Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Across California, most of our customers book this bundle in spring and fall, and we are the crew you hear from before work starts.
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 exterior window cleaning and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with your window count, and we will book a date that works for you. What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that cannot be walked, a large number of oversized 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. Cleaning the gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We price the exterior only. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and the inside of the house is not bundled into this quote.
Our crew works from the stories and window count you give us, plus a photo of the front of the house sent by text, so we can see the roofline before we call back. Across California, a house with the same stories and glass can still take a different amount of time once a gutter run is full of wet grit, and we say so on the estimate rather than after the ladder is up. Regular cleanings keep the job quick, because a gutter cleaned every visit holds less grime than one left for a year. Water does most of the work on the glass, and cleaning solutions come out only where grime will not lift with water alone. We give window washing services, and our window cleaning services run on the same ladder setup we use for the gutters, which keeps the bundle price fair.
| 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 Spring Valley Lake customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both. In spring the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutter elbows are the first things we see, and in fall the leaf load from the year is the one that matters. Clogged gutters are the first thing we check at either visit, since water that overflows runs down the wall and can start water damage at the fascia. Storms and wind seasons move the dates, so we book by what we find, not the calendar.
The houses that need a third visit are the ones with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass (the spots that come back a day later), or a house close to a busy road or construction. Gutters under those conditions pack faster, and the glass shows haze within weeks, which is why we book those lots on a shorter schedule. You will know windows need a visit when the haze shows only in low sun, and gutters need one when water sheets over the edge in rain.
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 do residential and commercial exterior work across the area, and our cleaning services are scheduled by the number of stories and the window count you send us. Multi-story buildings are priced by stories, the same way as a two-story house, and condos are quoted by their window count and roofline. Book by phone or by text, with a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the lead time for your address. In the two busy windows of the year, our calendar fills, so the earlier you call the sooner we can schedule service. Our window cleaners work from a professional window cleaning setup, and they remove dirt from every window on the outside of the house and wipe the sill beneath it. Clean glass and clear gutters are the quickest curb appeal a house can get.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
Yes. Window and gutter cleaning is one visit: the same two people clean the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the windows, gutters first and glass last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and condos are quoted the same way, by stories and window count. Text us the stories and a photo of the front, or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the exact figure.
On the outside, the glass on each residential window carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting, and those are the things that cloud a window even when the inside is clean. Inside glass is a separate job, and windows inside the house are not cleaned on this visit.
Across California our customers book in spring and fall. In Spring Valley Lake, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest is when the calendar fills, so the earlier you call the better.
No. We do gutters first and glass last, so any runoff from the gutters comes down before any window is touched, along with the leaves and grit.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the visit, and none of it is billed as an extra.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Interior glass and pressure washing are not part of this job, and we will say so on the estimate.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, 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.
