We quote our commercial gutter cleaning service per building in Smyrna, priced from each building's footprint and height. Our own crew does the work on every job, with fall protection or a boom or scissor lift on every roofline, and you get a photo report of every run once we finish. We are not a roofer's side job between re-roofs; this is what we schedule and do. We work on Smyrna properties at spring and fall, the two windows when property managers book us most often.
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 work 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 first thing that moves the number. Above three stories the building needs a boom or scissor lift and a fall-protection setup, and that equipment is part of the quote. Compacted debris matters too: a clogged gutter that has not been cleaned in years takes longer than one cleaned last season. Gutter protection, such as a gutter guard, has to be lifted and reseated before the gutter can be cleaned, and that adds time. Oversized or box gutters, roof drains and scuppers on flat roofs, and the number of buildings on one site all change the time on the roof. Downspout flushing and debris haul-off are included per building and are not 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 measured.
On a Smyrna office or multifamily job, the first quote is usually the one that gets the most questions. The site plan settles stories and footage, and the on-site photos show us how much debris the gutters hold. Ask about cleaning solutions for stained siding when you request the quote, so the number covers what you actually need. Once we have those, the quote is final.
The gutter cleaning process starts with the same measurements every time. Thorough gutter cleaning on a commercial building means we bring the lift matched to the roofline, flush every downspout until it runs clear, and check the clog points before we leave. Thorough cleaning also covers the drains, and the crew finishes with a final inspection before the report goes out. Overflow that continues after cleaning usually points to slope, and we say so in the report rather than selling a second visit. When you compare gutter cleaners and gutter cleaning companies, ask whether the drains and the lift are in the price.
What we need to quote a Smyrna property: the address or a site plan, the number of stories, the roof type, the number of buildings, and who the invoice goes to. Send those and we will return a written estimate per building. Clean gutters help keep water away from a home or business, and the ceilings and walls below the roofline stay dry when the gutters are not backing up.
| 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 Smyrna 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.
Here is what we pull out of these systems. Spring brings the seed and pollen load, and the storm season across Tennessee leaves debris in the gutters that the post-storm inspections turn up. Late fall brings the leaf mat. Freeze risk is real here, so a gutter that sags under ice is a gutter nobody cleaned before winter. Those are the cycles our crew plans around.
On flat roofs, parapets, internal drains and scuppers back up silently. Water that stops at a blocked drain can cause roof leaks, and the first thing a tenant notices is a stained ceiling tile or a membrane blister, which is why the monthly check between cleanings exists on those buildings. We would rather find a blocked drain in March than hear about a leak after the next storm.
Restaurant and food service properties need more frequent work than most commercial buildings, because grease and food debris pack the gutter system faster than leaves do, and the managers who call us after a storm often have a second concern about the roof drains. A building with heavy landscape trees around it follows the same pattern, with needles and grit sitting in the downspouts between visits. When the scheduled visit arrives, the crew checks the flow and the clog points before reporting back to the property manager.
The rule we follow is simple: match the visit to what the building holds. Twice a year covers most standard commercial work, and quarterly covers the properties that fill faster than that.
| 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 in Smyrna and the surrounding areas, and the professional gutter cleaning services we offer cover commercial and residential properties alike. The work covers commercial buildings of every size, from single-story retail to multi-building office sites, and we handle residential and commercial jobs with the same crew. A homeowner who books residential gutter cleaning gets the same photo report, and a clean gutter line helps protect your home from the same water damage a commercial building faces.
For a property manager with several buildings, scheduling runs through one contact. You get one call number, one written confirmation for each date, and one invoice set up per building. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact when they arrive, and where tenant hours matter we time the work around them. Lead time is set on the schedule itself, so tell us your gutter cleaning needs and when you need the buildings done, and we will confirm the date in writing. Call (866) 435-6328 to get the schedule started.
The same process covers a portfolio spread across several sites. We offer gutter cleaning on one schedule, and gutter maintenance across the portfolio means one crew, one set of photo reports, and one place to ask about any building. Our cleaning services follow that same schedule for every site.
We quote per building, and the number depends on the linear footage, the height and the gutter type. Both per-foot and per-building numbers come out of the same measurements, but the figure you receive is written for each building before anyone is dispatched. If you are comparing a gutter company's quote, check that it includes the lift and the debris removal.
The lease decides. Read the maintenance clause in yours, because triple net, gross and silent leases put the cost in different places, and the lease section on this page sets out those cases. This is not legal advice; ask the attorney who drafted the lease if the clause is unclear. Whoever the lease names is who we invoice.
On the restaurant and flat-roof properties we service, quarterly is the schedule that keeps the drains clear. Grease and roof debris pack the system faster than leaves do, and the drains back up without warning, so the visit has to come before the blockage does.
Yes. Above three stories we work from a boom or scissor lift with a fall-protection setup, and we confirm the equipment against the building's height before we schedule the job. The lift is matched to the roofline, not a single machine for every site.
Yes. We time the work around tenant hours and follow the on-site access rules you give us. Our crew checks in with the on-site contact on arrival, so there are no surprises for the people inside.
We clear gutters, downspouts, and on flat roofs the roof drains and scuppers as well. Debris is bagged and removed from the site, and any problem we find on the roof is photographed and reported rather than repaired without your approval.
After severe weather across Tennessee, the post-storm call-outs we handle usually turn up debris packed into downspouts and gutter sections pulled loose from their hangers. We inspect, clear what we can, and photograph anything that needs repair, so the property manager knows exactly what to address.
Yes. We set up one invoice per building, so each owner or lease party is billed for its own building, and we run a recurring schedule across the portfolio. Tell us the buildings and the frequency and we will confirm the schedule in writing. Call (866) 435-6328 to get it started.
