The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your 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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. On our Show Low jobs, most customers book this in spring and fall, when the leaves are heaviest, so call (866) 435-6328 for a quote before you book.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from your stories and window count rather than from a guess at the house. Our crew works from that count, so tell us how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows face the outside before we talk numbers.
On our Show Low jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A steep roof or a third story means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift for the upper runs. Every window on the outside gets a full wash, so a large window count or oversized panes take longer to clean to a finish. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take more hands and more haul-off. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers leaves marks that cleaning alone does not remove. Gutters and downspouts are cleared in one pass, and screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras.
For a house with a lot of glass, the window washing and the washing services sit on the same visit as the gutters, so the crew moves once around the house instead of twice. Cleaning the exterior of picture windows and window cleaning services on larger houses follow the same order. Dirt and grime that sit on the glass and the gutters are the reason we rinse the siding under each run before moving on, so the runoff does not carry grime back onto the clean glass. We remove dirt from the gutter in the same pass, which is why the gutters go first.
Condos and multi-story buildings are priced per building, not per unit, so the stories and window count are counted across the whole structure. Tell us which side faces the road and which faces the trees, and we will tell you what that adds before the crew is booked.
What we need from you to get the exact number is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and the approximate window count, or text us a photo of the front of the house. That is enough for us to give you a written number before we come, and the crew arrives knowing what to expect on the roof and at the glass.

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 Show Low jobs, most customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. The spring visit lands after the seed drop, and the fall visit lands after the leaves are down and before the first hard freeze.
What we find at each visit follows the season. In the spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass, and seed husks and needles pack into the gutters and the elbows of the downspouts. In the fall, the leaf load builds in the runs and holds water against the fascia. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, so we book against what the house is doing rather than the calendar alone. Cleaning solutions go on the glass only after the grime is rinsed off the frame, which is why the order of the visit matters.
Some houses need a third visit beyond the two regular cleanings. Heavy tree cover over the roof is the most common reason, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a separate look at the water. A house close to a busy road or to construction picks up more grime on the glass and the runs, so we see it more often. Residential and commercial properties follow the same logic, and the schedule is set by what we find rather than a fixed rule.
If cases are supplied for Show Low, the pattern is easy to see. One customer with no trees is on twice a year and does well with that. Another under trees, or with sprinkler spotting on the glass, is on three or four visits a year, and the glass stays clear between them. We tell you which of those your lot needs after the first visit.
You will know the windows need it when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a 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.
We clean gutters and the outside of windows across Show Low, and the calendar is the same for every neighborhood in the city. To schedule service, call or text with the stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a slot once the count is in hand. Lead time is set by the crew calendar, and we tell you the first open date when you call rather than promising a faster one.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring bloom and the fall leaf drop. Our calendar fills in those weeks, so the earlier you call, the sooner the crew can come out. We keep room for the cleaning services people book for the first time, and we keep room for the repeat customers who want the same month each year. Commercial and residential properties both fit in the same calendar, and we book by the building rather than by the hour.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the windows inside the house are not part of it. We call before we come so the truck is not a surprise in the driveway. If a window is shaded by a tree limb or a gutter run is blocked by a parked car, we say so on the call and move the slot.
We work with professional window cleaning crews on the same standard and we take the calls from owners who are looking for a single company to handle the outside of the house and the gutters together. The point is clean windows and curb appeal that last between visits, and clogged gutters are the thing that most often causes water damage on the fascia and the walls below them. We clean the gutters first so that the glass is not dirtied again on the way out.
Yes, the same crew cleans the gutters and the outside of each residential window in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text once we have them. The number we give is the number we charge.
On our Show Low jobs the outside carries the film of dust that settles in spring, the rain dust, and the sprinkler spots, and those are the things that cloud the glass from outside. Cleaning the inside does not remove any of them, so the outside is where the clarity comes from.
Most of our Show Low customers book in the spring pollen drop and again in the fall leaf drop, so those are the weeks to call. Book a date with the estimate and we hold the slot.
No, the crew clears the gutters, flushes every downspout, and lets the wall drip before anyone touches the glass. That order is the reason the gutters go first.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included on the window side of the visit.
Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. We do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash the house on it. If you want those, tell us and we will quote them separately.
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, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
