Yes, our window cleaning services and the gutter work happen in one visit from the same two people, gutters first and glass last. We price the job by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Chowchilla jobs, most customers book this in the spring and fall, when the dust and leaf loads build up. Text us a photo of the front of the house or call (866) 435-6328 for an estimate.
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. Residential and commercial buildings are not priced on the same sheet, so the figures on this page are for homes only. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge on the invoice. Ask for a written estimate before we book a date if you want the figure in writing first.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings and steep roofs mean more time on the boom or scissor lift. A large count of windows, or oversized picture windows, adds glass to wash. A heavy pollen film on the glass adds time to the wash. Gutters that have not had cleanings in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is something no cleaning removes, so we note it on the estimate. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing, sill wiping and cleaning solutions are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Chowchilla jobs the quote usually comes down to the same handful of details: how many stories, roughly how many windows, and whether the gutters have been done recently. If you text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, we can give you a starting number before we come. Reaching the full picture takes one look at the roofline, which is why we confirm the final price on site before the crew starts. Our window and gutter cleaning work is priced the same way in every neighborhood, and the number we quote is the one you pay.
| 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.
Most of our Chowchilla customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. In spring the pollen film builds on the south-facing glass and sticky residue packs the gutters. In fall the leaf load arrives and the wet leaves mat in the downspouts. Storms and wind move these dates a little each year, so we set the visit when the gutters and glass are ready to be cleaned, which keeps curb appeal up through the season.
Some houses need a third visit between regular cleanings. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and we flag those on the first visit. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass and more runoff in the gutters, so those customers are often on a shorter schedule. Our window cleaners are on the same route, so a third visit is usually set for the same week as the other two.
You can see when the windows need it: a haze that shows only when the sun is low is the glass telling you it is time. Rain alone does not remove dirt from the glass, so the haze stays until someone washes it. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspouts. Professional window cleaning on a regular cycle keeps that haze from building up, and clogged gutters are the first sign of water damage at the fascia and wall below. Our crew finds these on the regular visit before they turn into repair work.
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 cleaning services reach residential properties across Chowchilla, and we do window and gutter cleaning on the same visit for most homes. Booking works in three steps: you call or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, we give you the estimate, and we set a date. The usual lead time is shown on our booking page, and we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
The busy windows are the spring season and the fall leaf season, when our calendar fills. If you want a slot in those weeks, book early. Outside those windows there is usually room to schedule service on a weekday morning. Whatever the season, we want every window on the house to come out clean, so the crew checks each pane and frame before it moves on. Our crew works carefully around the sill and the frame so nothing is left behind, and a residential window gets the same attention whether it is on the first floor or the third.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two people in one visit, and our washing services for the glass and gutters are booked as one job. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the water and grime from the gutters do not land on clean windows. One crew and one visit is why the bundle costs less than two trips.
We do not give a figure here, because the number comes from the stories, the window count and what the gutters are like. Text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you the number before we book. If the house is one of the condos in a complex, say so on the call so the estimate matches the building.
On our Chowchilla jobs the outside carries most of the grime: dirt and dust that washes down in rain, and sprinkler spots. Cleaning the outside still makes a difference to the look of the house. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, which is when the dust and leaves build up. If you are unsure, the call to (866) 435-6328 will tell you which month fits your house.
No, we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last for that reason. When the glass is washed first, the water and grit from the gutters run down onto it, and someone has to wash it again.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and tracks are cleaned as part of the job. They are not billed as extras, so the number we quote covers them.
No. We do not clean windows inside the house on this visit, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
