Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the 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 two separate trips. Across California, most of our customers book this twice a year, in spring and in fall, and we are happy to give you the number on the phone before anyone climbs a ladder.
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 the number of stories and the approximate window count, and window washing done in the same visit as the gutters costs less than two jobs booked separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes how long the gutters take. Window count matters, and so do picture windows too large to reach from a ladder, which need a boom or scissor lift. Clogged gutters, the ones that have not been cleared in years and are packed with needles and leaves, take longer. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are part of the quote. Grime comes off with cleaning, but hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line does not, and we tell you that before we start. The gutters and downspouts are part of the same quote, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are not billed as extras. Regular cleanings are quoted the same way each time, from the stories and window count, and condos are quoted the same way as a single house.
On our jobs the fastest way to get an exact number is to text us a photo of the front of the house with your stories and a rough window count. Washing services for a house like this start with those two numbers. Across California, the houses that surprise us are the ones where the back run is hard to reach, so say so up front. The quote covers the exterior of the glass, so interior and exterior work is a different conversation, and we say so on the phone. Most customers get a written estimate the same day they call, and it matches the invoice. If you want a figure for your own street, call (866) 435-6328 or text the photo and we will reply with the number.

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 cleaning twice a year, in spring and in fall, and one crew in one visit is what makes that practical. Spring is when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste sits in the gutters. Fall brings the leaf load and the runoff it sends down the wall, plus the wet mat that sags under winter rain. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we check the roofline before we confirm a slot, since a backed-up run in a storm is one of the ways water damage gets into the fascia.
Some houses need more cleanings than two a year, and we say so after the first one. Heavy tree cover over the roof means clogged gutters fill with needles and grit between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more haze on the outside pane. In those cases our crew plans three or four visits a year rather than two.
You will know the glass needs it when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low, and haze on the windows inside the house is not something an outside visit fixes. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout. Our crew checks both on every visit and sends photos of each run, so the schedule follows what we see. Regular visits are what remove dirt from the glass before it bakes on, and between visits keep the cleaning solutions off the sill and the frame, since they can leave a residue of their own.
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 across West Hollywood, and the calendar is the thing to plan around. To schedule service, text or call with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm a slot with a two-hour arrival window. Lead time depends on the season, and the two busy windows are the spring and fall visits, when our calendar fills first. If you want a particular week, ask for it when you call.
We are one of the professional window cleaning crews that handles window cleaning services and gutter work in one visit, which is the reason most homeowners here use one company instead of two. Some window cleaners stop at the glass, so the gutters end up a separate booking, and we do both. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come, so you will not find a ladder against the wall without warning. The crew checks every window on the front and sides, and clean gutters and glass do a lot for curb appeal from the street. We take on residential and commercial work, and residential properties are booked the same way as the rest, with each residential window counted on the same quote. For multi-story buildings we schedule the crew per building. Ask about your schedule before you book, because a fixed date is easier to hold than a flexible one.
Yes. The same two people do both on one visit: the gutters and downspouts first, the glass last, so nothing from the gutters washes onto the clean glass.
The number comes from stories and window count, and condos are quoted the same way as a single house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will quote it.
Yes, because the outside of each residential window carries the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Regular visits are what remove dirt from the outside pane before it builds up. Glass can look clean inside and still show haze when the sun is low.
Our customers here usually book in spring and in fall. Across California the same two windows apply, and the calendar fills first in those months.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. The leaves, grit and black runoff come down the wall during the gutter run, so the glass waits until the wall stops dripping.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and frames are cleaned as part of the job, which is how we remove dirt that would otherwise wash back onto the glass. Tracks are included in the visit, and nothing is billed as a separate extra.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do inside windows or pressure washing here.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
