Gutter installs and cleaning routes, signed without the callbacks
Gutter work splits into two businesses. Installs are a one-time sale with lots of small choices: size, color, downspout placement, guards. Cleaning is a route that comes back every spring and fall, usually while the homeowner is at work. SignMaster handles both: contracts signed on the ladder side of the house, and a whole route renewed from one spreadsheet.

What gutter companies get signed
- Install contractLinear feet, gutter size and profile, material and color, hangers, downspouts, end caps and removal of the old system. Start from the estimate acceptance form.
- Downspout planWhere each downspout drops and where the water goes. A simple drawing the homeowner initials prevents the classic callback.
- Gutter guard saleGuard type, coverage, warranty terms and whether cleaning is included afterward.
- Fascia and soffit repairRot found when the old gutters come down, priced and signed as a change order before you replace it.
- Cleaning agreementSpring, fall or both, what's included, flushing downspouts, and access when nobody's home.
- Underground drain workBurying downspout lines, with a line confirming utility locates and the homeowner's private lines marked first.
The install, start to finish

Measure and choose
Fill the estimate on your phone: number fields for footage and downspouts, a dropdown for color, a radio group for 5-inch or 6-inch, and a calculated total.
- 2
Mark the downspouts
Sketch the house and mark each downspout, then scan the sketch with the iPhone and iPad app and add it to the envelope with an initials field.

Sign on the spot
Send it and choose Sign in person. Homeowners who'd rather wait can sign the same envelope from a link, and reminders follow up.

Handle the rot
When the fascia board crumbles behind the old gutter, send a change order from your phone and get it signed before you rebuild.
Selling guards at the table?
Gutter guards are often sold in the home, and home sales can come with a three-day right to cancel. Put the notice your lawyer approves in the contract template. See the three-day right to cancel.
Renew the cleaning route before the leaves fall
Cleaning customers sign up once and expect you every season. In late summer, export last year's cleaning customers as a CSV with their name, email, address and this year's price, and bulk send the cleaning agreement. Each row becomes its own envelope, with the price printed in a labeled text box. The results file shows who has signed, so you can build the route from the signed list.
- New customers sign up from a public signing link on your website or a QR code on your yard sign, each in their own envelope.
- Access notes like gate codes, dogs and where to put the ladder go in text fields, and the Responses tab on paid plans lists them all in one table.
- Nobody home? The agreement already says you'll come while they're out, so the crew doesn't wait at the door.
- Property managers with a street of rentals can sign one agreement listing every address. A signer group lets any manager on their team approve, and a CC keeps the owner informed.
Pricing
One estimator can use Solo for $15 a month, with unlimited envelopes and bulk sends of up to 250 customers at a time. Crew is $49 a month for 5 people and bulk sends up to 500 rows. Extra seats are $8 a month. Start on Free with 3 envelopes, or get 14 days of Crew free. Compare plans.
What SignMaster doesn't do
- It doesn't measure roofs or calculate footage from photos.
- It doesn't schedule cleaning routes.
- It doesn't collect payment or run financing.
- It emails signing links; copy a link to text a customer.
Questions? Answers.
Can I renew every gutter cleaning customer at once?
Yes. Bulk send the cleaning agreement from a CSV of last season's customers. Each gets their own envelope with their address and price filled in.
How do I handle rotted fascia found during an install?
Send a change order from a template with the repair and the price, and have the homeowner sign on your phone before you replace the board.
Can homeowners approve downspout placement?
Yes. Scan or upload a sketch with each downspout marked, add it to the envelope and ask for initials on that page.
Can a property manager sign for several rental houses?
Yes. List the addresses in one cleaning agreement, or send one per house from a CSV. A signer group lets any one of the manager's team sign for the company.
Do customers need to be home to sign?
No. They can sign from a link on any phone or computer, without an account, before the crew arrives.
