Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Arizona, our crews book most often in the spring and fall, when the leaf load and tree debris are heaviest. Tell us your stories and window count and we will give you the number you will be charged.
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 on the phone is the number we charge. We price by how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows face outside, and the bundle in one visit comes in below booking the gutters and the glass as two separate jobs. Nothing is quoted by the foot or per pane in a way that changes once we are on the ladder.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are consistent. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk, means more time on a boom or scissor lift. Oversized panes and picture windows take longer to reach and rinse properly. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take more hand clearing. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are quoted before the visit. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate problem, and no cleaning removes it. Cleaning gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a typical visit we look at the front of the house first, then the roofline, and then each side. A photo of the front of the house sent by text gets you a closer number than a guess over the phone, and it takes about a minute.
What we see in a few seconds on the roof often matters more than the story count alone. Heavy paste of needles in the elbows of the downspouts, a leaf mat two inches deep, or a run that is already holding water behind the fascia all add time. We photograph what we find and tell you before we start if it changes the job.
For a house with mature trees over the roof, the work is not just a bigger version of a flat job. Needles and grit pack the lower runs and then wash across the glass below, so the two jobs are better done together. That is the logic behind the bundle, and it is the same reason we walk the gutters before we look at the glass.
For the cleaning solutions we use on the glass, the mix depends on what is sitting there. Grime from a dusty road, pollen film, and hard-water haze each need something a little different, so we pick the mix on the day to remove dirt without leaving a film.
On Oro Valley jobs, residential and commercial properties come through the same quote process, and the number is set the same way. A small residential window job and a site with multi-story buildings are priced from what is on the ground, not from a rate sheet.
Our crew has done work where a single house had a clogged downspout feeding a buried line, and the owner had not realized the water was running into the foundation area until we flagged it. We report that, photograph it, and quote clearing it separately rather than folding it into the window job.
Regular cleanings keep the number lower over time, because the grime and gutter debris do not build up into a heavier job. Most customers who book on a schedule find the visits get quicker, not longer.
If you are not sure how many stories your house has, send a photo of the front and we can tell from the picture. Asking for an estimate takes a few minutes by phone or text, and there is no charge for it.

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, most of our customers book cleaning services for both jobs twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense on a regular schedule.
In the spring, what we find on the glass is a film of dust on the south-facing panes and a sticky paste of tree residue in the gutters. In the fall, it is the leaf load and the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs after the trees drop. Storm and wind seasons can shift those dates a few weeks in either direction, so we book from what the roof looks like rather than from the calendar alone. Across Arizona, a monsoon storm can drop a lot of water in an hour, and a clogged gutter is how that water turns into water damage at the fascia and the wall below.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the downspouts between visits, and can leave clogged gutters behind. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a mineral treatment rather than another wipe. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust that washes onto the glass faster than the regular schedule catches it. Multi-story buildings take longer to reach, so we plan those visits around the upper runs.
Professional window cleaning services are not a one-time event for most homes, because the outside of the glass picks up what the street and the weather put on it. Regular visits keep the curb appeal up without a long catch-up job.
You will know windows need cleaning when the haze shows up only when the sun is low, and you can see the film on the glass from the street. You will know gutters need clearing when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout.
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 crews have worked across Oro Valley, and we book window and gutter cleaning for residential properties, including condos, and clean windows at homes throughout the city, including every window on the outside of the house. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text: call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the house front with the number of stories. We will give you a time window and call before we come.
Lead time for a slot is set by our calendar, and the busy windows are the two seasons when leaves and grit are heaviest. If you want a specific day during those months, it is worth asking early so we can schedule service without a long wait.
Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we send photos of every gutter run and the finished glass before the truck leaves.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two people. We clean the gutters first, flushing every downspout, and then clean the outside of the glass, so nothing dirty from the runs washes onto clean windows.
We do not give a figure on the page because it depends on the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number from the stories and the window count.
On our jobs in this area, the outside carries the most of the grime: pollen film, dust from the road and sprinkler spots. Cleaning the windows inside would not remove any of that, so the outside is where the visible haze comes from.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, when the leaf load and the grit are heaviest. If you want a specific date in those months, ask for a written estimate early so the slot is held.
Not on our jobs, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. If the glass was washed first, the runoff from the gutters would streak it again, and someone would have to come back.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit when they are reachable from the outside.
We do not clean inside the windows or offer pressure washing services on this visit. Some crews quote interior and exterior glass together, but ours is exterior only, along with the gutters.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
