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 together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips.
Across Colorado, our crews keep the same spring and fall schedule that most of our customers book, because one visit each season catches what the weather leaves behind.
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 this: we price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, a bundled visit for gutters and windows costs less than two separate jobs, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes how the work gets done. A large residential window count and oversized panes take more time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is something no cleaning removes on its own. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On the phone we ask for the number of stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. With those three things we can give you an exact figure before the crew is booked, and that figure does not change when the truck arrives. The window washing and washing services we provide follow the same rule, so you know what the job costs before anyone climbs a ladder. Our window cleaning services are scoped the same way, and the regular cleanings we schedule each season keep the price predictable from one visit to the next.
Across Colorado, the houses we clean vary a lot, and so does the grime on the glass. Some picture windows take an extra pass, and the interior and exterior of the same pane is a separate question, which we are not doing on this visit. For the exterior, the most accurate number comes from knowing the stories and the count, so start there and we will confirm it within the hour.
Ready for a number? Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a figure for the gutters and downspouts and the glass together.

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 Glenwood Springs customers book both twice a year, in the spring and the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar.
In spring the glass shows the pollen film first, especially on south-facing windows, and the gutters hold pollen paste in the elbows. In fall the leaf load is what we find, and the wet leaf mat sits in the runs through the first hard weather. Pollen and sprinkler spotting respond to different cleaning solutions, so the crew checks the film before it chooses one. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates a few weeks in either direction.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters loaded through the summer. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Clogged gutters that overflow for a season can also lead to water damage on the fascia and the siding below. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grit faster than the rest. Multi-story buildings and older houses with a lot of glass fit the same pattern, and the same test applies to residential and commercial buildings alike, so we will tell you on the first visit which of those applies to you.
Two customers show the range. One has no trees and books once a year, in the late fall, and that is enough for them. Another, with trees over the roof and sprinkler spotting on the glass, is on three or four visits a year to keep the runs clear and the glass clean. No customer example is quoted here, so we are describing the pattern we see rather than a named job.
You will know the windows need it when you see haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during a 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 Glenwood Springs, and the neighborhoods we have cleaned in the area are the ones our calendar fills from. Booking starts with a phone or text estimate using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the season, and we confirm the date when the estimate is given. In the two busy windows of the year, when the spring pollen and the fall leaves arrive, the calendar fills faster, so it helps to book early.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come. Our window cleaners and our professional window cleaning crews keep the same schedule across the city, and we can schedule service around a time that suits you. The crew uses a pole and water to remove dirt from the upper panes without a ladder against the siding, and the runoff from each downspout is checked as it comes off the roof. We book condos and townhouses on the same schedule. The curb appeal of a house shows most in the glass and the gutters together, which is why every window and every run gets the same attention on the visit.
If you want to talk through a date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a slot.
Yes, our crew cleans gutters and downspouts and the outside glass on the same visit, so you deal with one team for the whole exterior.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text, not from a general figure. Residential properties of every size get a number this way.
On our Glenwood Springs jobs the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and those stay on the glass whatever the inside looks like. Cleaning only the inside leaves the outside to the weather.
Most of our customers book in the spring and the fall, and condos follow the same calendar as single-family houses.
No, we do gutters first and glass last, so the runoff from the gutters is cleared before we touch the windows.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and tracks are included in the visit when they are reachable from the outside.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so inside windows and pressure washing are not part of what we do here.
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.
