The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Most of our Castle Pines customers book the spring and fall visits, which is why we keep one crew on the calendar for both. Call (866) 435-6328 to get your quote.
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 bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Professional window cleaning on our jobs is priced on the exterior glass, so windows inside the house are not part of the number we give you. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice, so give us your story count and a rough count of windows when you call at (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the ones the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that has to be worked from a boom or scissor lift, oversized panes and picture windows that take longer per pane, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and come down packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our Castle Pines jobs are a good example of how the quote gets built. We look at the stories and the window count first, then at what the gutters look like after the roofline is cleared, because clogged gutters that have sat through a summer of storms are the most common reason a quote moves. Water damage from an overflowing run is something we report when we see it, but it is not something we fix on this visit. When the house has a lot of glass or several multi-story buildings worth of curb appeal to protect, the window washing takes the longer half of the day, and we say that before we start rather than after. Send a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you where it falls.

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 Castle Pines customers book both jobs twice a year, in the late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the bundle. To schedule service for both, book the two visits together so the crew can work the gutters and glass in one trip. The spring visit clears the seed that has packed the downspout elbows, and it cleans the pollen film off south-facing glass. The fall visit clears the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs before the first hard freeze.
Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction changes the schedule. Those houses tend to need a third visit, because the spots that come back a day after cleaning are usually sprinkler minerals and the grit keeps packing the runs between visits. A residential window that sees that kind of traffic needs more attention than a sheltered one.
Our window cleaning services follow that same spring and fall calendar as the gutter work. Every window on the house goes on the same schedule, because the sill and the frame collect the same dust as the pane. We do not clean the glass and skip the sill. The sign windows need it is haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon. The sign gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a light rain instead of running down 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 works across Castle Pines and sends you the estimate by phone or text once you give us the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year, when spring seed and the leaf drop fill the schedule, we give you the first open date and hold it until you confirm. We call before we come, so you will have a time window in hand before the truck pulls up.
Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. The crew stays outside, and we send a photo of each gutter run and the finished glass before we leave. Our window cleaning services cover residential properties, and commercial clients with multi-building sites and condos get the same process on a set schedule. The crew handles the gutters and downspouts and the runoff at the base of the walls the same way every visit.
Our crew does not leave until the gutters are open, the downspouts run through, and the glass has dried without streaks from purified water. Grime on the sill and frame comes off in the same pass as the glass. Remove dirt from the frame and the screen, and the washing services we offer cover the whole house rather than only the side you see from the street.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two people in one visit. We clear the gutters first and wash the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto clean windows.
We give you the number by phone or text once we know the stories and the approximate window count. The number we quote is the number on the invoice, and we do not guess from the street.
Yes, the outside carries the pollen film in spring, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, which the inside never sees. Two cleanings a year, one in spring and one in fall, are what change how the glass looks from the street.
Most of our Castle Pines customers book regular cleanings in late spring and again in the fall. We schedule residential and commercial jobs on the same calendar, and those two windows are when seed and leaves build up enough to matter, so booking early keeps the slot you want.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When the runs are cleared and flushed and the wall has stopped dripping, the windows get washed without anything dirty running across them.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frame is cleaned as part of the exterior window washing. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so the glass dries without soap film, and none of it is billed as an extra on this visit.
We do exterior glass only on this visit. Interior and exterior work are separate jobs, so the crew stays outside, and we do not do pressure washing, so the job ends at the frame.
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 the 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.
