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 covers the commercial corridors of Collierville and the surrounding areas, and we provide gutter cleaning across all of it. We also offer gutter cleaning and maintenance on a scheduled basis for property managers who run more than one site. The landscape around each building sets how much debris reaches the runs, so the scope is written per site. The job a property manager needs is rarely one building, so our scheduling is set up around the portfolio: one contact for every building on the list, a date confirmed in writing for each site, and a crew that checks in with the on-site contact on arrival. Where tenants need work done outside business hours, we time the crew around those hours on request.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners and businesses alike, and the same crew handles gutter cleaning needs on request. Residential and commercial jobs run on the same written scope. Our commercial work covers office, retail and multifamily buildings, and the blockage we clear on those properties is the same kind of load a homeowner sees, only spread across more footage and more stories. Clean runs also help protect your home from water damage, and whether it is a home or business or a whole portfolio of buildings, we will give the scope in writing so the cleaning is priced and dated before anyone climbs. Our professional gutter cleaning services are booked the same way for every site. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the building and we will book a date.
Our gutter cleaning process starts with a number per building, built from the linear footage, the height and the gutter type, and we put it in writing before the visit. Linear footage is the starting point, but height, debris load and the number of downspouts all change the hours, so two buildings with the same footage can get different quotes. Ask any gutter cleaners you compare with for the same details, because a number without them is not comparable.
The lease decides, so read the section above that sets out who pays under each lease type. We write the invoice to whichever party the lease names, and this is general information rather than legal advice.
On the restaurants and flat roofs we service, we put them on a quarterly schedule, because grease and parapet debris build up faster than on a standard building. Left alone, standing water can cause roof leaks, so a monthly check on the flat roof catches a clogged gutter or drain before it reaches a ceiling.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift with fall protection in place, and we match the lift to the building. The same fall-protection rules apply to commercial and residential properties alike. The setup is decided once we see the roofline, so send us the stories and the roof type before we schedule.
Yes, we can time the crew around tenant hours and sign in with the on-site contact on arrival. Tell us the access rules when you request the quote so the crew arrives prepared.
We clear roof drains and scuppers along with the gutters and downspouts, photograph each one, and finish with a final inspection. Anything beyond clearing, such as a broken scupper or a drain that needs repair, goes in the report and is not fixed by the crew.
After a storm across Tennessee we most often find grit and small branches jammed in the runs, and sagged hangers where the water load was heaviest. The managers who call after a storm usually want the same crew back on the same building within the month.
Yes. Each building gets its own invoice showing the linear footage, and a recurring schedule covers the whole list with one point of contact. Routine gutter maintenance on that schedule keeps clean gutters on every building between seasons. Call (866) 435-6328 to set up the schedule, and ask any gutter company for a written estimate for each building.
Footage, height and the address by phone or email. The quote comes in writing, per building.
