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 two separate trips. Our crew does this work across California, and most of the homes we see are cleaned in the spring and fall.
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 done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and a rough window count and we will confirm it before we book.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes more time on the ladder. A large window count or oversized panes, including picture windows, adds glass to clean. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning, and we tell you that on the visit instead of guessing. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our crew on Covina jobs has seen the same pattern repeat: the quote grows with the number of stories and the window count, and the clogged gutters on a house that has gone a long time without service add the most time. Many window cleaners quote by the hour; we quote the house, so the number holds. Window washing and gutter work on the same house share one setup, which is why the bundle costs less than two trips. We do not use a fixed formula; we look at the house. A photo of the front of the house sent by text, plus the number of stories, is enough for us to give you an exact number before we come out.
Professional window cleaning on multi-story buildings or a home with curb appeal to protect is the same process: we do the roof blow-off, clear the gutters, flush the downspouts, and then clean the glass. Water damage from a gutter that overflows is far more expensive than the cleaning itself, which is why we tell you when a run is overflowing. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs for us, and this visit covers the exterior only; we do not clean windows inside.
| 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 gutters and windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and one crew in one visit is the reason that schedule works. In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall we find the leaf load that has been coming down for weeks.
Storm and wind seasons move the dates in both directions, so we look at the roof and the glass before we set a date. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or construction usually needs a third visit. The third visit is the one that keeps the gutters flowing between the main cleanings.
We do not give DIY instructions for this work. The residential window and residential properties we clean are on a schedule the crew sets with you, and every window on the house gets the same attention on the visit. Regular cleanings every spring and fall keep the sill and frame from holding a film, and purified water does the work here, so the crew skips cleaning solutions on the glass. The sill and the frame get wiped as part of the job so that clean windows stay clean between visits.
You will know the windows need service when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need service when water sheets over the edge in a hard rain instead of running down the downspout. Either sign is a reason to schedule service with us.
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 have cleaned gutters and exterior windows across Covina, and we treat the city as one service area rather than a list of neighborhoods. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: call (866) 435-6328 or send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm the quote before the crew is scheduled. Lead times depend on the calendar, and we give you the date we can actually reach.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills fastest then. Book early in those windows if you want a set day. 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.
Our crew handles washing services and window cleaning services for residential and commercial properties, and we handle the grime that builds up on the glass and the debris that collects in the gutters and downspouts. We clear runoff paths and remove dirt from the gutter trough so water exits the way it should. Condos and townhomes with shared roof lines get the same process, scheduled with the building manager.
Yes. The same two-person crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not washed twice.
We give the number from the stories and the size of the house, by phone or text, and multi-story buildings are quoted the same way. We do not quote a range without seeing the house.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Picture windows show it most, since they are the largest panes on the wall.
Our customers here book in the spring after the pollen drop and in the fall after the leaves come down. Regular cleanings in those two seasons are the pattern most of our customers keep, and across California that is the common pattern too.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the water and debris from the gutters are gone before the glass is touched. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so nothing is left on the glass to streak.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the job. They are not billed as extras.
We clean the outside of the windows only on this visit, so interior and exterior glass are never billed as one job here, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and leave the side gate unlocked. Call (866) 435-6328 if you have questions before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
