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 jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across California, most of our customers book this bundle in the spring and the fall, and we hold to the number we give on the phone at (866) 435-6328.
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 the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Doing the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit comes out less than booking the two jobs separately, and the bundle figure is shown on your quote. Each package has a starting price, but the final quote follows the house in front of us, not a template. Homeowners often ask whether a residential and commercial building gets the same quote, and it does not, since a townhouse and a retail strip carry different access costs.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are consistent. A third story or a roof too steep to walk adds time. A large window count, oversized picture windows and tall panes on upper floors add setup. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a different problem, and no cleaning removes it, so we say so on the day. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Our cleaning solutions for the glass are included in the price as well.
The cleanest way to get an exact number is to send us the stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house by text. Most of our Yorba Linda customers do this from the couch, and the crew confirms the quote before anyone books a date. Regular cleanings keep the total lower over time, since a gutter cleared twice a year carries far less grit than one left for three years. Please ask us about our package for regular cleanings if you are on a schedule. When you ask about the interior and exterior, the answer is that this quote covers the exterior only. Clean glass and clear gutters do most of the work for curb appeal on a Yorba Linda home.

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, the usual pattern is spring and fall, and most of our Yorba Linda customers book both in those seasons, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Our cleaning services are booked around those two seasons. We are on the house twice a year, once after the spring pollen drop and once after the leaves come down.
In spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass, and the grime under it forms a paste in the gutters. In fall, the leaf load arrives, and a wet mat settles into the runs. Storm and wind seasons move the dates, and when a late rain is forecast we adjust the visit so the fall run gets done before runoff from a leaf-choked gutter starts sheeting over the edge.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps putting needles and grit into the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house close to a busy road or active construction collects dust faster than a quiet street. Our professional window cleaning crew sees these patterns on the glass, and they are the reason we suggest a third slot for those homes. Window cleaners who only do the glass miss the gutter run, and that is where the leaf load gets in. Multi-story buildings and older homes with clogged gutters follow the same pattern. Left too long, clogged gutters let water spill behind the fascia and cause water damage that costs far more than a cleaning.
You will know the outside glass needs it when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low, and windows inside the house follow their own schedule. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the 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.
Our window and gutter cleaning crews work across Yorba Linda, and we schedule service around the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season, when our calendar fills first. Book early in those months if you want a specific date. Each estimate starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text where you tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we confirm the window count from that photo. Some window cleaners quote by the pane, but we count the whole house from that photo.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Our crew handles residential properties and residential window jobs as a routine part of the schedule, and we clean every window on the outside of the house, including the sill and frame, so the glass reads clean all the way around. Our window cleaning services cover every exterior window, and we make clean windows the goal of each visit. Ask for a specific date when you call, and we tell you the lead time for that slot before you commit. If the home is one of several condos on a shared roof, tell us when you call, since a shared roof and a shared gutter run change the access, and the crew confirms the quote from the photo.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters first and then the outside of the windows in one visit.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Send us those by phone or text and we give you a figure before anyone books a date.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of the grime here: pollen on the glass, rain dust, and sprinkler spotting. The inside is separate and we do not clean it on this visit.
Most of our Yorba Linda customers book in spring and fall, and the calendar fills fastest in those two windows.
No. We clear gutters and downspouts first and do the glass last, so the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall before we touch the panes. Gutter runoff from a clogged run is what streaks the wall below, so the glass is done once, at the end.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job. Screen rinsing is how we remove dirt from the mesh before it dries on the frame. Tracks are included on the same visit and are not billed as an extra.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Our exterior visit does not include the windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off, 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.
