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. We have done this work across Colorado for years, and most of the Clifton homes we clean are booked for spring and fall.
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.

What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. A high window count, and picture windows with oversized panes, adds time at the glass. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take more hands, and an overflow can cause water damage at the fascia. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are priced separately on the phone. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes, so we flag it before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a typical Clifton job, the house tells us most of what we need. Send a photo of the front of the house by text, and tell us the stories and roughly how many windows you have, and we can give you a number before a truck is booked. Our crew has cleaned gutters and glass on houses with a mix of trees, sprinklers and road grime, and the count rarely changes once we are up the ladder. Ask for the window and gutter bundle, and we will show you the line items. We also do residential and commercial work, and our residential window jobs are quoted the same way, so if you manage a rental, a set of condos or a small office, the same crew can quote it. Our cleanings include both gutters and exterior glass, and we can add regular cleanings on a set schedule so water stains don't build up between visits. Where a film needs more than water, we use mild cleaning solutions. Interior and exterior glass is a different job, and we only do the outside on this visit.

|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |

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 Clifton customers book both gutters and exterior windows twice a year, and our cleaning services are set up for that as one visit. Across Colorado, the spring visit runs late May to June, and the fall visit runs late October to November.
In spring, the pollen film sits on the south-facing glass, and clogged gutters start when the pollen paste packs into the runs. In fall, the leaf load comes down and the wet mat sits in the runs until the first hard weather. Storm and hail seasons across Colorado dent gutters and wash shingle grit into the runs, and the runoff carries that grit down the wall onto the glass below, so a spring visit after a storm is often the one that matters most.
Some houses, and some multi-story buildings, need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters and downspouts, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets dust on the frames faster than a quiet street. We will tell you after the first visit which of these your house has.
Windows tell you when they need it: haze shows up when the sun is low and the glass looks dull at the edges, and that hurts curb appeal. Gutters tell you when they need it: water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the spring or fall date, or text a photo of the roofline and we will say which visit your house needs first.
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.
We schedule service in Clifton as a window and gutter cleaning job, one crew, one visit. Booking starts with a phone or text estimate for professional window cleaning, using your stories and a photo of the house front. Once we have that, we give you the lead time for your area and the date we can come out.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside only, so windows inside stay as they are, and we call before we come. The two busy windows are spring and fall, when the leaves and grit arrive, and our calendar fills faster in those weeks. If you want a slot in those months, book early.
Our window cleaning services cover residential properties and commercial buildings, and the crew treats every window on the outside of the building the same way. Every window gets the same purified-water rinse, and every sill gets wiped. The goal is clean windows and clear gutters on the same day, with photos of both sent to you before the crew leaves. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline to start.
Yes. Our washing services include the gutters and the outside glass, done by the same two people in one visit, gutters first and glass last. Doing both at once means one setup and one trip.
The number comes from your stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. Send a photo of the house front and we will tell you the number before anyone books a truck.
On our Clifton jobs the outside carries most of the grime: rain dust, sprinkler spots and the runoff from the roof. Outside cleaning alone is enough to remove dirt the sun shows you, and the inside can wait.
Across Colorado, spring visits run late May to June and fall visits run late October to November, which are the windows when leaves and grit build up in the runs.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When the runs are cleared and flushed, the wall has time to stop dripping before we touch the windows, so the grit does not run back across them.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside, and we tell you before we start if one needs more time.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing on this job.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the 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.
