The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters first, glass last, so the dirty runoff never reaches the clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew books this bundle most in spring and fall, and the number we quote 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count. The bundle, both jobs in one visit, costs less than booking the gutters and the windows separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Starting prices for our window washing and washing services are set from the stories and window count of your house, so you know the figure before the crew arrives.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes more time on the ladder. A high window count, or oversized panes, adds glass to wash. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue, and no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a Los Banos job, the first thing we do is see how much grime has built up on the glass and in the gutters. Runoff from the roof carries dirt down the wall, and on a two-story house that means a full run of windows to rinse. We ask for a photo of the front of the house by text, along with the number of stories. That lets us tell you the price before anyone climbs. Once we are on the roof, we remove dirt from the gutters and downspouts, then wash the glass. Condos with several stories and shared gutters take the same method, with the crew working each section in turn. We use the same cleaning solutions on every residential window, whether it sits in a condo or a single-family house. Our window cleaning services follow the same count, so a condo with the same stories and glass quotes like a house.
| 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 Los Banos customers book both jobs twice a year, one visit in the spring and one in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across California, spring means mid to late June, after the pollen season. Here in Los Banos, fall means December to early January, after the leaves drop.
In the spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutters. In the fall we find the leaf load on the roof and wet leaf mats that sag the runs. Keep in mind that interior and exterior glass need different work, and our visits cover the exterior. Storm and wind seasons move these dates, and across California most of the year's rain falls in a handful of atmospheric river events, so a December visit can shift if the storms arrive early.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof drops needles into the gutters between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up extra grime on the glass, and picture windows show that film first, since one large pane holds the haze across the whole room. Those are the houses where our crew books regular cleanings more often.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Check every window on the outside of the house, not just the front, because the haze often sits on one side first. You will know gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout.
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 cleaning services reach gutters and exterior windows on residential properties and on residential and commercial buildings across Los Banos. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Once we have the details, we give you a slot. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 and we will confirm the date. In the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, our calendar fills, so the sooner you call, the sooner we can come out.
Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, so you know when the crew is on the way. Our window cleaners use a water-fed pole and purified water, which lets us reach the upper panes of multi-story buildings without a ladder against the siding. That is part of professional window cleaning, and it keeps the job clean from start to finish.
Keeping the gutters clear matters because clogged gutters are the first sign of trouble. Water that backs up can soak the fascia and cause water damage that costs far more than a cleaning. Clean windows and clear gutters work together, since dirty runoff is what fouls the glass. Curb appeal also depends on clean glass and clear gutters, and it is the first thing a neighbor notices. Interior glass is a separate job, and we will confirm the scope when you book.
Yes, the same crew cleans both. Our crew works on the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff does not land on clean windows.
We give the number by phone or text, based on the number of stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the figure before we book.
Yes, it is worth it. Every window on the outside of a house collects pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and none of that is cleaned by washing the inside alone.
On our Los Banos jobs, most customers book in spring or fall, when the pollen and leaf loads peak. That timing lines up with how fast the gutters and glass fill up. A residential window left through a full season shows that buildup clearly.
Gutters first, glass last. Clearing the gutters sends dirty water and grit down the wall, so the windows get cleaned after that.
Yes, screens, sills and tracks are part of the job on every residential window. They are rinsed and wiped, not billed as an extra.
No, we clean the outside of the windows on this visit and do not do interior glass or pressure washing. Text a photo of the roofline and we will confirm the scope.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Then book a date and our crew will call before arriving.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
