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 the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across California, most homeowners who book us do it in spring and fall, and that is the rhythm we work to on our own jobs as well.
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 washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Window cleaning services are quoted the same way, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Washing services for the outside glass and gutters follow the same rule, and regular cleanings keep the figure lower because there is less grime to work through.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A steep roof or a third story means more time on a boom or scissor lift. A large number of window panes, or oversized picture windows, adds time on the glass. Heavy grime that has built up for years takes more passes than a light film, and that changes the time on site. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and haul. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Interior and exterior glass are two separate jobs, and the quote covers the exterior only.
Stories, window count and the condition of the gutters are what set the number. Before billing, the crew photographs each gutter run and the finished glass, so you can see what the number paid for. To get your exact number, text a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories and about how many windows face out, or call (866) 435-6328.

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.
Many homeowners here 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 the calendar. Across California, the spring visit lands in mid to late June and the fall visit in December to early January.
At each visit we look at what has built up since the last one. Pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and as paste in the gutters in the spring months, and the leaf load comes down in the fall. We use purified water, and add a mild cleaning solution only where a film has baked on. Left alone, clogged gutters can push water behind the fascia and cause water damage. Storms and wind seasons move the dates, so we book from what we see rather than a fixed calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means clogged gutters again sooner, because debris keeps coming down between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house near a busy road or a construction site collects grit faster than others. Those are the houses we check first when we set the schedule. The same scheduling logic applies to residential and commercial buildings.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze only in low sun. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. Our visit covers the outside of the house, not the windows inside, so a haze indoors is a separate job. If you are not sure whether it is time, call (866) 435-6328 and we will look at a photo with you.
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 cleaning services cover residential window cleaning and gutter cleaning across Twentynine Palms, with the same crew and the same order of work on every house. To schedule service, start with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we confirm a slot. Lead time depends on the calendar, and the two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, when our schedule fills first. We check every window on the outside, down to the sill, from ground level up to the top floor.
Professional window cleaning means purified water, a water-fed pole for upper floors and the same two-person crew on every visit. Clean glass and clear gutters also do a lot for curb appeal, and both show from the street. If you are looking for window cleaners who also do gutters, that is the job we do.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and the crew does not enter the house. If your visit lands in a busy stretch, booking early keeps you on the calendar we already set.
Our crew also works on commercial buildings, where we handle the glass and gutters of multi-story buildings on a set schedule. For homeowners, the same booking process applies to residential properties.
Yes. The same two-person crew cleans the gutters and downspouts, and the outside of the windows, in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so that dirty runoff does not land on clean panes.
The number comes from stories and window count, and we quote it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories, and we will give you a written figure.
Often yes, because the outside of a residential window carries the pollen film, dust and sprinkler spots that build up here. The same goes for condos, where the outside glass is the part people see from the street. Interior glass is a separate matter and we do not clean it on this visit.
Most of our customers here book in spring and in fall. We look at pollen and leaf build-up on each visit and set the next date from what we find.
No, because gutters go first and glass last. The run is cleared and the downspouts flushed to remove dirt before any glass gets wiped, and the wall has time to stop dripping before the glass is touched.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the exterior glass work.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do interior windows or pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
