Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs down onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across California, most of the houses we clean are booked in spring and fall, and we keep that rhythm here too.
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 the two jobs separately. Our window washing and our gutter cleaning go on one ticket, so the washing services and the cleaning services on it come to one number. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328, or text a photo of the front of the house and we will work the number from there.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes how many setups we need. A large window count, or oversized panes that take more time to rinse and dry, does too. Gutters packed with needles, leaves and grime take longer than a run kept up with regular cleanings. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Clogged gutters and downspouts send runoff down the wall and onto the glass below, so that run is cleared first. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line hitting the glass is a separate problem that cleaning alone will not remove, so we note it and quote it on the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Your own number comes from your own house. The fastest way to get it is to send a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, and tell us roughly how many windows face the street and the back. If the house is a condo or part of a multi-unit building, say so when you send the photo. Clean glass and clear gutters are most of the curb appeal a residential property shows from the street, and that is what the visit is for. We will call back with the figure and what it covers. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts, and you will have it in hand.
| 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.
Two cleanings a year is the usual rhythm for both jobs, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across California the spring visit falls in mid to late June, after the spring growth has dropped its load. The fall visit here lands in December to early January, once the leaves have come down. Pollen and leaf months are what set our dates, and the cleaning solutions we use stay the same from one visit to the next, purified water on the pole.
In spring the glass carries a pollen film, most visible on south-facing panes, and the gutters hold pollen paste that turns to a crust by the time it dries. In fall the leaf load is the main problem: wet leaves pack the elbows of the downspouts and the runs over the back of the house. Storm and wind seasons move these dates in some years, and a heavy storm can bring a visit forward. Picture windows and large panes show the buildup first, and the haze shows on the interior and exterior glass when the sun is low.
A house under heavy tree cover, with a sprinkler line on the west wall, tends to need three or four visits a year, because the spots return a day after cleaning and the downspouts clog between visits. A house with little tree cover and a clean roof usually needs only the spring and fall visits. Either way the crew checks every window and every run, and sends photos of each before it leaves. Wiping the sills is how we remove dirt that has settled there over the season.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain. Either sign is reason enough to book a window and gutter visit: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house, and we will book a date with you.
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.
We have cleaned gutters and windows across Sanger, from houses on the older blocks with deep eaves to newer homes with two-story walls and large glass. Booking is simple. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front, give us the number of stories, and we will confirm an estimate and a date. Our crew takes on residential and commercial jobs, and our window cleaning services and professional window cleaning run on the same days, so a job that needs both fits one visit. Lead time depends on the calendar, and we will tell you the first open slot when you call.
The two busy windows are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season. In those weeks our calendar fills, so if you want the spring or fall visit, book early and avoid the last minute. Outside those windows there is usually more room. Condos can book the same regular cleanings as a house, and we call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, so the windows inside stay as they are, and it works from the ground and from ladders or a boom or scissor lift on the taller walls. For multi-story buildings and tall houses, the lift is set up in the same visit, so the job is done in one trip. For residential properties, clean glass and clear gutters are most of the curb appeal a house shows from the street. If something cannot be reached safely, the crew photographs it and tells you. That is the honest way to handle clogged gutters and water damage that has already started, and we report it rather than guess.
Yes. The same window cleaners on our crew clear the gutters first and wash the glass last, so the job is one visit with one set of people.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. For a residential window job it covers every window on the house plus the gutter run, and we give it by phone or text before any work starts.
On our jobs the outside carries the pollen film, the rain dust, the grime and the sprinkler spotting, so the glass looks hazy from outside even when the windows inside are clean.
Across California the spring visit falls in mid to late June, and the fall visit here lands in December to early January. We set the exact dates from the pollen and leaf seasons.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the runoff and leaves come down the wall, so the clean windows wait until the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and the sill is wiped as part of the exterior job, and tracks are included when they can be reached. Wiping the sill is also how we remove dirt that would otherwise run back onto the glass.
No. On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, so the windows inside stay as they are. We do not do pressure washing, and interior and exterior glass are not on this booking.
You do not need to be home. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328, then turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
