Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the dirty runoff never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and both services booked together in one visit cost less than two separate trips. Our crew has been doing this work on Highlands Ranch homes for spring and fall visits, and we keep the same order on every house.
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. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge, so tell us the stories and the window count when you call at (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
On the day, the quote moves for a few reasons we see every week: a third story, multi-story buildings with a roof too steep to walk, oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles, leaves and grime, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Window washing on the outside is the bulk of most bundled jobs, and interior and exterior glass are priced separately because we only do the outside on this visit. Windows inside the house are a separate quote. Washing services for a whole house are quoted from the window count, not from a flat rate, so a house with many small panes and one with a few large picture windows can land in different places. Our Highlands Ranch crew also keeps regular cleanings on the calendar for customers who want the same schedule every year, which lowers the per-visit cost on the next booking. Clean glass does a lot for curb appeal, and the crew checks every window before the quote is final.
For a number you can trust, the cleanest route is to send the stories, the approximate window count and a photo of the front of the house by text. We review it and quote the bundled visit before anyone is scheduled, so nothing about the price changes on the ladder.
| 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 Highlands Ranch customers book both services twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Colorado, the spring visit falls in late May to June and clears what winter left, and the fall visit in October or early November clears what the trees drop before the first hard freeze.
In spring the window and gutter work is about pollen. The pollen film on a residential window facing south and the pollen paste packed in the gutters both build through the season, and by the time we are on the ladder in June the elbows of the downspouts are full. In fall it is the wet leaf mat that matters. On houses that skipped the fall visit we often find clogged gutters that sagged under ice by the next spring, and water damage starts where those runs overflow onto the siding. The cleaning solutions we use on the frames are mild, and the glass only gets purified water. Hail season across Colorado moves the dates a little, so we book against the calendar, not a fixed day.
Some houses need a third visit. The same logic applies to residential and commercial buildings, where tree cover and road grit set the frequency more than the building type does. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between visits, a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later, and a house near a busy road or construction collects grit on the sill. Those houses are on every three to four months, and the crew tells you which of those your lot needs after the first visit.
You will know the windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge during 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 Highlands Ranch and nearby Front Range towns. A phone call or text with your stories and a photo of the house front gets things started. We give you the bundled quote and a date from the same conversation, so the estimate is not a second step. Lead time follows the calendar, and the two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visit months, when our booking fills first.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our window cleaners work from the outside of the house and do not come inside, so an unlocked side gate and pets kept indoors are all we ask. Our professional window cleaning services are built around one visit per house, and that keeps the schedule short for you. To schedule service in a busy window, call (866) 435-6328 early and we will tell you what is open before you commit.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do the gutters first and the glass last on every house, so the runoff from the gutters never lands on the clean panes. Our quote works the same for condos: send the stories and window count for your unit.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send the stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote the bundled visit. The same count-based method applies to residential properties of any size.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting that the inside never sees. On a residential window the grime that builds up outside through spring and fall does not come off with an indoor cleaning, and an outside wash is how you remove dirt that rain leaves behind.
Most of our customers here book in late May or June for the spring visit and again in October or early November for the fall visit.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the leaves, the grit and the black water are cleared and flushed before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included on the outside of the house.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do interior glass or pressure washing here.
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.
