Yes, 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 Ceres jobs, most customers book this in spring and fall, when the pollen and leaf loads are heaviest, so the schedule fills up.
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 in one visit costs less than booking gutters and windows separately. Our window cleaning services follow that rule on every house, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The washing services on the glass are set from the story count and the window count, and we do not quote the interior and exterior together, since this price covers exterior glass only. Text a photo of the front of the house with your story count and we will send a written estimate.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes more time on the ladder. Oversized picture windows and a high count of panes add to the glass work. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line sits in the glass, and no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a Ceres job last spring, the quote came up because the house had two stories, a full row of window washing on the south side, and a gutter run that had not been opened in about three years. Once the crew had the ladders up, the road grime and packed seeds set the time, and the customer booked the bundle so both jobs happened in one visit. For your exact number, call or text us your story count and a photo of the front of the house. Our crew handles cleanings of every size, from a single run of gutters to a multi-story building with regular cleanings on a set schedule.
| 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.
On our Ceres jobs, most customers book both twice a year, in spring after the bloom drop and in fall after the leaves come down, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across California the spring and fall pattern is the same, but the dates shift with the weather.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and catkin paste packed in the gutter elbows. In fall the leaf load is the main problem, and wet leaf mats hold water against the fascia. Clogged gutters that sit full all winter are where water damage usually starts, because the overflow runs down the wall and under the siding. We bring our own cleaning solutions to every job, and residential and commercial glass both get the same rinse before the solution goes on. Storm and wind seasons move the dates, so we book around the forecast rather than a fixed day.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up extra grime on the glass. On multi-story buildings each side needs its own ladder setup, which is why they take longer than a house. For those houses we suggest a mid-year check and a close look at the gutters before the next storm season.
The sign windows need cleaning is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in a rain. Both are easy to spot from the driveway. Since windows inside the house are not part of this visit, haze on that glass is a separate job.
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 cleaned houses across Ceres, and we serve the whole city rather than one corner of it. Our cleaning services work the same way everywhere. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with your number of stories, and you can schedule service on the same call. Most of the schedule fills in the two busy windows of the year, from the spring bloom drop and the fall leaf fall, so book early for those months.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we arrive in the window we agreed on. Our crew brings all the cleaning solutions and ladders it needs, so there is nothing for you to set out. Professional window cleaning on a single house or a full row of residential properties follows the same standard, with the same care on every window and every run.
Whether you have one house or a building, we handle every window and every downspout on the site. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, and both get done on the same visit. If something outside the job needs attention, we photograph it and report it to you, but we do not sell any repair.
Yes. The same two-person crew cleans the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. Doing both at once means one setup and one trip.
We quote from the number of stories and the size of the house. Condos get the same treatment: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the building, and we will send the number in writing.
Yes, on most residential window jobs here. The outside carries tree dust, dust from the road and sprinkler spots, and those build up between visits whether the inside looks clean or not.
Most of our Ceres customers book in spring and fall. Those are the months the leaf loads and seasonal dust are heaviest on the glass and in the gutters.
No, we clean gutters first and glass last. When the gutters are cleared first, the grit and runoff drain away before anyone touches the windows, so the glass stays clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks and frames are cleaned on the same visit, and none of it is billed as an extra.
On this visit we clean the exterior of the windows only. We remove dirt from the outside glass, but we do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing as part of this job.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn your sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
