Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters first, glass last, so the dirty water never lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Across California, most of our customers book spring and fall, and that is when we are busiest.
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 stories and approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking gutter cleaning and window washing separately. 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 from that.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a roof steep enough that the ladder needs setting carefully, a large count of oversized panes, picture windows among them, gutters not cleaned in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping, done with cleaning solutions suited to each surface, are part of the job, not extras added at the end. Our professional window cleaning crew does the glass on the same ladder setup, which is how clogged gutters and curb appeal get handled in one visit.
Across California, the cases that cost the most usually carry several of these at once. A house with clogged gutters and sprinkler spotting on the glass needs more time on the ladder than a clean single-story with a few windows. Over time, the way to get an exact number is simple: tell us the stories, give us the window count, and send a photo of the house front by text. If you are comparing window cleaners, ask each one for the stories and window count the quote is based on. Ask for a written estimate before we book a date, and you will know what the visit costs before anyone climbs. The gutters, the glass and the water that runs off a roof in winter all depend on the same details, so the quote does too.
| 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 customers here book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Regular cleanings at those two points keep the buildup from getting ahead of the job. Across California, the spring visit usually lands in mid to late June and the fall visit in late November to December. At each visit the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs into the gutters, and by fall the leaf load is what fills the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, so we look at the house before we set the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the round spots that come back a day after we leave. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the outside glass than a quiet street does. We schedule our cleaning services around these, not around a single fixed calendar, and every window on the house gets looked at on each visit.
Two signs tell you it is time. Haze you only notice when the sun is low is the glass telling you it needs cleaning. Water sheeting over the edge of the gutter in rain is the gutter telling you the same thing. Either one is a good reason to book a visit before the next season. Keeping clean windows also does more for the curb appeal of the house than most owners expect.
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 residential and commercial jobs across Temple City and the neighborhoods around it. The calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, when most of the residential window cleaning services and gutter work on residential properties is booked. Book early for those months and you will get the date you want.
To schedule service, make a short call or send a text, and one booking covers the washing services for both gutters and glass. Tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a quote and a date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but we call before we come so you know when to expect the crew. We do the outside of the windows, the gutters and downspouts, and the sills, and we leave the glass inside alone on this visit, since interior and exterior glass work is a separate job.
We also clean commercial buildings, including multi-story buildings and condos, billed per building on a schedule. For runoff problems and water damage that begin at the gutter line, the same crew clears the run before it reaches the glass. We remove dirt and grime from the glass in one pass so the windows look right the day we leave.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the water from the gutters never lands on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the number before we book.
On our jobs here, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those build up on the glass before anyone sees them from inside.
Most of our customers book in spring and fall, when the pollen and the leaves are heaviest. Across California the calendar fills in those two windows, and regular cleanings twice a year keep the glass and the gutters from building up.
Not when we do it right: gutters first, glass last. If the glass is washed first, someone has to wash it again before we leave the ladder.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the job on this visit, not extras. The screens are rinsed, the sills wiped with cleaning solutions suited to the frame, and the tracks cleaned.
We clean the outside only on this visit, and any interior and exterior glass work is priced as a separate job. We do not do pressure washing here; ask for that as a separate job too.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and text a photo of the roofline if you want us to look first.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
