Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across California, most of our customers book it in the spring and fall, and we have found that timing keeps the glass and the gutters both clear without a second trip.

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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Many window cleaners price by the pane alone, and we price the whole house, gutters included. The starting price for each house size is set by stories and window count, so the rest of this section covers what changes the number on the day.
On our jobs the things that move a quote are a third story or a roof steep enough that we have to work it from a boom or scissor lift, a high number of window panes, or picture windows and other oversized panes that take more time, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning will take off. Multi-story buildings add the same kind of time, since every story above the second means more ladder or lift work. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras, and the crew flushes each downspout until the water runs clear. The quote covers the exterior glass only, so interior and exterior cleaning are priced as separate jobs.
Clogged gutters on a back run can take more than one pass before the water runs clear, and that is the kind of detail we check on the first call. Send a photo of the front of the house by text, and tell us how many stories it has and roughly how many windows; the crew will give you a number that holds on the day. Professional window cleaning takes the same care on every pane, and a clean house front does a lot for curb appeal. Most of the work on a home with a lot of glass is in the window washing itself, and on a house with heavy tree cover the gutters take the longer share of the time. The sill, the frame and the screen all come with the window, so the quote covers the whole pane and not just the glass.

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, our spring visit lands in mid to late June and our fall visit in late November to December, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the same house. The same timing suits residential properties of most sizes. Here we see the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters by late spring, and the leaf load in the fall. Storm season across California delivers most of the year's rain in a handful of days, so we book by the state of the glass and the gutters rather than the calendar.
At each visit we find something specific. In the spring we see the cleaning services of the house at their heaviest: a pollen film on the glass, seeds packed into the elbows of the downspouts and a paste that sits in the gutters until it is flushed. In the fall it is the wet leaf mat that matters, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we have seen runs sag under the weight of it by winter. Those are the jobs where a clean window and a clear gutter are worth booking in the same visit, rather than as two separate calls.
Some homes need more cleanings than the standard visit. A house with heavy tree cover over the roof is on every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a residential window on a house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime than the same window a few blocks away. A house with few or no trees and no sprinkler spotting is usually fine with one visit a year in late fall.
You will know the window needs attention when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during a rain. Regular cleanings keep the haze from building up, and clean windows hold up longer when the visit lands before it sets in. If either happens between visits, call us and we will look at it. We schedule service around your calendar and the weather, and we confirm each date the day before the crew arrives.
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 has worked across Marysville, and we can tell you which neighborhoods we have done when you call. The booking process is simple. Call (866) 435-6328, or text the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we come back with a quote and an open date. Lead time depends on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year, when the spring pollen and the fall leaves arrive, our calendar fills faster. If you are booking in one of those windows, call early.
We call before we come, and we call again when the crew is on the way. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew does not come inside and works from the outside of the house only. If a gutter run or a window cannot be reached safely, we photograph it and tell you why before we leave, rather than guessing. Our window cleaning services cover the gutters and downspouts, the washing services for the glass, and the runoff from the roof. We pay attention to the condos and multi-unit buildings that have shared gutters, because a single run can carry water from several units. Runoff that backs up at a downspout can end up as water damage at the foundation, so we check the outlet on every run.
Our crews remove dirt and grime from every window and its frame with the same care on every house, using cleaning solutions picked for the frame material, and we take the debris from the gutters away with us rather than leaving it at the foot of the wall. We work on residential and commercial buildings across Marysville, and commercial jobs get their own quote. If you have a question about a particular house, text it to us with a photo and we will reply with what we see.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, starting with the gutters and finishing with the glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we quote it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and tell us the window count, and we will give you the number we will charge.
On our jobs, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the glass looks cloudy from the inside even when the inside is clean. Large panes, such as picture windows, show this most, because one big pane shows every streak. Cleaning the outside is what brings the clarity back.
Across California, our spring visit falls in mid to late June and our fall visit in late November to December. Most of our customers book two visits a year, and a house that needs regular cleanings goes on a shorter cycle.
No, that is why we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, the grit and the black water come down the wall and across any window below it, so the glass has to be cleaned after the gutters are done.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the window work, and the sill is wiped on every window. Screens are hand-rinsed and put back in the same window they came out of. We choose cleaning solutions to suit the frame material, and the glass is rinsed with purified water.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the inside of the glass or do pressure washing, and a job that covers both interior and exterior glass is quoted separately. Quotes for residential and commercial work are separate, and the price on this page is for homes.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the 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.
