Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We work gutters first and glass last, so the dirty water from the gutters never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a bundled visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Across California, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, which is when the glass and the gutters need it most.
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.

Several things move the quote once our crew is on site. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time and more equipment. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before any water can run. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run underneath. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate problem that no cleaning removes, and we say so before we quote it.
Cleaning the gutters and downspouts is one job, and the screens and sills go with it. Flushing, rinsing and wiping are part of the visit, not extras we bill later. Every downspout gets flushed until the water runs clear, so you do not have a surprise on the next rain.
On our Azusa jobs, the quote that surprises people most is the one with grime built up on the glass from a year without a visit. The crew has to remove dirt that has baked on through a season, and the runoff from the roof has usually left a line along the sill that takes a few more minutes to lift. Window washing services for condos and multi-unit buildings follow the same logic, scaled by the number of windows on each floor. To get your exact figure, text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with the number.
| 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 gutter and window cleaning in spring and fall, and that calendar is what makes one crew on one visit sensible. The same calendar applies to residential and commercial buildings, since the leaf load and the air do not check the zoning.
In the spring visit, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed into the gutters are the first things the crew sees. By the fall visit, the leaf load has usually come down and sits in the runs, and wind seasons move the exact dates a little from year to year. Houses under heavy tree cover over the roof, houses with a sprinkler line that hits the glass, and houses near a busy road or active construction tend to need a third visit, because the spots and grit come back between cleanings. For those houses, regular cleanings on a shorter cycle usually make more sense than the usual spring and fall booking.
Haze on the interior and exterior glass often shows up only when the sun is low. On the outside, that is usually the sign the windows need attention, and picture windows show it most, since one large pane has no frame to hide the haze. Plain cleaning solutions will not lift the mineral spotting a sprinkler leaves behind, so the crew checks for it on the first visit. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting 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.
We book window cleaning services and gutter jobs through a phone or text estimate at (866) 435-6328, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Our calendar fills in the two busiest stretches of the year, when the spring bloom and the leaf load peak, so booking early is the way to get a particular week. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come, so you know when the crew is on the way. The visit does not include windows inside the house.
We work with professional window cleaning standards on multi-story buildings and single-family homes alike. Runs with clogged gutters get cleared before the first rain, which keeps water damage off the fascia and protects curb appeal. Our window cleaners work from a water-fed pole on upper stories and from a boom or scissor lift where a pole cannot reach.
Yes, the same two people do both in one visit on residential properties. We clean the gutters first and then the glass, so nothing from the gutters lands on the clean windows we have already finished.
We do not quote a figure without knowing the house. The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and a count of every window on the outside, and you can get it by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text with a photo of the front.
On our Azusa jobs, the outside carries the grime from the air, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and those are what make a clean interior window look hazy from the street. The outside is where most of the grime is, so it is a good place to start.
Across California most customers book in spring and fall. In Azusa, the spring visit lands after the spring bloom and the fall visit after the leaves come down, and you can schedule service by text with a photo of the front of the house.
No, we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and black water come down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior visit. Tracks are included on the exterior side; the inside tracks are not part of this visit.
No, this visit covers exterior glass only, and we do not do interior windows or pressure washing on it.
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.
