Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing dirty washes back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across California, most of the homes we clean get the bundle in spring and fall.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our window cleaners give the number on the phone, and it is the number we charge. Professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning are quoted together, after we know your stories and window count, not before.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof that cannot be walked changes how we set up. Window count matters most when the house has many small panes or large picture windows, since those take longer to set up. Heavily clogged gutters take more time than a run that was cleaned last season, and a gutter that overflows in every rain is how water damage starts at the fascia, so we clear it before the glass. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is the one thing cleaning will not remove, so we tell you about it on the phone instead of after the job. A condo is quoted the same way, from its stories and window count, and the same logic applies to multi-story buildings: the more stories and entrances, the longer the setup.
Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We flush every downspout until the water runs clear, rinse the screens we take down, and wipe the sills under each window we clean. Window washing covers the outside glass only. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs for us, so our quote does not cover windows inside the house. Clean gutters and clean glass also do more for curb appeal than most owners expect.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the number of stories. That is enough to give you an exact number, and it is the number on the invoice. Our crew does not guess at size and does not add a surprise line at the end.

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 customers who book regular cleanings in this area do both gutters and windows twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across California, spring and fall are the two busy seasons for cleaning services on residential homes, and the timing moves with the storm and wind seasons.
Across California, the spring visit falls in mid to late June and the fall visit in late November to December. On our Santa Ana jobs, the spring visit is when a residential window shows pollen film, especially south-facing glass, and when pollen paste packs the gutters. The fall visit is when we find the leaf load, and it is also the visit that clears the gutters before the wet season. Storm and wind seasons can move both dates, so we call before we come. Our crew uses purified water, so no cleaning solutions are left on the glass.
Some residential properties need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof sends needles and grit into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them. A house close to a busy road or a construction site picks up more dust than a quiet street does. If one of those describes your house, schedule service and we will tell you after the first visit.
Two signs tell you when the windows need a cleaning: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and streaks that show up after a rain. Clean windows should look clear at any hour, and a haze usually sits on every window on the same side of the house, not just one. Two signs tell you the gutters need a cleaning: water sheeting over the edge in a rain, and a dark line of wet debris along the back of the gutter. Either one is a good reason to book a visit.
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 Santa Ana, cleaning residential and commercial properties, and our window cleaning services run on the same visit as the gutter work. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text. Give us the number of stories and send a photo of the front of the house, and we come back with a price and a date. Call (866) 435-6328 to start. We call before we come, so there is no guessing about arrival.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season. Pollen and leaf grime build up on the glass and in the gutters and downspouts, and in a rain the runoff from a clogged run is what carries that dirt down the wall. Our crew is there to remove dirt from the glass and the gutters, not to move it around. During those weeks our calendar fills faster, so booking early is the simplest way to get the date you want. Lead time depends on the season and is confirmed when you call.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our washing services are exterior only, and our crew does not come inside, so you can keep your regular routine. We work around the sprinklers and cars if you move them, and we ask you to keep pets inside while the ladders are up. The same order of work applies to condos and houses: gutters first, glass last.
Yes. The two-person crew that cleans your windows also does your gutters, in the same visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last. Our crew uses purified water, so the glass dries without cleaning solutions.
The number comes from the number of stories and the size of the house. We give it by phone or text after you send those details and a photo of the front of the house. Commercial buildings are quoted from their own stories and entrances, so the number here is for a house.
Often, yes. The outside of a window here collects pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs for us, and this visit covers the exterior only.
Across California, the spring visit falls in mid to late June and the fall visit in late November to December. Most customers who book regular cleanings pick those two visits, and we tell you on the phone which one fits your house.
No, because the gutters are cleared first and the glass is washed last. If the glass were done first, someone would have to wash it again before we left.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the window job. We rinse the screens, wipe the sills and clean the tracks as we go. Picture windows get the same treatment from the pole, with the screens and frames included.
On this visit we clean the exterior of the windows only. We do not clean interior glass and we do not do pressure washing here.
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, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
