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 both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across California, most homeowners who book this pair choose spring and fall, and we work the same way on our own calendar. Tell us your stories and a rough window count, and you will have a number before anyone climbs a ladder.
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 stories and approximate window count. Booking gutter cleaning and window cleaning together in one visit comes out cheaper than two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. For residential and commercial buildings the first step is the same: stories and window count. What moves it on our jobs is the story count and the roof pitch, the number and size of the windows including oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and not billed as extras. The quote covers exterior glass only, so interior and exterior work is never folded into one number.
On a recent job, the quote moved because the front of the house had a bay of picture windows that needed a boom or scissor lift and the back run had a sprinkler line hitting the glass. The crew flagged both on a photo before the visit, so the number held. The purified water and the cleaning solutions are part of the price, not a line item. Across California, the easiest way to get the exact figure is to send a photo of the front of the house by text along with your story count. A dust film on the south-facing glass and packed debris in the gutters are the usual pair we see, and both are priced into the visit.
| 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 book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across California, the spring visit lands in mid to late June and the fall visit in late November to December. On our jobs the spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed into the gutters, and the fall visit catches the leaf load. Atmospheric rivers across California deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, so we book around storm weather rather than on a fixed day. Regular cleanings on that rhythm keep the glass and the gutters ahead of the next wet stretch.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the downspouts between visits, and clogged gutters can hold water against the fascia long enough to cause water damage. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and that is a mineral problem, not dirt. A house close to a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than the rest, and multi-story buildings with a lot of glass usually land in that group. We see those houses on a three- or four-visit schedule, and we tell you which group your house is in after the first visit.
You will notice the glass needs cleaning when you see haze only when the sun is low. You will see the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the rain. Clean glass does more for curb appeal than most owners expect. Until then, two cleanings a year hold for most homes on our routes.
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 provides window cleaning services and residential window and gutter cleaning jobs across Fontana, and the residential properties we see most are single-family homes with clean windows to protect. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with your story count, and we send a written estimate you can compare. For professional window cleaning at a house this size, that photo is the fastest route to a firm number. Lead time depends on the season, and we will tell you the first open date when we call back. Most homeowners want to schedule service before the busy windows, when our calendar fills.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come and again when the truck is on the way. The crew cleans every window on the outside, works the sill and the frame, and rinses the gutters and downspouts before the glass so nothing runs back down onto clean panes.
Yes. The same two people do both on one visit, and our cleaning services start with the gutters and finish with the glass. That order keeps the runoff from spotting windows we have already cleaned.
The number comes from your stories and the approximate window count, and condos are quoted the same way as a house. Send both by text or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the figure on the phone.
On our jobs the outside carries most of the grime here: dust film, rain residue and sprinkler spots. Rain alone will not remove dirt that has dried on the glass, so the outside needs a wash. The outside is what the sun shows you, so it is the part most owners notice first.
Across California most of our customers book in spring and in fall. We will tell you the open dates when you call, and we work around the storm months.
Not if the order is right. Gutters first, glass last, so the leaves, grit and black water come down before any window is washed.
Our washing services cover screens, sills and tracks on the exterior visit. Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned, and none of it is billed as an extra.
Exterior glass only on this visit. The windows inside stay as they are, and we do not do pressure washing here.
No, 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, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
