Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Arizona, most of our customers book it in the spring and again in the fall, after the seasons have left their marks on the roof and the glass.
Priced by stories, not by a visit. The bundle costs less than two trips, and the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge, and we work it out from the stories and the approximate window count. Doing gutters and downspouts together with the outside glass in one visit is the cheaper way to get both done, since our window washing and the gutter run share one crew and one setup. Once we have your stories and window count, we can tell you what the bundle comes to before anyone schedules a day, and that number is priced against the same washing services and window cleaning services you would book on their own.
On our jobs, a few things change the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk slows the crew down. Oversized panes and a lot of small windows both add time, so we count every window on the outside before we quote. A run of clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves takes longer to clear than one that was cleaned last season. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are part of the count. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem, because cleaning will not remove it, and we say so on the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We quote the interior and exterior glass as separate scopes, so the bundle number covers the outside only.
What we see most often is a house where the gutters have sat too long, and the glass below has picked up grime and runoff from the same roof. Cleaning both in one pass is how we keep that water from working back onto the windows, and it lets us remove dirt from the gutter before it reaches the glass. On condos and residential properties with a shared roofline, the same pattern shows up, and the crew works them in the same order. Across Arizona, the first thing we ask is for the stories and a photo of the front of the house sent by text, because that is enough for us to tell you the likely number and the likely scope. Call (866) 435-6328 for the written estimate before you book, so you know the number before anyone climbs a ladder.

For context, nationally. Angi puts the average US gutter cleaning at $168, most homeowners paying $119 to $234 (Angi, 2026). Exterior-only window cleaning runs roughly $4 to $10 per window, or $100 to $250 for a typical home, with $3 to $5 per window more on upper stories (Angi, HomeGuide, via Google AI Overview, Oct 2026). Priced by stories, the most common model, a two-story gutter cleaning sits around $150 to $300 nationally. If a quote you are holding sits far outside these, ask what is driving it.
On every house we work, the first scoop out of a gutter ends up on the wall below it. We put the glass last so it ends up there once.
Gutters first, glass last. That is the order on every job our crew does, and it is the reason we book both with one crew instead of sending two.
What we see from the ladder. When we clear a run, the leaves, the grit and the black water that sits under them come down the wall and across any window below it. Flushing a downspout throws more of it, in a stream, onto the panes beside the outlet. If the glass was washed first, someone has to wash them again before we are off the ladder. So we do the roof blow-off, clear the gutters, flush every downspout, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass. The panes under the downspout outlets are the last ones we touch on the house.
Two things we do differently from a window-only crew. We rinse the siding under each run before we move to the glass, so nothing left on the wall washes down onto it in the first rain. And we do the top-floor glass from the same ladder position as the gutter run, one setup per side of the house, which is where the bundle saving comes from: no second trip, no second setup.
Downspouts flushed, screens rinsed, sills wiped, bags hauled. None of it shows up as a line item.
Gutters. Roof blow-off where debris sits above the gutter line. Every run hand-cleared, not just the visible stretch from the ground. Every downspout flushed with water until it runs clear, and a blocked one cleared on the spot where it can be reached from above. A downspout that feeds a buried drain line is checked at the outlet; clearing the buried line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it. Debris bagged and taken away. Before-and-after photos of each run, sent to you before the crew leaves.
Windows, exterior only. Every reachable pane on the outside of the house, cleaned with a water-fed pole and purified water so the glass dries without streaks or towel lint. Frames wiped. Screens taken down, hand-rinsed and put back on request. Sills wiped. Upper-story windows done from the pole, not from a ladder leaned on the siding.
Not included, and we say so up front. Interior glass. Hard-water or sprinkler staining etched into the glass, which needs a separate mineral treatment and is quoted after the crew sees it. Post-construction paint, stickers or stucco. Skylights and solar panels. Pressure washing of siding, decks or driveways. Gutter guards: if a run is covered, lifting and reseating the guard adds time and is quoted by the foot before the visit, never on the day.
Twice a year for both, and the same two months, which is why one visit covers it.
On our Gold Canyon jobs, most of our customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. That is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense for these homes. Keeping up with regular cleanings in spring and fall catches what the season left behind, and the two visits together keep the roof and the glass in step.
In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass is the first thing we see, and the pollen paste in the gutters is what clogs the downspouts. Plain water lifts most of that pollen, and cleaning solutions come out only for the grime that is left behind. On picture windows and every other residential window, that film shows first, since there is so much glass to catch it. In fall, the leaf load is what fills the gutters, and wet leaves that sit through the winter are what sag a run. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates a little, so we book against the house, not the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and those need a closer look. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up extra grime on the glass. When we see one of these on the first visit, we tell you what we think the schedule should be, and you decide.
The sign that windows need it is a haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. Clean windows reflect the sky instead of the film, and you can see that from the street. If you see either one between visits, text us a photo.
Most two-story homes are done in a morning. You do not need to be there, and you get the photos either way.
The crew calls the day before with a two-hour arrival window, and again when they are on the way.
How long. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical house. Exterior windows on the same house run about the same again or a little more, so plan on a morning for a two-story home and most of a day for three stories or a house with a lot of glass. Gutters that have not been touched in years, steep roofs and wraparound porches run longer.
Before the crew arrives. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, so the glass is dry and the ground is not mud. Move cars off the driveway if windows face it. Keep pets inside while ladders are up. Unlock side gates. Nothing else; the crew brings its own water and power.
While they work. Gutters first, glass last, as described above. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. If something cannot be reached safely (a pane over a sunroom roof, a gutter run behind a tree limb) the crew photographs it and tells you rather than guessing.
After. Photos of every gutter run and the finished glass, sent by text or email before the crew leaves. The invoice matches the number quoted on the phone.
Send a photo and we tell you what it is. No argument about whether it rained.
Streaks. Purified water dries clean; a streak means something was missed, and that is on us. Send us a photo of it and we tell you what it is.
Spots that come back. Round white spots that return a day after cleaning are mineral deposits from sprinklers or hard water etched into the glass, not dirt. Cleaning cannot remove them; a mineral treatment can. The crew flags it on the visit so you are not surprised.
Rain the next day. Rain is distilled water and does not dirty clean glass by itself; what spots glass after rain is dust already on the frame or screen washing down. That is why frames and screens are done, not just the pane. If it looks worse after a storm, send the photo and we look at it.
Overflow after a cleaning. If a gutter runs clean and still sheets water over the edge in the next rain, the cause is slope, a sagging hanger or an undersized downspout, not debris. The crew notes what it saw and tells you; cleaning it again will not fix it, and we will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Your house. Ladder stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip or dents the siding. Screens go back in the window they came out of.
Neighborhood by neighborhood, with a lead time we say out loud, and a call before the truck turns in.
Our cleaning services for Gold Canyon are booked through a phone or text estimate. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will schedule service from the estimate. We set a slot from there, and the lead time is what the calendar shows for your area on the day you call. Most people hear back the same day they reach out, and the crew calls before it comes, so you are not left guessing about the arrival time.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season. Our calendar fills in those weeks, so the earlier you call, the more choice you get on the day. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. This is professional window cleaning, and the crew does not come inside; it sends photos of every run and every pane before it leaves. Windows inside are a separate job and are not part of this visit. Clean gutters and clean glass also do a lot for curb appeal, which is one reason people book both together.
We work across residential and commercial sites, and residential properties get the same order as any commercial site: gutters first, glass last. A residential window on a second floor takes more time on the ladder, and multi-story buildings do too, so we plan for both on the estimate. A gutter that is clogged takes the water somewhere else, and that is where water damage starts, so the sooner we get to it the better. Plenty of window cleaners only do the glass, so the gutters get missed and the roof water keeps running down the wall.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We clean the gutters first, then the outside glass, in one visit, so you do not have to book two companies or wait for two appointments.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text before anything is scheduled. We do not guess it from the street.
For a residential window, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the outside is usually where the haze comes from. Once those are off, clean windows show the difference from the street. The inside is a separate job we do not do on this visit.
Our customers here book in the spring and again in the fall, from the same pollen and leaf seasons we see on the houses. Across Arizona, spring and fall are the windows most people choose. Call (866) 435-6328 to get a slot on the calendar.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. When the glass is washed first, the water from the roof runs back down the wall and across the clean panes, which is why we do not work in that order.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, using mild cleaning solutions. Tracks are included in the exterior visit, and we tell you on the estimate if anything needs more work.
We clean the exterior only on this visit. The interior and exterior glass are separate scopes, so windows inside are quoted on their own, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. The scope on your quote stays with the outside glass and the gutters.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
