Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing from the roof lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Arizona, most of our window and gutter jobs are booked for spring and fall, when leaf debris and dust build up fastest on the glass and in the runs.
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 direct answer is this: we price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, a window and gutter cleaning booked in one visit costs less than two separate jobs, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Each house size gets a starting figure, and the exact number comes from the stories and window count, so call (866) 435-6328 or text us those details.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk adds time on the ladder. A high window count, or oversized picture windows that need more care, adds time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue: no cleaning removes it, so we say so up front. Pollen film comes off with the same cleaning solutions as the rest of the glass, so it does not add a line item. Regular cleanings keep the time down, since the first visit to a neglected house is usually the longest. Residential and commercial buildings are quoted on the same stories and window basis. Quotes for interior and exterior work are separate, and this visit covers exterior glass only. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
A two-story home with a lot of picture windows and a sprinkler line hitting the lower glass can take longer at the glass than the gutters, because the spotting needs a separate pass. That is the kind of detail we look for when we ask you for the number of stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house by text. The more exact those three things are, the closer the number we give you will be.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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.
Across Arizona, the common plan is two visits a year, once in spring and once in fall, and one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on this calendar. Our window cleaning services follow those two windows. Across Arizona, the spring visit lands in mid to late June, after the spring dust has settled on south-facing glass and packed a paste into the gutters. The fall visit runs December to early January, after the leaves come down and before the cold snaps. Monsoon storms across Arizona can move either date, so we confirm the timing when we call.
What we find at each visit is consistent. In the pollen months the glass carries a fine yellow film, and the downspout elbows are packed with paste. By the fall visit, clogged gutters are the usual problem, since leaf load and wet debris block the runs. A house with heavy tree cover over the roof may need a third visit, because needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between cleanings. The same goes for a sprinkler line that hits the glass, since those spots return a day after cleaning, and for a house near a busy road or a construction site, where the dust settles fast. Runs left to overflow are the usual route to water damage at the fascia and sills. Multi-story buildings and homes with a third story take more ladder time, so the visit is planned around the ladder position. Window cleaners who price by stories and count are doing the same math we do, and professional window cleaning on a tall house takes the same ladder planning. Windows inside are not part of this visit, so the haze you see from inside often comes from the outside glass.
A house with no trees and one under mature cover need different plans. The first can stay on the twice-a-year plan. The second, on three or four visits, stays cleaner through the year because the work is repeated before the debris has time to set. Curb appeal holds up better that way too. Either way, the sign that windows need attention is haze you only see when the sun is low, and the sign that gutters need attention is water sheeting over the edge in rain. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the house to book a date.
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.
Booking a window and gutter cleaning starts with a quick estimate by phone or text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a number before we set a date. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the same details. The two busy windows of the year are the spring dust season and the fall leaf drop, and in those weeks our calendar fills, so the earlier you call, the sooner the slot.
Our crew keeps clean windows and clear runs on every visit, and we can tell you which neighborhoods we cover when you call. We work on residential properties, from a single residential window job to a whole house. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, and we tell you what time the crew expects to arrive. Every window gets a look, and the sill is wiped on each one. Whether it is one window or every window and the gutters, the booking follows the same steps, so the estimate, the photo and the date are all confirmed before the truck leaves the yard.
Yes, the same crew does both for houses and condos, gutters first and glass last, in one visit. Our two people carry the ladders, the water and the gear for both jobs, so there is no second trip.
The price is set by stories and size. We give you the number by phone or text from those details, and the number we quote is the number we charge.
The outside of a window carries grime, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside does not show, so cleaning only the inside rarely covers what is on the glass.
Spring and fall are the usual booking windows, after the dust and leaf drop, which is when the glass and runs are at their worst.
Gutters and downspouts come first, because runoff and black water run down the wall and across any window below. Washing the glass first means washing it again.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside, and we remove dirt from them as we go; if they are caked with grime we tell you before we start.
Our window cleaning services on this visit cover exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside, and our washing services do not include pressure washing.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, unlock the side gate and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
