Gutter and window cleaning in Coalinga is one visit with one crew: we clean the gutters and the outside of the windows, gutters first and glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean glass. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Coalinga jobs, most customers book it in the spring and fall, which is when the pollen and the leaves do the most damage to both the gutters and the glass.
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 give the price by phone or text from the number of stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and the number we give is the number on the invoice. Doing the window and gutter cleaning in one visit is cheaper than booking the two jobs separately, because the crew sets up once for each side of the house. Professional window cleaning booked with the gutters also means one crew, one trip and one invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that is slow to work, oversized or picture windows that take more handling, clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line that no cleaning removes. Hard-water stains on a residential window are quoted after the crew sees them. Clearing gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The crew brings its own cleaning solutions and purified water.
On a Coalinga house with a lot of tree grit in the gutters and film on the south-facing glass, the crew usually spends more time on the first visit than the second, because the first visit clears what built up over the year. Repeat cleanings on the same house usually go faster, since the crew already knows the layout. The quote covers the exterior only, so interior and exterior glass are always quoted as two separate jobs. If you send a photo of the front of the house by text, along with the number of stories and a rough count of windows, we can tell you what the job will take before anyone climbs a ladder. That is how we get to an exact number, and it is why we rarely have to revise a quote at the curb. Both residential and commercial customers get the same straight answer: the number we give is the number we charge. Ask for a written estimate and we will send it before the crew is booked.

|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |

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 cleaning services here are booked twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew doing both jobs in one visit makes sense for this city. The spring visit clears the pollen film from the glass and the paste from the gutters, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before it packs the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons can shift those dates, so we confirm the month when you call.
What we find at each visit is consistent. In the spring, a film sits on south-facing glass and paste builds in the elbows of the downspouts, and that paste is what backs water up onto the fascia. In the fall, the leaf mat is wet and thick in the gutter bottoms, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs that sagged under the weight of it. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof need a third visit, because needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between regular cleanings. Houses with a sprinkler line hitting the glass need the same, because the mineral spots come back a day after each cleaning and only a separate treatment removes them. Multi-story buildings take longer than a two-story house because the ladder work goes higher, and a house on a busy road or near construction also tends to need a third visit, since dust settles on the glass faster.
You can usually tell when windows need it by the haze that only shows up when the sun is low, and you can tell when gutters need it by water sheeting over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. Window cleaners who skip the gutters leave that grime and runoff to wash onto the glass in the next rain. Either sign means it is time to book, and curb appeal drops fast once the glass goes hazy, so we would rather hear from you early than after the water damage starts.
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 books window and gutter cleaning across Coalinga, and we schedule service by the order we receive the estimate requests. To start, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories and a rough window count, and we will reply with a quote and the first date we can hold. Lead time is listed in the booking confirmation, and we will tell you on the phone if the calendar is full.
Two windows of the year fill the calendar faster than the rest: the spring season and the fall leaf drop. If you want a slot in either window, book early, because our crew holds a limited number of days for each. Outside those windows, we can usually fit in a visit within a week or two of the call.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and the crew works from the outside of the house, so you only need to make sure the side gate is unlocked and the pets are inside. Condos and townhomes get the same exterior work, and the crew confirms gate and building access on the call. Every window and gutter run we clean gets a photo, and the photos go to you before the truck leaves. For residential properties or commercial buildings the approach is the same: we clean the gutters first, then the clean windows, and we check the sill on each one before we finish.
Yes, our crew does both, and it is the same two people in one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the grime from the gutters does not run back onto the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without knowing those two things.
Yes, because the outside carries most of what dirties the glass here: the spring film, the dust that settles after rain, and the mineral spots from sprinklers. Cleaning the inside will not remove dirt from the outside, so the outside is where the grime builds up.
Most of our Coalinga customers book in the spring and in the fall, after the spring season and after the leaves drop. We confirm the month when you call.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. Once the roof is clear, the gutters are cleared, and every downspout is flushed, the runoff from the roof gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and tracks are cleaned as part of the window job. We do not bill them as extras.
Interior windows are not part of this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, and the washing services for siding or decks are quoted as separate jobs.
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 brings its own water.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
