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 that falls out of the troughs ends up on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Our crew does this work for homeowners in American Canyon every spring and fall, which is when most of our local customers 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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Our window cleaning services for residential properties are quoted from those same two numbers. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings, meaning a third story or a steep roof, take longer to reach safely. Window washing on oversized picture windows takes more time than standard panes, especially when grime has built up on the sill. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more passes. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the trough can be cleared. Hard-water spotting left by sprinklers does not come off with cleaning alone, and we tell you that before we start.
On our American Canyon jobs, the homeowners who call us most are ones whose houses have had the same window washing services for years, or none at all, and whose gutters have never had a regular cleanings schedule. The simplest way to get an exact number is to text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, or call (866) 435-6328. We can often estimate the interior and exterior glass together from that photo, and we confirm the final figure before the crew is booked.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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 California, most of our customers book gutters and exterior windows together twice a year, in spring and in fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across California the spring visit lands in mid to late June, and on our American Canyon jobs the fall visit falls in late November to December.
At the spring visit we usually find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters, which is why the window and gutter work happens together. The crew uses cleaning solutions on the pollen film and rinses it off the frames before the glass is done. In the fall we find the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the troughs through the rainy months, and that is how clogged gutters start and water damage begins at the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, since most of the year's rain falls across a handful of days. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction usually calls for a third visit.
You will notice the sign that windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only see when the sun is low. Gutters and downspouts need attention when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down 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 crew works across American Canyon and the surrounding stretch of Napa County, and we serve residential and commercial properties there. We book by phone or text: you send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm a time window before the crew is scheduled. Lead time depends on the season. Our calendar fills first in the spring and fall busy windows, so booking early helps. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work.
Our window cleaners work from a water-fed pole with purified water, which dries clean without streaks, and our professional window cleaning crew checks every window and sill on the outside of the house. Gutters and downspouts are cleared on the same visit by the same crew. Schedule service with us by calling (866) 435-6328 or texting a photo of the roofline, and we will confirm the cleaning services you need for curb appeal on your home.
Yes. Our crew does both jobs in one visit on any residential window job, gutters first and glass last. The same two people clear the troughs, flush the downspouts and then clean the outside of the windows, so you are not paying for two separate trips.
The price for residential properties comes from the number of stories and the size of the house, and we give it over the phone or by text. Text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will confirm the figure before booking.
In American Canyon, condos and houses alike collect pollen on the outside of the glass in spring, and dust and sprinkler spray build up through the year, faster than the inside does. Cleaning the exterior on its own still helps remove dirt from the frames and sills.
Most of our local customers book in spring and fall, in the mid to late June and late November to December windows. Booking early helps, since those are the weeks our calendar fills first.
No, because we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. Leaves, grit and dirty water come down the wall when a run is cleared, so the glass waits until the troughs and downspouts are done.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the exterior cleaning when they are reachable from the outside.
No. On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, and we do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing. If you need those, tell us when you call and we will say whether we can add them.
You do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn sprinklers off the night before so runoff does not wash across the glass, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
