Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs down onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than two separate trips. Across Idaho, most of our customers book this in the spring and in the fall, when the pollen and the leaves are at their worst.
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.
Our window cleaners price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Professional window cleaning on the same visit as gutter cleaning is quoted as one number, and window washing is quoted with the gutters, so the total is set before the crew arrives. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a written estimate.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to work safely, and multi-story buildings need more ladder and lift time than a single floor. Picture windows and oversized panes add time at the glass, and so does a high window count. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years come down packed with needles and leaves, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Gutters that overflow for a long time can also leave water damage at the fascia, and we will tell you if we see it. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning, and we will tell you if a spot is in that category. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Ask which cleaning solutions the crew uses near plants or pets, and we will answer that before the visit.
Here is how we get the exact number. Tell us the stories and the rough window count, and send a photo of the front of the house by text. Windows inside the house are not part of this visit, so they are not in the number, and interior and exterior glass are quoted as two separate jobs. For a house with a lot of glass, a window run that needs a boom or scissor lift is quoted separately before the visit, so there is no surprise on the day. A clean front does a lot for curb appeal, and that is why many owners book the glass and the gutters together. Ask for the written estimate before you book a date, and we will hold the number we give you.
| 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 customers in Ammon book both twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Idaho, the spring visit runs late May to June, and the fall visit is October to early November. Plenty of homeowners book these cleaning services on the same two dates every year, which keeps the regular cleanings on the calendar without anyone having to think about it.
At the spring visit we find a pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. Clean windows in spring do not stay clean for long, and residential properties with trees close to the house see the film return fastest. In the fall it is the leaf load, and on the glass it is the dust and grit that the rain has not washed off. Storm and wind seasons, the Pacific fronts that come through across Idaho, move the dates a little from year to year.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, and a house close to a busy road or a construction site all tend to load the gutters and the glass faster than the twice-a-year schedule allows. A residential window that takes sprinkler spray gets spotted faster than the rest of the house. Those are the cases where we suggest you schedule service in the middle of the year. Every window and every sill on the outside gets the same attention on each visit, so the frequency is about how fast the dirt builds up, not about the glass.
You will know the windows need it when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the 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 window cleaning services reach the outside of the glass across Ammon, and our calendar is shared with the rest of the Idaho route. Booking works the same way every time. Call (866) 435-6328 or text the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you a written estimate. Once you accept, we hold a date and call you before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. If the home is one of the condos in your building, tell us when you call, since shared gutters and common walls change the price.
The calendar is at its fullest in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop. If you want a slot in those months, book early. Outside those windows the lead time is shorter. We will tell you the lead time on the phone, so you know what to expect before you commit.
Our washing services cover the grime that builds up on exterior glass, and we clean gutters and downspouts, runoff from the roof, and remove dirt from the frames and sills as part of the same visit. We take both residential and commercial addresses on the Idaho route, so tell us which one the property is when you call.
Yes. Our crew does both, and gutters come first, glass last.
We do not give a range here. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we quote it by phone or text. If the property is residential and commercial, say so on the call and we will tell you what we can quote.
On our jobs here the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and those land on the glass whether the inside is clean or not. Picture windows show every spot first, so the outside matters even when the inside looks fine.
Across Idaho, most of our customers book in the spring, late May to June, and in the fall, October to early November. Two regular cleanings a year keep up with the pollen and the leaf drop for most homes.
No. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff is off the wall before anyone touches the panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit.
No. This visit covers the exterior only, and interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, so we do not do interior glass or pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. If you want to know which cleaning solutions touch the plants or pets around the house, ask before the visit. Call (866) 435-6328 with any other question.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
