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 booked together cost less than two separate trips. Most of our customers book in the spring and fall, and we see why every time we are on a roof.
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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give 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 work it out from there.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means a boom or scissor lift and more time on the ladder. A high residential window count, or oversized panes like picture windows that need a pole, adds time on the glass. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not removed by cleaning, so we flag it on the visit rather than promise it away. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Here is how we came to one Indio quote. A two-story house with a full roof run of clogged gutters and a mid-sized window count was booked with the bundle, and the crew cleared the runs first, then did the glass from the same ladder setup on each side. The clogged gutters were the main reason the time ran long, and we priced it from the stories and window count the customer gave us. Water damage risk from blocked runs is the reason we treat the gutter clearing as the first step on every house.
Before we quote, we need the exact number. Send us the stories, the window count, and a photo of the front of the house by text. For a house with multi-story buildings, a photo of each side helps. Window washing on a building this size is priced the same way: by what is actually on the house, not a guess. Professional window cleaning means the same sequence every time, so the quote you get is the one you pay.
| 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 Indio customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Cleaning services on a twice-a-year calendar keep the gutters running and the glass clear without a second setup.
What we find at each visit depends on the season. In spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters and elbows, so the spring visit is mostly about the seed and bloom load. In fall, the leaf load arrives in a wet mat that sits in the runs until it is cleared. Wind and storm seasons move the dates a little, and we would rather book a slightly later visit than clean into a storm.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters filling between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets a film of grit on the windows that a single visit does not fully clear. On those houses we book three visits a year, and we say so after the first look.
A customer with no trees over the roof is on twice a year and is done in a morning. Regular cleanings at that pace keep the runs clear without a rush. A customer with trees over the roof and sprinkler spotting is on three or four visits and gets the same clean windows on every one. Schedule service with us by phone or text, and we will tell you which pattern your house matches.
You will know windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only see when the sun is low, and gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain. Every window on the house gets the same attention, including the sill and the frame, so the clean windows you get at the end of the visit match on every floor.
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 Indio, and we book the washing services and window cleaning services as one job per house. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text: give us the stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a slot. Lead time depends on how full the calendar is that week, and we tell you the first open date when you call.
The busy windows are the spring bloom season and the fall leaf season. In both, the calendar fills, and the gutters and downspouts take the longest because the runoff is heavier. Grime builds on glass faster in those months, so we book the spring and fall slots early and keep a few open for storm follow-ups. If you are booking outside those months, you will usually get in sooner.
We cover residential properties and the condos and multi-unit buildings around Indio, and the crew works residential and commercial jobs the same way. On a condo complex we book every window and gutter run on the building in one visit, so the runoff from one run does not land on the next. The goal on every job is to remove dirt from the glass and the gutters in the same pass.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we tell you the arrival window the day before. If you have a question about the job while we are there, text it and we will answer from the ladder.
Yes, it is the same two people. We clean the gutters first and the outside of the windows second, so nothing dirty lands on clean glass. One crew, one visit, one invoice.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we quote it from those.
Yes, because the outside carries the spring dust film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spotting that the inside never sees. Clean inside glass does not cut the outside grime, and the outside sets the curb appeal you see from the street.
Most of our Indio customers book in the spring and fall, which lines up with the bloom season and the leaf drop. Text us your address and we will tell you the first open date in those windows.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters, flush the downspouts and give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before we touch the glass, so the runoff has nowhere to go but down and away.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frames are done as part of the job. We clean the outside glass with water and no cleaning solutions, so there is no residue to streak. None of it is billed as an extra on top of the window count.
This visit is exterior only. We do not clean windows inside or do pressure washing on this visit, so the interior and exterior work is a separate job we can quote on request.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
