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 runs down onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Arizona, most of the homes we service are booked for the spring and fall cleanings.
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.
We price window washing and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Your quote comes from those two facts, and we will tell you the exact figure before anyone climbs a ladder. Our window cleaning services follow those same two numbers.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to work. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take more hands and more buckets. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are quoted by the foot. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning will not remove, and we flag it on the visit instead of pretending otherwise. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras billed later. Every quote covers the exterior only, so the interior and exterior of a house are never billed together. The crew brings its own cleaning solutions, and our washing services include them, so nothing is billed for them later.
The homes that carry the most grime usually have some combination of heavy tree cover, sprinkler lines hitting the glass and a house on a busy road. A house with picture windows across the back and regular cleanings works the same way: the crew clears the gutters first, then does the glass, and the quote follows the window count and the stories. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or send a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house. That is enough for us to give you a real price, and you can say yes or no before the truck is on the way.

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 both gutters and windows twice a year, in the spring and the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across Arizona, the spring visit lands in mid to late June, when the pollen film on south-facing glass and the sticky paste in the gutters have had time to build. The fall visit runs December to early January, after the leaf load has come down and before the wet season. The same calendar works for residential and commercial glass, since the same film lands on both. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we confirm each one by phone.
What we find at each visit is consistent. The fine dust settles as a film on the south-facing glass and packs into the gutter elbows, and by the spring visit it has turned to a paste that does not wash off with a hose. In the fall the leaf mat is the problem, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see clogged gutters that sagged under the weight by the next season. Across Arizona, a monsoon cell can put down a lot of dust and water in an hour, so a house that gets a storm between visits will look worse than its calendar suggests.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and those need the spotting flagged and treated. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more film than the calendar predicts. Multi-story buildings take longer, since the upper runs and glass are reached from a ladder or a pole. Our crew sees these cases often enough that we set a schedule on the first visit based on what the house actually needs.
Two ways to tell the windows need cleaning sooner: a haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon, and dust that shows up as streaks after a light rain. Two ways to tell the gutters need it: water sheeting over the edge during a rain, or a downspout that backs up when the first hard rain hits. A run that backs up can also lead to water damage at the fascia, so call about it early. Either one means the visit is overdue, not that the job failed. Waiting for a haze is the slow way; a visit that removes dirt before the next rain carries it down the glass is the better timing.
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 crew has worked across Scottsdale, and the fastest way to schedule service is to call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline. Give us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we return a written estimate with a date we can hold. Lead time depends on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year, when the leaf and dust loads peak, our calendar fills faster, so booking early keeps your slot. We call before we come, so there are no surprises on the driveway.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and the windows and gutters are cleaned from outside the house. We clean every window we can reach from outside, and if we see something that needs a different trade, we photograph it and report it, and we do not sell you anything on the ladder. Our window cleaners clear the gutters and downspouts on the same visit, and our crew is set up for professional window cleaning and cleaning services on a regular schedule. We keep the same people on the same route when we can, so the work stays consistent from one visit to the next. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal.
Yes. The same two people do the residential window and the gutters, so both are handled in one visit. We clean the gutters first, then the glass, because gutter runoff would otherwise run down clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text before we book. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the front, and we will quote the job in writing.
On residential properties in Scottsdale, the outside carries most of the dust. Dust film, rain dust and sprinkler spotting all land on the exterior, and the same is true of condos, so cleaning the outside alone is the part that makes a visible difference. That is where we remove dirt before it can settle into the frame.
Across Arizona, most of our customers book for mid to late June and for December to early January. Those are the windows when the pollen and leaf loads are at their heaviest, and the calendar fills quickly.
No, that is the reason we do gutters first and glass last. When clogged gutters are cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall, so we rinse the wall and wait a few minutes before we start on the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks and other detailed work are quoted separately, and we tell you before the crew starts if that applies to your house.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not pressure wash, so the work stays on the outside of the house.
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 leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
