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 jobs together in spring and fall costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Lindsay jobs, most customers book this combined visit in spring and fall, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge.
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.
Professional window cleaning and gutter clearing are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice, and we do not change it once the crew is on site.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds when it gets there. The setup changes for multi-story buildings and for any roof steep enough that the crew has to work from a boom or scissor lift. Window washing takes longer on a house with more glass, and so do oversized panes, which take more time and more care per square foot. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years are the usual reason, because clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves down to the elbow take longer to clear, and water damage at the fascia is more likely when they overflow for a long stretch. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned, and that is priced in. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is the one thing no cleaning removes, so we tell you about 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. Every downspout gets flushed until the water runs clear, and every reachable window sill gets wiped down before we leave. Windows inside are a separate job and are not part of this price.
The fastest way to get an exact number is to text a photo of the front of the house, along with the stories and an approximate window count, or call (866) 435-6328 and we will walk through it with you. We will tell you what we see from that photo and whether the lift is needed. Bring that same information to a phone call and we can usually give you the figure while you are on the line.
On our Lindsay jobs, the things that most often add time are tree cover over the roof, sprinkler lines that hit the glass, and gutters that have been left a long time between visits. Each one shows up in the photos we send back, which is how you can see what we charged for and why.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |

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 most of our Lindsay jobs, customers book our cleaning services twice a year, and they set up regular cleanings for both gutters and exterior windows, once in the spring and once in the fall. One crew doing both in one visit makes sense on that schedule. The spring visit clears the seed drop, and the fall visit clears the leaves before they freeze into the gutters. Across California the calendar works the same way, but the dates shift with the local weather.
What we find at each visit depends on the season. In the spring, a residential window facing south picks up a pollen film, and the gutters fill with seed paste. In the fall we see the leaf load, which can turn into a wet mat that holds water against the fascia if it sits through winter. Storm and wind seasons move the dates in both directions, and we would rather book a slot a little early than let the gutters sit through a storm.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, so the gutters fill faster than on an open lot. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves round spots that come back a day after cleaning, so we check every window on that side and clean it again on the third visit. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the glass and on every sill, which also calls for an extra pass.
You will know windows need cleaning again when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspouts. To schedule service ahead of those signs, call in early in spring or fall, when the calendar fills fastest.
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 Lindsay, offering window cleaning services and gutter work, and we book a slot by phone or text once we have the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time varies with the season, and in the busy windows of spring and fall our calendar fills faster, so an early call makes a difference.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew stays outside, and we call before we come so you know the arrival window. Gutters and downspouts get cleared first, then the glass, so runoff from the roof does not carry grime back onto a window we have already cleaned. The crew works to remove dirt from the glass in the same pass. Where a window or a run cannot be reached safely, we photograph it and tell you rather than guessing.
Our washing services cover residential properties in Lindsay, and the gutters and downspouts get handled on the same visit, so the job stays a single appointment. Condos and other buildings with a lot of glass or several stories get the setup planned before the crew arrives, so the visit moves in one pass.
Clean windows and clear gutters both affect curb appeal, which is part of why our crew does them together. Ask us about the schedule for your property when you call.
Yes, it is the same two-person crew, and they do both in one visit. Gutters are cleared first and the glass is done last, so the dirty water from the roof does not run back across a window we have already washed.
We do not quote a figure here because the number depends on the size of the house and the window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the exact number from those details.
On our jobs, when you compare interior and exterior glass, the outside carries most of what dulls a window: pollen in the spring, dust, and sprinkler spotting. Those things sit on the exterior glass, so cleaning the inside alone does not clear them.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, and the calendar fills in those windows. Residential and commercial buildings both collect seed and leaves in those seasons, so the timing suits either. An early call gives you a better chance of the slot you want.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. Blowing the roof clear and flushing the downspouts before the windows keeps the grime from washing down across the panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Any cleaning solutions used on the frames are included, and picture windows are cleaned from the outside on the same visit. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
No, this visit covers the exterior glass only. We do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash on this visit, and we say so on the estimate call.
No, you do not need to be home because our crew works outside and does not come inside. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
