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. Across Colorado, most homeowners book this in spring and fall, and we run the same routine on every house we work.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle of washing services done in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the glass as two separate jobs. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and your quote comes from the house itself.
Four things move the quote on the day. Multi-story buildings, a third story in particular, and a roof too steep to walk take longer on the ladder and the lift. Window count and oversized picture windows change the time spent at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take a longer clearing. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are added by the foot. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with a regular cleaning, and we tell you so before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across Colorado, most of our window washing work is exterior glass on houses that have a lot of grime from dust and tree residue, and a regular cleanings schedule keeps the cost predictable year to year. Every quote says what is in scope, and this visit is exterior glass, not interior and exterior work. To get an exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or send a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will call back with the figure. That is the number you will see on the invoice.

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 Colorado, most of our customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. On our jobs the spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the clogged gutters full of seed and leaves, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before the first hard freeze.
Heavy tree cover over the roof or a sprinkler line hitting the glass changes the schedule. The spots that return a day after cleaning are mineral, not dirt, and a house near a busy road or construction collects more residue between visits. Those houses need a third visit, and we tell you that after the first look.
The sign that windows need cleaning sooner is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout, and that is where water damage starts.
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.
Booking is simple. Send a text or call (866) 435-6328 with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we send an estimate. Lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the next open slot when you call. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, so an early call keeps the date you want. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our crews handle professional window cleaning services and gutter cleaning for residential properties across the city, and our window cleaners work from the ground and from a boom or scissor lift on taller houses. We schedule service with the homeowner directly, and every residential window is cleaned from the outside to remove dirt and film, with the sill wiped and the frame checked. Glass is done with purified water and mild cleaning solutions. Good curb appeal starts with clean glass and clear gutters, and both are part of one visit.
Yes. The same two people do both, and they clear gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. Clearing a gutter throws grit down the wall, so the glass is done once the runs are finished.
The number comes from stories and window count, and you get it by phone or text before we book.
On our jobs the outside carries most of the buildup here: dust after rain and sprinkler spotting. Cleaning the glass from outside removes what the rain leaves behind.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, which is when pollen and leaves build up. Across Colorado the pattern is the same.
No, because the gutters go first and the glass goes last. The runoff from a cleared run runs down the wall and across any window below it, so the order matters. The same order applies to residential and commercial buildings, since water runs off both the same way.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and frames are cleaned as part of the visit. They are not billed separately. Quotes for condos work the same way, by stories and window count.
Cleaning windows inside is not part of this visit; we do exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway and keep pets inside while the ladders are up, then leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
