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 doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Coeur d'Alene jobs, most customers book in the spring and in the fall, when the pollen and the leaves have built up enough to show. You get one crew, one ladder setup per side of the house, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice.
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 as separate cleanings. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Work on multi-story buildings takes more setup, so the story count matters on the call. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before anyone is booked.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a roof steep enough that we work from a boom or scissor lift, a window count with oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We clean exterior glass only on this visit, and we do not combine interior and exterior work in one price. The grime on the outside of picture windows is the most common reason the glass looks worse than it should, and the cleaning solutions we use lift it off with the rest of the job.
Two things set the number more than anything else: the stories and the window count. Both are on the phone call, so the quote matches the invoice. To get your exact number, tell us the stories and the window count, and send a photo of the front of the house by text.
| 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.
On our Coeur d'Alene jobs, most customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Each visit picks up what the season leaves behind. In the spring the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the tree litter packs the gutters; in the fall the leaf load is what causes clogged gutters and blocked downspouts. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, and we book our cleaning services around them.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or construction collects more grit on the glass than a quiet street does. Our crew works from those conditions, not from a fixed schedule, and it is common for a house with a lot of cover to be on a three-visit plan of regular cleanings with us.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and the sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain. If you see either one, book a visit; the cost of waiting is water damage to the fascia and the trim below the run. Clean glass and clear gutters are the simplest curb appeal a house can have.
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.
We clean window and gutter cleaning jobs across the city as a whole, from the older residential properties near the lake to newer homes on the bench. Booking for professional window cleaning starts with a call or a text, and the first step is the same for residential and commercial jobs: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you an estimate and a date. Lead time varies with the season, and in the two busy windows of the year, when the spring dust and the leaves come down, our calendar fills, so the sooner you call, the sooner your slot comes up. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
We clean residential properties for homeowners who want clean windows and clear gutters without a second trip. Each visit covers every window on the outside of the house, every sill and frame, and every run of gutter. Each residential window gets the same treatment, and we will schedule service around your week. If something needs more than one visit, we tell you before the first one.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and the gutter cleaning are done in one visit by the same two people, and we do the gutters first and the glass last. That order keeps the runoff from the gutters off the clean glass.
We do not give a figure on this page. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house or condo, and you get it by phone or text before anything is booked. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the same number we charge.
On the outside, the tree dust, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots are what dull the glass here, and an inside cleaning will not remove dirt from the outside. The windows inside are a separate job we do not do on this visit.
Across Idaho, spring visits usually fall in late May to June. Coeur d'Alene customers usually book the fall visit in late October to November, after the leaves come down.
Not on our jobs. We do the gutters and downspouts first, flush every downspout, then give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the glass, so nothing runs down onto the panes after they are clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and the tracks are cleaned with the frames. None of that is billed as an extra.
No. We clean exterior glass only on this visit, and we do not do interior window washing services or pressure washing. If you need those, tell us and we will point you to the right service.
No, 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. We send photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
