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 an approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Colorado we book this bundle mostly in the spring and the fall, when the seed, pollen and leaf loads build up on the roofline and the glass.
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 stories and approximate window count, the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. What moves it on our jobs is a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a large number of oversized panes, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, guards that have to be lifted before we can reach the run, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Our washing services include downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping, and none of that is billed as an extra. Plain purified water handles most of the glass, and cleaning solutions only come out for film that water will not lift.
To get the exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or send us a text with the stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a quote before any ladder goes up. The more of the window count you can give us, including picture windows and any large panes on the back, the closer the figure will be to the invoice. Gutters that have been packed for a few seasons can take longer to clear, and we find that out on the first visit, not after.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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 Frederick customers book regular cleanings twice a year, one visit in spring and one in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on this calendar. Across Colorado the same pattern holds for most houses, though the exact dates move with the weather. On our jobs the spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutter elbows, and the fall visit catches the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs over winter.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof sends needles and grit into the downspouts between visits, and we see that most on our multi-story buildings and older two-story homes. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, so those houses are on a shorter schedule too. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass and more runoff in the runs, and those are often on three or four visits a year. Left alone, clogged gutters are where most water damage starts, so the fall visit matters more than it looks.
You will know your windows need it when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low, and your gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. Clean glass and clear runs do more for curb appeal than most owners expect. Tell us what you see from the ground and we will tell you which of those your lot needs.
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 Frederick and books the window and gutter cleaning as one job, with professional window cleaning done in the same visit. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, and we will give you a date. We handle residential and commercial work, and most of our booking is for residential properties: residential window and gutter cleaning on single-family homes, townhomes and condos. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills up in those weeks. If you can book outside those windows you will usually get a slot sooner. We clean every window on the outside of the house we visit and remove dirt from each sill as we work, so nothing gets missed on the way down the wall. Clean windows and clear gutters are the goal of every visit, and the schedule holds once you have confirmed the date.
Yes, our washing services cover both, and it is the same two people doing both in one visit. We clear the gutters and downspouts first so the runoff from the roofline never lands on glass we have already cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text before we book, so there is no surprise on the invoice.
On our Frederick jobs the outside carries most of the grime: pollen film, dust that washes down from the roof, and sprinkler spots. Interior and exterior glass collect different dirt, so cleaning one side does not touch the other.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and the fall, and across Colorado it is the same pattern, so booking one of those two windows keeps you on the calendar.
No, gutters first and glass last is the order on every job we do. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared first, the grit and black water come down and are rinsed off before we ever touch the panes. Some window cleaners do the glass first and end up cleaning the same panes twice, which is the problem we avoid.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frames are done as part of the job. Those are not extras on our invoice.
This visit is exterior only, so we do not clean windows inside the house, 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 if the windows face it, 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.
