Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters first, glass last, so the glass does not get dirty twice. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Across California, most of our customers book it in spring and fall, which is when the buildup on the roof and the glass is heaviest.
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.
Window washing is priced the way gutter cleaning is, by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Our washing services come as one bundle, so both jobs in one visit cost less than booking the two separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a written estimate.
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. Oversized picture windows and a high window count add time at the glass, and grime on a lower sash takes longer to lift than a light film. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and haul. 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, so we flag it before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and interior and exterior glass are priced separately.
On a Florence-Graham job, the quote moved with the house, not the street. One customer had a two-story house with a row of windows on the back and a gutter run that had gone several seasons without clearing; the window count and the packed runs set the time, and the price followed from those. Send us the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you what to expect before anyone is scheduled. For a house that is not on that list, the same three things set the number.
| 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 customers here book both twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Regular cleanings at those two points catch the buildup before it sets. In spring we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall the leaf load is what clogs the gutters, and the storm and wind season is what moves the dates.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters and downspouts between visits, and a clogged downspout can lead to water damage at the eave. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and mineral spotting is a separate job that a regular visit does not cover. Multi-story buildings put the upper glass out of easy reach, so the third visit goes there first. A house near a busy road or a construction site gathers dust faster than the glass can stay clean. On those houses we suggest a third visit, and we say so from the first estimate.
A residential window tells you it needs cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Gutters tell you when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, call (866) 435-6328 and we will look at it on the next scheduled visit or book a date that works for you.
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 works across Florence-Graham, and residential properties in every part of the city are booked the same way. To schedule service, call or text us with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we send a written estimate. The lead time depends on the season; in the two busy windows of the year our calendar fills, so the sooner you call, the sooner your slot comes up. We call before we come, and the crew arrives inside the window we gave you.
Our window cleaners work on the outside only and plan each visit around the weather, since wet glass dries with marks on it. Every window on the outside of the house is covered by our window cleaning services, from the sill to the frame, and the crew does the upper stories from the pole. The glass gets purified water, not cleaning solutions. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, so the day does not have to shift around the crew.
Our cleaning services bring professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning to the same house in one visit, which is what keeps the curb appeal consistent from the roof down. Questions about residential and commercial work go to the same number. If you are ready to book, call (866) 435-6328 and ask for a date, or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with a written estimate.
Yes. Our own crew does both in one visit, so you are not booking two companies. The crew clears the gutters and downspouts first and cleans the glass last, so the runoff from the roof does not dirty the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text before anyone is scheduled. The same goes for condos and multi-story buildings: send us the stories and the window count. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you the number, which is the number on the invoice.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, which the inside never sees. On Florence-Graham houses the outside glass is where most of the buildup lands, so cleaning it changes how the house looks from the street.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall. Regular cleanings at those two points catch the pollen on the glass and in the gutters, and fall catches the leaf load before it clogs the gutters. Text a photo of the roofline if you want us to look before you pick a date.
No. The crew clears the gutters first, so the runoff has stopped by the time the glass is done, and nobody has to remove dirt from the windows twice.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks and anything beyond the exterior glass are handled on a separate request, so ask when you book.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, so windows inside the house are not part of the price. We do not do pressure washing on this visit.
No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. The crew sends photos of every run before it leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
