Yes, the same two people clean your 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 gutters ends up on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together costs less than two separate trips. Across California, many of our customers book this work in spring and fall, when pollen and leaves are heaviest on the glass and in the gutters.
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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Several things move the quote once our crew is on the house: a third story or a steep roof, a residential window count with oversized panes, clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Gutters left to overflow can also lead to water damage along the fascia, and we flag that on the estimate. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across California, the quote is the same kind of conversation: stories, window count, and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. That is enough for us to tell you the number before anyone climbs a ladder. Tell us if the back of the house sits higher than the front, because a walk-out or a sloped lot changes how many runs need the lift.
Our crew has cleaned clean windows and packed gutters on many homes, and the pattern is consistent: the houses that cost more are the ones where the glass and the gutters both carry years of buildup. A window washing visit on its own leaves the gutter grime to run back down the glass, so doing both in one visit is the cheaper path. We use a water-fed pole for the upper panes, so most glass is done without a ladder against the siding.
Professional window cleaning is the same work whether the house is small or large; the difference is the time it takes to reach every window and every run. On multi-story buildings and tall houses, the lift is the largest variable, and we say so on the estimate call. Clean glass and clear gutters both show from the street, so curb appeal is the usual reason owners book both.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will book a date once we have your story count.

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.
Most of our Burbank customers book both jobs twice a year, in the spring month when the pollen film builds on south-facing glass and the spring seed drop packs the downspouts, and in the fall month after the leaves have come down. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Most of our cleaning services in Burbank are booked on that calendar. The sticky paste of seed and grit in the gutters is the heaviest thing we clear in spring, and the wet leaf mat is the heaviest in fall.
Houses under heavy tree cover usually need a third visit, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves round white spots that come back a day after we clean them, and those houses also need more frequent visits. A home near a busy road or a construction site collects a fine film that shows up on the glass within weeks. Regular cleanings on the twice-a-year schedule work without trouble for customers with the least trees and no sprinkler problem.
The sign that windows need cleaning again is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need clearing is water sheeting over the edge in a rain. If you see either one between visits, text us a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which one it is. To schedule service, send the story count with that photo.
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 cleans the gutters and the exterior windows of residential properties across Burbank, and we schedule the visit around the stories and the window count you give us. To schedule service, call or text us those numbers and a photo of the house front. Our window cleaning services and the gutter work are booked in the same call. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, because the crew does not come inside. The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall months when leaves and grit build up, and our calendar fills faster then, so an early estimate helps.
We clean the gutters and downspouts, every residential window on the outside of the house, the frames and the sills in a single visit. Hard-water staining and heavy dirt that has baked onto the glass take more time, and we note it on the estimate so the slot fits. Our washing services use purified water on the glass to remove dirt, and it dries without streaks when the work is done properly.
Condos and smaller multi-unit buildings get the same visit structure, with the runoff from each run checked at the outlet. Some buyers search for residential and commercial window cleaning as one job, but the two have different access rules, and this page covers the residential visit only. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will tell you when a slot opens.
Yes. Our crew cleans the gutters and the outside glass in one visit, so you book one appointment and deal with one team. We do the gutters first and the glass last, which keeps the debris from landing on panes we have already cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without those details. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the number on the call.
Yes, because the outside carries the spring film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots. Those build up on the glass between visits and they are what makes the windows look hazy in low sun. Interior and exterior cleaning are separate jobs, and our visit covers only the exterior.
Most of our customers here book in the spring month when the film builds on the glass and in the fall month after the leaves come down. Book early in those months, because our calendar fills faster then.
Not when the gutters are done first. When we clear a run, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so we rinse the siding and wait a few minutes before we touch the glass. That order is the reason we keep both jobs together.
Screens are rinsed with plain water, not cleaning solutions, and put back in the window they came from, sills are wiped, and frames are cleaned as part of the visit. None of that is billed as an extra. Tracks and picture windows are included in the same pass.
No. On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, so we do not clean the windows inside the house. We do not do pressure washing on this visit.
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 unlock the side gate. The crew sends photos of every gutter run and the finished glass before they leave.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
