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 booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Our Gardena customers mostly book it in the spring and fall, when the leaves are heaviest on the house.
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, the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and steep roofs take longer to reach safely, so they move the quote most. The same count sets the price for our window cleaning services on every house. Window count matters too, and window washing on oversized panes takes more care on the outside. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles, leaves and grime, take extra time to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are priced separately, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something a cleaning removes, so we flag it on the visit rather than promise it away. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of our washing services and are not billed as extras, and the gutters and downspouts are done on the same visit. If the home is one of the condos in a complex, say so when you call, because the stories and window count still set the quote. Our Gardena jobs show how the number comes together. One customer had gutters and windows done on a two-story house with a large run of picture windows across the front and a few runs of gutter under a tree line. What moved their quote was the window count and the debris we cleared from the downspouts, which we described in the walkthrough on the day. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and tell us how many stories it has and roughly how many windows face the street. The crew sees the rest on the first visit. Expect runoff from the roof to show where the downspouts are clogged, and we will remove dirt from the gutters before we touch the glass.
| 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 Gardena customers book gutter and window cleaning twice a year, in late spring and again in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. On our Gardena jobs, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the spring buildup packs into the gutters, so that visit is about getting the window and gutter back to where the house looks right. That film on the glass needs more than a rinse, so we bring the cleaning solutions for it. The fall visit clears the leaf load before the rain starts. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we book them against the calendar and not a fixed date. Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof is the most common reason, because needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass is the other one, and those spots come back a day after cleaning. Houses near a busy road or a construction site also tend to need the glass cleaned sooner. Households in those spots usually book three or four visits a year, and picture windows on the street side tend to show the dust first. One customer with no trees on the lot books twice a year, and it is enough. Another under a tree line with sprinkler spotting books three visits a year, and we work out the schedule after the first cleaning. The sign that windows need cleaning again is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain. Our regular cleanings for residential and commercial properties are scheduled around those two signs, not a calendar date. Interior and exterior glass are two separate jobs for us, and this visit covers the exterior.
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 has cleaned houses in several Gardena neighborhoods, and we book them by the street rather than the district. Booking starts with an estimate for our cleaning services by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will give you the number. We confirm a slot after that, and our window cleaning services follow the calendar rather than a promise of same-day service. The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf season, when our calendar fills. Book early in those months and you will get the date you want. Most window cleaners climb a ladder for the upper glass, but our crew works with professional window cleaning tools and does the outside from the ground or a pole wherever possible. Clean glass on the street side does most of the work for curb appeal. Upper floors on multi-story buildings are reached by boom or scissor lift when needed. We keep the job to the exterior and do not clean windows inside. Clogged gutters and water damage are the two things we look for on every visit, and we photograph both before the crew leaves. Nobody needs to be home for the outside work. We call before we come, and we will tell you what we find before we start, so you are not surprised by the bill or the ladder.
Yes, on our jobs the same two-person crew does both in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto the windows we just finished.
We do not quote a figure on the web because the number depends on the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number on the phone.
On a Gardena house, a residential window carries most of the problem: pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up there first. Cleaning the outside alone still leaves clean windows that show the view, and keeps the frames from staining.
Most of our Gardena customers book in late spring and late fall, when the leaves are at their peak. Those are the months our calendar fills, so booking early lets us schedule service for the date you want.
It can, which is the reason we do the gutters first and the glass last. When the glass is washed first, the leaves and grit that come down the wall end up on it, and someone has to wash it again.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the outside job, so they are not billed as extras, and every window on the outside gets the same treatment. Tracks are included in the outside clean where they can be reached from the ground.
No. This visit covers the exterior glass only on residential properties, and we do not clean windows inside or do pressure washing on the same job.
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 unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
