Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back down onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips.
Across California, most of the homes we clean are booked in spring and fall, when the pollen and leaf loads are heaviest. The crew that quotes you is the crew that works on your 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 residential window count, and the bundle costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and the saving for doing both in one visit is shown on your estimate.
What moves a quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: multi-story buildings with a steep roof that need a boom or scissor lift, a high count of window washing targets with oversized picture windows, gutters not cleaned in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our window cleaning services follow the same order every time, so the price reflects the work and not a surprise. Where grime has baked onto the glass, the crew may need extra time to remove dirt, and that time is shown on the estimate before the visit. Interior and exterior glass is priced separately if you ask for it, but on this visit we clean the exterior only. Cleanings of the outside glass are scheduled around the gutter run, which is why the bundle works.
Each quote starts with a photo of the front of the house and your story count, sent by text. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 before we come and we will give you a number from your story count. Regular cleanings are easier to price once we have seen the house the first time, and our washing services are quoted as one fixed number after that.

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 both jobs twice a year, in mid to late June and again in late November to December, when the seed and leaf loads build up, and one crew in one visit makes that schedule simple.
In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky tree residue packed into the gutter elbows. In fall the leaves drop into a wet mat, and clogged gutters push runoff down the wall where it can cause water damage around the windows. Across California, atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and Laguna Beach averages about 12.7 inches a year, mostly in January, February and December. Storm and wind seasons move those dates, so we check the calendar with you on the estimate.
Houses under heavy tree cover, multi-story buildings, or houses with a sprinkler line hitting the glass often need a third visit. The spots that come back a day later are mineral deposits, not dirt. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime between visits too.
The sign windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in rain. If either shows up between visits, text us a photo and we will tell you which one it is.
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 handles residential and commercial jobs across the city. Residential properties make up most of the calendar, so we book one estimate at a time and the crew is never rushed. To schedule service, start with a phone call or text at (866) 435-6328 with your story count and a photo of the house front, and we will hold a slot for the visit.
Lead times depend on the season, and the two busy windows of the year fill the calendar first. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our professional window cleaning work is done by the same two people who clear the gutters, from a boom or scissor lift on taller houses and a pole on the rest, so every window gets reached.
The point of the visit is a clean result for the whole property, with gutters and downspouts cleared, and better curb appeal from the street. The same plan works for houses and condos. Clients who keep one schedule for the year get the same crew back, which is the part we like most about cleaning services done this way.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. That order keeps the glass from being splashed again.
The number comes from your stories and window count. We give it by phone or text at (866) 435-6328 before we book, and the number we give is the number we charge.
On our jobs the outside carries film from the air, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so the glass looks worse from the street than from inside. Cleaning the outside alone is a common choice.
Across California most of our customers book in mid to late June and again in late November to December, after the leaves fall. Text us a photo of the house front and we will confirm a slot for your visit.
Not if the gutters are done first. When the glass is washed first, the water from the gutters runs down the wall and across the panes below, so we always clear the gutters before we touch the windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and the cleaning solutions we use on the frames are included, not billed as extras.
On this visit we clean the exterior of the glass only. We do not clean windows inside as part of this job, and pressure washing is not included either.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
