Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price by the number of stories, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Yucca Valley jobs, most customers book this in the spring and in the fall, when the pollen and the leaves have done their damage. We will tell you what to expect 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.
The direct answer is that window washing is priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Most window cleaners who quote by the job ask the same two questions first. Professional window cleaning works the same way for us: the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Your quote is built from those inputs, so call (866) 435-6328 or text your story count and a rough window total.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes that need more time per pane. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years are packed with needles and leaves, and clogged gutters that overflow can cause water damage to fascia and siding, and they take more hands to clear than a light run. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run underneath, 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, not billed as extras, and the glass is done with purified water, not cleaning solutions. Windows inside the house are a separate job and are not in this quote.
Large picture windows on the south side of the house, or a run of gutters that has not been opened in years, change the time on the roof and the ladder, so tell us about both when you book. Clean glass and clear gutters do most of the curb appeal work on a house, and that is the result we price for. For an exact figure, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house with your story count and window count.

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 gutters and exterior windows twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for a home like yours. Regular cleanings twice a year suit most residential window jobs. Across California the spring visit falls in mid to late June, and on our Yucca Valley jobs the fall visit falls in late November to December, the two windows when the seasons leave the most on the house.
What we find at each visit follows the calendar. In the spring we see the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters, and the downspout elbows pack up quickly. In the fall the leaf load builds on the roof and runs into the gutters. Across California, atmospheric rivers deliver most of the year's rain in a handful of days, and Yucca Valley gets about 6.3 inches a year, with the wettest months in January, February and December, so a clogged gutter has very little room to handle it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof sends needles and grit into the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves round spots that come back a day after cleaning, because the mineral is in the water. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust on the frames faster than a quiet street. If your house is one of these, we will say so on the first visit and suggest a schedule that fits.
Two signs tell you it is time without a calendar. Windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout.
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 has cleaned gutters and windows across Yucca Valley, and we book by phone or text at (866) 435-6328. Send us your story count and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm a window and call before we come. Lead time depends on the season, and the busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, when our calendar fills first. Book early in those months if you want a specific day.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, so you can keep your schedule. We call before we arrive, and we send photos of the finished runs when we leave.
Our crew works on residential properties, and our residential and commercial jobs follow the same set order: gutters first, glass last, so the washing services we provide leave clean windows without runoff from the gutters. The cleaning services cover the outside of every window on the house, the sill, the frame and the screen, and the gutters and downspouts get flushed so water runs out. Our window cleaning services follow that order on every job. We remove dirt and grime that builds up in the tracks, and we schedule service around the weather so the glass dries properly.
We also take on condos and multi-story buildings in the area, and we quote each one by its own story count and window total.
Yes, and it is the same crew. Our two people clean the gutters first and then the outside of the glass, which is why one visit covers both.
The number comes from your stories and window count, and we give it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of your house with your window total and we will confirm the figure.
The outside takes the most on a Yucca Valley house, from pollen, dust and sprinkler spots, so the outside can look dirty even when the inside is clean.
Across California most customers book the spring visit in mid to late June, and here the fall visit falls in late November to December.
No, that is why we do gutters first and glass last. If the glass is washed first, the water from the gutters runs down over it again.
They are part of the job, and we use no cleaning solutions on the glass, only purified water. We rinse the screens, wipe the sills and clear the tracks as we go.
Not on this visit. We clean the outside of the glass only, and the windows inside the house are a separate job, so the interior and exterior work is never on one price. We do no pressure washing either.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers, move your car off the driveway, and keep your pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
