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 done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Our crew has been doing this work across California for years, and most of our Sunnyvale customers book it for the spring and fall cleaning, when dust and leaves are heaviest. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote based on your stories and a rough window count.
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, the approximate window count, and whether there are picture windows. Booking both in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge. Our washing services price regular cleanings the same way as a first visit, from the same stories and window count.
On our jobs, a handful of things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof that we cannot walk adds time. A large window count or oversized panes take longer on the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before any flushing starts. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is something cleaning will not remove, and cleaning solutions alone will not lift it, so we note it on the visit. Gutters and downspouts are cleared as part of the job, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are not billed as extras.
Our window and gutter cleaning work across California follows the same logic. The fastest way to get an exact number is to tell us the stories, give us a rough window count, and text a photo of the front of the house. Pollen film on the glass and paste in the gutters are common in spring, so we check those first when we arrive. We do not do pressure washing on this visit. If you also want the windows inside done, tell us up front, since interior and exterior glass work is quoted separately. We are happy to give you an exact number once we know the house.

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 Sunnyvale customers book both services twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why the same window cleaners can clear the gutters and do the glass in one visit instead of two bookings. Twice-a-year cleanings are the common pattern here. On our jobs, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the paste in the gutters is the main thing we find each spring, and the leaf load is what we find each fall.
Some houses and condos need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, and multi-story buildings with gutters high off the ground, put needles and grit into the downspouts faster than twice a year can keep up with, so those customers are on every three to four months. Runoff from clogged gutters that overflow can lead to water damage at the fascia and soffit, which is why we check the runs on every visit. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and we handle those with a separate treatment. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up grime that builds up between visits, and it wears down curb appeal faster than most owners expect.
The sign that you are due for professional window cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in the rain, which usually means the run is clogged and the water has nowhere else to go.
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 residential properties across Sunnyvale, including condos. Questions about residential and commercial properties can come to the same number, and we will say straight away whether the job fits our visit. We count every window we can reach from the ground or a pole, and a residential window that needs more than that gets flagged on the phone. Booking is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you a price and the earliest date we have open. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but we call before we come. The goal on every visit is to remove dirt from the glass and frames so the windows dry without streaks, and the same crew handles the cleaning services for the gutters too.
The busy windows of the year are spring and fall, when the calendar fills fastest. If you want to schedule service in those months, it helps to reach out early. Outside those windows, we can usually find a date more quickly. Whatever the timing, we will confirm the appointment before the crew arrives so you know when to expect us.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do both on the same visit, clearing the gutters and downspouts first and finishing with the glass so nothing runs back onto clean windows.
Our washing services are priced on the stories and the window count, and we give the exact figure by phone or text after we know those details.
The outside carries grime, rain dust and sprinkler spots, which build up quickly here, so it often needs cleaning even when the windows inside look fine.
Most of our customers book in spring and fall, when dust and leaves are heaviest, though condos and houses can be scheduled at other times too.
No. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff is gone before we touch the windows.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped to remove dirt, and tracks are part of the visit. None of it is billed as an extra.
Not on this visit. We do exterior glass only, and we will tell you if a job needs something different.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
