Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price both jobs by the number of stories, and doing them together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew works across California and books most often in the spring and fall, when leaves and dust build up fastest. Tell us your stories and an approximate window count and we will give you the number we will 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, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking gutter cleaning and window cleaning separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and the cleaning solutions for the glass are too, so none of it is billed as an extra.
On the day, the crew finds the things that change a quote: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a large number of oversized or picture windows, gutters that have not been opened 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 removes. Each one is photographed and talked through before we start, so you hear it before any work begins.
Companies that price by length land in a similar place per linear foot, but on our jobs the stories and the glass count drive the number more than the run length does. Regular cleanings keep the job simple: a gutter that is cleared every spring and fall is quicker and cheaper to keep clear than one left to fill. The figure on this page is for a house, and a residential and commercial building is quoted on its own inspection.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house with your stories and a rough window count, and we will tell you where the number lands. Nothing is added after the fact, and the bundle saving shows up in that first number. Quotes for the interior and exterior glass are separate, and this price covers the exterior only.
| 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 Ramona customers book both twice a year, in the late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. We also run professional window cleaning services on a schedule for owners who want the glass kept on the same calendar as the gutters.
In late spring we find pollen on south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutters. In the fall it is the leaf load, and on houses that skipped that visit we see runs that sagged under water by the next winter. Across California, atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and that is when runoff and clogged gutters show up. Those storm weeks move the dates, so we confirm the slot a week ahead.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the downspouts packing between visits, and a clogged downspout is a common route to water damage at the fascia. 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 collects grime faster than the average lot. Multi-story buildings with a steep roof are where our crews most often end up on the ladder a third time in the year.
Watch the glass for haze you only see when the sun is low, which is the sign windows need it. Watch the edge of the gutter in rain for water sheeting over the lip, which is the sign the gutters need it.
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 cleans gutters and exterior windows across the city, and we book window and gutter cleaning through a phone call or a text with your stories and a photo of the house front. To schedule service, tell us the week you want, and we will tell you the first open date when you ask. The two busy windows of the year are the late spring and the fall, when the calendar fills, so an earlier call gets you a better slot.
When we are booked out, we tell you the next open date instead of guessing. We call before we come, so there is no waiting at the curb. Owners of condos should tell us which windows and gutter runs are theirs, since a shared roof changes what we clean. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
We serve residential properties, and we also run residential window cleaning for owners who want every window on the house done in the same visit. Our window cleaning services cover the sill, the frame and the glass, so the scope is clear before the ladders go up.
Yes. Our window and gutter washing services are done by the same two people in one visit, and we clean the gutters first and the glass last so nothing washes back onto clean windows. If you only book windows, the gutter runs above them are still the first thing we clear.
There is no figure to give without the details, so we quote from the number of stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the house front and we will give you the number we will charge.
For many Ramona homes, yes. The outside carries the dust film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those sit on the glass whether or not the inside is clean. Exterior cleaning is what changes curb appeal, the view from the street.
Most of our customers here book in the late spring and again in the fall. Those visits come after the spring bloom and after the leaves fall, when the gutters hold the most material.
Not if the order is right. We clear the roof, the gutters and downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and then do the glass, so the runoff running down the wall has already drained before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and the frames get a wipe to remove dirt as part of the job, so you will not see them as an extra line on the invoice. Hard-water stains etched into the glass need a separate treatment, which we quote after the crew sees them.
Not on this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing. If you want the windows inside done, that is a separate booking and we will tell you what it needs.
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 unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
