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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. On our Lathrop jobs, most customers book this in the spring and fall, when the leaves and dirt are heaviest on the glass and in the gutters.
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 our window washing services 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.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely, and multi-story buildings need more setup again. A house with a lot of oversized panes or picture windows takes more time per pane. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years come down heavy with packed grime, needles and leaves. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers will not come off with regular cleanings, and we tell you that before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Our window cleaning services cover the exterior only, so if you want interior and exterior glass done, that is a separate quote.
On our Lathrop jobs, one customer with two stories and a fair number of windows was quoted from a phone call and a photo of the front of the house. What moved the number was the window count on the back of the house and a run of gutters that had gone several seasons without a cleaning. The quote did not change on the day. To get your exact number, tell us your stories, your approximate window count, and text us a photo of the front of the house.

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.
On our Lathrop jobs most customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them.
In the spring, pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and as a paste in the gutters. In the fall, clogged gutters fill with leaves that wet into a mat and block the downspouts, and the runoff sheets down the siding and wets the wall below. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates, so we look at the house rather than the calendar. Under heavy tree cover, the roof collects needles and grit between visits, and those customers are often on three or four visits a year. A house near a busy road or a construction site also needs more frequent attention. Sprinkler lines that hit the glass leave spots that come back a day after cleaning. Store-bought cleaning solutions will not lift that mineral film, so those spots need a third visit or a separate treatment. If runoff from a clogged gutter keeps wetting one spot, it can turn into water damage at the fascia, so do not wait for that.
Windows need it when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout. Both signs mean it is time to call, and a single call to (866) 435-6328 gets you on the schedule.
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 crews clean homes across Lathrop, and we book one visit at a time so each house gets the full order of work: gutters first, glass last. Every visit is professional window cleaning, meaning a water-fed pole, purified water and the same order of work on every house. Our window cleaners work through every window on the outside of the house, not only the ones visible from the street. To start, send an estimate request by phone or text with your stories and a photo of the house front, and we come back with a number you can rely on.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop. Our calendar fills then, so booking early helps you schedule service on the day that suits you. Outside those windows we can usually give you a date within a short lead time, which we confirm when you book. If a building is part residential and commercial, say so on the call so we can quote the access it needs. Clean glass and clear gutters also add to curb appeal, and both come from one visit. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we send photos of the finished runs and glass before the crew leaves.
Yes. On a residential window and gutter job, our own crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the dirty gutter water does not end up on clean windows. You get one schedule and one invoice.
The number comes from your stories and your approximate window count. If your home is one of the condos in a shared building, tell us whether the gutters belong to your unit or the building, since that changes the access. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the exact figure before we book.
Often yes, on most residential properties, because the outside carries most of what dulls the glass here: pollen in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. Interior glass is a separate job that we do not do on this visit.
December to early January is the usual window for this visit, and December, January and February are the wettest months here, so the gutters take the heaviest load then. Call (866) 435-6328 and we give you the next open date.
Not on our visits. Gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed first, so the runoff drains away before anyone touches the glass. The wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then does anyone clean the windows. That order is the reason we do both in one visit.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job, which helps remove dirt that would otherwise wash onto the glass. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside. We do not bill them as separate extras.
No. This visit covers exterior glass only, so we do not clean windows inside the house or pressure wash on this visit. We say so up front so you can book the right service.
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 leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
