Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your 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 separately. Across California, the calls we get most often are for spring and fall, when the pollen and leaves build up.
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 window and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking the gutters and the windows together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from those two details, so call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house for a written estimate.
On a residential window job, the things that move the quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a large number of oversized panes including picture windows at the front of the house, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles, leaves and grime, and guards that have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is also priced separately, because no cleaning removes it. Clearing the gutters and downspouts, rinsing the screens and wiping the sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Interior glass is not part of the quote, so every price we give covers the exterior only, not interior and exterior glass together.
Across California we ask the same things before we quote for any of our washing services: how many stories, roughly how many windows, and whether the gutters have had any cleanings in the last year. Regular cleanings are quoted from those same details, so a repeat visit starts from the same questions. A photo of the front of the house answers most of the rest. The exact figure depends on those details, and we will tell you what is included before anyone climbs a ladder.
| 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.
Across California, most of our customers book window and gutter work twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. The spring visit runs mid to late June across California, and the fall visit late November to December. On our jobs the spring visit is when we find the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters. The same calendar works for residential and commercial buildings, though a building with a lot of glass takes the longer visit.
By fall the leaf load is the main problem. Clogged gutters hold a wet leaf mat against the fascia through the rain, and the runoff that backs up behind it is how water damage starts on the trim and the wall below. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a lot near a busy road or construction tend to need a third visit, because the spots that come back a day later and the grit in the gutters build up faster than twice a year can handle.
The sign windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice from the windows inside the house when the sun is low in the afternoon. The sign gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. Multi-story buildings and houses with several stories and steep roofs are easier to plan around when we know their history, so tell us what you have seen on the glass and the gutters before you book. We do not use cleaning solutions on the glass; purified water does the work.
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 window cleaning services cover the outside of the glass and the gutters across South San Jose Hills, and we are one of the window cleaners that will come out for a residential property, from a single house to a full row of condos. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, give us the number of stories, and we send a written estimate. To schedule service, call early, because in the busy weeks in spring and fall our calendar fills, so the sooner you call the better the slot.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, so the only thing to do is move the car off the driveway if it faces the glass and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Every window gets the same attention, and the crew uses purified water to remove dirt and grime without leaving streaks. Whether it is a small bathroom pane or a large picture window at the front of the house, clean glass is a big part of the curb appeal.
Our crews run professional window cleaning on a regular schedule, and we keep the sill clean and the frames wiped as part of the same visit. If you want the service kept up year after year, we can set the next date before we leave, so the calendar does the work for you.
Yes. Our crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the dirty water from the roof never lands on clean glass.
For a residential window job, the number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text, so call (866) 435-6328 with those two details.
Often yes, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits, and a professional cleaning is what it takes to remove dirt that rain alone leaves on the glass.
Across California, the spring visit lands in mid to late June and the fall visit in late November to December, and residential properties usually follow the same two visits.
No. We clear the gutters and downspouts first, let the runoff stop dripping off the wall, and only then start on the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are cleaned as part of the visit.
We clean the outside of the glass only on this visit, and we do not do interior glass or pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and leave the side gate unlocked. Text a photo of the roofline if you want us to look at the gutters before we book.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
